THE STAR ROUTES.
The Government Counsel Refuse to ForeGo

The Government Counsel Refuse to Forego
the Argument-BIiss Addresses the Jury
for the Prosecution.
WASHINGTON, April 90.-When the star
route opened to-day Ingersoll announced
that ne was willing to submit the case to the
jury for the Dorseys, provided the govern
ment counsel would agree to proceed no fur
Their with the argument. The Court then
wished to hear from the government. Mer-
rick answered that the government has not
yet concluded opening the case. 'That is
enough" said Judge Wiley, and Bliss be-
gan his address to the jury.
He declared the defense had failed to
produce any witnesses to contradict those
called by the government. He believed
tho court would instruct the jury that de-
Lsudants withheld evidence in their poses
sion. 1t was the duty of the jury to infer
mat these books and documents would
provo facts unfavorable to the persons who
held them. The government had not been
able to get books, as tie excuse was made
that they did not wish tue government to
pry into affairs not connected with the case.
1t was shame, and they knew it. Why
should they fear to submit the index books
to the government, unless they were
ashamed of their connection with the per-
sons named in it, or perhaps they knew the
index would reveal a missing letter, and
the letter be put in evidence by the gov
eminent. Why had they failed to produce
RerdelPs account books? Then there was
Bosler he sat here from day to day. He
was the man to whom Dorsey had turned
Ger his entire mail business, he could
have told how affidavits had been
prepared and which of the state
ments made by Dorsey and by Rerdell was
true. He was disinterested, certainly not
interested for the government, and after
| the failure OF the defense to call him to
the stand it must be assumed that unless
he was able to fence with the truth, he
would have endangered their case. OF John
Dorsey's letter threatening Rerdell with
prosecution for forgery if he harmed the
other defendants, Bliss remarked it put
John Dorsey in the position of endeavor-
ing to compound felony. Walsh's testi
mony could not be sneered away, nor dis
credited, because he had civil suit agains
Brady. John Dorsey had sworn he relied
upon the honest second assistant postmas
ter general to correct any inaccuracy in hi
afidavits, said Bliss, and Brady had sworl
he accepted the contractors afidavits al
true, regarding them as honest men. VIVA
an edifying state of mutual confidence
Bliss then took up separately number o.
routes and pointed out inaccuracies of af
fidavits and the enormous disproportiol
between the revenue and expenses. FL
quoted Brady's comment upon the Minera
Park route, ga great through route" ant
sarcastically observed that it ran through
the treasury, Adjourned.

gress of the work in detail, so we'll was it
given and so finely we're the Numbers sung
under the inspiring baton of Sig. Jannotta.
Miss Kountz sustained the soprano solos
and her beautiful voice and skilled singing
charmed by its excellence IN each number.
In the Inflammatus it rose above the cho-
rus in magnificent style. Miss Thurston
sustains her part with skill and in the con-
certed music her voice was particularly eff
fec tive. Mr.. Dorgan gave the "Cujus An
IMAM fine rendering, his high, clear
tenor being well adapted to that style of
music. Mr.. DeLacy gave the ''Pro Peccatis''
with marked power and musicianly
feeling, and received great ap-
plause at its close. In the ac-
companied recitative and chorus which
followed his singing was even better,
The singers showed their excellence par
ticularly in the last solo quartet and
chorus, unaccompanied, and throughout
all its difficult, closely written harmonies,
did not deviate from the pitch. The chorus,
too, was grRndly sung in this, and the
amen chorus, which was taken at tre-
mendous pace, they sang with admirable
precision and great power, bringing the
concert to q successful and thrilling close
Too much credit cannot be given tC

he has trained that fine body of voices, and
with which he conducted the varied mum

Funeral of the Late Ebenezer Ayres.

The funeral of the late Ebenezer Ayres,
particulars of whose sickness and death
were given in the GLOBE Saturday, took
place at Cottage Grove Sunday. The fu-
neral was under the auspices of Acacia
Lodge, A. F. and A. NJ, of
which deceased was member,
members of the Newport and Hastings
lodges participating. The procession left
the homestead at II a. NJ, and was over
three-quarters of a mile in length, being
the largest and most imposing demonstra-
ton of the kind ever seen in Washington
county. The services took place in the
Congregational church, at Cottage Grove,
into which not one-half of those assembled
to testify their appreciation of the deceased
were able to gain admittance. The sermon
was by Rev. Mr.. Harrington, of Saltwater,
from the 14th chapter of st. John, Sth
verse, and was most impressive discourse
in review of the life of deceased, in which
he was supplemented by few timely re-
marks by Rev. Mr.. Marvin of st. Paul.

Mr.. R. B. HAYES, who for four years
held the highest Office in the nation without
having been elected to it, last week stepped
out of his retirement at Fremont, Ohio,
where he holds the Offices of road commits
sioner and school inspector, and paid a
visit to New York. Mr.. Whitelaw Reid in
vited him to DINER, and had among his
guests VIM. NJ. Evarts and Geo. Vim. Cur
tiss. All these gentlemen profess great
interest in political purity, and regard
themselves leaders in reform, though no
group of men ever winked at more scan
dalous political corruptions than these
whited purists. 1t is significant of the
esteem in which Hayes is held that only
persons of this class are inclined to be his
associates in his private life. Hayes was
so much disappointed at the absence of
distinguished homage during his visit at
the metropolis, that he has resolved not to
stray away from his village residence
again for sometime.

The funeral of Rev. DR.. G. B. Boynton
took place at Cincinnati on Sunday. His
age was seventy-seven years. He was, be-
ginnin G in 1866, for four years chaplain of
the National House of Representatives at
Washington. His career there as a pastor
was marked by contentious, which owing
to his position as chaplain of the House
rendered him quite conspicuous, and final
ly caused his retirement from his pastor
ship at the Capitol. For twenty five years
he was pastor of the Vine street Congrega-
tional Church at Cincinnati. He was more
oted for strong and aggressive character
istics than for the gentler methods Of ex-
erting influence upon men, which latter
are, after all, the most valuable attributes
of useful lives.

JannOtta's Benefit.

A concert of marked excellence was pre-
scented at Market hall last evening on the
occasion of Sig. Jannotta's benefit. The
programme began with the William Tell
overture by the orchestra which throughout
he concert aided greatly in making it
interesting. This was followed by two
numbers we'll rendered by double quar-
tette. Mr.. w. L. Anderson sang with his
accustomed effect the dramatic solo Re-
we're and gained recall, to which he re
sponded with bow. The next
number "Minuetto,' for strings,
was rendered superbly. Its delicate
shading and the excellent balance
of the instruments making it as one of the
most finished numbers of the evening.
Miss Marie Geist gave an Interpretation of
| Servais' Fantasia op. 4, which calls for
more than ordinary praise. She brings
from the violIncello rich, full tone and
her technical skill is of no ordinary charac-
ter, as was shown by the perfection of her
double stopping and the harmonics which
she produced with delightful effect. The
| 'scena ed aria'' from Traviata, sung by
Miss Kountz, was another charming num-
Der, and it brought that lady an enthusi-
astic encore. The first part of this rich
programme was brought to a pleasant
close by the grand concert march "Peace
Festival composed by Sig. Jannotta.
| The Stabat Mater which filled
the second part of the pro-
gramme was marked success,
and was given with power and precision
by the chorus, deserving of high praise.
The volume of tone, precision OF attack,
and balance of voices would do credit to
any society, and the audience testified its
pleasure by frequent and prolonged ap-
plause. The soloists, while not recognized
| professionals, were fully equal to the diff
cult task imposed on them, and the orches-
ira sustained and supported the whole in
a manner entirely satisfactory.

The STRIKE Era.

PITTsBURG, Pa, April 30.-The tanners
strike in Allegheny will probably not last
much longer, as signs of weakening are
apparent on all sides. A number of
strikers returned to work to-day, and it is
thought others will soon follow. To-
morrow is the day set for several strikes,
among them the coal miners, plasterers
and cigar makers. The miners claim that
the strike will be general, and that about
5000 men will come out tomorrow as Or
dered by the convention. The popularity
in this strike is that for over week ma
iority of the miners concerned have been
working for the rate against which they
strike tomorrow. The strike of the cigar
makers, it is thought, will be a small affair.
1t is stated that out of ninety cigar fac
tories in this city, only five will refuse to
grant the increase demanded, and that
only forty men will be obliged to strike.
