THE STAR ROUTE CASES.
A Continuation Of the Testimony for the
Prosecution.

WASHINGTON, June IL.
In the star route cases this forenoon. Will
son. formerly journal clerk of the postoffice,
aid c. W. Morgan, his successor, were ex.
amined. H. d. Norton, chief officer of the
division of the postoffice department, describ-
ed the methods of preparing and signing
postal warrants under the past and present
administration. The witress was cross-ex-
amined by the defence, and at its conclusion
IngersOll exclaimed: 'Bring us another wit
ness just like this one.''
Mr.. Kerr then presented copy of the ap-
preparation bill of 1879, making an appro-
priation of two million dollars for a def
cheney in the star route services, and it was
put in evidence,
Inspector Woodward was placed on the
stand, and identified several papers from the
files of the department taken by him. and
which he said had been kept without change
while in his custody. Very few persons had
handled the papers, and no newspaper man
had ever seen them or written an article in
his room since he had taken possession OF
them.
Merrick then offered the papers in evidence.
ssying that he intended to present during the
trial all papers on file in the department re-
ferring in any way to these contracts.
long argument ensued upon the admissi-
bility of these papers, but the court ruled
they could be admitted, and the defence
noted an exception.
Brewer, clerk in the department, recalled,
and stated that Mr.. Root, correspondent OF
the New York Times, had been in his room
several times and examined the papers. He
had been introduced by Judge Riley, another
emplOye, who said that Postmaster General
James directed that Root should be allowed
access to the files
Merrick then proceeded with the introduc-
tion of the papers, the defence making several
objections, which were overruled.

Mr. Belmont, to whom was referred the
joint resolution recently introduced by Mr..
Flower. authorizing the President to call
an international conference to fix COM
mon prime meridian for the regulation of
time throughout the world, Friday sub
mitted a report to the full committee, in
which he says that there is at present no
common and accepted standard for the
computation of time for other than astro-
nomical purposes; that in the absence of
such an agreement serious embarrassment
is felt in the ordinary affairs of modern
commerce, especially since the wide
spread extension of telegraphic COM
munication and railway transporta-
ton; that navigators, geographers.
and all who have occasion to use
charts or maps are put to the greatest in
convenience; that an international agree
ment on this subject is demanded more
imperatively every day. both by science
and by trade: that the United States Gov
ernment has adopted the Greenwich me-
ridian for nautical purposes by the
establishment of the meteorologi-
cal bureau; that signal service system.

the adoption of the standard of Z :35 A..

ing telegraphic reports from all stations !;
and that the observations on our naval
vessels are made at the same hour of

as follows:

tions have been discussed in this country and

ti6c societies, and the necessity for an inter-

the following declaration: Egypt now looks
on the Khedive, Tewfik Pacha, rs its most
deadly eIemy. She is determined not to let
ANYTHING deter her from continuing to defend
her holy cause, and if necessary we will pro-
claim a holy war. The treats Of foreigners
do not dfunt US, we regard them as vain.
They merely make a friendly solution of the
crisis impossible. for the khedive supported
by the foreigners. wishes to expel the repre-
sentatives and true friends of his people.
Egypt abhors war. but will defend her
liberty with arms unto the death. l myself
am ready to put myself at the head of my
countrymen. The Khedive is seeking for
help from the foreigners in order to preserve
his throne, no matter even should the
| foreigner lay hold of the country. Egypt
will resist and be invincible. We shall pro-
claim holy war and enkindle, if we must, a
fire which shall put the world in fiames.'
