THE RIOT BRIBERY TRIALS. KEMBLE. SALTER. CRAWFORD ANP RCM BE&GER PLEAD GUILTY. HAREISBVEG, March B.—The plea of guilty entered this afternoon by Salter, Kemble,' Crawford and Ram berger was unexpected. Mr. Wolf*-, said it was done because they knew conviction was inevitable and feared further exposure. He claims to hare accumulated a large quantity of aoi,- tional evidence, which would have let! in daylight on other men. back of Kemble and tbe others, which this plea of guilty prevents his producing in Court. All but Kemble made a simple plea of guilty, while he p'.eaded "guilty of corrupt solicitation, as stated before the committee, and pro testa that he never offered any money or thing ol value to either or any of the persons Damed in the bill of in dictment." This his counsel ex plained to mean that he pleael gnil'y onlv so far as "log rolling was con cerned : that is by promising votes for other bills for votes for the riot bill. Judge Pearson objected to this plea being entered, lest it be used afterward in the Supreme Court to set aside the sentence. He said it means "guilty and vet not guilty." Ultimately, counsel presentee! a plea of guilty, accompanying it with a paper which read : "Defendant pleads guilty, and bv leave of Court illes this pro test that the plea is not to be construed as an admission on the part of said defendant that be did ccrruptly offer any money or thing of'valne unto any bt either of the personfc nameel in the indictment." None of the defendants named are in tbe city. Rumberger is in Arm strong county where his wife is said to be lying dangerously ill. Matt Carpenter and Judge Black airived at a late honr this afternoon. Ibe pro ceedings did not commence in Court until half-past two P M., when Messrs Wm. B. Mann. F. Carroll Brewster. Wm. H. Armstrong. Lewis C. Cassi day, Charles Albright, A. J. Herr and R.*A. Lamberton, all of the defense, ap peared. Of tbe defendants, Messrs. Clark, Petroff, Shoemaker, Smith and Leisenring were in the Court. They will plead "not guilty" and stand trial. It id thought none of them can be con victed. Chris. Long's case was called, but postponed because of bis severe illness, and the Commonwealth were unprepared to proceed with the either cases, but will go ahead to morrow. PETROFF ON TRIAS. HARRISBLRQ, March 9.—The selec tion of a jury in tbe Petroff case was a matter of considerable dispute. After tbe first twelve jure>rs had been drawn, tbe Commonwealth ordered three to stand aside. Judge Pearson rather sharply said that could not l»e done. Mr. Gowen toe»k issue with this de cision, and said the Commonwealth was prepared with abundant autbejrity to prove their right to have jurors stood aside. Tbe Court said tbey would be bound by authorities, and asked for them, saying it wa3 competent to stanel jurors aside in tbe Oye;r and Terminer, but it bad never been heard of in tbe Quarter Sessions. Mr. Gowen then re-ad a nutnU-r of aulborities, after which Mr. Brewster brieOy addrehited tbe Court in an ef fort to controvert tbe Commonwealth's authorities. Mr. Simonton followed and wa* re plied to by Mr. Brewster, during which tbe Cemrt interrupted, and *aid that under tbe authorities cited by the- Commonwealth, tbe three jurors must stand aside. Tbe defence tenjk an ex ceptiem. Three more jurors we-re drawn and toe»k their places, anel the right to challenge was liberally exod aside on ace,-ount e>f having fejrmed or expressed e>pinie»ns as to PetroflTs guilt or inne>cence. Fi nally, at half-past 12 o'clock, a jury was secured, and Court adjourned un til this aftetnoe>n at 2 o'clock. HABRJSBL-RO, Mare-b ».—The morn ing session of the Court has l»een frittered away by a little quibbling amon tr tbe lawyers, and beyond the drawing of a jury to try PetrofTs caw ne ihing lurtber has been accomplished. Kemble's plea of guilty has been ac cepted, and tbe Judge has announced that it will be time enough to pass sentence when all the cases have been disposed of. Before Kemble's plea was accepted an hour was wasted by counsel tor the defense consulting in tbe ante-room concerning the- shaj»e; in which they would enter the protest. Tbe Judge's patience was wearie*d out at last and be exclaimed that enough time bad been wasted for an Indian pow-wow to be held. Kenjble is not • here, nor any of the other defendants who have pleaded guilty. A friend of Kemble's, who came up from Phila delphia this morning, snvs be saw Kemble at his bank on Fourth street yesterday at 4 o'clock, after the news had been received that the plea of guilty had been entered in his name, and that be seemed as unconcerned and undisturbed as though be were in no way connected with the suit. Af ter Kemble's caw was disposed of, the witnesses against Leisenring, of Mauch Chunk, were called for, but oue, Ke|>- resentative Zern, not appearing, it was laid over, and the case of I'etrofl called. He was on hand in the Court room, sitting between his counsel, Judge Brewster and Col. Wm It. Mann, of Philadelphia. J adge Brews ter was at first disposed to a-k for the continuance of that cafe till another day, because of the absence of two witnesses for the defense, but after wards stated it was believed they were on the road, and therefore the cane would be proceeded with. Judge Brewster desired to challenge for cause each juror as be was called, but Judge Pearson objected until the box was full, when the counsel for the prosecution desired four of the jurors to stand aside, leading to a lengthy discussion of an hour and a half as to thsir right to make such a demand. The Judge at first ruled against them, but on Mr. Oowan arguing the matter and citing the authorities, chauged the ruling in their favor. Then Col. Mann cjballpnged each juror in turn, nubmit iog them to a stringent examination, and in more than one case the jurors answered that tbey bad not read the newspapers and knew nothing what ever about the case. One man bed read the papers and had formed an opinion, but thought it would be af fected by the evidence, but Judge Pearson permitted bim to remain in the box, Col. Mann Sling an exception thereto. As now constituted the jury ac about aa stupid looking a lot of pes «* OB* eM* wax* ten**- case will tie proceeded with this alter noon, the Court to sit till 6 P. M- THE AFTERNOON SESSION of the Court was tak<*u up by the openinsr address of the r)i?trict Attor nev and tbe examination of two wit nesses, Journal Clerk Allen and Rep resentative Harry Watson, of Mercer county. The District Attorney's ad dress occupied but twenty minutes, and was simply a plain statement of , tbe law in the case and of what the < Commonwealth expected to prove by Watson and McClay, the two mem bers Petroff is alleged to ha<*e cor- > ruptlv approached. Harry V\ atson s j testimonv was merely a rehash of the ; evidence given by him before the in- j vest-gating committee. He swore to three interviews with Petroff concern in? the matter, the first taking place about the Ist of March, a* the foot of the stairs in the Locbiel Hotel, when Petroff asked him how he would 'ike to be a "rooster." and told him there was business in tbe bill and that mem- 1 bers could make money bv voting for it. He stated tuat this interview took place direct'v after supper. On cross examination" Judge Brewster called his attention to his testimony before the committee, when he stated he was un able to recollect whether the interview took place before or after supper. He wanted to know how he came to have a l**tter memory a year Inter than two months afterw rd. He a'so called his attention to bis statement to the com mittee that Petroff had never offered him monev for his vote, i his brought Mr. Gowen, of the prosecution, to h : « feet, who desired to have what fol lowed of Watson's old U.-timonv rend. 11c understood it as an offer, although no actual offer Lad l>ee'n made. Judge Brewster objected, as he said the evi dence should be as to facts and not as to inferences or the witne.— l opinions. Matt Carpenter and Judge Black took part in the discussion. Carpenter for cibly stated the case. The prosecution had selected one sentence of witness' former testimony apparently contra dicting his evidence of to-day. and he judged it to be the Commonwealth's duty to protect the witness by having rend the rest of his evidence at that time, which would show there was no inconsistency. Watson also testified that Petroff came to his room on a night after the investigation com menced and pleaded with him to pro tect him from exposure; that when Petroff entered bis room, he found R. S. Frazer, member from Allegheny county, there ; that Frazer left befrre Petroff touched on the subject, and that Petroff remained in the neighbor hood of half an hour with him, and then left to take the 12.40 A. M. train for Philadelphia. Mr Frazer is here and will lie placed on the stand to morrow, when he will testify, as be did Ix forc the committee, that when be left Watson's room he went directly to his own and immediately rang the bell for a servant, and that before the ser vant came up Petroff walked in, in less than five minutes after the time he had left him in Watson's room. There was a jrreat deal of quibbling among the lawvers in objecting to the introduc tion of a printed copy of the House journal in evidence, fx-cause it was not a certified copy. The Judge overruled the objection. Journal Clerk Allen was called merely to establish the fact of the introduction of the riot bill, and the subsequent action on it by the House. Watson was • n the stand two hours, and his cross-examination is not yet finished. Franklin B. Gowen con ducted the direct examination, and Judge Brewster the cross. It is not anticipated the case will get to the jury before to-morrow night and |»erhaps not Ijefore Wednesday morning. Long speeches are expected when it cornea to be submitted finally to the jury. HARRISBI RO. Mar 9.—Judge Pear son. in answer to an inquiry from the District Attorney, said Kemble's plea should 1m; stripped of everything ex cept the formal plea of "guilty," and that hi.- protest be allowed to go on file as a statement for the benefit of the defendant, but it would have no bearing whatever so far as tbe plea was concerned, and should not be part of the record. The counsel for the de fense said they bad certainly misunder stood the Court when they presented this plea yesterday. They retired for consultation and were out for an hour In-fore they came to a conclusion. They then came into Court with a plea of guilty and a protest in the form as directed by tbe Court. The corrected protest is us follows: "Com monwealth vs. Wm. H. Kemble. De fendant at the time of tiling his plea to the bill of indictment protests that said plea shall not be construed as an admission that he did corruptly offer any money or thing of value to either or any of the persons named in the bill of indictment, and that said plea to said indictment is pleaded bv him pro forma, lie being unwilling further to contend." HARKISBI 80, March 10.—Interest in the bribery trials, inste ad of flagging, increase's daily, the attendance e>f S|M-C --tators to-day Ix-big largei than yester day or the day before. Representative Watson resumed the stand ibis morn ing, ready for further examination, but be was excused Representative Ma clay, of Mifflin county, was then called, and testified that Petroff. during the pending of the Riot bill in the House, told him that he (Petroff) wsi- author ized to make- it interesting for him (wit ness) if he -would vote for the measure He was not cross-examined. Judge Brewster then opened for tin* defence, lie urged tlx- jury to divest themselves of all partisan feeling in th« matter, and render a verdict according to the law und the evidence, lie said the defense would prove that Wathon was mistaken when he testified that he had these conversation* with retrod', and that the second one, in which the defcuduiit in alleged to have urged Watson not to e*por>e him, never took place. In conclusion he said there could he no conviction under the Common wealthV theory, and warned the jury to he careful that they did not wrongfully blast u life and murder justice itself. The defendant then testified : He de nied that either of the interviews men tioned by Watson had ever taken place ; he had never attempted to cor rupt Watson. He denied having told Maclay that he was authorized to make it interesting if ho voted for the bill. Petroff was cross-examined by Col. Goweu, but nothing new was elicited. Col. Gowen proposed to offer in evi dence the testimony of P. troll himself, to show his previous character, witu a view to the impeachment of hi» credi- Ullwy utj tt-wjiaww, but tiw dv (Ely* ttulUc Citis*u: It, IggQ. cidfd that this was inadmissible. Pe troff then retired. At the afternoon session the Court house* was crowded in anticipation of arguments from the distinguishedcoun sel engaged in the bribery case 3. As Senator Carpenter bad determined to leave for Washington, he made the opening addre>- instead of the closing. He said tbe question for th-* jury was, did Petroff use the argument that it would be financially well for the mem l>er approached if he roted for the Riot bill? Thi- was a violation of the statute. If the jory believe that such a proposition was made, and acquit the defendant, the actron would be a con fession that legislators caii !*.* bri » d with impunity If they considered the proposition made to Watson wa- an innocent pleasantry, they should not convict, but it wi>a!d W well for bersof thejLeg'.slature if tijey restrained their joking propensities. I. utilbecame to Harri>bur_' he was not informed of the definition of th r * word "Rooster, but he had learned that it was mem ber of the Legislature who expect* t » feather his nest with money. The west had no ''Rooster.'" How would vou like to lie a ' Rooster?*' Trans lated into English it simply meant, would vou like to take a bribe ?" In ibis case a regular proce-s of se duction bad been practiced. Ihe song of tbe tempter ws.s, "We get nothing; salaries are -mail and expense* large ; we must do this ." It was corrupt per suasion. After tbe r"|s- In-gan to draw, and the defendant began to fear, he went to Watson to have the matter fixed up. If Petroff had done nothing wrong there; would have l?wn no ne eessitv for ibis. Senator Curpenter criticised the mod ern improvement of allowing defend ant.-to testify in their own behalf. It was a benefit to innocent men, but a terrible hardship to the guilty. It of fered a premium for forgery. A briber wejuld just as commit that crime as not. The exculpatory statement of the- defendant should lie received with great caution, because of the great temptation to swear falsely. Watson was a disinterested witness, and could have no object in b'asting the reputa tion of Petroff. Defendant was not suf ficiently economical in his researches. He made a great mistake; in flatly con tradicting tbe testimony of such repu table' witnesses as Watson ami Maclay. This made two against one. He referred to the Legislature as having been notoriously corrupt, and expressed the he>pe that the jury were riot so lost to eluty as to pronounce the defendant innocent. If you acquit the defendant you will embolden every ras cal in the Commonwealth to resume his corrupt work in the Legislature. Counsel agreed on the 29th of March as the time for sentencing those who have pleaded guilty. }> H E VlO US COIJ It WIN TV RS. EM PERKINS' EXPKRIEM E WITH COLD WEATHER. rTolflo Commercial, March V] Eli Perkins spent yesterday at the Island House. He was lying still and getting ready for his lecture at. Owosso tei-night. When a Commercial r» porter called on the great truth teller he was musing about tbe weather. "Then vou have seen colder winters than we have had this winter, have you. Mr. Perkins?"asked our reporter. "Certainly young man. I have se*cn a great many very cold winters. Now the-re was the winter, of 1 ">SB " "But you we-r'nt alive then, Mr. IVr kins, were you V "I we-r'nt li'-v ! Who suys 1 wasn't ' Now if vou want information don't interrupt me. I'm telling you the truth. As 1 was saying, the winter of I>r>H I e-spe'cially rcinetnber. That winter I was eiifja(re-el doing missionary w r!; on a whaling vet-se'l in the: Aelriatic sea. 1 rernember tb<- A'lriatier froz<- ov<-r eighty-fetur feet thirk that winter. Of course; we; couldn't navigate our boat but we raised it up and drew it over the ie.-e. The ice was verrv clear, and when we saw a whale frozen u|» we use d to blast our way down through the* ice and get him." "Was that the coldest winter you ever saw, Mr. Perkins?'' '•Oh, no. I've wen a good deal colder weather than that. Tlx? winter of 1010 wa- colder. That year tin* snow drifted .so deep down on the equator, that when the HIHI returned north in the spring we had to all turn out and Hbovel out a path for her to return through. That year the crater of Mount Vesuvius froze over ami they used it for a skating rink Cows gave frozen milk that winter, and the only wny we could raise chickens was to let the hens net in the retorts of the pig-iron furnaces." '•But history don't speak of these things, Mr. I'erkins," suggested the re porter. "Oh, darn history. Them ain't any truth in the histories now-a-days. Wasn't I there? Then there was 17♦'» 1, another cold winter. The temperature changed so suddenly on the of Felt ruary thai the flames in the gas lamps frozi- stiff. The heat was gone but the light was left. This was the only time 1 ever -aw a eold flame, hut frozen light seemed to light the streets as well as warm light. This year Charles Francis Adams was born. He was frozen stiff at his birth and remained so for eighteen years. He informs me that his feet have never Iteen thoroughly warmed since. Boys skated over the crater of Mount Vesuvius again this winter.-" "But we eun hardly helieve these things, Mr. I'erkins. History don't substantiate what yoii hay." "What do I care about history ' I tell vou, young man, I'm telling you the truth, but if you don't want infor mation you needn't listen. I've been t• 1 1- ingyou about some pretty cold weather, hut the winter of I*ol was colder than any of the others. That year I joined an Arctic expedition but we got stuck in the ice off Florida and remained frozen up in the Gulf of Mexico for four vears. The Ksquimaux skated down the coast from Greenland that winter and wintered ill Mexico. All the rivers and lakes froze solid and liquid water wan worth a hundred dol lars a barrel. Whiskey barrels froze stiff. The only way 1 kept thawed our was by saturating tuy clothes in kero sene aud keeping ibcui constantly burning, while my feet hung iu a re tort heated to boil iron in, aud—and— and—" Our reporter looked up and the old man had fallen asleep. His teeth chat tered aud hi-> eyes glistened with an unearthly bistre. 100 much truth in one day had exhausted him. ■ —tfuufc-r—A'Lv cwidnJ*iU>.
