THE STAR ROUTES.
The Eighteenth Day of the Trial.

WASHINGTON, April The eighteenth
week of the star route trial was begun this
morning, and the end still appears to be long
way off. Dorsey took the stand.
Merrick referred to Boone's testimony
whore he says that Dorsey instructed him TO
destroy number of bids.
White the witness did not recollect giving
such directions, he said that number Of bids
had been held back for lack of necessary GER
tilted checks.
skrrick demanded a return to his notice for
the production OF the letter press COPY books
The opinion was expressed ~ the court that
defendant could not be compelled to pro-
duce evidence against himself, from which
Bliss dissented.
The court replied that when the defendant
took the stand of course he would be regarded
as any other witness and might be cross-ex-
amined TO the same extent.
The examination was resumed.
The witness bad had letter books examined.
Had not fonnd letter TO John Dorsey under
date Of December 9th but the book was mutt
same question was put in regard to Bolster 4
letter Of May 13, 1879.
Objection was made by Ingersoll, who
avaied himself of the opportunity to explein
his theory that Rerdell had gone through the
copy books taken every letter that could DO
of any possible use to the defendants and given
them 10 the government in part consideration
OF its protection.
Witness stated that the examination OF the
books revealed the fact that six hundred pages
had been torn out.
b. u. Keyser, receiver OF the German Amer
ean National Bank, brought into court tho
books Of that concern to prove a check had
been drawn by the witness in favor OF j. g.
Reynolds.
Dorsey said he paid Mosre $3.50 upou
Miners order. Miner was then In Denver.
Had not directed nor advised Miner to employ
Moore, nof did witness know Moore before
his employment in 1878 n witness had made
ascontract with Moore he would certainly
have remembered IT, Al Conversations de-
scrfoed by Moore were generally denied by
witness
RsrdelPs letters Of introduction TO Gov.
Routh and Capt. Paddock of Colorado we're
read by Merrick.
Ingersoll wished TO give his judgment upon
the handwriting assisting M. q. Rerdeil.
Been written in different hand letters 10 rep
resent Rerdell as man of irrepfoachahlo
character"
Merrick inquired II these statements were
trne.
"Io light Of present events" queried tho
witness
"In light of events ofApril, 1879,' returned
Merrick
Merrick referred to the statements in one Of
the letters to the effect that Rerdel and Peck
we're interested ia Colorado routes.
The court did not believe the person should
be held to strict accountability for statemen Is
In letters OF introduction.
Merrick believed letters should be taken In
to account whom connected with other evi-
dence.
The examination of tho witness was con.
tinued at great length.

LOSS IN THE CUSTOM HOUSE

Collector Robertson Hopeful of Clearing
Up tho xystery.
New York, April There nre no new de-
velopments Ia regard TO the $4,000 taken from
the cashiers room la the Custom House ON
March 18th. No trace Of the missing money
has yet been found. The efforts OF Collector
Robertson and the others engaged on the case
Will not be relaxed, however, although there Is
very little to work on yet The collector re-
grets that he was not told by the cashier OF the
loss as soon as II was discovered instead OF on
the following morning. II might possibly have
simphhed the matter somewhat and rendered
tho solution OF the matter easier. Mr.. Robert
son SAID yesterday that he had not by any
means given up hope that the matter would be
made clear, although TO all appearances he was
now no nearer solution OF IL than at the on Z
set. lie could not SEQ how IL was possible that
mistake in counting could have been made.
That would presnppose that two expert ac-
countante made the same mistake on the same
item. This wonld be coincidence little short
OF miracle; lhere was nothing 70 do but
porK pefseVeiingly and patiently. The checks
and misconntlng aud theft were 80 complete
that he thought before this latest experience
that there could be no less Most OF The pres
ent precautions against pecuniary loss had been
devised and ordered by himself Since the
loss OF the $4,000 in gold certificates, he had
directed that the items on the tickets giving
the amount OF money handed In for duties
should be written in ink instead OF pencil, as
had been done heretofore. lie issued this order
one or more figures written with pencil and
substitute others, IL either Of the counters ern-
ploYed IN tho cashiers office should choose to
acl III collusion with enc OF more brokers out

nhhuieu ually extreme care was necessary
The Portland daily press., 1883-04-03

Cashier Hoffman said that he could throw
no additional light on the matter. He did not
consider that he was responsible for the LOGS, os
ne had carried out all the regulations pre-
scribed by the collector. He felt all the more
keenly this loss because for eight months there
mad been no trouble in his department. Since
August last there had been paid in for duties
and passed through the hands OF the cashier
and his assistants between $94 900 600 and $685.
100000. The only discrepancy In all that time
until the present loss was discovered was an
item OF $25 or $50, and this was finally straight
ened out. He had given the matter a great
deal OF anxious consideration. II the certifi-
Gates were not taken, the only way he could
possibly account for the mistake was by sum
posing that $1,000 gold certificate had been
credited as $4,000 This. however, would re-
quire that two clerks should make the same
mistake and this was hardly credible. He
trusted the matter would be cleared up and
the blame placed where 1t belonged, for ii nat.
urally created an uneasy feeling among all in
any wise concerned.
