I can ascribe a motive to no cue. as my sympathies for the Irish people have been openly avowed and well known." It was assumed tha' the attack would be laid at the door of the Irish, an assumption whieh slie warmly repudiated, adding: "In these das every crime must be of Irish origin."

Lady Florence's Family. Lady Florence I-iixie belongs to an eccentrie family, (she is a sister of the Marquis of Queens-. bury, who rose in a London theater aud denounced Tennyson's latest p.siy because of its treatment of free ttiinkers.

It was her father who gr.ve his name to a code of prize ring procedure. Her mother, wbn became a strong Irish nationalist after the death of this marquis, sent a litierai donation to the wife of the mm who assassinated Talbot, the English detective. Xoshow hisdisproval of this, the present marquis Lady Florence Dale's brother, gave four tunes the sum to Talbot's widow. Another of her brothers, I.ord Archibald Douglas, devotes his time to reclaiming street waits. While he was In America ou business connected with this charity, he lett the orphanage iu charge of a sister.

Lady Gertrude Douglas, and she married the head baker of the orphanage, a youth of half her years, v. ho had been oue of the orphans. Lady Douglas and her husband are now ruuning a bakery at London. Lady Florence D.xie is the youngest of the eccentric family. She married in Sir Alexander Beamneut Churchill Dlx Bart, tihe famous as a horsewoman, as a sailor, as a traveler aud as an impetuous writer, and was special correspondent in Zuzlulaud for the Morning Post.

Her latest contribution to the discussion of Irish arlairs, iu which she has taken an active part, was a letter to the London 2'imes. dated March t.

This man, Mr, L'siau said, had failed in an attempt to blackmail the league, and thou in revenge wrote a pamphlet in which be claimed to give transcripts of the league ac-ounts.

Lady Florence Dixie had this pamphlet printed, but became frightened after a dozen copies had been bound, and had about all of them destroyed. Mr. Egan -Says he has oue of these, pamphlets, and that her recent charges are based on the figures In that book. She has been liberal In gifts of money and labor for the relief of starving Irish peasants. The affair is puzzling every one.

There is no clue to the assailants. A gardener who was potting geraniums thirty ysrds distant from the scene at the time of tbe outrage says he neither saw nor heard anything of the occurance. Lady Florence says she called to her husband tor help- She states that she should be sorry to attribute the outrage to the laud league. Fatal Kali road Collision.

Strotber, United States consul general city of Mexico, Henry Barnett, Uuitod States vice consul Paramaribo H. Hamil ton, United States vice consul TeueritTe ti8. Tbe California Antl-t Itluese Lant, Two cases from San Francisco involvins the validity oi certain municipal anti-Chinese ordinances, came before the United States supreme court to day on ietitionB for writs of habeas corpus. iMith raise substantially the same Questions, namely: Whether an orduanee known as order No. l.tjUi, regulating the licensing establishment and maintenance of public laundries aud puhlio wash-bcusej within ceitam limits In the city of San Francisco, whieh was adopted October 21, by the board of supervisors, was within the legal nower of that board, and whethtr the petitioners-, Tom Totig and Hung Hang, two hinese laundrymen, are lawfully deprived of their liberty for refusing to obey that order.

The case of Hung Hang is an original action in this court iu whieh the prays for a writ of naoeas corpus on tne ground mat lie is unlawfully imprisoned in contravention of the constitution of the United States and of the Bnrlingame treaty. he case of iom long, which is also a habeas corpus proceeding, comes here on a certificate of opinion from the ci.xuit court of the United States tor tne aistrlct or California. In tne latter a motion is made to advance, aud in the former, leave has been given to tile. In General. Justice Cox to day delivered the opinion of the court in general term iu the case of Key, vs the secretary of state and directed the issue of a mandamus to comm'l the pavinent to Key of a portion the award, made by the Moxi- cau claims commission in the case or benjamin Keel.

No action will be taken in recard to the charges against Supervising Architect Hill until Secretary Folger returns to thia city. Acting cecretary of the treasury rrencn said to-Uay that he had asKdl Secretary Folger ou Saturday, if he had anj instructions to give uim with regard to the questions of aaticipat-iug the interest ou the laith call, or the pro-payment of that call which will mature May l. Eiecretary rotgersaiu he bad no instruc tions to give in the as he was not quite ready to act. Judge French says that he will take no action mmseit, ou either or these ques tions until advised by the secretary. Treasurer Gilfillan says it has never been customary to anticipate interest before the iith of the month, ueu.se it is not possible to prepare tne interest checks before that date.

Secretary Teller has requested the secretary of war to detail a military fcuard for the pro tection of the ellowstoue park property. ec-rctary Lincoln has promised to comply with the request. Presideut Arthur has received a letter ircm Berlin enclosing a contribution of 1 .000 marks from a uuiuber of prominent bankers of that city, for the relief of the flood sufferers in this country. 2 he letter was referred to tne state department for proper acknowledgement, and the money was turned over to the representative ia this city of the older of the "lted Cross" for distribution. Comutroller Knox will shortly pav to the depositors of the Freedmau's bank another and a linal dividend of 7 per cent, out of the remaining assets of that insolvent corporation.

Dividends amounting in the aggregate to bo per cent, have already been paid.

THE STAR ROUTE TRIAL.

A Dlacastion of Letts 1 Points. Washington, March 10. With to-day began tbe sixteenth week of the star route trial, and the crimiual court room was tilled with spectators. When the court adjourned, on Friday, the prosecution had just closed its preliminary argument upon the pertinency of the question as to whether or not the witness (Brady) had any knowledge of the Prioe drafts. This is regarded as an important point by both sides for if tne question la a mutea it win piooaoiy leaa to the admission of testimony by Price in support of the government's charge.

The court in answer to a question from Mr. Merrick said that it would allow the government an opportunity to reply to the arguments of the ue- leuse. turning toward the court General Bradv said positively: honor, I would preler to auswer that question and all other fcimiiar questions. Mv lawyers aud mysulf do not seem to have taken the same grounds. Mr.

aierrics. was ot tne opinion mat the witness might auswer without reference to bis lawyers. The court, however, said that it would hear his lawyers instead of iiiui. Mr. lugersoil Of course, your honor, this is no question of privilege, but of relevancy, and my lient is interested.

Mr. Davidge made along argument agains' allowing Brady to be examined concerning the receipt of bnhes from contractors, insisting that even if this were proved it would not establish a conspiracy. It being apparent that the argument would continue for some time, the jury was excused until after recess. The court frequently interrupted Mr. Tlavidgeto express his understanding upon certain points.

1 he court said (hat it understood the princip of law lobe that the government couid not go beyond the issue teudered by the witness himself, if he set up only a general reputation for good character, the government could not go beoud that. Hut if be set up proof of good acts to prove good reputation, then the government could prove particular bad acts to snow bad character. They could meet him on any ground he took. The Court The witness must respond Iu all relevant matters. Mr.

Davldge And he docs not become a target to be shot at for every act committed in his lite-time. The Court No; as to collateral matters I will protect the witness. Mr. Chandler followed In the same general line of argument. Mr.

lngersoll furnished the prosecution with the titles and a description of the cases to which he intended to refer in his argument. A recess was then taken. When the court reassembled Mr. Henkle, of couusel for the defense, also read from a number of authorities in support of their argument. Tne jury was excused fro atiendanue for the day and Mr.

Merrick proceeded toclose the debate on this point for the government. Reading from the record the language used by the witness on direct cross-examination, he insisted that it justified an inquiry into transactions connected with any or all of I he star routes, without regard to those mentioned iu the indictment. Brady had stigmatized all of Walsh's testimony as false, as a "lie made out of whole cloth." On his cross-examination the government proposeu to interrogate him relative to the facts sworu to by Walsh. The court remarked this hd not formed a pnrt of the original offer. Mr.

Merrick replied that he was aware of the fact, but he intended to go into that subject, and brought it up now so as to ss.ve further argument. The eourt had seemed to regard relevancy as the principal question iu tins matter. lr a tning done by a defendant was similar in time of occurrence and character to the offenses charged in the Indictment, it was always as entirely admissible as proof of them would be. It was not an offer to prove tne ooay oi tne crime, out to prove tne motive ana scienre. Tha court inquired why the evidence to support the offer had not been offered in chief.

lr. Jlfrnifc ailfewereu iiiai is inert; wore ueiieut to be derived from the introauctio of the evi- dence now than If it had been offered iu chief. 'He tmt his motives forward, salu Mr. Merries, and I propose by the magic rod of truth to dissolve and disclose his purpose." Mr. lngersoll made tne losunff argument ior the' defense.

He said that it was not material iu this case what Brady's motives were in making expedition in anv other case. It was not necessary to Introduce seyeral other cases to prove that General llradv knew it was wrong to swindle the government. ou count not prove mat a man was guilty of stealing by proving that he stole in a thousand other cases. No matter if he hart stolen In those cases, the presumption was that he was Innocent In tne cuarge under trial. Mr.

lngersoll commented npon tne leugtn oi tne trial, that might run Into vears. The court said that the twelve candles still burned. Mr. lngersoll I am wllilngto go on with eleven when one uiror dies, and when ttie last man dies. to taKj bis administrator.

Yes (to Mr. 1 pxoeet to survive, and the case mav drag along until the judge who shall ciiully pass upon the case will not remember even the natue of your honor. (Laughter.) In the course of the argument the court took occasion to enlignton the eoun set with regard to its position upon certain questions. Speaking of Brady, he said that ho may have been a very kind-hearted man and allowed the members of congress to run him and get these orders at their will. That would have been weak, but not criminal.

If he had been charged with receiving a bribe, the court would require direct evidence of that charge, and would not allow evidence of auv other offence to neeented in proof of tuat charge. It was only bis motives and Intentions that eouid make his acts criminal, tie was on trial to suow uis onQTror to Mr. Tnffersoll.) Xo Proof thai harf reeivwi a bribe in another cse could iwd urainst llorsev or the other defendants. The question was whether the court could reoeie evldenoe of payments to Brady by other contrac-t-- whether his acts vouut not on their face be to he enminal ai.ts by the lig'nf thrown upon his motives In other transactions. The spurt wished to be distinctly understood that these nn'ir hronirht to the attention of counsel for their guidance; that the court had not o-a mfnrl thfl matter as vet.

Mc. lngersoll said that he might continue his ar gument lo-toorrow. The court then ajjonrned. Arre.t of J. Rosier, Philadelphia.
