rxpired and gone into the possession of John

nothing Of the sort having been cjmmuni-
Gated to them. They said that heretofore.

hands, but still belongs to the original COM
pauy.

Washington special says: Tne Committee on
Elections has one singular contest before it.
A man by the name of Mcdowell has filed
papers to contest the election of Congressman
George, of Oregon. 1t appears that he re
ceived but four ballots, but he claims that
his constituents were intimidated from vot-
ing for him, and prevented his election. 1t
is shown, also, that he ran on the same ticket
for State Senator as we'll as Congress m an.
spelling his name variously. The contest is
not regarded as very serious matter, al
though the papers have been fled in due
form. George will probably not respond.

Garfield and Dorsey.


The correspondence between General
Garfield and ex-senator Dorsey during the
last Presidential campaign. which has
been made public by Mr.. Dorsey, has been
read with considerable interest. It is very
conclusIyely shown by the correspondence
that General Garfield spoke and wrote to
Mr.. Dorsey with great freedom and conf
dence, but it does not necessarily follow,
as Mr.. Dorsey tries to show, that had Gem
eral Garfield lived he would have stopped
the star route prosecutions. Mr.. Dorsey.
as Secretary of the National Republican
Committee, had charge to a large de-
gree Of the management of the cam
paign, the custody and the expendi-
ture of the funds for election purposes,
and had knowledge of the secret moves
and manipulatiOns of the Republican
managers in the different States. 1t
was natural enough that General Garfield,
the Presidential candidate, should carry
on confidential correspondence with
him, just as he would with any other man
who happened to be Secretary of the COM
mittee. In most of his letters General
Garfield addressed Mr.. Dorsey in formal
way, as "My. dear Senator" and not as
an Intimate personal friend would address
another. But after all, no matter how in
innate General Garfield was with Mr..
Dorsey, and no matter how much he owed
his election to him, the question is whether
it would have been proper or right fOg
him as President to stand between the
law and the indicted offenders, and Gen
eral Garfield or no other President could
afford to hesitate an instant in such 6
contingency.

GOULD CORNERED.
Sharp Tactics of the Mexican Govern
ment.

GALVESTON, Dec. 2O.-A special from
Laredo says: ''There is good authority for
the report that work on the International
Railway extension has been permanently
suspended. 1t seems that the Gould-Gross
concession from the Mexican Government
contains a provision which absolutely for
feits to Mexico all the work done in the
event that the road should fail to be COM
pleted, in conformity with the charter, at
the terms therein specified, and provided
further that the Mexican Government
shall be the supreme arbiter of the matter
should forfeiture occur. Gould tried to
get modification to the extent that,
should work at any time have to be
suspended on account of any financial
panic in the United States, it would be an
exception in his favor. Not succeeding in
this, all work has been stopped.,,
