The Star Reuters.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The extension OF
ten days, granted by Judge Wylie in tie
Star route cases, to enable the government
officers to secure the arrest OF John w.
Dorsey, expired to-day. When the court
opened Il deputy marshal made return to
the warrants that he had been unable to
iind Dorsey. Mr.. Merrick, of counsel for
the government, said that warrants for
Dorsey had been sent to New York, Yer
mont and Texas without effect
Judge Wyiie directed the crier to call Dor
sey's name. When this was done one of
his counsel arose and said Dorsey was in
court and had been in the city for ten days.
He added that it had been DOrSey's lnten-
ton from the first to attend when wanted;
and after filing motions in his case similar
to those filed in Others, Dorsey was ar
ragDed and, waving the reading of the in
dictment, pleaded not guilty. Merrick said
the government was ready to proceed, but
stated to the court that the grand jury was
nov considering the Reidell case. He said
that if Rsidell was not tried with the other
defendants it would necessitate another
trial in his case. This was to be avoided,
he thought, and he submitted the mat
ter to the judgment of the court,
adding that ten days would
probably give time for the grand
jury to indict Reidell. Judge Wylie
thought the position taken by the govern.
ment was a proper one, and he would
therefore adjourn hearing until Thursday
next, May g As counsel were leaving the
courtroom, Judge Wylie remarked to the
marshal that he was responsible for the
person of John w. Dorsey, who had not yet
filled his bond. Bail in his case had been
fixed at $4,000, which was given later in
the afternoon.
