The Star Route Cases.
New York Sun


Brewster Cameron, who has had charge Of
the Star Route cases since Mr. Bliss No.
ceased to draw his 800 day, says that the
Attorney General has not yet determined
whether to prosecute the civil suits against
fhe Star Route contractors. He says that
Mr.. Bliss No. 2 of st. Louis was called to
Washington to examine the evidence, and
give his opinion as to the practicability of be-
ginning the suits, and to determine which
cases, if any, should be taken up. He was
engaged in the examination about two weeks,
when he was called to St. Louis to look after
some business he has before the courts there,
and is expected to return here soon to finish
his work, The Attorney-GeLeral evidently
reposes great confidence in Bliss No. 2 for
he already has the opinion of such an emf
nent authority as the Postmaster-G General that
the prosecution Of the civil cases would be a
waste of time and money, and out West,
where Judge Gresham for twenty years sat
upon the bench of the United States courts,
his judgment is considered good. Bliss No.
2 was in pantalettes when Judge Gresham
was on the bench, and his wisdom may be
greater than his years.

The Passenger Executive Committee.

New YORK, April 22.-The passenger de-
partment in joint executive committee began
their session to-day in Commissioners Fink's
office. About twenty roads were represented,
including all the trunk lines and principal
western connections. Many matters will
be considered. One of the principal ques-
tons is a removal of the present passenger
pool, the contract for which expires on May
l. and the settlement of deferential fares and
percentages. The greater part of to-day's
session was taken up il discussion of
the differential. and after the adjournment
q meeting of the Buffalo committee, with
John A Burch, of the lake Shore and Michi-
gan Southern, chairman, held a long private
conference, in Assistant Commissioner Pier
sons Office upon some subject. Nothing was
settled, and the Buffalo committee VIII con-
tinue their meeting. During the setting of
the joint executive committee, it having been
decided to postpone the final settlement of
the question of differentials till, all other
matters are disposed of. There was q gen
eral disposition, Pierson said, on the part of
all the railways to look for a reduction of
and this probable important change will be
made in this respect. At it's forenoon ses-
sion the committee disposed of large
amount of business in the way of making
special rates for conventions of religious
and other organizations. In regard to the
general conference of the Methodist Episco-
pal church, which will be held
next month in Philadelphia, it was
decided to return all delegates
who pay full fare to Philadelphia from any
point within the territory Of the joint'execu-
tive committee, at one-quarter of the lowest
unlimited fare to such points, on presenta-
ton of a certificate to be procured from the
Rev. A. j. Mynett, Philadelphia. All dele
gates to the conference OF the layity or clergy
together with all Methodist ministers attend
ing the conference with their families, will
be entitled to reduced return fare, upon pre-
sentation Of a certificate, which must, how
ever, be obtained before they leave for home
The committee Will continue in session to-
morrow when renewal of the contract will
be considered.

NEW YORK LOVERS.
Where IntrfDues are Carried or--1he Post
Office Corridor.

Office Corridor.
New York Letter to Cincinnati Enquirer.
The meeting places of lovers in New York
are well defined. When married woman
Is suspected of having an amour with some
one outside of the family circle, the husband
and the detectives in nine cases ont Of ten
know pretty well where to look for her. The
same is true of young girls. l have no
doubt that shrewd observer of the various
phases of New York life could accurately
guage woman's age, social condition, and
tell whether she is married or single, by
knowing whether she habitually met her low
er. Married women are, of course, ever so
much more crafty and sly than their spin
ster sisters. This is the result of experience.
Girls choose the most romantic and agree
able spots; married women, with that large
perception of the value of mems time and
the decreased amount of sentiment which
years inevitably bring to womankind, choose
the spot most convenient for their lovers.
The centre for thousands of intrgues in
New York is found in the New York post Of
flee. Every day pass through the Post Of
flee from the Office to the barber's or to
luncheon at the Astor house. Not unfre-
quently go there on business, and the re-
suit is that pass along the corridor devoted
to 'Ietters to be Called For'' on an average
OF Two or three times day. The scene is
suggestive one. At all hours of the day up
to 5 O'Clock at night one encounters women
of various degrees of beauty, but always well
dressed, hurrying up to the windows and
Immediately going away again. They new
er conc in groups, are not acquainted with
each other, pass the numerous men who
stand around without glance and get out
OF the building as soon as possible. The
majority of them come down in the Fifth
avenue stages, though quite a number come
over from Brooklyn, get their letters and re-
turn over the bridge. I am continually
amazed at the character of
the women whom I pass there every day. 1
have been painfully surprised on one or
two occasions to meet women whom l
knew and whom I never suspected of carry
ing en- an intrigue. 1t is safe to assume
that almost every woman who haunts this
corridor of the post Office, hiss deep romance
on hand Women who want to make in
quiries for letters that have gone astray go
to the superintendent Office, and there is
another department for letters that come
from foreign counties. A particular sec
ton of the corridor is devoted simply to let
tiers that have no street addresses, are mailed
in the vicinity of New York and are left I'M
til called for. Quite as many men call for
letters of this sort as women, but they don't
do with half the grace or tact.

IRISH ELECTION FUND.
Sympathizers Asked to Help in Elect
ing Home Rulers i'm ireland.

CHICAGO, April 22.-The following are the
essential features of the circular issued to-
day from the headquarters Of the Irish Ma
tional league of America. Charles Stewart
Parnell has publicly declared that in order to
secure sufficient number of eligible men to
carry on to victory the struggle of the island
in the British parliament fund will be re-
CURED, to enable the men who could not
otherwise leave Ireland to reside in London,
and give their constant attention to their
parliamentary duties; that this requirement
is reas enable and legitimate, which will ap-
pear from a brief statement of the facts
Unlike the members of our national con-
gress, the members of the house of comm ons
receive no salary Of its $40 members, all
but small minority, chiefly Irish, are in the
enjoyment Of incomes without toll, either as
herediatory landlords, placemen under the
crown or agents Of monopolies. The Irish
national party can carry, probably seventy
seats in the general election, if the fund re-
quired is subscribed. Some constituents will
provide for their own representatives, the
greater number will be unable to do so, be-
cause the vast majority of the electors are
themselves bread winners. While the land,
which is the chief source of profit,
is held by resident landlords
or absentees who will combine
to carry as many seats as possible Tor crea-
lures of their own. To meet the lawful ex-
penses of the approaching general election,
and to assist in the formation of party fund,
the Irish National league of America, invites
contributions from supporters of Charles
Stewart Parnell, his policy and his purpose,
which is to recover the right Of the Irish peo-
pie to make thier own laws On their own soil.
Subscriptions map be sent to the Rev. Chas.
O'Reilly, D. D., treasurer, Detroit, Mich.
President Sullivan has received a telegram
from Eugene Kelly, the New York banker,
