New York, March 20.--Further
experiments in telephoning between
this city and Cleveland, Ohio, were
made t.. lay. The station here was
in one of the Postal Telegraph Com
pany's rooms at 49 Broadway. A
ground circuit was used. The dis,
tance ia about $50 miles. The in>
struments employed were the receiver
and transmitter of Molecular Tele-
phone Company. The transmitter
consists of box, in which is an in
duction coil, one leg of the local bats
terry of two cells is connected with
the primary of the coil, then with one
side of the microphone, and through
the microphone back to the other
side of the battery, completing the
local circuit. The microphone against
which the voice Of the person speak
ing is directed consists of cork
membrane six inches square and a
quarter of an inch thick, placed over
the induction coil. On the back of
this membrane are strips of copper;
forming circle broken at opposite
sides. Spokes of carbon run from
posts OF carbon on the copper strips
to hub of carbon in the centre OF
the cork membrane. 1t is claimed for
this instrument that n olecular yibra-
ton is produced in the cork, and the
instrument is much more sensitive
than the receivers generally in use to
the sounds to be transmitted. The
secondary runs to the working line
and through the receiving instru-
ments as is usual in telephone sys>
tens. The receiver is intended to do
away with induction. which produces
the cracking sounds usually heard in
telephone receivers, by providing
against the interchange OF polarity
between the different parts of the
magnet, In to.day's experiments a
disk cut out of business card was
used, The voices of persons speaking
| in Cleveland were heard as distinctly
as voices are heard under favorable

RERDELL.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-Judge Will
shire, late counsel for Rerdell, in an
interview denounced Rerdell in un
maasurea terms. Among other things
pleasant of his late client he said:
"He is one of the most treacherouA

Dorsey was not fooled in him, for he
told me that Rerdell was fooling me,
but l could not believe it. I told him
finally what I had heard, and 1 thought
l had right, as his attorney, to know
if it was so. He swore by all that
was good and bad that it was not
true; that he had never met one Of

In the cross-examination of Dorse,

In the ross-examination of Dorsey
on the 3rd inst, he used the following
language: "After a consultation with
Gen. Garfield in presence of Mr.
Ingersoll, I left Washington to go
West, and did not expect to return.
| did not think then, that Rerdell
had been unfaithful to me-" This
was the celebrated interview, well
known to certain newspaper men at
the time, in which Dorsey appealed
to Garfield to save him on account of
his invaluable campaign services, and
in which Garfield put his hands upon
his shoulders and told him to return
to his ranch and he would see that he
was thoroughly protected.
The inference among those who as
sumo to be posted is that Garfield
would have interposed in every pos
sible way to save him if he had lived,
and that Marshal Henry, District
Attorney Corkhill, and others had
orders to that effect; but those who
remember his treatment of Conkllng
and others who were instrumental in
making him President, are ready to
believe that he would have deserted
Dorsey in his hour of need.

EDITORIAL MATTER,
DOrsey's War Against McVeagh.

eff President Garfield had lived
another week." said Dorsey on his
cross-examination, "Attorney General
McVeagh would have been removed
If there was anything I didn't
do to get him removed, l have for
gottenit. He had disgraced his office"
These comments of Star Route Con-
spirator upon the character of the Ex-
Attorney General, will serve to
increase the respect of the outside
world, for him. 1t may be that Dorsey
in his effort to secure McVeagh's
removal was instrumental in procur-
ing the appointment of his ensmy,the
present Secretary of the Navy, VIM.
E. Chandler, to the position of Solic-
itor General nomination that Nc
Veagh could not induce Garfield to
withhold or withdraw, and that he
labored early and late to have defeat
ed by the Senate. If the Senate had
confirmed Chandler, ,McVeaugh would
have resigned, and perhaps this Chan
dler nomination was part of Dorsey's
campaign against the Attorney Gen
eral who was unearthing his base
frauds.

WASHINGTON, April 5,-The Pres
ident and his little party started to-
day on the long-talked Of Florida
trip. The President is reported as
saying that he intends to catch the
fish that swallowed Senator Beck's
gold-rimmed eye glasses. A promi-
nent friend of the President said to-
day that the President was making n
mistake in going South. His blood
is thick, he said, and warm climate
will weaken rather than strengthen
him.
The President wore a smiling face
at the depot. He seemed to be high
ly pleased with the way the papers
spoke of the appointment of Gen.
Gresham. He and Chandler chatted
with one another while waiting for
the train to start. Chandler said he
did not intend to bait the hook. The
President replied that he did not want
Chandler along when he went on
fishing excursions, because he was too
nervous and hdgety. When he reach
ed Florida he said he intended to
start Chandler over to Pensacola, to
look after the navy yard matters
there. 1t is said that the Tallapoosa,
or some other government vessel, will
be ordered to Key West,and that the
President will come home by sea.

Salmon, who has for some time been

officers entrusted with the lives of

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, April 2.-The Presi-
dent looks wearied and out of health,
but he has not started on his trip to
the South. Florida is the objective
point of his expedition. He proposes
to do some fishing while there.
The appointment to the vacancy on
the Mississippi River Commission
will probably be made on his return.
When the appointment of Post.
master General will be made, or who
it will be, no one pretends to know.
Only this much can be said-namely,
that the President hates to make up
his great mind on any subject, and
never does to-day when he can post
pone till tomorrow.
1t is asserted by those who claim
to know that Secretary Teller has
concluded to reverse the decision of
the Department of the Interior made
in 1866, which declared the Ship
