THE FAST MAIL.
Dashing Across the Country
at Lightning Speed.
HOW THE HAILS WERE PREPARED AM CARRIED
A Misunderstanding Between the Railroad
and Post Office Officials.
THE DELIVERY IN WASHINGTON.
The snow was falling last and the wind whistled Ql
fully through tlio trees in Su Paul's church yard as
the hands m the old clock tower overhead pointed to the
hour ol ball-past one o'clock. The night was dark, and
the scene at tbo Post Office was dreary iu the extreme,
so lar as the weather was concerned, hut t ho bright lights
aud the busy motions or the employes engaged in
arranging for the dopariuro oi the last mail train gave
uniniation to the picture. Two hundred men were em
ployed iu assorting, weighing uud marking the bugo
piles of newspapers and letters destined to go by the
early traiu south and westward.
At last a voice ot authority utters the welcome
WnrJs "All Right," and the tollers cease their
labor U is now 2:15 A. M. and tbo lights grad
ually glowing dimmer. Up trow the subterranean
cellars oi the building comu the later workers, and,
following the example of tboso who went away nearly
an hour before, they, too, disappear as mysteriously
as their predecessors.
Iu an hour or two tho last mail takes us departure,
and the "Truthful James'' of the l'ost office, through
hi- Jucksounu uide-de-cump of the railway mini ser
Tico has issued his ti ll Ibul unless the Ukhald's im

New Brunswick, Trenton, Baltimore, Wilmington,
Washington, Uicliuiond and other points further South
and Southwest is In the l'ost Office an hour earlier than
usual. It must remain untouched; that there is some
trouble about getting the mail wugous across the North
River alter throe o'clock lor a lust train that leaves an
hour and thirty minutes later! Tho hint hus been
heeded, l'cu minutes inter the Hsiialu wagons empty
tneir contents into Postmaster Juntos' cellars.
Kor twenty oi thirty miuuies there is a polling shower
ol papers?in mimicry of the pe.ting storm without?
as they lly heller skelter through tho air, reucb their
mars with unerring aim. uud slide smoothly into tho
sacks beneath the hexes Then immense bundles of
HKiiAiusure quickly weighed, the postage reckoned
and the papers hurled into tbo wagous that stand
without the dimly lighten entrance, on top of all uro
tnrowu the light letter sacks, uud the llrsl stage of
llo> postal work is done. Preparing to start at three
o'clock llie muil wugous meet at tne Corllandl Street
Kerry other wagons belonging to the Express company
ladcued with many thousands more of Ukbalds lor
distribution among tlio news agents aluug
the circuitous route ol the last mail train
Al 4:26 the luggurd express wagous uump their last
load Into the ear, uud away the train glides on lis mis
sion ol civilization.
It is dark and dismal. Tho snow patters on the
window panes ol i-puedcr'a cab uuu obscures his
Iisioii, wtiilo tho glaring headlight poiuls the way iu
Ihe race ol the last tram ucro-s lour stales. Ever uud
tiiou as they "slow up" or lly by u station they stop
liiftsorting to discharge uud receive mans.
At Newark, which waa reached a low minutes be
hind tune, about it,000 papers were discharged, and
the train sped on luster tiiuu ever. Near Monmouth
Junction tiio glass of the headlight ol the locomotive
w.is blown out leaving all ill darkness uud doubt. Iu
this dilemma there was no alternative but to run
slowly on upprouchiug the box signals, uud the conse
quence was that Trenton was touched 10 minutes lulu.
Here passengers wore ta. ell III an empty couch that had
been attached at Jersey City, uuil again the iruln sped
awuy lor tho banks oi the Potomac. Arriving In West

? WASTKD HOUR.
The fast mall train, about which so much has been
?aid und wrnten of late and which started on Its In
itial trip yesterday morning, icoins not to ruu so
smoothly as una anticipated. It appears, for some
reason which ut the present writing Is unacconntuhlr,
that u very serious misuiidcrstundiog In regard to the
time ut which the mulls must no delivered on
board the train at Jersey Cliy has arisen butween
tho I'ost Office autlioritirs and the railroad
officials. While iho urraugeincnts lor tho train
were being made, it is shown conclusively bv tho
correspondence that traiu 27, which starts ut twenty
live miuutes past lour o'clock Irom this side ol the
river, was tho one selected nud agreed upon. Nal
u?aliy enough, the I'ost office olllcluis tlionglit that by
pulling tho mail ou the lour o'clock A. M. bout lor
Jersey City they would have aiuplo limo to luaku tho
couneciion. The lienoral Superintendent ol tho l'eun
syivannt Hniliojd Company, however, notitled the
Division Superintendent ol itie Hallway Mull Service
that the mails lor that traiu must col be rocclved later
lliun hall-past three o'clock, over an hour before
the schedule time for tho starting of the

as iho lour o'cloi k boat from Now York arrives

[BY TELEUUAl'H TO THE HERALD.]
Washington, Dec. 18, 1878L
Tho fast mall train reached Washington on time this
gftemoou?namely, at 12:A?? making the journey from
Jersey City In about oight hours. Tho usual crowd ol
newsdealer* was on hand, nod, as Iho mat! agents were
good onough to eaaort the newspaper packages ?n
route, the bundles were tossed to them nlmoei as noon
as lb* train bad slopped at the bumpers of tlje depot.
A few luuotDU Jsler tbe wbilo sheets were scattered
far and wide over ibe capita!, and lUo Hssai.d was
delivered at the earliest hour on the day oi publication
it has ever been seen tu Washington.

The express tram and the last uia.l, its successor,
have rovulutiouized ibis whole matter of tbeNevv Yorlc
dailies in Washington, where it was unusual to look
lor tUein until about six o'clock, when the day's occu
pations were over and business people bad retired to
their homos, llut now the IIxuam> is taken at ibe
government department! and bureaus and among law
yers ai d merchants throughout the city as extensively
' as (he local tuoruing papers.

It is an wU aavuiL' that Washington never knows
what is going on in Washington until (lie New York
papers get bore, I'ormeriy this knowledge was with
held until fiwe in the evening, hut now it is wtthm
every one's reach at lunch time, thanks to the enter
prise which set the last mail at work and brings ibe
New York papers here early in the afternoon. It is
suppo-ed ILe Post Olliee authorities will continue the
present pian ol distributing the iiowi bundles Irom the
railroad depot u.sieau ol irom the Post (Hhce building.
In this way the t.me of the journey iroui the depot

are whisked oil' to the news stand*

public by the tune they would, under a strict ob

THE EXTRADITION TREATY.
A FUGITIVE FORGE IS SURRENDERS ON HEARING
OF THE BRENT CASE?A RING OF THREE.
Detective I'nilip Koilly, ol th? Central Olltce, arrivo I
In this city curly yesterday morning, having iu bis
custody William F. Volt man, whom be bail arrested In
Uamtltou, Ontario, Cuuuda, on a charge of lorgery.
Tbe Ucicctivo bud some trouble iu Cauuda, upon the
ttrut arrest ot Vcltmuu, regarding the Extradition
treaty, but when tbo decision of tbe English govern
ment In tbe Brent case was announced Veltmau tele,
graphed to District Attorney l'ltclps ibat bo was will
ing to return to tbis city. on this Detective
Iteilly went back to Cunada and brought bun
here. Tbo charge against Voltman is that on Juno 7
last he lorged the indorsement of Messrs. llryco and
Smith, wholesale liquor dealers at No. 83 Front street,
on several checks amounting to about $30,000, and on
tbe aatuo day with withdrawing $31,000 lrotu the
Merchants' Exchange Bank, No. 369 Broadway. Velt
mun's accomplices, a man named Leitb and another
named Smythe, are held at present iu Ludlow Street
Jatl in delHUlt ol $30,000 bait. Vel'.man was taken to
tbe Court ol Geueral Sessions yesterday und fully com
mitted to tbe Tombs.
"LED ASTRAY. "
Tbo story of this extraordinary caxo is us follows:?
About tbe mouth of May, 1173, Wililum F. Veltman
wss employed as cbiel elerk and bookkeeper by Messrs.
Bryce & Smilti, wholesale liquor dealers, at No. 83
^ront street. In time be gaiued the entire conildcuce
of the ttrui, aud took charge of their bank accounts.
Messrs. Bryce A Smith have a large business, und a
deposit or withdrawal ol irom $10,t>00 to $13,quo was
nothing unusual. About lour years ago Vciluiuii held a
rc.-pousibie position in tbo Foqrib National Bunk, and
here bo uiadu tbo ucquuuiluuce ol un elderly luau
named William 11. Luiih, who then icsided at No. 833
l'acitlc street. Urouklyu, but who at present may be
Iouud in Ludlow sircet Jail. Mr. Leitb, accordiug to
Detective Phil lteihy's stuleiuout, is a notorious
scoundrel, und at present there are lour or live lii
Uictmeuts uguiusl buu iu tbo District Attorney's ollico
tor various olleuccs. Mr. Leltli quietly opened uii ac
count lu the Fourth National Bans, and thus made the
acquaintance ol Veltuiuu. I bey ofteu mot together,
aud tbe result wus that Leah's account was overdrawn
to the amount ol about $8,ouu. Both Veltinuu and
Leilh were arrested, upon the Investigation into Ibis
case, und, alter oeiug locked up lor a long time, they
were released. Leitb, however seems to buvu followed
up Volltnuu, and bu was otlcu seeu iu conversation
with btm when ttio latter oolained bis position In
Bryce A Smith's store. Previous to Juno
last Letlh resided nl No. 863 Paclllc street,
Brooklyn. Nearly opposite the bouse resided I
a Baptist mluitter. .Mr. Leitb cultivated tbo
minister's acquaintance, aud one day tbo lultor stated
that, in iiddiliou to bis uiiuisterlul work, bo also took
a greut interest iu real estate, and quietly lollowcd up
that busiuese iu New York. A lew days later Mr.
Leitb called on tbo minister and stated to him that be
bad a sou who wished to ougage iu the resi esiato
business und be wae willing to give $3,000 cash to "set
ban up," "aud," udded Mr. Leah. "1 think yon are
tbu best man to see in this business.'
DKl'OHlTINU POUUKD CHECKS.
Mr. Lcitti introduced bis sou to the minister and
produced $3,000 in cash, which wus to bo invested in
the Business.
The nuuwier brought the young man over to New
York und the money wus deposited In tbe Union Trust
Company. Then, accordiug to Detective Keilly's the
ory, Leah, Sr., in carrying out bis plans, arranged
with Voliman to doposit lorged checks to tbe credit of
Messrs. Bryce A .Smith to the amount of $30,000.
These checks were signed by prominent merchants and
apparently indorsed by Mryca A Smith, und
were deposited in tbu Merchants' Exchange Na
tional Bunk ou tbo morning of June 7 last.
Id tuo ulieruoon ol the sumo nay Volt
uiau presented three withdrawal checks, one
lor $13,000, one for $7,000. uud one for $3,0ju Tbo
paying teller hesitated ubout paving out so great an
uiuouul ol moucy, but ou releruuco to the books bo
noticed tbo $30,000 deposit und, as it was not UliUsUal
lor Messrs. llryde A Smith to withdraw such an
amount, lie handed over the caah. All the checks
were certified, und apparently signod in tbo usual
muuner.
COl'LD NOT EXPLAIN.
Later in tbe aricruoon Mr. L. Apgur. tbe casbter of
tbe bauk, while looking over tbo nooks, became suspi
cions regarding the amount of one of tbo checks de
posited iu the inoining. He sent a messenger to tbo
itrm whose nuinu was ullixod, and to Ills greut
coustcrnulion usc< rtuiued that It was a lorgery. 'l'Ueu
bo obtained a coach und drove to tbe olllcu of Messrs.
Bryce A Smith, und tuqinrcd if ihey bud tbat morning
deposited a cbcck lor $13,000. Mr. ltryce re
plied In tho negative. "Well, sir," said Mr. Apgur,
"Your bookkeeper was up ai our bank mis morning,
and deposited one check lor $13,000 and several
others." Mr. Bryce wus ustouuded uud culled tbe
bookkeeper (Veil wan) up to bun and questioned him.
"Wore yoa to tbe hunk io-dHy r" "No. sir. 1 wus not,"
replied VellniaD. Mr. Bryce then said ibat If a check
bad been deposited it would be recorded in the bank
book; but this book could uot be lound. Volt man then
agreed to go to the bunk, una although bo
was positively idchlltiod lis the limn who de
posited the checks bo stoutly domed having
anything to do with tbo transaction. His explana
tions were not satisfactory to M.. Bryco or to tnu bunk
oinciuls, uud be was at oucc given Into tbo custody ol
Oillcer Finn, ol tbe Broauwsy squau. Upon Ins arrest
be admitted that be bud received tbe check lor $13,tX)0
from William H, Leitb, nl tbe Union Trust Company's
oltlcc, aud be was iu meet bun that evening ui South
Ferry to divide tbe money. Voltman was ition taken
?o the Tomb.-, w here be was held by Judge Murray In
default ol $30.cuo bail.
IX Till? TOILS.
Superintendent Wulllog placed mo case In tho bands
ot Detective l'lnl Keilly, who on ibe same evening,
and accompanied by Mr. Apgar. went to Velliuan's
house, No. lb 8(cmng street, Brooklyn, but alter a
strict search tbey louud notlitug that would eouu ct
bint wttb ibe case. Then Keiilv devoted bis ulientiou
to find Leub, and alter union dltbculiy be succeeded.
On scutchlug Lelth's valise be lound a number
ol lottcrs from Veltiiinu to Leub, and also
the stubs of tbe Identical cnecks deposited
in tbe Merchants' Kxcbuuge lluuk to the
supposed credit of Messrs. ilryce & Smith. Tbe de
tective also lound a genuine signature ol "Bryco ,k
am lib" and about a do/.en slips containing copies of
tbe same, evidently being attempts to copy tbe slgua
turo exactly. Leub was arraigned before Judge Hur
ray and held In f'JO.OOO bail. Tuts lie succeeded In
obtaining and was again tree, but a tew days later was
again arrested on a civil suit Instituted by lLo bank
officials, and anotuer ?90,1)00 bull was required. This
be was untblo to give, so be it now tu Ludlow Street
Jail.
CAUINU AXOTUkH MAX.
Detective Koilly, ou questioning Letth, ascertained
that ou Juno 7 (tlie day Veitman tvas arrested) Veil
man bad given hdward D. Smylho, of No. 12N Oelvalb
avenue, Messrs. ltryce & Smith's bank book and $.'>,000
In cash to lake homo. Suiytnu was arrested end on
his person was lound u cipher, which an expert
readily deciphered. It contained tbe amounts ol the
checks, and uitogetner corresponded with the torgery.
Smytho claimed that be got the cipher irom Veitman,
and wits not acquainted with tts purport. Smythe
joined bi> friend's friend In Ludlow Street Jail, and is
still there.
LKaVIXU OX STRAW HAIL.
Lellh and Smytbe being now disposed of, tbe story
returns to the principal. \ Oilman. About tbe UStb of
June he was taken beiore one ol the Judges ol the Su
preme Court on a writ ol habeas corpus, tor tlie reduc
tion ol the amount ol bail, and the Court reduced It to
$1u,00Ul Subsequently bo wus again in court to be ad
mitted to bail. Judge Donotiue accepted tlio
surety, ? woman, una be was dlscbaiged. As
soon as ho was lieu be departed lor parts
unknown. Ibe oank ollicials soon ascertained that tlio
bull wus worm less. and they again called on Supertn
tvudent Walling, asking that Veitman might be recap
tured. Detective Keuiy again tooa up the Case, uud,
niter diligent inquiry, learned that ins "man" was
living in V inceDiies, lud. Reilly at oi.ee look the curs,
and on his nrrivul at Vincennus found that his bird bad
Down. All liace ol tbe lugitivv being lost tbe detective
returned to this city, lie did not, however, give up tho
esse, and altor a great deal of perseverance
bo ascertained that a ninu answering Velltnau's de
scription wan living in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Superintendent Walling then wrote to Ibe Cbiel of
Po.ice ol Hamilton, giving a lull description ol Veit
man, and in reply was In formed that eucti n man was
there. The Superintendent again nut Keilly on tho
case, and on tbe latter's urrivul at Hamilton bo quietly
watched for Ins rouu. finally be saw biui coming out
oi the Dominion Hotel, and, having luiiy idem.bed
him tu his own mind, obtained the assistance ol tba
Hamilton police, and aoou afterward VeUtnaa ?u
agiiu under lock and key.

"Then,su d Detective Keilly, "the trouble bessn.

and alter giving straw bail hM ran awa.r, and thai I
w .m soul on to take bun back for trial." The iiiagis

AMUSEMENTS.
EDWIN BOOTH A8 nil'HKLLKO.
The miserable ulgtit, with suow. siush aud street eora
blockaded, luroitbcd a good reason for staying at
home, but Mr. Kdwm Booth's Richelieu overruled It.
The Lyceum Theatre lntd a good audience, and it was
as warm as the weather wus cold. Mr. Booth was culled
belore the curtain after each act, and applauded
through the whole course of the play.
the Richelieu of Mr. Booth is well known to the
Now York public, though It Is one ol his later person
i aliens. It has not the grandour of 1'orrcst, who made
| It a niagniliceni work of itnporlal declamation and
i oratory, but it Is more true to the character us Bulwer
described it. Richcl'ou, according to liulwer,
i was '? a inac of two characters." For
rest tnado him a unit. Mr. Booth expresses
the huuior, the weakness, the contradictious and the
Inconsistencies ot the man. Hero Is a statesman who
pretends, and really bolievos, that his sole art by
which ho raised Fruuco was that ol justice, yet who
condescends to deceive Huguol and to delude bis friend
Joseph. An element of treachery existed in ail this
lUHjcsty. It is ibis element which Mr. Booth
develops to <U lull cxicut. Ho makes Richelieu
us maoh of Hi" lux as i ho lion, and
tho subtlety of his methods of expression sro
as true to nature us the ability of Uulwi-r will allow.
Bulwer is nothing II not theatrical. Ho wrote tbo
pluy to make ?n elloct, .and thero is no question but
tbut he succeeded. Shakespeare gives Mr. Booth
superior opportunity, nut while no actor can fully
rise to tho ideal ot Hamlot or Macbeth, Richelieu
uau bo conquered and entirely roalized. Mr.
Booth has mudo It a heautilul piece of realism, lull ol
color, lite and vigor, and, very justly, does not prcseut
Richelieu as a hero without a lault. but as a great man
with sorious faults and weaknesses, combined with
strength.
The general performance wus good. Mr. Milnes
Levick played Barudus excellently, and developed the
part to its limits, without seeking lo overweight It
wuh lorced oflects. A clearly drawn and manly sketch
of lie M.xuprut was given by Mr. Frederick Robinson,
hut this actor was altogether loo boisterous. It
may l>e true, as He Muuprat boasts, that
ho lias "a voice within his soul whoso cry could drowu
the thunder," hut that is no reason lor doing it. Mr.
Kobiusou has plenty of force und energy, but be
should moderate his expressiou. Fraucois was well
placed by Mr. Whiteear und Joseph by Mr. Fierce,
and a very pieusiug leprcseututlon of Julio was giveu
by Clara Jcunings.
TARE THEATRE.
Peal* of laughter rung through this cosey theatre
last evening, Leila, a time honored favorite, once
again assorting her triumphant away before a well
tilled house. Iq Mr. Brougham's well known adapta
tion Lotta has already made herself famous, and It is
oulv necessary to add that in "LIUlo Xell and the
Marchioness'1 the versatility of this clever and
cheerful little artist was enthusiastically ap
preciated us of yore. Indeed, one might
Imugino that the Inclement weather nerved
the bright and indomitable lady to extra cli'oris
for seldom has sho infused such vim and, at times,
such feeling into her dual rulet, which are now Insepar
ably associated with her name. Considering tbo
limits ol the stage, the piece was admirably presented,
the support oviocntly unuiuiug aatisiacuon, lor it
must be remembered that many euiiucni actors have
already appeared to advantage iu the more prominent
parts. Iu Mr. W. H. Crane, ilio qollickirg Dick Swiv
cller. bad un excellent representative?0110 who evi
dently appreciated the idea ot the genius who created
him. The contortionist Quill, with the proverbial
bandy legs, was personated with appropriate rascality
by Mr. P. A. Anderson, whoso deportment and ges
ticulations were well calculated to excite terror in the
liouri ol uny creditor. Grandfather Trent lell to the
lot of Mr. J. W. Carroll, u carelul and conscientious
actor, wuosc impersonation last uighl won general ad
miration. Altogether the performance was exceedingly
creditable, the lair sceno being particularly attractive,
presenting as It did au opportunity lor the introduc
tion ot udditionai I oh tures ol aiuusemout. Among
those uiiiibl bo mentioned the acrobatic (cats of
Messrs. Hunnols, Murray and Clifford, 'throughout
the pieco the heroine was hailed with warm tokens of
approbation, and there is liltlo doubt tbat "Little Xell
and the Mureniouess" will command attention especially
during the approaching lesiive season, a lime upon
which Charles Dickens?iroin whose "Old Curiosity
Shop" the piece is taken?expended soino oi his
noblest thoughts.
GRAND OPERA HOOHE.
The spectacular drama ol the "Dluck Crook" was
produced, after weoks of preparation, at this eslab.
lishment lust night. The pleco Is given with good
scenery, and for a first night everything worked as
well aa could bo expected. Mr. K. J. Mack played
llertzog in a satisfactory manner; the Rudolph of Mr
Butos was not a retnarkablo eflort, and ucilher was tho
Count Wollcustein of Mr. franco. Miss Tbtresa
Wood was as pert a Carline as ever played that part,
and invested tho character with much mirth and dash,
tier duel with Greppo (Mr. Harrison) caused two re
calls. Miles. Moriacchi and Adrians lairly divided the
honors ol the dunce and wore repeatedly appinuded
in tho ballet, especially the ballot in the third act.
Many of tbo best icaiurus of tho variety entertain
ment were introduced in tho palace scene, ami
were loudly applauuod, the perlormance on the crystal
goblets being particularly good. Tho drama sectus to
have lost none of its old attractions. Ballet, marches,
sensations, special acts and surprises all lollow each
other in rumd succession, and II the "Black Crook."
as now produced, is not given with all tho elaborateness
which distinguished us first representations, it is at
least given In a style worthy ol the reputation of the
theatre. The curiam did not lull until a late hour last
iiigiit on tho translorinatlou sccue at the cioso ot the
play.
OEBMAN1A THKATBE.
The Germania Theatre afforded to tbo German public
last evening two ol the tnost amusing perioriniocoe we
havo ever attended there. The Urol was entitled
"Morning Hours of a ttoubretie," and gave t'rl Cot
trclly au opportunity to rovel In vocal monologues
and piquant inimlcry. The second play was "Nemos!*,
or C'brist and Jew," by Ketch, a product of the roli
gious troubles ol Germany, which Is a clever but rutb
lesn persiflage ol priest rulo and bigotry, llerr Witt,
us the "1'ious Lambkin," was intensely comical, but
hud Ins iinpersonutiou teen given to utt audience of
devout Catholics, he would certainly liuvo been stoned
instead ol being laugbod ut. The eoupleta sung by
>'rl. Cot I roily were Intensely funny umi drowncu by
the laughter of the audience, llerr Keicb's play cele
brates the triumph of civil inarrtugo over the religious
nuptial ceremony and of religious icouoclastn over tho
holy traditions of the Church?coi tal nly a dangerous
subject, that would l>o only palatable to an audienoe
composed of fico thinkers.
