Attornev-General McVeagh hes been
vigorous and untiriug in hunting down
the star route ring, and has more evidence
than the public is aware. lle truss-«arched
all the records 0! the departments enn
nected with the star route contjuctst, and
confidential special agents have been sent
secretly to gather testimony on the line
of expedited route-i. Nothing has been
lett undone that could unearth evidence
of fraud. At first the star route ring
talked boldly on the supposition tlmt an
long get no member turned state's evi
dence. they were safe. Boasts were made
here in Washington that the investiga
tion would fail. it is apparent. now that
men who shared in the ring «re anxious
and uneasy, and it is predicted that some
ofthent will leave the country. Attorney
General McVeaeh and Postmaster Gen.
James are determined to prosecute the
ring. und they have evidence enough to
procure indictmew against numerous
parties. The post Aster-general has cop
ies of Dorsey’s correspondence with his
agents who procured petitions, for star
routes. Some original letters and docu
mentsthrowing light on methods em
ployed in Arkansas and the southwest
have been obtained, and depositions of
some persons who helped prepare the
way for expedited routes have been pro
cure: .
The Evening Star of Washington gives
a list of men who will be presented to the
grand jury for indictment. Among the
list i 315. B. Etkina, 'tormerly delegate in
the house of representatives from New
Mexico. Elkins was intimate with liar;
soy when the latter was in the senate‘ 1!
year or two ago and gave out. that he
made it fortune in mining npecnlntions
and he entaidished himself in grand style
in New York. Elkins by his influence
here got star contracts and had them
expedited while Kerns looked after the.
opt-ration of the lines. Ex-Congressmnn
McKihben is another man mentioned for
indictment. ale" J. B. Price of Missouri.
lint-Auditor Bit-Grew and his late deputy
Lilly, will also be presented to the grand
jury. McUrew claims that his duty as
assistant auditor was only to carry out
the directions of the Hecond Assistant
Postmaster. General Brady, and that.
therefore he cannot be held responsible
for nny wrong, but the sixth audiwr'is
invested with unutunl discretionary
powersto he used for the protection of
the government, but that he did not pro—
tc-ct the governun-nt as shown by favors
granted to star route contractors. Brady
is also on the list announced to be prone—
cuted, an is ex-h‘enator Dorsey and French.
Brady’s chief clerk, R. C. McCormick, is
also mentioned as one of these who may
be prosecuted. The trialfi when they
commence will necessitate the summoning
ofa very large number ofwitnesses from

A Washington dispatch of June 3d says:
Rumors of additional removals and of
fresh disclosures ilew thick and fast at
the postoliice department to-duy, but the
investigaling committee. in room- 59,
continued to sit uith closed doors. No
new developments were communicated
to the public. Auditor Mcfirew and
Deputy Auditor Lilly were still at their
ufl‘icea thisat’ternoon, but will be relieved
to morruw. Referring to a rumor that
the attorney general obtained evidence
ot‘sucha nature as to compromise Mc
(irew, and thatthe president’s summary
demand for his resignation was based
upon it, McGrew insists that he has done
nothing wrong. He says that he audited
accounts of mail contractors on certificates
of thesecond assistant postmaster gen
eral. All evidence thus far obtained for
prosecutions ofthe star service swindle-rs
is now in the hands of Special Assistant
Attorney General Cook. It is said to be
of the most damaging nature, clearly pro
viding a conspiracy and involving up
wardsoi twent individuals. Itisclaimed
that so far as florsey is concerned, evi
dence has been furu shed against him by
those with whom he had dealings and
with whom he failed to act squarely.
Althou 'li the ex-senator has secured the
Originals of letters and telegrams recently
published, showing how petitions for ex
pediting routes were made up in the far
west. it is believed that the attorney gen
eral has certified copies which will be
used against him. Acquaintances of
Dorsey say that, although he still main
tains his flesh. he is dreadfully nervous.
it has been announced that the ex-sena

New Mexico. it is known that he has

Flower Garden and Lawn.
If any seeding of grass or tnrfing is
to be done, attend to it early. that the
grass may become well established before
hot weather comes. In tnrflng, select
the soda with care, and endeavor to in
troduce no weeds. For seeding on light
soil, red-top is best, and for heavy clay
soils use Kentucky blue grass. Either
of these, with a quart of white clover
seed to the bushel, is likely to giveas
good nlawn in our climate, as when a.
mixture of a dozen kinds is sown. Select
only the best seed,“ there is a great
difference in quality in grass seeds. A
good topodreasing of ashes, plaster-guano
or line bone should be given the lawn
each spring. In the planting of trees and
shrubs always preserve the balance be—
tween the tops and the roots. While
thellawn is put in proper shape the ap
pemnce and comfort of the exterior of
the house should not be overlooked.
Most houses have a piazza or veranda of
some kind, and this should be furnished
with an abundance of climbing vines.
The following are among the best for
this purpose: Akebia, Virginia creeper,
wistarias, Dutchman's pipe, ever bloom
‘ ing honeysuckle,and climbing roses. For
lower climbers the large flowered kinds
;of clematis are desirable. With these
properly arranged, the veranda of a
house may be made attractive and aflord
acoml’ortable shade—[American Agri

Any one who wishes the especial ser
vice of a policeman will be accommo
dated on payment of a special fee, which
is passed to the credit of the city. The
Treasurer of the Police Department re
ceives from difierent parties for this'ser
vice from $%,000 to 830.0(1): year. Of
this amount the A. 'l‘. Stewart concern
paid near]? nine-tenths. They require a.
number 0 detectives in their store, and
their clerks are sometimes watched. The
New York Hotel has paid 81200 a year
for this service in one year, while the St.
Nicholas figures at double that sum.
Among the banks the Republic has
aid 8600, while the Park and
glerehants' have each paid 81%0. This
money, I presume, was to a large degree
spent in watching the habits of employee.
Leading clerks in banks and other places
of trust should be carefulli; looked after,
and the benefit of this is s own by the
{act that neither of these institutions has
sufl‘ered any defalcation. The New York
Stock Exchange must be cognimnt of
some rogues in its number for it , ays
83,000 a _year for simtlnr service. There
were 71,040 persons arrested in this city
last year. The highest number was
among laborers, who stand 11,725; the
lowest is clergymen. who are limited to
7, this being a scriptural number.-——[N.

clause of which expressl stipulated that
