The first he knew Of its presence
was couple Of sharp pricks like a
pin on one Of his feet. After being
bitton he and another party made
search for the snake short time,
but did not find it, and as the foot
began to swell he had to return into
the house, and dispatched the other
party to town for physician. DR..
Potts arrived at about o'clock in
the morning and administered anti
dotes. hut he had not obtained re-
lief up to Thursday evening. At
last accounts the patient was vomit-
ing freely, but his foot and leg we're
very much swollen.

afternoon, the Messrs. Taylor, brick

THE STAR ROUTE TRIAL.

Merrick Concludes His Argument. and the
Case VIII be Given to the jury on Tues
day.
WASHINGTON, June S.-Merrick contin-
ued his address in the star route case. con-
hning his remarks for the most part
to the question of the division of routes.
He maintained that no question of
the division of routes could free the
defendants from the crime committed or
terminate the conspiracy, ana declared the
proof was incontrovertible of complete
division, April l, 1879. If he established
the existence of a conspiracy on that day he
had conformed to the charge in the indict-
ment. Mer1ick closed his argument and the
court adjourned till Monday. 1t is be-
lieved the case will go to the jury Tuesday
afternoon.
Merrick concluded his address as follows;
The people, regardless of party, would
pay an everlasting tribute TO an admins
tration that had the moral courage to
punish the corruption of members of its
own political household. He demanded
from the jury verdict of glilty against
all of the defendants, not verdict based
on sympathies, but on facts, evidence,
law. He demanded this verdict in behalf
of the people of the United States whose
treasury the defendant had robbed. He
demanded a verdict in vindication of the
official trusts the defendants disregarded,
OF the laws of the land, which they had
spurned with contempt. He demanded a
vindication of the truth and honor and vir-
tue of the American people, which these
men had stained and blackened. By
verdict of guilty that injury to virtue, and
truth and honor might be redeemed. and
that, too, by jury taken from the people,
showing their appreciation of outraged
honor. Merrick thanked the court and
jury for their patient attention and took
his seat An attempt at applause was
checked by the court. Both sides prepared
their papers. After a short discussion OF
counsel both submitted their prayers. to
secure their publication in the next issue
of the Record.
And then the question arose as to the
time to be allowed for argument. At In
gersolPs suggestion it was decided to linn
1t arguments to Mondey, the time to be
equally divided between the prosecution
and defense. The attendance of the Jury
being unnecessary during the argument
on the prayers, they were excused until
Tuesday, and the court adjourned until
Monday.

Il ROW 1T THE WTNDSOR.
"A Guest Resents an Alleged Insult to His
Wife and is Fined $40.

Wife and is Fined $40.
Henry Anderson, guest at the Windsor
was arrested yesterday by Officer Zirkle
bach, charged with assaulting Thompson
head waiter at the Windsor, and paid 2
fine of so in the municipal court. The
circumstances preceding the alleged as
sault, as stated by the accused, are as
follows:
Mr.. Anderson arrived at the hotel from
Billings last Tuesday accompanied by his
wife and her sister, a girl of about ten
years OF age. Upon their appearance in
the ladies' ordinary, it is said, THOMPSON
became officious in his attentions to the
lady, and 30 continued until he succeeded
IN making himself disliked. On yester-
day these attentions, it is claimed.
became offensive. Mrs. Anderson
with her sister were sitting in the ladies,
reception room when Thompson entered.
ana, 1t IS claimed, requested the latter to
leave the room. She went at once to Mr.
ANDERSON, to whom she detailed the occur
renee, Whereupon the latter hurried to the
defense OF his wife. He attacked the al
ieged intruder in the hotel vestibule, but
was interrupted before 1nfictingIiniury.
ana was arrested. The officer making
the arrest conveyed him at once to the
municipal court, and upon being ar
ralgned sent for his wife as a witness in
the case. The lady arrived after a brief
interval, but upon entering the court
room, tainted. She was revived and TAX
ing the stand proceeded to give her evil
oence' She had scarcely commenced
the narration of her testimo-
ny before she swooned again
and the proceedings were brought to an
abrupt conclusion. Mr.. Anderson. who
had previously pleaded guilty, begged the
court to determine the judgement, an
nounclng MS willingness to pay any fine
that might be imposed. His honor, being
left no alternative, the accused having ad-
mltted the charge, assessed fine of $40:
which was paid and the parties released.
anderson at once removed to the Mer-
chants, where he was seen last evening by
a GLOBE Reporter. He stated the cir
cumstances cited above, and further that
on Thursday afternoon when Mrs. Auder-
son was proceeding to her room from
dinner, she was followed by Thompson,
who rendered the lady card with the re-
quest that she accept it. She reached
her apartment and slammed
the door in the intruder's
face to escape further annoyance. When
her husband returned from his business
she detailed the facts to him, but he, desir-
Gus of avoiding the scandal that would
result, paid no further attention to the
matter. On yesterday when Thompson
once more offered affront to the madame,
Mr.. Anderson states, he determined to
leave the house. While settling his bill
the head waiter made his appearance, with
the results already stated
In justice to Thompson it should be
stated that he denies that his attentions
were other than those due guests of the
