VIRGINIA ELECTION FRAUDS.

What DezendOrf Wants Malone to Tell.
RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 6.-Among the
witnesses before the United States Court
to-day in the alleged election fraud cases,
was Hon. J. f. DezendOrf, member of
Congress from the Second Virginia dis
trict, who in reply to questions propOund-
ed by District Attorney John S. Wise.
ttated that he knew of no frauds of his
own personal knowledge, but would re-
spectfully refer the District Attorney to a
letter that he (DezendOrf) had written
him. The District Attorney stated that
he had not received the letter and would
be glad to have the names of any parties.
who could furnish information as to
frauds. DeZendOrf offered to read a copy
Of his letter but the District Attorney said
it was not necessary. Dezendorf then
asked to have summoned Gen. VIM. Ma
hone, Jas. ID. Brady, Collector of Internal
Revenue at Petersburg, 5. Brown Allen,
First Auditor of Virginia, and the County
Treasurers and Collectors of Delinquent
Faxes i'll his { the Second Congressional
district, In his letter, which is given for
publication, he states his reason at length
for wishing these parties summoned He
wishes Gen. Malone to testify as to the
amount of money collected from clerks
and other government employees in
the departments at Washington, and
from officehOlders, State and Federal,
in Virginia. Also, the amount received
from the Republican Congressional EX-
ecutiye Committee at Washington giving
the manner in which the sum so received
by him, or by the committee of which he
was Chairman, was expended; whether
or not the Federal patronage in Vir-
ginia is now and has been since
the 18th of September, 1881, under
his sole control, and whether he has
not used such patronage to intimidate
Federal OfficehOlders by the removal of the
Republicans and compelling others to fall
into line under a penalty of removal from
office in case they neglected or refused to
sustain the Readjuster movement. OF

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. "a special from
Baton Rouge says: "The Governor, after
a patient and exhaustive examination of
the law and facts in KeIlogg's case. has
given certificate to Kellogg in accord
ance with the returns of the Third dis
trict.''
The Times Democrat this morning pub
fishes the following: ''GOv. McEnery's
action in relation to the Third district has
been grossly misrepresented, He has
been charged with refusing a certificate to
Kellogg, when, in fact, the Governor. upon
receipt of Acklen's protest raising the
question of Kellogg's eligibility, merely
suspended action TO allow Kellogg to
present his statement of the law and facts.
which was done on Monday, and on Tues
day certificate was issued to Kellogg.
The question was raised one week ago and

LYING FOR THE PRESS.
Judge Wylie's Onslaught on JourAa


lists.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-The effort to Sc
cure a grand jury for the Criminal Court
is still attended with difficulty, Two
members were lacking, Two names were
drawn to-day, and upon summOning the
persons one proved to be a paralytic and
the other woman. Later in the day the
jury was completed, and Judge Wvlie de-
livered his charge, in which he paid his
respects to the newspapers. He said he
was not aware of any particular form of
crime prevalent in the community
except of libels and ISLANDERS that
were common. The newspapers were
constantly containing scandalous libels
on public men and on private character.
That was a species of Offenses that created
more unhappiness and misery in society.
and did more injustice than any other
form of crime, and blasted regulations,
destroyed the peace and happiness of
families, and created dissensiOns between
husband and wife, and all, probably, in a
| lle-a printed lie-becauSe most people
| thought there was something in a lie
which was printed that made it more
credible than If ii were merely spoken.
He rather suspected that writer's for peri
odicals and newspapers had among them
more than the usual proportion of liars.
satiOnal a lie was, and the more calculated
it was to blast the peace of families, and
the more speciOus it was, the more the
paper would sell, and newspaper men
would laugh in derisiOn at anybody who
undertook to talk to them seriously about
the injustice of thing of that kind.
If the grand jury should find anything
of that sort and would take notice of it,
the court would take care of it with a
petit jury. He disclaimed any wish to
disparage any calling or pursuit, particu-
larly one embracing so many men OF in
! telligence. He knew that there were
men of integrity and honesty connected
with the newspapers, who entertained and
cherished honorable and Christian senti-
ments, and he thought, ON the whole, that
there was an improvement going on in
that respect. If the public would cease
to topatronize such papers as he alluded to,
such low vice and crime would soon
