IT SEEMS NOW that if the counsel for
the Prosecution in the Star route case
had not taken the course they did last
FridHy the prosecutions would have
been barred by the statute of lmita.
tions. The alleged conspiracy to de-
fraud the government, upon which the
charges against General Thomas, j..
Brady and his confederates are founded
dates hack to October lst, 1873, and
after Saturday the prosecution would
have been barred by the lapse of three
years. The Grand Jury of the Crilni-
nal Court was empaneled three weeks
ago, but without acting on any of the
Star route cases, adjourned until Octo.
Der Sd, therefore, an indictment found
against General Brady after October LIST
would have been void, and to revent
the pro secution from falling to the
ground the counsel for the government
came into Court on Friday with bill
of information. Though it is creditable
to the President, Attorney-General Nc
Veagh and Postmaster 6 General James
for making this important discovery
and taking advantage Of statute
which allows indictments before the
courts without having been sent to the
Grand Jury, 80 the omission is not
