The public has not besn altogether watisfiod with the conduct of the star route procoedings, and the latest de- velopments are not likely to diminish the general the firat case, indictment by the usual process of grand jury investigation was omitted, and an antiquated and obsolite form of proceeding by infor- mation substituted. This process has dissatisfaction, In out tho cases against Brady, Dorsey & company. Tt is generally understood that the process of information was taken up in preterence to indictment because in the latter case much of tho most important evidence for the pros- ecution would have been barred out by the statue of limitation prior to the meeting of the grand jury in Oe- tober. Just what the public are in- terested in knowing is why the cases made up and the evidenco presented in July and Soptember at which times the district grand jury wasin session and roady to act upon such subjects as might have come before them through the hands of the district attorney. It ig a well known fact that the grand jury was adjourned in July, and again in Soptember and that the general ex- pectation wasthat the attorney-general would present his evidence before thoir final adjournment in October. It now turns out that by the failure of the government to make up their | wers not cases for thoe consideration of the grand jury prior to their September adjournmeni the most damaging testimony against the star route swindlors has been practically thrown away. Such being the case nothing remained for the at- torney general but to revive the obsc- lote common law process of informa- tion and endeavor by this means to introduce tho evidence which could not by the usual process have been presented againat the aceused. The responsibility for this serious blunder lies botweon Attorney Gen- eral MacVeagh and District Attorney Corkhill. Current rumor at Wash- ington has represented Mr, Cork- hill a8 hand in glove with Tom Brady and lis wicked partners and as willing for obvious reasons to assist them ofticial- ly escaping from tho effects of their guilt. Tt has also been reported that Mr. Corkhill was perfoctly aware that failure to bring the star route cases before the grand jury prior to their September adjournment would great- ly weaken if it did not destroy the Tir democratic roosters have been ypulled in, Fiuumore county refuses to take any more railroad ring in her's.

Sexaror Vest has promised to champion the bill approprinting §5,- 000,000 for the improvement of the strength of the prosecutiou, and, knowing this, that he deliberately re- frained from making snch present- ment until he was too late end then adjourned the jury in order to pre- vent tho possibility of proceeding by indictment. On Tuesday the district attorney roso in court and made a personal ex- planation of his relations to the star route cases. Karly in the history of the cause the attorney general came to him andstated that owing to the heuvy duties of his office ho had as- sigued othér counsol for the prosecu- tion of Brady ani Dorsey and explic- itly releived him from duties in the premises. District Attorney Corkhill further went on to say that before adjourning the grand jury he went to Mr, MacVoagh and asked him if he had any business to lry beforo it, notifying him of the proposed adjournment in October.

A telegram need not be taken to an oflice which is distant, or when it is unuecessary or impossible to digpateh it at once. The sender may aflix a postago stamp to the form, and may put it in the nearest lotter-box. Should no telegraph office be acces- pible, the sender of a mersago may post it with the certainty that, if the envelope be properly mark it will be transmitted, fre of extra charge, at the neavest telo- graph oftice. Under the new system order 1t will not be necessary to keep a sep- arate sot of telegraph stamps or forms postage stamps, and, if there be difl culty in procuring the forms, ordin- ary paper will suftice.
