KELLEY RALKED.
Failure of the Attempt to Railroad the
Internal Revenne RiII

Failure of the Attempt to Railroad the
Internal Revenue Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The iniquitous
tariff bill having been killed in the House
last Saturday, the Republicans to-day
brought forward that portion of the Senate
tariff bill which relates to the internal
revenue. 1t was the same old dodge that
they played last session. 1t will be re-
membered that then they tried to push
through what was known as the little inter-
nal revenue bill, as sop to the cOuntry's
demand for internal revenue reform; that
they also passed the Tariff Commission
bill as a sop to the demand for tariff re-
form.
They have failed to do anything for
tariff this session, so they wanted to ap-
pease the people by passing the internal
revenue bill, which they brought forward
to-day, but they could not succeed. 1t
was thrown at them and proved that they
did not want any tariff legislation, and
that they were only after getting internal
revenue cut down in order that it might
be maintained
1t was the same old trick>Of last session,
and was voted down. Thus, unless some
thing very unusual shall turn up, Con-
gress will have adjourned without doing
anything for the tariff or for internal reve-
nue. relief In view of the late elections the
Republicans in Congress seem as if they
were flying in the face of political prOvi-
dence in pursuing this course, but the
protective barOns have them by the neck.
There seems no earthly contingency that
il can be otherwise than that the impOr-
tant questions Of tariff and internal reve-
nue. reform will 90 over to the next Con-

MISTAKEN FOR A PICKPOCKET.
A Retired Merchant Arrested on "A False
Charge,
NelC York Times.

AS Mr.. John H. Abeel, a retired iron
merchant, of No. 127 Second avenue, was
riding down town on Third avenue sur
face car, about 10 O'Clock yesterday morn
ing, Mrs. Annette Schirmer, of Morris
ania, who was also a passenger, discOv-
cred that she had lost her pOcketbook,
containing $15. When Mr.. Abeel left the
car at Chatham Square Mrs. Schiriner
pursued him and accused him of stealing
her purse. Upon his repelling the
charge, Mrs. Schirmer called policeman
and demanded the arrest of Mr.. Abeel.
who volunteered to go to the Oak street
police station with the officer and submit
himself to examination. Upon being
searched the pocketbook was not found
upon Mr., AbeePs person, and he was ac-
cOrdingly discharged after, proving his
identity. A reporter of the Times called
at Mr.. AbeePs house yesterday, and was
received by an old gentleman, who, with
his flowing white beard and benevolent
countenance. looked the last man in the
world to be mistaken for a pickpocket.

THE STAR ROUTE TRIAL.

RerdelPs TestimOny-The Entries in
DOrsey's Memorandum Book.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Rerdell con-
tinued his evidence in the star route trial
to-day. Witness had memorandum in
DOrsey's handwriting as to the pay
ment of percentages. This. paper was
among the papers taken from his
office. This memorandum came into
his pOssessin in April, 1879. 1t was
a tabular statement. In the first column
was the number of route, in the next col
umn was the termini, next the present
pay, next the contemplated paw, next
was the percentage to L. i. b., 3315 per
cent. and the amount in figures (ThOmas
j. Brady.
Witness told how he had been moved by
DOrsey's fearful appeals to make the fl-
nous retracting affidavit, and he related
how that affidavit was prepared by him
self and Dorsey jointly. While telling
this story Rerdell. broke down and was
obliged to stop for time. He was almost
in tears himself. When he could control
himself he continued, saying Bosler came
to his house about 2O'clOck in the afternoon.
Witness made out statement, which he
gave TO Dorsey. Dorsey fixed it up,
changing some parts of it, and the witness
then swOre to it. Witness kept the origi-
nal copy, and it was in his desk and along
with the papers taken from his office after
the last trial. When asked what became
OF the paper sworn to, witness said /:
dorsey and Colonel Ingersoll and myself
went to the White House with it, Dorsey
and IngersOll going up stairs and re-
naming down stairs, and that was the
last | saw of it."
Witness identified copy of the retract-
ing affidavit as published in the newspa-
pers at the time, and it was read by Mr..
Merrick. Witness then taking the paper
read portions which he had written and
portions written by Dorsey. The state
ment of facts as to his alleged interview
with MacNeagh and James in the ca
pacity of detectiye-but really in the In
terest of Dorsey IL CO.-was a joint COM
position by witness and Dorsey, Dor
sey inserting a clause here and
there apparently for the purpose
of improving the story and making it
more plausible. The closing paragraph
declaring the witness positive knOwl-
edge that no relations of a corrupt nature
had ever existed between Dorsey and any
government official, and justifying his
Witness conduct in assuming the role
of detective on the ground that the
Attorney General was acting as a
detective to ruin ex-senator Dor
sey, was written by S. w. Dorsey.
The opening paragraph about the under
taking to learn, in the role of detective,
what was the cause of the abuse of Dor
sey in the newspapers, and the
active. hostility of ex-senator Clayton
against Dorsey, were also written by Dor
sey. Witness said that the statement in the
affidavit that he (witness) could initiate
perfectly and continually, did initiate
DOrsey's hand writing, was untrue. He
had on two occasions been authorized by
Dorsey to sign checks, but he had never
attempted to initiate DOrsey's handwri-
