ETAU irOUTE.
Biiss, ia his argument la the star route
trial this morning, turned upon the peti
tions connected with various routes, and
Miner was the object of particular at
tack. He showed that two routes had
been increased and expedited at great ex
pense by Urady, soley upon the recom
mendation of Billings a railroad presi
dent. Yet Brady had pretended that he
was fighting railroads ia tho interest of
star routes. Dorsey bad piocurcd rail
road passes from these gentlemen for his
agents, and it was a clear case of'scratch
my back and I will tickle your elbow."
Bliss then looked up the evidence relat
ing to routes and rapidly reviewed it,
passing minor points with mere mention
and bringing out in strong relief what he
described as a more iiagraut ofiense, an
order sor the increase on the Tresalamous
and Clifton route. He said it has re
mained unrevoked until a congressional
investigation had caused a cleaning up
of the dirty house of the second assist
ant postmaster general. The remainder
of the day's session was e vanned in a
careful review of the evidence concerning
routes. Elaboration of point's -.vas made
by Kerr.
