THE STAR ROUTE.
Some Motions Made in the Case
Yesterday,
Which Were Wordy, Technical and
Extensive.
The star Route In Court.

Washington, Oct. 11.-There ap-
peared before the court this
morning Totten, for the de-
fense in the Star route case, and
presented motion to rescind the order
made some days ago authorizing in
formation to be filed, also presented a
motion asking for an order on the dis
trict attorney to bring the records and
files Of the post office department relat-
ing to this particular route to some
place where it can be seen. The mo-
tion to rescind the order allowing in
formation to be filed is long techical
document and the causes set out in it
are that no notice of such information
be given to the defendants; that the
court is without jurisdiction; that the
matters charged in the information ap-
pear to have taken place about three
years before the application for leave to
file and no excuse or explanation for
the delay is given or attempted; that
the afiidavits in support Of the informa-
tion are insufficient; that proceeding by
Information is not authorized by law
and Is contrary 10 the practice of the
law; that information does not charge
any offense against any law Of the United
States; that the matters alleged were
impossible for execution by the defen-
dants; that the information was not
fled by any officer of the United States
authorized for the purpose, because of
the existence Of the regulation of the
post office department authorizing the
postmaster general to order any increase
or extension Of the service. and to allow
a pro ratio increase of pay, such rule
having been made before the defendant
BRADY became second assistant post
master general, the allowance of Nc
Donough were being made in conformity
with it. The increased service had
been petitioned for and urged upon the
department by officers of the United
States in Arizona and New Mexico, by
the governors and ex-governors of those
territories and the citizens of those ter
ritories, which petitions, etc., are ON
file. The pay for the increased service
amount to s24.195 which also made
contractors In the months of June and
July after defendants Brady and
French had left the department.
The court adjourned without fixing a
day for the argument.

MILITARY MATTERS.


The army retired list is limited to
400. There are at present only seven
vacancies, while fifty officers are eligi-
gible to retirement.
1t. Schwatka has continued his lee
turing tour into Washington territory,
and is doing big business. At Seattle
he was rendered brilliant ovation.
Washington, Oct. 11.--There is a
great deal of unfavorable comment in
army circles, and out Of them, on the
proposition to appoint Col. Rockwell
quarter master over the heads Of thirty
officers of superior rank in the quarter
masters department. An officer gives
the following account in the Republican
to-day:
1t is a mistake to say that Col. Rock
we'll was booked for the place by the
late president. 1t was. however SO
written down on the slate of the ''chum"
cabinet. and paper for the consum-
nation of the purpose was prepared
early in August and ready for the
signature Of Gen. Garfield. while he
was lying in his bed unable to attend to
business. The intention was to watch
for thu opportune moment when the
president seemed able to sign his name
intelligently and then finish the work.
This came to the ears Of Mr.. Blaine, SO
goes the story, who very decidedly ex-
pressed his disapproYal of such proceed
ing at that iuncture and added that
whenever the president should be
found in sufficiently healthy condi-
tion of mind and body to transact busi-
ness matters. he (Blaine) would demand
that his signature be placed on docu-
ments of vastly more consequence to
the United States that question who
shall succeed Gen. Meigs in the quarter
master generals Office. No further
movement was made by the Rockwell
party until after the death Of Gen. Gar
field, when 1t is alleged that Mrs. Gar
field was requested to and did write a
letter President Arthur recommending
the appointment Of Rockwell to be
quartermaster general. About the
| same date or just after Gen. Grant sent
a letter to the president stating that ht
long desired and now recommended the
appointment Of Gen. Rufus Ingalls, tc
be quartermaster general when that
office becomes vacant. The ex-army
officer who gives this information to th,
Republican is "chum" Of high-ranl
officers Of the army, and says he knew
| generally whereof.he spoke.

X. Nash, chairman of the republican
state central committee, does not claim
anything yet except that they have
carried the state.
At 1:20 a. m. SAB wards and precincts
showed democratic gain of ], ,139. The
republicans claim three or four doubt
full members Of the legislature, and one
Il not both branches of that body. A
very large republican gain was made at
the Soldiers Home, Dayton. Indica-
tions are that Foster will have 1900
plurality.

wAsHINGTON NOTES.

Conkling has returned to New York.

to-day.
A new action has been commenced
against Howgate for the recovery of
&25, 900.
tits thought that at least two cabinet
changes will be announced when the
senate convenes to-day.
In the prospective cabinet changes it
is generally admitted that the treasury
portfolio will 60 to New York.
It is the uncertainty of how Davis, Of
Illinois, will vote which causes the
democrats to hesitate in the election Of
a secretary.
At the democratic caucus held before
the session yesterday, 1t was reported
that no objection would be found to
the admission Of the new senators upon
prima facia evidence Of their creden-
tials.
At 12 O'Clock a meeting Of the cab
met was held at the residence of Sena-
tor Jones, all members attending, and
remained in session about an hour and
quarter, occupied mostly with the
political situation.
Arthur has notified the republican
senators that he will not make any nom-
nations this session except to fill
vacancies Of minor Importance, and
says he does not think the session Of
the senate will last longer than ten days.
The democrats will not attempt to
elect the secretary unless conf
dent Of their ability to succeed. Sem
ator Saunders said that the republicans
would not bother with the..secretary this
session, as they wanted to adjourn as
soon as possible.
Jorgesen, senator from Virginia. and
prominent leader Of straight out re-
publicans there, has decided to issue a
circular urging all Virginia republicans
to support Malone, whose action in
voting. for Anthony, says the senator,
shows him to be as good republican
as anybody.
