The Democrats have gained all that
it is possible for them to gain by the
extra session. 1t is just as certain now
that no apportionments can be made as
it will be two months hence. What
good can come of longer session we
cannot see. The propriety of an early
adjournment is therefore respectfully
suggested.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-Merrick con-
tinued his attack upon Dorsey and his de-
fence of Rerdel inithe star rout trial this
morning. He said Dorsey had debauched
Rerdell and then used him for his own
criminal purposes. Scratched and blister
ed by his treatment and convicted in the
first trial while his master escaped, Rerdell
had resolved to tell the truth and seek
safety by throwing himself on the mercy
of the government and he had told the
truth, the whole truth and nothing but the
truth.
Ingersoll in referring to the Chico letter,
said Rerdelrs own witness had sworn 1t was
written in 1878, and Dorsey was then at

plank, and the drowning pirates only

Ingorsoll, who had become somewhat
excited, shook his finger at Merrick and
retorted: "Rerdell is your last plank and
you will sink with your rotten plank"
The court declared the proceedings out
of order and disorderly.
A lively passage ensued between the
counsel upon reference by Merrick to the

court for protection from the eternal growls
and snarIs of the opposite side. Without
settling the point which hinged upon a
disputed piece of evidence, the court adj
