THE STAR ROUTE TRIALS.
Mr.. MerrIck Continues His Argu.
ment.

WASHINGTON. August 25-In the star
route cases to-day Mr.. Merrick continued
his argument and cited a number of au-
thorities in support Of the legal propo-
sitions laid down by him Yesterday.
He then took up the Dorseys' case
and endeavored to show that
J. W. Dorsey, whom the defense called q
"Christian gentleman" had been guilty Of
the most hagrant acts of perjury. 8. w.
Dorsey had been the centre figure and prin-
eIpal supporter Of the conspiracy, although
he kept himself as far as possible concealed,
and did business, to use the words of wit
ness Boone, 'on graveyard principles"
Mr.. Merrick reviewed In detail the his
tory Of the relations of these men and the
other indicted contractors with Brady and
with one another, to show that they had a
common interest and worked together to
defraud the government. An incidental
reference by Mr.. Merrick to the fact that
only one of the defendants had been put on
the stand in self defense, brought on q
sharp controversy between court and coun-
sci, as to the admissibility of such remarks.
Mr.. Merrick was finally admonished, but
said he would argue the question at the
proper time.
Continuing his review be said the con-
spiracy did not end when these men di-
vided up the routes between them, because
1t had been shown that they interchanged
routes and acted fer one another as circum-
stances required. He read letters from
Dorsey to Anthony Joseph, requesting the
latter to get up petition in q variety of
handwritings for expedition, and said
they showed fraudulent intent.
Mr.. Merrick then dwelt upon
the necessity Of regarding productiveness
as the primary consideration in the expedi-
tion of star routes. and said Brady had per-
sistently dsregarded it. He insisted with
emphasis that the expedition of service on
the Ojo Caliento route was a patent fraud
on its face, for which the officers who or
dered 1t should be sent to the penitentiary.
At three O'Clock, pending the conclusion
of Mr.. Merrick's argument, the court ad-
iOurned.
