ENGINEER EADS,
He is Very Sansuine that His Ship Rail.
way Scheme VIII BE Successful.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 10.-Captain
James B. Eads, who arrived here yesterday, will
start for Mexico in few days TO have his Tehuan-
tepee grant confirmed by the Mexican Congress.
He viii then go TO Tampico, where some of his
engineers are surveying a habor for the United
States Government. Thence he will proceed TO
the Isthmus, where he will spend a month and
make a thorough inspection of the route for his
snip railway. This done, he Will sail for San
Francisco, and, as consulting Engineer of
The State Of California, examine the mouth
Of the Sacramento River. From thence he
goes TO Oregon, where he viii inspect the mouth
OF the Cumberland River and Humboldt Bay. He
viii then return to St. Louis and shortly alerward
visit Toronto, where he will inspect the harbor,
at the invitation of the British Government after
which he viii sail for England and Holland.
captain Eads is thoroughly sanguine that his
snip railway scheme will be successful. His ad-
wees from Mexico are even more favorable than
he anticipated. He has three parties Of engineers
now at work on the IsthmuS, and q rapid advance
Is being made in the surveys. The Mexican gov
eminent is also aiding him in having eight en-
6lneeIs and gang of seventy iaborers engaged in
surveying and cutting passage twelve feet wide
through the forest from q point On the Uspanapa
River, thirty-five miles from the Gulf where the
railway IS 70 begin, TO the pass in the Cordil-
the reason why he feels so sure that his rail
way will be built is because there are three
possibilities either one of which is almost a Ger
talnty. believe Congress will give us the legis-
latlon asked for. In fact am almost sure Of it.
But If America will not do this, the Mexican con-
eeSsiOn to me names no particular government /
snail carry the grant 10 England and what viii
DC done there. They win not be blind TO its adj
Nah'ages if Congress is, and in the event that
can get no government aid can build the rail
way by private enterprise. 1 have canvassed the
situation so thoroughly that 1 know this can be
oonei but don't want TO take this last altcrna-
I'VE The route by the Isthmus is only thousand
miles longer than the average Of the transconti-
Mental railway, and this furnishes sure remedy
against carrying monopoly. But if private en-
terprlse builds the road there is guaranty that
me same syndicate might not get control OF the
runway as well as the Isthmian route, and thus
prevent the COInOpfitiou desirable

AS TO GOVERNOR FLANDERS,

of soaring off very many who would otherwise

| Arrests of Straw Bondsmen In Phila-
delphia- Other Arrests to Follow and
Important Disclosures Anticipated.
PHILADELPHIA, May 6.-United States Com
missioner Smith this evening issued warrants
| for the arrest of five persons, charged with
| having committed frauds upon the govern
ment in connection with executing worthless
bonds for star routes contractors, and at 4
o'clock three had been arrested and were given
preliminary hearing before the
commissioner These were VIM. R. Casol,
Joseph Funk and Joseph Blackman.
The United States district attorney, who repre-
sented the government, produced no evidence,
Funk and Blackman are charged with being
the principals In the bonds executed July, 1879,
and Cason is charged with acting as surety,
representing himself to be worth, in each case,
$4,000. They are therefore charged with
conspiracy to defraud the government,
and also with perjury. The bonds
are SAID be fraudulent. All three men are poor
stated, but his salary.
The contract in case Funk was to carry the
mails from October, 1879, to June 30, 1882, on
route No. 81 ,592, between Fort Griffin and
Fort Elliott Tex, for S16s0 per annum. Black
man was to carry the mails
between the same dates on route
No. 81 ,572 between Bracketsville and Fort
Stockton, six for $3.50 year. The contracts
were performed by other parties which greatly
increased rates.
There is another bond of Blackman for 5000
which provides he shall carry the mails from
October 1st, 1879, to juno 80, 1880, between
Fort Elliot and Merchita Falls, Texas, for
81 $780, This contract was also fulfilled by
Others at higher prices.
Defendants were each placed under $1,000
bail for another hearing tomorrow. Cason
was the only one who furnished bail.
Warrants also issued fer the arrest of Joseph
A. Black and Henry R. Arbuckle, the latter a
clerk along with Cason In the office of Charles
A. Matthews, metal broker. Government
officials are very retieent. Important dis
closures are expected to follow these ar
rests.

WASHINGTON, May Cit is now definitely
settled that the department of the Arkansas
will be dropped, and that Gen. Scofield will be
left unassigned and granted leaye of absence
as a way of disposing of him. Gen.
tary Lincoln not to issue the order, but he has
failed. The order restoring the so-called de-
Partment of Arkansas to Gen. Sheridan's de-
partment will be issued in few days.
TT Is FIXED.
As a result of the conference between Presi-
dent Garfield, the secretary of war and Gems.
Sherman and Sherman, an order has been pre-
pared, and will probably be promulgated to-
morrow, restoring the military divisions to
the same status as before the order of Decem-
Der IS, 1850, which created the division of the
Gulf by the new order. Gen. Schofield is
placed on waiting orders until further orders
of the President, with full pay. The territory
formerly embraced in the division of the Gulf
is restored to the division of the Missouri,
which will remain under the command of
Lieut. Gen. Sheridan. The divisions of the
Atlantic and Pacific remain unchanged, under
the command of Gems. Hancock and Mellow
