His Counsel.
Yesterday morning in the Police Court
Judge I. ]. Mackey made molten to reopen
the case Of ]. s. Keith, colorod man, Of 1717
K street, who was fined $25 for keeping o
bawdy house last Monday. He filed an
affidavit of Keith to the effect that tho
plea of guilty entered by his counsel was
without his knowledge and against his
will.
Prosecuting Attorney Thomas said, OF
the suggestion Of Lieutenant Arnold who
made the raid, he accepted plea Of guilty
from the defendants counsel and fine Of
$25. Mr.. A. X. Browne, who appeared for
the defendant, entered plea of guilty for
his client
Mr. Brown said the statement Of the Dis
trict Attorney was correct. Ho was regu-
larly employed and deposited $50 collateral
for tho defendant, and explained to him
that It was better to plead guilty and pay a
fine of $25. After tho consultation with hi,
client he entered the plea of guilty at his
suggestion.
The Court said the defendant was bound
by the acts of his counsel and the record
would have to stand and the motion of

Star Route Cases.

star Nhses.
WASHINGTON, June 1S.-A very labor
ed and ridiculous attack on the Springer
Investigating Committee appears in a
New York paper to-day. The two prinei-
pal charges are an effort to shield Attor-
ney General Brewster and devoting un-
necessary time to the investigation of
marshals' accounts to the exclusion of
more important matter. Mr.. Springer,
having had his attention called to the
article, said: This attack received its
inspiration from the star route thieves
who recently defeated most elegant and
singularly honorable gentleman for the
Republican nomination for the Presiden-
cy. l have endeayOred to shield no one
/ have faithfully tried to smirch
no one. All the Investigations have been
openly, honestly and energetically con-
Quoted. My committee has sat more
hours and had orefrequent meetings than
any other committee in Congress. The
things we are charged with as having left
undone are matters over which we had no
control. The House gave us no iurisdic-
tlon outside of our regular work, although
l asked several times that the scope OF
our Investigations be widened. In regard
TO Gen. Brewster / can only say that the
administration has met us more than half
way from the very beginning in our
efforts to expose frauds and purify the
public service. There is not the slightest
ground for the statement that either the
President or the AttOrney-GeneraI has
been derelict in the prosecution of the
star-route defendants. Quite the con-
trary. There is every evidence going to
show that they have both made an honest
effort to purify the party within itself.
For the effort and his failure to entirely
accomplish it, President Arthur was, in
my Judgment, defeated; and by whom,
pray: Why, by the worst elements of
his party. The men he had been
prosecuting, and their friends.
These We're the active forces in the
nomination of Blaine. The Elkinses, the
Dorseys and men of that ilk, the star
route plunderers and thieves who had
been exposed by this administration. went
to Chicago to defeat Arthur and nominate
Blaine. They succeeded admirably. Ar
thurs nomination was the one thing
feared at Chicago. He is the first gentle
man we have had in the White House for
years. If nominated he would have been
the hardest Republican in the country to

CLAIMED as his from the Office of Squiers &
Co., the bankers who failed recently. said
to-day that five years ago he asked Mr..
Squiers to allow him to leave a safe
in his bank, and that he had
kept it there ever since; that it contained
papers belonging to him, and silyerware
and papers belonging to his wife, and that
Squiers had no right to open the safe, and
had not had access to it. lie said that he
had frequently loaned money to Squiers
at 10 per cent. per annum, but had not
been his partner.

A Polling Place AssaIIed and the Bal
lot Boxes Broken Open.
CHICAGO, June 1S.-The primaries for
the election of delegates to the First,
Second, Third and Fourth Congressional
District Democratic Conventions were
held here last evening, and resulted in
the choice of men who will send delegates
to the State Democratic Convention IA
yoring Mayor Harrison's nomination for
Governor, and his choice as one of the
delegates-at-large to the National Con-
vention.
The four district conventions will also
choose district delegates to the National Con-
yention, but it cannot be said from the re-
suits of the prim aries what instructions these
conventions Will give as to the Presidential
nominee.
As the voting was about to begin at one Of
the polls in the First district, where there are
two factions, several men of one faction
rushed into the room, seized the ballot box
and threw it to the floor, the box bursting omen
At the same time four or five hundred fickets
were scattered on the floor. The attacking
party claim that the box was stuffed. The
judges claim that the tickets were thrown on
the floor by one Of the intruders The box
was taken to the station house. What gives a
sensational character is the fact that J. q
Mackem, the Democratic Organizer of the
city, was one Of the judges, and that the
leader of the invaders was Alderman WheI-
Ian, from the First ward.

Hon. Heister CIvmer5s Deatb

READING, PA, June 1S.-The friends OF
the family Of the late Hester Clymer
authorize the following statement rela-
tive TO his death: Mr.. Clymer was in bad
health, suffering from malaria. profuse
night sweats and insomnia. He used
narcotics in quantities which in
ordinary health would only have pro-
duced sound sleep, but which, in his de-
bllitated condition, produced paralysis of
the brain and hurried his death. There
will be no judicial inquiry, and the BODY
will not be exhumed. There is no trutb
in the report of Mrs. CIymer's dangerous
illness.
