District Court Office, Timaru, April 25 Sir* —1 have the honor to return my thanks for the copies of my telegrams touching Mr Justice Chapman and the illegal order for the production of telegrams. Itis said that a motion will be made in the Assembly tor their production next session.

D. R. Ward, D.J.” “Ward to Vogel. Timaru, July II (official). —Press telegrams state that you informed the House that my telegrams touching Judge Chapman closely resembled the forgeries of ‘Otago Times.’ ‘ Southern Mercury’ states Messrs Reynolds and Richardson said the same at Dunedin. Pray kindly compare real telegrams with forgeries. You will find them grossly dissimilar. Authoritative statements that they are nearly alike seriously prejudice me, as my telegrams are not printed, which forgeries of time [whilst forgeries of mine] are industriously circulated.—C. D. R. Ward, D. “ Vogel to Ward. Wellington, 13th July. Copies of original telegrams are to be laid on the table of each House.— Julius Vogel.”
