upon the Secretary Of State is an accusa-
ton that Mr.. Blaine has been mixed up
in the Star route frauds, and that his re-
cent visit to New York was to "fiy up
things" Secretary Blaine declares this
story pure invention, and evidently in

Postmaster General James who was with the
Attorney General when he made to me this state
mant said that he concurred fully in it, and added
"The charge is utterly and basey false"
