DOrsey's Connection with the stn,
Route Swins;Ie,

Route SwinGIe.
San Francisco, May l0,--A dispatch from
Portland, Oregon, says the kilograms from
Denver, Colorado, which have been
published, giving information that
legal proceedings had been com.
menced against ex-senator Dorsey, of
Arkansas, new secretary of tho national
republican committee, for services rendered
to obtain an increase of tie mail ser vice and
get additional pay therefor on star routes in
Oregon, attracted much attention here. more
so from the fact that it was stated that the
papers on which the suit had been
instituted al Denver had been received there
from well known attorney at Portland, and
that the claimant was well known poli,i.
clan here. The Oregonian set afoot an
inquiry to-day and got to tho bottom of tho
transaction. The history Of It fully
identifies ex-senator Dorsey with tne
star route business. The claimant
in.tho suit is Frank ID. Wilcox, who though
formerly connected with politics in Arkansas,
has not appeared prominently in politics
here. He went 10 Arkansas from Illinois in
1861, and became acquainted with S. w.
Dorsey. lie was secretary of the state repub.
llcan committee of Arkansas, though
be-. never held any other oiHee
and bore prominent part In the election Of
Dorsey to the senate. Desiring to get cut OF
pvliues no left Arkansas and came 10 Oregon
10 1877. When Dorsey began 10 operate in
the star routes in Oregon
no remembered that Wilcox had
come to this state, and his relations with him
had been Of tho most intimate kind. Ho
fixed on Wilcox as the man to help him
to work up 10 higher figures tho mail routes
