lsErNAAL ~ n r "
PHILADELPHIA, July 1.-THE apathy Of
the Union League is another snag in the
Beaver campaign. Its members have been
offended by Cameron's snubbing them,
relative to an appointment in the city
and by President Arthur's giving more
weight to Cameron than to them. They
have dropped their activity and have re-
fused to give money. As they number
u, 900 influential men, and as many other
influences are at work against Beaver, he
is not likely to have a smooth campaign.
Star Route Nonsense
WASHINGTON, July 11.-Last Thursday
the announcement was made that the
Grand Jury WAS to be ~reconvened to con.
slider additional evidence discovered tend
ing to bring to light alleged frauds com
mitted in connection with the letting Of
a contract for the Star Route service on
the route from San Antonio to Corpus
Cristi, Texas. At that time the
ment was made that Senator Kellogg Of
Louisiana was connected with the pay
mont of certain postoftice drafts, aggregat-
ing in amount so, 900. Indictments were
found some time ago against Gen. Brady
and j. 3. Price, the contractor on this
route. The distance from San Antonio to
Corpus Christi is $50 miles. The contract
was let to Price for S2,773 per annum, the
service to be two trips per week on a sche-
dule of 40 hours. Four trips were added
on Sept. l, 1878. Two months after the
beginning of the term of four years, and
on Aug. l, 1879, the running time was re-
duced 29k hours, and for this expedition
the price given was $50, 240, raising the
pay from 81, 1888 to S2S, 403, of which he
paid about SIS, 900 to a sub-contractor.
There 10 no reason to believe that ex-Sen-
ator Dorsey or his brother was connected
with this route, although wrong statements
to that effect have been published. This
route has no connection with the Sails
bury routes which were in the Western
States aud Territories. YESTERDAY the
Grand Jury was ~reconvened by special
order of Judge Wylie at the request of
counsel for the Government in the Star
Route cases. There were six absentees,
and the jury was adjourned until Wednes-
day next, the Marshal being directed
meanwhile to fill the vacancies. The
principal reason for adjournment, how

upon whom the Government chiefly relies
to sustain its case against Price and Brady,
and possibly against Senator Kellogg.
Price formerly resided in New Orleans,
where he was a commission merchant and
became acquainted with Kellogg.
