The Times-Picayune from New Orleans, Louisiana (2024)

to me from consideration of legal well mm for offloial nlie I hare thus far abstained from calling your attention to these matter. I am much better satisfied. Mr. Bliss acting as counsel In the ease, of his own motion has submitted to you the subjects therein dealt with. 4 Mi.

Ker. colleague of Mr. Bliss, called upon me and inTited my attention to the subject in the same matter that Mr. Bliss has in a It Is my opinion that the ends of Justice bare been interfered with by all the persons nnuiuuuu vi vj menn. suss, aiernoK ana.

The Marshal of the District is responsible for mnch of the opposition sentiment xo tne case or me uorernmet that was ei C. blbited in court and out of court during the v. trial of the star route cases, his negligent And irrpffnlajF msmAnnt. in al mti tr taliiinpn I certainty objected to at the time and so informed nun in a public interview that he was ruury or.

ana reierrea to cot. miss as one that must subject him to the severest censure as an officer of the court and an otn cer of the Government. He was guilty in this of an offense which has been punished by the courts as a gross act or contempt. rccvmmeiia ma nNowtti no ia uuvuir able person and has injunoasfy interfered with the proper conduct of the star roate case and given bis personal sympathy of ODCr IO IBs uuivku ueitBuauu. 1.

T. B. Ainger, Postmaster of this city. and his assistant, M. M.

Parker, are Juntly SBDjeet mil me cunrgee presenrea uy air. Bliss, and I think thev should he removed. Ko men holding public apiointments should be permitted to use the infldehoc and power or ueir poc itiona as tnev nave used tuelrs, or be permitted to interfere with such prosecutions, or any prosecution irged by the Government in vindication of the law. ft. Thev man Helm, reeently appointed to the kaad of a department in the public printing office, is by law (seo 376o) incapable of holding thai office, lnasiuttch as he control! a public newspaper, but I will further add the paper he controls (as to which control positive evidence was given upon the trial of the case) is a paper notoriously and confessedly owned by one of the defendants a defendant most capable of all.

since It was by his official criminal malfeasance that corrupt orders were made and frauds successfully perpetrated. His paper has been from the beginning of thee prosecutions down to the discharge of the. Jury, in the most violent aim or all who were suppose! to be lnter oted in bringing the defendants to Justice. The Jndre was not even spared. Counsel were persistently slandered, and witnesses were openly assaulted, denounced and ter continuous current of per aooal abuse and calumny.

I am of the opinion that this man should be forthwith removed, ana 1 am astonuueu that those who have charge of the Government Printing Office, with the public knowledge of these facts, should have ventured to appoint him. He is not a man to be trusted in the responsible position he holds. 4. In conjunction with Mr. Bliss I respectfully call your attention to the conduct of Oeorge Spencer.

Upon the day of your depai tore from this city immediately after HO kijoiuiiuicui ut vjugrca wiuiuuiut tien from Mr. Bliss and other counsel in the ease was sent through me, lodging with you complaint against George E. Spencer. These papers did not reach you at time this was during the latter weeks of the trial in fact, the evidence had closed and counsel were addressing the Jury. Those papers are now before you.

Mr. Bliss, by nl letter, which you have referred tome, called your attention to them. By them it appears that Spencer is a delinquent and absconding witness, that be can testify to material and important facts, and that he left this city and has since secreted himself and avoided the process of law. He holds an important public position, and Is the last man who should hesitate to be present in court to testify in a case of this magnitude and in which the honor of the Government and administration public Jnstice is concerned, and because of his censurable delinquency I unite with Mr. Biis and other coun el in the case in asking bisiiumediate removal.

Time enough has been given him to appear and explain. Not one word has been heard from him, and as he has disappeared as if be were dead, I have directed the mot thorough search to be made forhiui. an.l thus far no trace of him can be found, that search will be persisted in, and if he can be had he will be had and brought into court and made to answer for his acts of gross contempt and disobedience and obliged to testify to those facts which are within his knowledge and are essential to maintain the prosecution of defendants. 6. Geo.

O. Miller, one of the police of the District, in a recent Judicial inquiry, with the audacity of a criminal, confessed under oath that he had been engaged and retained in tne service or aeienaants in tue star route ease, and had persistently assisted them during current of the trial because of this confession so made by him I applied move him: that removal has taken place. S. All of the other matters alluded to bv CoU Bliss have been disposed of and so I nave no occasion to consider them in connection with this reference made to in I will further report that in the public pro seen ti on of the star route and in presenting Jury. I have been aided by vigorous, upri rht and able help given by Mr." Bliss, Mr.

Mcr rick and Mr. Ker. I had intended ta have ncen nrrnpnt i.i person during the whole trial, but a I li.ive lefore this orally reported to rou. otiier da tie of mv odine and mv i n.irt min't rr quired so much of my time that I was ua sow to uu more luau wciuiiiuau; nypuur. but I kept instructed day by day witu thor ougu Knowledge 01 an iuo i acta con ueoteu with the trial by reading and personal in Testigation, and I remained here until ar too middle of September and made the closing argument.

I thought this was neceasarr as an act of duty to the admiai ration of public Justice, and to show the eminent was in earnest, and desired that Justice should be I have never forgotten your instructions on my first accepting office, to pursue this case with vigor and rigor, so that the innocent should be acquitted If clearlv innocent, that the guilty should be punished ir Clearly guilty, and that there mant be no half hearted sentiment in the purpose of the Gorernment and its oSicers in this nrosecntioa. After serious and Drolonsreil deliberation over all the details of the case, my fnvestigations satisfied me that the men who were uiiuricu ere guuiy men ana merited extreme punishment ofjthe law. They had projected under cover of official power, and under color of official authority, a systematic plan of deliberate robbery of the Tinhlln trManrr: to earrv mit thn.f. nlan thev law to do great service, that is conspicuously one of the fruits and causes of our civilization, our social comfort and our com merclal prosperity, our national growth; millions of that money thev perverted to u7i 1 jniisir liniu, aim umlou lb lui their own personal purposes.

I desire to call your attention to the fact that the officers of the law, and those who have directly been aiding me in discharge of my dutrinthis business, have been from the first encircled with snares, pitfalls and Invented to harm them, hinder their useful ness anu prevent tne aiministrvuou or justice.

It would anpear that the wife of a curate of a church frequented by a congregation which suburban society delights to call fashionable had sriveh great offense to her neighbors by reason of the.

varylug hues of her hair, her pencilled eyebrows, her artificial complexion, and ber general dressy style. A deputation of ladles placed the matter before the vicar, who thereupon wrote io the curate, calling on him to resign. Tho curate happens to be a thoroughly practical man, who ua gained considerable worldly wisdom by service in the army before he took orders. Instead of rendering obedience, he forwarded the vicar's letter to the bishop, and appealed to Ids lordship for protection. The bishop replied by reproving the vicar for heeding envious gossip, and Informing him that he is not Justllied in dismissing his curate for the trivial reasons fe tilted.

The congregation is now divided into two camps, and grevt curiosity is expressed concerning the result of the squabble. A large number or widows have been made in Tunis by the death of the Bey. The deceased potentate was not a very remarkable person in history, and would have been luit little heard of but for the action of the French Government with regard to Tunis. AVhcn the French bombarded Sfax and threatened his capital the unfortunate monarch was compelled by SI. Rout tan to sigu treaty which lefs him as completely in the jwwer of the French as the Khedive Is now in that of the Knglish.

He was. however, the most married man in the world, the number of spouses who now i vneut. his loss being about equal to the days of thsyear. Oauche has plated ware. a complete assortment of Something Crooked About Thlm.

The eorreepoL.dent of tho Chicago Tribune, who came hither with the Congressional Committee, dispatched the following to his paper under date of November 22 At iSonaldsonville thit, morning the oommlt teet received the New Orleans papers of I'uesday morion which contained a report of a meeting held by a committee of citizens for the purpose of arranging for the reception of the committee on its ar ri vftl Copies of the telegrams that passed between Chairman Burrows and the chairman of the Citizens' Committee were printed, and the telegrams of the former, which very refused to accept any courtesies, were commented upon unfavorably. This article aroused the ire of Mr. Kills, who said the chairman had no right to send any such telegrams without the sanction of the whole committee, and he had never heard of the telegrams. Mr Thomas said the same thing, and said he would put himself on record by going before the Cotton Exchange to morrow with Mr. Ellis, and explaining that be knew nothing of the telegraphic Insult to the people New Orleans.

The two irentlenien demanded an explanation of Mr. Burrows' action, but got no satisfaction. How Jim Anderson Died. Thomas Dale says that ne and Mr. Reek were standing together on the sidewalk, be on the edge of the sidewalk, with his back toward the and Mr.

Keek standing just in front ot him. While they stood oouver iul qnietlv Dale Bays that Keek looked across he" street and said withont ex citeirerit, there comes A.nderson." A after, he says, tho shooting began, the first shot being fired from behind bin He did Dot see Auderaon at the time.Tle was grabbed Dv Reck; who held him in front of him. He struggled and (iot out of tbo way as quickly as possible. Thomas Robinson was in the Empire Saloon, and heard a number of shots. There came an interval in tho and he 6tepped out on to the pavement.

He saw Anderson starting outr in parsaic of a man, who was rtiMiing away. He did not know who tbeucau was. He saw Anderson about to level his pistol, aDd cried out Don't, Jimmy, yon'll kill innocent people' Thereupon Anderson let his weapon fall by bis side and was picked up bv several men who ran to his assistance. Dr. StOrreJJ eaya he Haw a good deal of the fight from his drugstore.

TLn two combatants fought around and shot around Thomas Dale. Reek was not bit at aH. Anderson was taken into Dr. Schneider drag store. A great crowd followed, against whom the door bad to be locked, that the few who entered might not be etn in their attentions to tba wounded man.

The wounded man suffered dreadful pain. The doctor gave lim a dose of morphine and also xxl chloroform to quiet the pain, but the pain was so great that the anesthetics bad but partial effect. Mrs. Aodarson, the highly esteemed wife of tho unfortunate man, was admitted through the back door. Her distress we refrain from describing.

It can readily enough be imagined. Shortly after her arrival be was placed upou a bod and a stretcher, acd carried home on the stalwart shoulders of eVmpatbetic men who. were present. Eureka Xer.) Sentinel, Xov. No Longer Afraid of Friday.

Tbe idea that Friday is an unlncky day is foist fading away. Coinpoti'iou in business has hilled this stupidity. WLtii a tiue Friday conies after a period of bad weather "tbe Gloucester lioet spreads its canvas aud sails arny. There is a belief, however, in Jonahs. If a has betn cnfoituuate during a series of trips, his presence with the crew is looked on with little favor.

Sometimes a mail will be a Jonah for years, then bis luck will and sbipjiiatea will be glad to sail wilb h'm. A vali9e carried ou board of ship brings bad luck. Dropping a batch in the hold, or turn tag a hatch bottom up, or breaking a looki.ip giass, driving a nail on Sunday, or cutting tbe splices of a cable stop iu the hawse pipe when at ancbor, all bring misfortune. Fishermen say there iuiit always be a sequence of accidents, aud snch fatalities are always of uneven numbers, as in series of 3, 5, and so on. For instance, on a trip recently made, coming under tbe notice of the writer, first some iron fatenings on the boona dtoppt overboard while a ne sail was ofcing bent.

Tbis was followed by the smashing up of the heavy cook i use stove by a fat man, who took a lurch into ir. 1 he third accident, which completed the eries, was tbe snapping of the halyards of tbe mainsail during a stiS breeze. "Toat makes the three accidents." remarked the cook, with satis faction, and now there won't be anv nn A bee living on board or a suiitli bird me ins a streak of lock. If a timber man piR fcs bis hand with a hook he mu )', stick the barb of it in a piece of wood. BDd then the wound will not fester.

To spit on a hook brings a big iish. Another fancy is to push a knife blade into the after side o) tbe mainmast, in order to insure a fair wind. Some of these silly ideas come direct from the Norse, ln Thorpe's "Northirn Mythology we find the following: Pins found in a church make the best fisb hooks. If a woman passes over a rod will not bite. Stolen tiib icg tackle is lucky, but the person robbed loses bis Inck.

You must never tall that on are going lisbing, nor mention tbe numtxr canght. The season of 1882 has been au excellent one; lish have been fairly plenty and tbe prices good. This demand has undoubtedly arisen from two causes the excessive cost of meat and principally because, by tbe novel method 4 of preparing bonelt ss codfish, the distribution of lish food has been enormously extended. From a small beginning business of packing lish in small parcels has apsomed colo sal proportions. as much as any thing else, caused an increased demand for fish, and it is sop posabie will find further development.

Between the old Chcbacco boat of tbe century or the pinkey of 1S00 aud tbe trim Banksman, or yacht like mackerel ecboor of Gloucester, there is the difference ox the past and the present. Records have been kept of these old time tit hermen. That they were solid and staunch, is quite apparent when we are informed that there was a pinkey in existence not a great many years ago that first cut the wares a century before. This was the time when cotton duck waa unknown. Sails were made of bemp, as in use ou tbe English coast today, and as the cloth did not hold the wind of a dry day a "scout horn" was used, this apparatus consisting of a leather pocket fastened to a fifteen foot pole.

Tne sea water was dipped up and thrown on tbe porous sail. An old fashioned pinkey bad a fore cuddy with a brick chimney and a fireplace, carried fore and aft pails, and was without bowsprit or shrouds. They were famous sea boats, and wheq the lisbing season waa over would become coasters. In more tban one gale of to day, for there are still pinkey afloat, these bave been known to pass through a territie gale unhurt, where crafts of more modern build have foundered. How big is a halibut or a cod One hears wonderful stories fishermen's stories about this.

The largest Georges halibut ever landed in (aloooeater came there last year, and turned the sealet at S0 pounds. During the aaroe year seven halibuts weighed 1732 pounds. Tbe big eest Bank halibut weighed S77 pounds. Halibut of 300 pounds are not comnon. The smallest fish was one sent or mail to Mr.

Blackford, which weighed 22 ounces. As to cod. there are trndtflons of a bingle fitth filling a flour barrel. Iu 1ST3 a codfish waa taken, which, whsn dressed, weighed 111 pound. In 1879 a codfish, which measured fire feet two inches and weighed one hundred pounds, was marketed.

It ia on reooid, how ever, when John Qalocy Adam waa secretary ot estate, the uaruieaeaa fishermen sent him frozen cod whioh weighed 84 pounds. As big lobster as ever waa known waa one of 15 pounds caught last year, which shows that there are as good lobsters oat of the sea as In it, ana striped baas fishermen, from the President to the humblest angler, may hope to catch just each ft fish as the one which, taken oft Ports south in August of lastyear: weighed 79 pounds, although iu Prof. Goode'a Game Fishe there is tbe recoid of a striped baas of 104 pound.
