ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

Of the last few days have made some things
in the Star Route matters clear. While
there has been shown much bad manage
ment on the part Of the prosecution, 1t
is also shown that the Attorney General Is
very much in earnest, and if the Presi-'
len does not interfere the Star Route
cases will be prosecuted to a successful
termination, provided an honest jury can
be found in the District. That such is the
determination OF the persons now in
charge is very evident. They are aston
ished that they so narrowly escaped con-
viction. The defense fear the results Of
another trial. Brady is making such a
disposition OF his property thai he will
soon have few ties in Washington, while
Dorsey has retired to his ranch, almost
blind and quite q b~roken-down man. In
view of these facts the purposes Of the de-
PENDANTS in their latest move can be easily
understood. The defendants specially
fear the Attorney General and special
counsel Merrick and Judge Wylie. They
are seeking the remove Of Brewster. 1t
/ is known that if successful Merrick would
follow. They have announced their pur-
pose to endeayor to make 1t impossible for
Judge Wylie to preside at the second trial.
The defendants counsel are constantly
busy in their attempts to secure these re-
| suits. and they are not without important
political Influence. There il little reason
to doubt that the recent publications by
the defendants have had in part the pur-
pose Of bringing the Department of jas
tIce into disgrace. By exposing a fact which
cannot be den.ed-that rascals were en-
ployed in the Government service. and
hat the Department Of Justice to too great
an extent was made a directive bureau,
where the low arts OF the spy were prac-
ticed.
Explanation by jay HubbeIl.
WAsHINGToN, Oct. 1S.-Jay Hubbell says
the Democrats have so far gained five
Congressman. The Republicans lost in
Ohio because they went rather too far, or
not far enough on the temperance issue.
Either extreme was better than their mid
die course. He thinks New York will gain
one Republican Congressman; Pennsyl-
vauia VIII hold her own. In short, the
contest is as hopeful as possible. There
are 10 doubtful districts in the whole
country. l claim 46 Of these, making the
majority in both houses II Republicans.
Did You zee the article in a morning
paper the other day. stating that the EN-
plOyes of the Bureau OF Engraving and
Printing, who had not contributed money
to the campaign fnnd would be compelled
to do so by having the money withheld
from their salaries 2"
THAI Etatpment is absolutely false
Has anybody ever been dismissed for
not paying
Il have ben connected with the Repub-
lican Congressional Committee eight years
and may say that a threat of that kind
has never been made, and nobody has ever
been dismissed for that reason"
why do they talk this way this year,
"Not half Of the employees Of the Gov
eminent have paid. Are we going to tusn
out the rest Of them?
a Very SoiiierIy Letter.
WASHINGTON, Oct. IS Commissioners Of
Pensions Dudley has received the follow
ing soldierly letter:
CLIFFORD Pa, Oct. Elm the pension
claim Of Lewis Hayres, late Corporal of
Company C, Second New Jersey Volunteer
Cavalry, | beg leave to submit the follow
ing, after a careful examination of the
spirit and intent of the pension laws: l
do not consider myself, in my present con-
dition. justly entitled to a pension, not
that I am not suffering from the disability
which l have clearly proven, or am less
worthy than others who are receiving pen
sions, but it does not seem to me tina any
soldier is honestly entitled to a pension
who is able to work and provide a living
for himself and family, and this l have
been able to do most Of the time since my
discharge from the service. If the time
ever comes that shall not be able to get a
living without assistance from the United
States Government the case will be differ
ent. | cannot conscientiously accept money
from the Government in my present con-
dition. / therefore request that my name
be stricken from the pension roll. Hoping
for your indulgence for this intrusion
upon your valuable time, l beg leave to
81 subscribe myself your humble servant,
LEWIS WAYREs.
