WASHINGTON, March 2l.-Oolonel George
Bliss continued his testimony before the

did not claim to be an expert in drawing in
dictments, and so stated to Attorney General
Brewster, who employed Mr.. Ker, of PbiIa-

pert, indeed, than he who has criticised his
work. (meaning Colonel Cook. Concerning
the prolongation of the trials, witness re-
ferred the matter to Judge Wylie, who
heard the case. He was willing to let Judge
Wylie speak of the causes for prolonging the
cases. The verdict in the first trial witness
pronounced absurd. The action of Mr..
Spencer in eyading the officers received the
attention Of witness for some time. Witness
thought Spencer guilty of doing little

apprshend Spencer, who received letters in
New York under an assumed name. Subse

Gibson, was found with him. Later Spencer
went to Europe where he remained until he
was cabled that the trial was closed and he
could return. Witness was confident that
whatever Spencer's interests In the case

himself much unearned credit and eulocized
his own labors. The report made by Glib
son served no purpose to the government
either, and witness did not think him entitled
to pay for It. From the moment Gibson
made certain report in 1881 whatever con-
fidence witness had in his honesty disap-
peared. He believed Gibson to be dishonest,
and he had the combination of the
safe changed SO that Gibson could
not have access to the papers. The
defendants were answering questions
which could not have been answered
without information from the government
side. Mr.. Bliss believed Gibson and Cock
were 'iselling out'' the prosecution. Pay
ments of 81, 500 from Dorsey and Bosler to
Gibson were found on their books for Gin
formation also payments to Cole, Cooks
partner. There were indications which led
witness to believe there was an improper
agreement between Spencer, Gibson and the
defendants as early as the time MacVeagh was
Attorney General. The committee wanted to
know the connection Gibson had with |
Samuel J. !ilden in starting the Star |
route Investigations. Witness replied that |
it was known that Tilden furnished the |
money to carry on the preliminariss. Mr.. |
Mclean, of New York, Law partner Of Henry |
E. Knox, who was a chum of James A. Gar |
fields, came here and started the investiga- |
ton The information Tilden procured was
not given to General Hancock, the Demo- |
cratic nominee for President 1t might have
been made public early in 1880 had Tilden
been nominated instead of Hancock. Colonel
Bliss also thought that the grand Jury should
have returned indictment against Senator
Kellogg on Walsh's testimony, despite
slight break in the evidence.
