Brady's Expediting Methods.


Mr. Ker continued his argument after the report
In the first edition closed, saying that In the case
OF Stephen w. Dorsey the eleven routes belonging
TO him, originally taken for s2i $751; were increased
and expedited by Brady until they paid Dorsey
S2o4 49o ~ year In gross and a profit OF $1e4,-
IA ~ The entire sum paid on these routes un-
DER the original contract was s3 1861 year but the
amount allowed by Brady after increase and ex-
petition was s466, 4o4.s0 year. During the con-
tract term 100000 was paid on thes, routes, when
not Inore than $4,000 should have been paid
The entire postal revenues on these routes fn the
year 1881, after expedition. were $56,7l3O4, and
excluding from the calculation the railroad Offices
where the revenues had little to do with the star
routes were S10,S07.26 Nearly half q million dol
lars was spent annually to take care OF $40, 600
worth OF mail. The main question here was
WHETHER THERE WAS A CONSPIRACY?
The government claimed that there was q
secret agreement among these defendants
to take routes at low figures, and
through Brady get allowances made
which would enable them to take large amount
or money from the Treasury. 1t was true the
government had not been able to show by any
BODY the actual payment OF money toThomasJ
Brady. 1t could not be expected that these de-
PENDANTS would take the stand and admit any
such thing,
