special says: The following Board has been
elected under the new ownership of the Re
publican Hallet Kilbourn, g. O. Gorham,

representing some New York capitalists
Robert G.. Dun, of Dun, Barlow &
Co., and George Bliss, of New York,
a large capitalist active lawyer, and
lifetime personal friend of President
Arthur man who il supposed to
know more secrets OF the Administration
than any member of tie S..Y;net, and who
has been appointed by the President special
counsel to take charge Of the star-route cases.
It remains to be seen whether this paper will
psrsevere in the same course towards the
star-route prosecutions that it has from the

the control of the stock of which he is sup
posed to have acquired, attacking the star
route prosecution, Of which he IS himself the
chief. There are those who say it never has
been the intention of the Administration to
press the star-route suits. Evidently General

Possibly the course of the Repsbyscap viii
solve this problem.
