Mr. Springer read te the committee n lotter from Mr. Barker charging that Illegal fcea, aggregating lmmonie Bums, had been passed by the comptroller's oflleo in the bills of various foderal oeurt oflleers. Mr. Darker then told hew he had fought ugniuat, mesa illegal ices and Inntanneil flagrant canes. LTe said that United" States Dlttrlet Attorney Stone, of the Westeru district of Pennsylvania, chargiug a per dlem for Bixty days for ene term of court. That term only had four eases. The oemp treller said the bill was outrageous and should net be allowed, but It was allowed. Mr. Erhardt, marshal of New lYerk city, paid out $3,300 for supervisors of eleotlens. They served, all of them, flve days, and some of them ten days. Thore was noth ing te show that they ought te have been ompleyod lenger than one day, the day of olectlen. Thore Jtvote ether amounts for 911,000 that were the result of the Star Keute trials, Mr. Darker thought that the attorney general influenced the comptrel ler te allow the i11 000.

These are all sworn te by these officers, then submitted te and ap proved by the court in the prosence of the district attorney, whose duty it is te object te any false or Illegal item. These aoeouuts wero all approved by the first auditor. The complaint is, thoreforo, against the elDcers, thelr oaths, the court, the auditor, and last, the comptroller's ofllce. It Is mere likely ene man should be mistaken than all these. " As te expenses in the StAr Heute eases, they wero approve! by tin atterney general, whose approval Is conclusive. As te the deputy marshals at elections, they were only paid for half tin time allowed by law, the aoeouuts wero sworn te and approved by the cjurt and the marshal) bad sole control of the time tliev should serve. But one man In the United States has ever said I allowed illegal or extrava gaut ebarges, and he says 1 am honest.
