POET TOwNsEND's CELEBRATION
AND OTHER MATTRkS,

Ed. Posi- INrELLroxNcER:
The celebration here yesterday sur
passed all expectations. Indeed. Il was
a most gratifying success and will long
be remembered. 1t began on the eve
ming of the Sd when there was a bril-.
liant display of fireworks at Irondale.
Most OF our slumbering population we're
aroused on the morning of the Fourth
bv the firing of the sunrise salute. At
7:3H there was Calithumpian parade
that fairly Outshone all former efforts of
the kind, especially as to number and
variety OF costumes. The canoe and
tub races excited much merrimeut,
Everything advertised in the program
passed of pleasantly. and no accidents
or misf0rtunes marred the days sport.
The town was Raily decorated with
bunting, while the shipping in our har-
Grafton. Evergreens and miniature
flags studded the whole Of the business
part OF town and gave to the place de-
cidedly holiday appearance.
Two or three hundred visitors were in
town from several different points, Port
Discovery being most literally repre-
sented. Care had been taken before
hand BY the city authorities 70 have
ample police force, Al d a. a consequence
everything was orderly and quiet. Very
little intOxicati0n was aeen. The base
ball game between the Port Townsend
club and the Chimacum club in the af-
ternO0n resulted in tremendous wal
Looping for the latter. There were FIVE
innings, which resulted az follows:
Townsend, 81; Chimacum, 10. The ora
ton, by Hon. G. N. Bradshaw, was by
no means the least noticeable feature Of
the days entertainment. Il was a
thoughtful, scholarly and instructive
production, eliciting frequent applause
during its delivery. One of its distinc-
tive features was local reference in
which glowing tribute was paid to the
early pioneers Of the town.
The picnic grounds were visited by a
large number of families, and their en-
jOyment bespoke satisfaction with eyery
surrounding. Much credit Is due 10 the
committee Of management for CARRYING
everything through 40 successfully,
Port Townsend has acquitted herself
nobly, and can well afford to be salts
fed.

WHAT Mr. NOQRR SAWS

WHAT Mr.. MOORE SAYS ABOUT II.
Mt Moore, OF Solicitor Raynor's Office, who has
charge of the accounts OF star route witnesses,
said to-day, when his attention was called to
publication that he and Mr.. Blackmar were profit
Ing by an arrangement by which witnesses were
paid ten per cent month for advances, that the
statement was false Mr.. Moore's explanation OF
the matter was as follows: At the last trial many
or the witnesses when they arrived here were In
great distress, owing to the expense to which
they had been subjected and their inability
to draw any money from the treasury until the
accounts were passed. Under these circumstances,
as an accommodation to the witnesses. Mr. Bliss
advanced $4,000 out OF his pocket TO Them At the
present trial. it not being convenient to Mr..
bliss to make the large advance necessary TO re-
neve the necessities OF witnesses, many OF those
VINO have tras eled thousands or miles to get here
nave found themselves without means or living
mere. Application TO the government for money
was unavalling. An effort was then made
by witnesses to get broker to advance the money
The broker refused 10 do 1t without some security
and thereupon Mr. Moore and Mr.. Blackmar, who
have the witnesses In charge, as a matter OF
accommodation, became personally responsible
for the repayment OF the money. The rate
charged Is not 10 per cent month, but the money
is advanced at 10 per cent discount, the broker
taking the risk In delay on the part OF the gov
eminent in settling the accounts. Messrs. Moore
and Blackmar deny that they have any pecuniary
interest whatever In the transaction. Mr.. Moore
says he does not know the broker.
Several star route witnesses whom Mr.. Moore
referred the reporter to corroborated the state.

ton at having been able to make such an arrange

Scandal In New Jersey Politics.

prominent democrat, who was active In be-
half OF Senator Mcpherson in the recent Senatorial
election in New Jersey, and whose relations to the
contest were such that he knew all the inside Sc
crets, said to STAR reporter: "There were I'VE
democrats In the legislature who held aloof from
Mcpherson, not because they had any particular
objection to him, but because they were deter.
mined to sell their votes to the highest bidder
They banded together and entered into O written
pledge to stick together and to divide the proceeds
or the sale OF their votes Each afraid 20 trust
the other, and 80 this unique document or pledge
was Entrusted to sixth man, an outsider, to keep
MCPHERSON was notified that he could have these
nve votes by paying for them, but his reply was
that he would not pay cent directly indirectly
out the use OF money. or he would not be elected
at ALL The republican members OF the legislature
learned OF this proposition, and OF McPhersons
emphatic refusal to entertain Il. Certain promi-
nent republicans quietly went to the Senator and
said: we Will give you two votes from our side
Tor every one that those traders keep from you on
the democratic side. We are glad to see this sort
OF corruption put down and defeated In New Jer-
sey, and just let US know how many votes you
will need to elect you.' The little band OF five
found out that Mcpherson could and would be
elected without them. Then three OF the Ave
wllted. and when the ballot was taken cast their
votes for him." In conversation with the reporter
Senator MCPHERSON said that the Information
given by his New Jersey friend was correct; that
he considered the few democratic members OF the
legislature who had so fagrantly attempted TO
barter their votes as unworthy OF any considera-
ton. He said he felt confident OF his Reelection,
as he did not believe that the legislature would
permit five men, acting together for corrupt pur-
pose, to defeat him,

ItOnl Onester ZStn
The home OF Engineer Melville at Sharon Hill is
now deserted and desOlate. Mrs. Melville is living
IN West Philadelphia with her three children
Maud not having yet been given up into the Gus
tody OF her father, according to the decree OF the
Judge Clayton's decision, while her husband, who
is not satisfied with the result Of the TRIAL. will
institute proceedings to finally settle the dispute
between himself and wife. The cottage and
grounds at Sharon Hill are in possession OF the
sherin. mortgage OF 2.300 held by Miss Polls
also been seized to satisfy debts incurred by Mrs
Melville during her husba nd'S absence, and the
piano taken away BY a Philadelphia manufac-

will be sold, as the house and grounds are worth
more than the mortgaye held against them. 1t
Is also alleged that Mrs. Melville viii institute
