The Dersey.Luley Assault Case.
TIL SrNc &,

Ex-senator Dorsey's version or the circumstances
attending his assault upon Mr.. Lilley last Tues
day, an account OF which was published In yes
terdays STAR, is substantially as follows: At the
last trial Llley solicited employment from him as
counsel Dorsey employed him and paid him
81 900. the fee demanded. Since then he has been
convinced that Lilley, while so employed. was en-
deavorng TO have Rerdell go over TO the govern
ment, and was arranging false testimony for him
Two months ago Lilley demanded OF Dorsey a fee
OF $50, which he said Rerden had promised him
FOUR or nve years ago, and for which he Dorsey
ana boSer were responsible. Lilley was persist
ent and threatening, and he paid him a check for
BIO as MS part OF the pre- tended claim, which he
dorsey characterizes as a levy OF blackmaiL
Lilley returned to Dorsey's house the other morn
Ing. with another person, and demanded sies
more, and when Dorsey refused it Lilley applied
the most abusive language TO him. Dorsey then
took Llley by the coat coll ar and kicked him out
OF the house.
WHAT Mr.. LILLY SAYS ABOUT poRsEy's VERSION
OF THE DIFFICULTY.
Mr. Lilly was found by a STAR reporter sitting
up to-day, being much better, but suffering some
soreness Being asked as to the "blackmail'
that Mr.. Dorsey speaks OF, Mr.. Lilly produced a
letter dated December 18th. 1882, in which Mr.
Dorsey writes: II have this moment received
your note, In viii oh you say that you have been
informed by seve raj people that have stated
that you were tr wing TO blackman me- Your In
1ormants are misinformed. or in other words the
charge is lie." Mr. Lilly further said that since
that date there has been no relations OF attorney
and client between them. During the first star
route trial. he was OF his (Dorsey') counsel, but
the duties being irksome he withdrew. The
money he Dorsey refers 10 was not for fees but
money he dorsey drew from the Post Orice de-
partment and which rlghtrully belongs to an
nOneSl Suo-contractor-a client OF Mr.. Llly'S
Mr. Lilly further said that he has been the attor-
ney for many sub-contractorS, for whom he had
recovered money drawn by Mr.. Dorsey. He SAYS
client never existed between him and Dorsey ex.
cept In the one case above alluded to.

Frightful Accident at jersey CITY.
THREE TO SEVEN MEN DROWNED.


JERSEY CITY. Nj, March "a serious accident,
resulting in the drowning OF some say three, and
others say as many as seven, men occurred at the
MasningtonaStreet Gap In this city early this
morning. "The Gap" Is the basin of the Morris
canal across which people ferried in scows from
the main land in Jersey City the New Jersey Gen.
trail railroad yards at Communipaw. AT $40 q. m.
scoW with about 30 railroad laborers in it and
sculled by Thomas Mills, the ferryman, left the
lltte foat at the foot OF washington street As the
boat shot out beyond the line OF two or three
lighters that Rugged the shore and INSTRUCTED the
view the tug boat Fl. T. Caspel. with lighter in
tow; was seen coming down the stream. To avoid
collision Capt Mills seized one OF the lighters
and held his scow back. The frightened
passengers crowded to the stern the bow OF the
yawl was borne up out OF the water. The Caspell
passed by without doing any harm, but the
lighter swept round, and, striking the bow OF the
yawl, overturned her. The thirty passengers were
precipitated into the water. From all sides assist
ance came and those who were within reach were
taken out. John Mannion, a laborer, living on
Wayne ST., is known to have been drowned. JAS
Munroe and Thos- ODOnnell, who are missing, are
also thought to have neriShed. Edward FitZSim-
ieaas, John Parslee, H ugh Flaherty and Thomas
McDoG2uSl, who were among the rescued, were
so badly injured that their recovery is doubtful.
No one knows who G: how many were in the boat,
and the full list OF Casualties cannot yet be
framed.
