Vain Attempt to Capture The James
brothers.

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 31-A Courier
Journal Bowling Green special says ::
An organized effort was made on Fri
day night to capture the James broth
ers, in Logan county, near AdairsviIle.
1t had been rumOred for several days
that the robbers were III that neighbour
hood. A woman wrote to Governor
Black burn that they intended to attack
the Louisville and Northwestern Rail
road at Colesburg soon. Blackburn re
ceived the letter at Yorktown and turn
ed it over to the railroad authorities,
but In doing this and org anizing several
days were lost. Detectives organized
an attacking party, which was under
the direction of Hunter, the man who
captured Cove Kennedy. The posse
met at Russelville on Friday evening,
sixteen men strong, selected with
special reference to their cool courage,
and armed to the teeth with Winchester
rifles, double barreied shotguns and pis-
tolls. They arrived at t A. NJ. at the
house OF Hites, near Adairsville, where
the robbers were known to have been
a few days previous. They surrounded
the house, but the birds had flown a few
days in advance.

Wells. Fargo & CO

WASHINGTON, October 31.--Post-
master General James said to Represen-
tative Page a few days ago that efforts,
which were unsuccessfully put forth last
Winter to procure an order from his
predecessor to stop the carrying Of let
tiers by Wells, Fargo & Co., have re-
Gently been renewed. Page thereupon
briefly recapitulated the main points of
the case, and subsequently presented to
James copy of the printed letter to
Key, together with the arguments of
the Pacific Coast journals and other pa
pers, in opposition to the proposed in
reference. The Postmaster General
promised to give the matter his per-
sonal examination, and remarked that,
unless it could be shown that the Ex-
press Company failed to purchase the
necessary number of stamped envelopes
from the Government, or that it had
violated the Postal laws, he would not
interfere with it's business.

thority that Grant is urging General
Beale for the Navy Department. and it
is known that Beale is anxious for the
nomination. Grants intimacy with
him has been marked. He was Beale's

Charges Against Judge Key in the Star
Route BUSINESS.

-
Route Business.
New YORK, October 3l.-The Times
to-day prints another chapter in the
Star route frauds, presenting new fea-
lures in Judge Keys administration of
the Postal Department, and his white
washing of the frauds. 1T says At
the very threshold Of the Department
the new Postmaster General was pre-
sented with report from Tilcott Viii
liams on the results Of an inquiry he
had been permitted to make on conai-
ton that the results be submitted prior
to publication. The document was a
plain, aight-forward, careful state
ment of facts, going somewhat infinitely
into details and bringing out very
clearly the character. purposes and
methods of the Star route schemes.
The results of the inquiry, which Post
master General Key had required to be
submitted to him before publication,
are now fer the first time published. If
he made the requirement for the pur-
pose OF preventing publication, he SUE
ceeded. That that was his object is an
inference entirely consistent with his
subsequent course regarding Tyner's
report lie had early in his term full
knowledge Of al! the essential facts re
garding the Star route frauds. After
ward in Tyner's report he had absolute
Of this knowledge. He
did nothing, but after two years Of re-
tirement he comes to the surface as al
apologist for the authors and abettors Of
these frauds. He might better have
kept still and let, if he could, the evil
he did get its righteous penalty without
calling public attention to his humiliat-
ing connection with it,
