DUDE BREWSTER SNUBBED.
Special Counsel Bradley Gives His
Dudeship a Piece of His Mind
and Resigns,
Especial Telegram to the Globe.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-The announce
ment is made here of the resignation of Col.
w. o. Bradley, of Kentucky, as special coun-
sci to prosecute the star route cases. When
he accepted the responsible charge offered
him by the attorney general
Col. Bradley buckled down to his
work with his customary ZEAL
For some time he worked in Washington,
wisely and diligently preparing the prelimi-
naries for the suits. When he believed him
self ready to begin he said to the attorney
general that, warned by the misfortunes that
had attended the prosecution of the criminal
suits against members Of the star route ring
largely because of the antagonism among
the government counsel, he desired to con-
troll the selection of his assistants He said
that he believed it all-important that the
prosecution of the civil suits should be
harmonious in order to be successful He
wanted to know personally every man en-
gagged in the prosecution down to the hum
blest stenographer, in order that he might
not be continually harassed by suspicious
regarding either their ability or their loyalty
L NC dltOIHeJ ScLeldi apparently uiu HoI
know the man he was dealing with. He
said with petulancy that he proposed to run
the cases himself and that he would select
his own agents for that purpose, Col.
Bradley expressed his opinion of such
a course calmly but clearly and then made
another suggestion to the attorney general.
This was that the first man to be prosecuted
was to be Stephen w. Dorsey, the king-pin
in the star route alley. This excited more
opposition on the part of the attorney gen
eral than the first proposition. He would not
listen to it,
Then Bradley in the pure Anglo-Saxon
which he knows so well how to use gave the
attorney general piece of his mind
and left the cases and the department
together. Subsequently the attorney
general sent him a check for
few hundred dollars as compensation for the
large expenditures of time and money, which
he had made in preparing the cases for trial.
This check Col. Bradley promptly returned
to the attorney general. Then he went back
to New York, wise, if not a sadder man.
So far his successor has not been appointed
and the cases seem to be about as languid
as ever.

Mrs, Phoebe ScOyiI's Suit.

New YORK. Aug. IA serious charge
was brought to-day against the officers OF the
Mercantile Trust company. A few days be-
fore the flight of VIM. E. Scovil, lawyer
Days swindling stenograper, he obtained a
loan from the Mercantile Trust company,
which, as was claimed, was to be secured by
the deed of certain property owned by him
self and wife in Brooklyn. On the Sunday
before the disclosure of Scovips frauds he
was visited at a hotel in Black Rock, Conn,
by Treasurer E. L. Montgomery and Charles
Alexander, counsel for the Trust COM
pany. He and his wife claimed that trans
fers were duly perfected. Judge M. L..
Towns, as counsel for Mrs. Phoebe L. Scovil,
has filed in the Office of the clerk of Kings
county the summons and complaint in an
action brought by her against the
Trust company. The complaint alleges
that prior to July %, 1884, the plaintiff
was the owner in her own right, of certain
real estate situated on Carroll street and
Seventh avenue, Brooklyn, worth 10000.
The complaint alleges further that the de-
PENDANT by its servants and agents, caused
her, the plaintiff, to be arrested. and alb,
Quoted her forcibly from her dwelling place,
BLACK Rock county, and struggled her tc
the city of New York, and there imprisoned
her against her will, and without warrant OF
legal process detaine her forcibly in close
room and prevented her com municating
with her friends or advisers. The complaint
also alleges that while the plaintiff was thus
Illegally imprisoned, the defendant repre-
sented to her that her husband, VIM. E. SEQ
vii, had committed felony and was about
to be arrested by detectives, who were on his
track, and that if the plaintiff would make a
conveyance of the property before mentioned
to the defendant, the defendant would allow
and assist her husband to escape, and would
abstain from prosecuting him for the alleged
felony, and that Alexander and Montgomery
also represented to her and caused her to be-
lieve that the defendant, and especially they
themselves, acting for the company, were
her friends, and had instructions to assist
her husbands escape and provide for her
and her family until he was in a place OF
safety. The complaint alleges that the plain
tiff, believing the representations made to
her by the defendant and its agents, con-
veyed to the company the real estate above
mentioned without consideration. The
plaintiff demands that the conveyance be
set aside as fraudulent, and that her prop
erty be restored to her, and that she may
have such other relief as the court may see
fit to grant.

STAR ROUTE CASES.
Attorney General Brewster Explains
His Management of the
Star Route Cases.


LONG BRANCH, N. Y, Aug. 1S.-A cor
respondent of the Associated press called
upon Attorney General Brewster with refer
ence to the article criticising his manage
ment of the Star route trials. Brewster
characterized the article as altogether I'M
true, except that Col. Bradley was asked to
to take charge of the cases after examining
into them so as to learn their character and
the amount of service they would take, he
was asked to state his charge. In letter he
named his charge as 81, 600 month. Brew
ster continued:
s'When Mr.. Bradley said he wanted 50, 600
month his offer was declined, upon the
ground that his charge was more than ought
to be paid for it. | had before that an offer
from a gentleman to attend to these cases at
S25, 0U0 year. Bradley's charge was $50, 600
a year and of course / declined. When l
had declined the S25, 1000 charge because l
thought it was more than ought to be paid.
Bradley was very polite and civil. proposed
to pay him for his expenses and stated the
amount, and understood him ne would con-
sent to accept it, but upon second thought he
wrote declining, upon the ground that the
rate at which he was paid was lower than
had been allowed the star route
counsel and he must decline it,
and he left. There was never harsh, I'M
unkind or complaining word uttered by him.
| offered him all l thought was proper for
what he had done. These star route civil
cases are now in the hands of one of the as
sistants of the department, who [ assume is
actually engaged at this time in instituting
suits at different points, for he is under posi-
tive instructions. | wrote him within ten
days, in consequence of letters from him
upon the subject, and l urged him to be
prompt and pursue the cases with energy,
and believe he is so doing. This morning l
received letter forwarded me from Wash
ington, directing that immediate suits be
brought by the district attorney in these star
route civil suits. All of these relating to the
state route civil suits | explained in my
testimony before the congressional COM
mttee without giving the names OF the gen
tlemen who had been applied to take charge
of them. and would not mention Bradley's
name now if it did not appear in the article
alluded to, which is wholly untrue. The
article going around the country saying had
great retinue of horses, carriages and ser
wants and the like here, is a preposterous fab
rication. live in a palmer and more quiet
way than I ever have before. | was aston
ished to see the exaggerated accounts, such
as never happened since l have been coming
here and which Won d make me lead very
ostentations and silly life. l spend my time
at my business and with my books. My OBJ
ject in being here is tranquility, not display
or excitement.

appearance. Commodore Bennett was in
full uniform, as were the officers and fifty
members of the crew. An awning was
spread over the deck, the centre
forward part being given up to the guests.
Every part of the vessel was thrown open to
the guests for inspection. The main saloon
and the several cabins were magnihcently
festooned, while rare flowers were arranged
on the deck and in several rooms. On the
deck were u number of small tables for rs
many luncheon parties, upon which were
placed the choicest delicacies. Sanders full
orchestra was stationed forward of the engine
room hatch and discoursed lively music.
There was great array of feminine beauty,
and the ladies were elegant in the extreme
One OF the most pleasurable features of the
entertainment was the unconventional man
