The Star Route Frauds-Their Prosecu- , ton Postponed until september-Judge
 Cox's Charge to the Jury-Suits Brought
 Against Brady by Former Contract
 Or-Other Matters.
 WASHINGTON, June 21.-The postponement of further action in the Star route cases, so far as prosecutions are concerned, until Sep tember next is settled fact. Last week the government expected to be able to begin &C., tion immediately. The evidence upon which indictments against the leading members of the ring would undoubtedly have been found was prepared and would have been laid be- fore the grand jury at the earliest opportuni- ty. Judge Cox, however, decided to adjourn court on July to take his summer vacation The principal defendants came on to Wash ington from New York expecting that pro- ceedings would be instituted against them immediately Dorsey arrived here Sunday morning and General Brady came yesterday The ring are cheered by this postponement, but the government will continue busy work ing up cases during July and August.
 Judge Cox of the District Supreme Court, in charging the grand jury to-day which will probably try the Star route cases, spoke as follows: am informed by public rumor only that during the present term your at tention will probably be called to series of frauds alleged to have been perpetrated against the government of the United States in connection with the postal service, in which perhaps both contractors and officials will be implicated am not advised as to what form such charges will take, and still less as to tie persons involved only deem 1t necessary to say to you in general terms that from the magnitude of the public ser vice the United States is exposed to assault in many quarters, that the temptations are

so great that the private conscience seems to be so much more biunted in regard to dealings with the United States than with private individuals that the only protection the United States has from this species of wrong is very stringent legisla- ton. The purity of the public service can not be guarded and protected unless laws of this kind are faithfully and rigidly enforced. This is subject that excites great deal Of interest at the present time and perhaps more especially calls for the exercise on your part of great care in the observance Of those duties which you have assumed generally and particularly to discharge from your mind all such influences as malice on the one hand and fear, favor or affection on the other. and especially for the exercise of perfect secrecy in your deliberations and investigations con- cerning the subject.
 An order issued from the Navy department today says women shall not be allowed to reside on board vessels of the United States navy in commission for sea service, nor shall they be taken passengers on such vessels under any circumstances.
