IT DOES not appear just why the
HARRISON organ at Indianapolis should
be emphatic in the announcement that
the private secretary Of the coming
president cannot whistle. There may
be an occult significance to it that has
not been conjectured. Still, it is an art
that may be needful to preserve eQua-
nimity at times when disappointed per-
sons retire from audience with the

MiSSEAroLis. MINI, March 20.-The
trial Of Judge William WEIGH for criminal
libel against Secretary VIM. y. Villas was
resumed today after a weeks recess taken
ON account Of Judge welchs illness. A
on the previous days Of the trial much Of
the time was occupied with tedious argu.
menis over the admission Of evidence.
Judge Weloh was on the stand nearly all
day and gave detailed account Of an In
teryiew with Mr.. Villas In August, 1881, In
which the latter admitted approprialing
$4,000 Of the assets Of the old Madison
Mutual Insurance company. This was the
most important testimony introduced TO-
day. Buell. u. Hutchinson, the former
secretary Of the Madison Mutual. and an.
other object Of welch's alleged libel, has

him. Does not recollect what he said to
him. Witness did not hear Purser testify
in the habeas corpus trial. Pursep did not
say 1t as il it was any secret, nor did he in
sist that Eubanks was in it.
Re-examined--ln the course OF the con-
versation Purser did say that he could see
there were only two men fighting just as
plain as he could see in the yard.
J. II. opNEAL
recollects the occasion OF the conversation
between Purser and Kerr; did not know
Purser, and does not know him now, ex-
cept that Kerr said il was Purser. The de-
fense here expressed doubt as to whether
it could pursue the examination further.
The State waived any objection and the
witness proceeded. Recollects the conver-
sation very indistinctly. His impression
was that Purser had kept back something
favorable TO Hamilton and he criticised
him for it. Told Judge Brame the other
day that what he heard did not amount to
row of pins. Witness did not hear all
the conversation and cannot repeat any OF
il. Got tine impression that Purser had
kept back something favorable TO IIamil-
ton from what Purser said. Judge Cal
houD talked 10 witness about the conver-
sation about the end Of the habeas corpus
trial. He supposes Mr.. Kerr told him
about IT, Witness wife is fourth or fifth
cousin to Col. Hamiton's wife.
Recommending relationship would
not make him testify falsely when it was
that far off.
