THE CABINET AND THE STAR ROUTE
The President Fears the administration
Will be IBjnred by the Course of the
Department OF Justice-Cabinet Topics.

VIII De injured Ny the OoutsS Vi tho
Department OF Justice-Cabinet Topics.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.--There is good
reason to believe that the President and his
Cabinet concluded to have something to say
regarding the present Star Route bribery
investigation and the coming new Star
Route trial.
II was learned tonight that the subject
was brought up in the Cabinet meeting
held yesterday, and that there was expressed
a strong feeling that the administration was
in fair way to be injured by the course OF
the Department Of Justice.
Secretaries Frelinghuysen and Lincoln
suggested that Attorney-General Brewster
be asked to present the result of his investi-
cation and h plan for new trial, "for the
information of the Cabinet and President" T"
1t is thought that Mr.. Brewster will no
doubt be glad to do SO.
IL Is not known whether Brewster was
teIegraphed for or not, but 1t is known that
at q late hour he concluded to come on from
| Philadelphia, although, a short time before
| he had sent for important papers to be ex-
pressed to him. The first thing to-day he
made hurried examination of the state
| ment prepared by Wells, in answer to the
| charge of bribery, and carried 1t with him
10 his conference with the President, and
| Secretaries Frclinghuysen and Lincoln.

to have expressed wish that there would
be no further necessity for trying cases In
| the newspapers. Beyond that nothing can
| be asccrtained of what took place. Sccrc-
| tary Lincoln, however, who had intended to
| 90 West tonight has deferred his proposed
| trip, ard Attorney General Brewster, who
| promised to give statement for publica-
tion tomorrow, says that it may be with
held for several days, and rumor has il
that the entire matter will be read at the
next Cabinet meeting before being given to
the public.
GOLD CERTIFICATES.
| Secretary Folger expresses the opinion
that the demand for gold certificates can be
fully supplied through the Sub-Trcasury al
| New York.
| GEN. PoPE's CHANCES.
| It is rumored in army circles to- night that
the result of the Cabinet discussion Gs tC
the Major Generalship has thus far been
unlavorable to Generals Popc's chance oi
promotion, and that 1t is not improbable
that name less prominent on the list will
be selected as the only possible way of OBJ.
| tanning the unanimous vote OF the Cabinet
| [Laterl-It is understood tonight, thai
although the army promotions have not ye
been announced, they have been finally dc
cided upon. Pope will become Major
General and Colonel ii. j. Hunt, Drigader
General until his date for retirement, a yea
or two hence, when Colonel Getty will b.
given the place and be followed on his retire
ment by Colonel Gibbons.
REGULATING PENSION CLAIMS.
| A claim was recently filed in the Treasur,
Department asking for ihe payment to
child of a deceased soldier of the full pen
sion due her and her sister, the latter having
died. Comptroller Upton and Audito
Keightly decided that such payment car
only be made by sending proof for new
certificate. The decision affects many i'm
portant claims.
CONCERNING PERU
Senior Elmorc, the Peruvian minister, re
ceived a cable dispatch to-day from Dr.
Rosa, the Peruvian minister in Paris, stat
that peace negotiations continue in Chill
and that Senor Piorola is in Paris. Bcini
asked regarding the alleged disturbances ii
Peru, Minister Elmore said every rumo
published during the last year by Peru,
enemies, alleging the existance of a state o
anarchy, was absolutely false.
No Peruvian of any Importance oppose
or has opposed provisional government rep
resented by Caldron and Montoro since tn
day the United States recognized it, not cx
Guiding Senor Pierola. Minister Elmore say
the moral influence of the United States re
established the constitutional government
in Peru, and will also establish peace ii
South America.
