HOW BRADY ' RAISED" THE PAY OK 93 ROUTKH AT THK EXPENSE OF 0,132 OTHERS. Nearlv One-IIalf the Appropriation of l.aht Year Absorbed by Brady, Dersey & Ce. Washington Cor. X. Y. Times, Rep. The table printed below shows the ex tent te which 93 of the 0,225 star routes were manipulated by the contract office or the pest office department under Gen. Brady's management. It will be noticed that the aggregate for which these 93 routes were originally let is $727,119, and that the increased pay allowed is 12,075, 095, a sum nearly equal te three times the amount of the original fieures,aud that the aggregate cost of service en the routes de scribed was thus swollen by Gen. Brady te nearly $3,000,000. These routes include many of these originally awarded te favor ite contractors, or subsequently transfer red te them by the peculiar methods adopted for making such transfer. Every one of these routes has a remarkably in teresting history, and most of them have yielded heavy tribute te the ring. In some cases the increased compensation was awanled within a feu weeks of the origi nal letting, and has already been explain ed in the TinieiCt dispatches, a notable in stance of this kind being furnished by route Ne. 31,451, ruuniug from Fert Werth te Yuma. This route was origi nally let for $134,000, and iu about 30 days thereafter Gen. Brady ordered a reduction in the schedule time from 17 days te 15 dayti, and increased the compensation $1J5,000, thus raising the aggregate pay te $299,000 per annum. In considering the aggregate increased pay shown by the subjoined table, it should be borne iu mind that the increase' extends ever the remainder of the contract term, the full term being four years. Thus, in the case of the Fert Werth and Yuma route, the increased pav would be for thiee years and eleven months, and at the increased rate would aggregate nearly $1,200,000. Assumiug that three years is the average period for which the increased pay would run en the 93 routes described below, the aggregate of Gen. Brady's ar bitrary awards en these routes would be $6,275,285. The following is the table : catien ej rgi. SS itentei. : : cs : ; 5 a a a2 LOUISIANA. B. II. Petersen 201 $11,700 $51,M1 J. 15.

Nearly all the contractors above named have been special and preferred friends of the contract office, and were supported by influential persons outside of the post pest office department, who are believed te have received large pecuniary rewards for their services aud influence with the de partment. Cornelius Cosgrove is the con tractor for the Las Vegas and Las Cruces route in New Mexico. It was originally let for about $15,000 and seen thereafter raised te $91,000. Cosgrove is backed by S. B. Elkins, formerly a delegate te Con gress from New Mexico ; Legan H. Roots, formerly a member of Congress from Ar kansas aud new president of the Mer chants' bank of Little Reck, and R. C. Kerns, of St. Leuis, a stage and express owner aud a director of the Iren Mountain railroad company. Through the influence of these persons the pay for the Las Vegas route was increased te ever 91,000, but of this amount Cosgrove has informed many Eersens that he' received only $56,000, eiug compelled te give Kerns drafts for the remainder en the' sixth auditor against his pay. Thus Kerns received for the services and influence of his group $35,000. PnstrrnvA nnirl thtc tmKiifn IVkt. nna .. and then gave his brother Michael a sub contract for the route for the round sum of $91,000, which sub-contract was filed in the posteffice department. This cut out the remaining drafts given Kerns, and led te a row between Cosgrove and Kerns, which was amicably, settled during the time the last Congress was investigating the star services. Cosgrove's letter te Kerns in relation te this dispute was re cently published in the Times' s Washing ton dispatch. J. W. Dersey, whose name appears fre quently in the' list of contractors, is a brother of ex-Senater Dersey. of Arkausas and is believed te be the representative of the latter iu the star route business. The ex senator is also believed te be interested in the centraetsheld by J. M. Peck and J. R. Miner, and it is said that his interest iu these contracts is equal te $200,000 of profits for the contract term. Seme time age ex-Senater Dersey borrowed from James A. Beslcr, of Pennsylvania, an old Indian contractor, $50,000, transferrin" therefer te Besler, as collateral, part of his interest in the routes of J. W. Deiscy. J. M. Peck and J. It. Miner te an amount hugely in excess of the sum borrowed, the difference being cluugcd for interest and discount. J. T. Chidester, who has the Fert Werth route, is backed by Legan II. Beats, S. B. Elkins, R. C. Kerns and J. D. Adams, of Memphis, a steamboat man,--who has the Tennessee steamboat routes that are new being investigated. Chidester is also sup ported by Senater Maxcy and ether mem bers of Congress from Texas, and by Mr. Meney, of Mississippi, who was chairman of the Heuse committee en posteflices in the last Congress. Senater Maxey was chairman of the Senate committee en pest- offices during the Forty sixth Congress, and was an earnest advecate of the ilcfl- eicney appropriation asked for by Gen. Brad', and a .sturdy defender of the star route system a practiced during the past four years. Congressman Blackburn, of Kentucky, is also a Irieud and inderser of Chidoster. T. A. McDevitt, C. W. Fester, G. W. Messersele. S. S. Huntley, aud William Henry Feicc, whose names appear in the list of contractors, are connected with th e Arm of J. L. Sanderson & Ce., in a general way in the star route business, and have the support of J. B. ChaiTce, of Colerado ; Richard C. McCermickuf Arizona ; Cen grcssmau Page of California, and ether iu fluential persons in the West. B. H. Petersen, who heads the Louis iana list of contractors, formerly resided in Louisiana, but has taken up his rcsi dence in Washington in order the better te promote his intcicsts with the posteffice department. He is net only a star route contractor, but has some very lucrative steamboat centtacts en the Red River and ether tributaries of the Mississippi. His particular friends arc Congressman Ellis ex-Congressman Syphcr. of Louisiana, and he has also the very efficient services of Judge Wm. Lilly, of Washington, father of Deputy Sixth Auditor Lilly, and legal adviser of Gen. Brady. The potency of Petersen's influence is shown by the fig ures opposite his name in the list printed above. Starting at $12,000, he succeeded in a short time in having the figures raised te $52,000. J. B. Price, of Jeffersen City, Me., was one of Gen. Brady's most favored con tractors. He has the support of the Mis souri delegation in Congress, and is in derscd by many merchants and associa tions of St. Li in is. The increase awarded Price en the Santa Fe-Mesilla route wa, it is alleged, obtained by corrupt methods andtisalse alleged that the expedited schedule for which the iucrcascd pay was awarded was never carried out. Price has bad ether contracts at large amounts that wcie net cutried out according te the terms en which the additional compensa tion was awarded. He had the routes from Las Vegas te Albuquerque and from Secorro te Silver City, ler whic "j he was paid at the rate of $27,000 per annum for one and $23,000 for the ether, and en which he performed no service whatever. Upen the facts being repeated te the de partment, Gen. Brady was compelled te discontinue the route'butPtico managed te secure pay for six months" service en one route and pay for a shorter period ou the ether. Price had frequently boasted of his intimacy and influence with Gen. Brady. A. H. Brewu was for several years con tract and corresponding clerk iu the con tract office, and was iu charge of star routes in California, Nevada, Oregon and some of the territories. Whet: Postmas ter General Jewell made a raid en the straw bidders iu 1875, Brown was among these dismissed from the apartment. Im mediately pfter his discharge he fled te Canada in order te avoid being summoned as a witness during the investigation or dered by Mr. Jewell. Upen his return te Washington he cultivated Gen. Brady's friendship, and since 1877 has been in high favor in the contract office. A. S. Patrick, of Omaha, is Brown's partner, and Patrick is backed by ex-Gov. Thayer, of Wyom ing. Brown and Patrick were given the route from Reck Creek te Fert Custer at the rate of $12,000 per annum, which was increased by Gen. Brady te $90,000. Brown's intimacy with the contract office secured the additional $78,000. Chase Andrews was also a postefficu "clerk, and was discharged by Postmaster General Tyner when he became head of the department. Mr. Andrews is a dea con in one of the Presbyterian churches in Washington, and doubtless ewes his suc cess as a star route contractor and post pest office attorney te his ecclesiastical associ ates. O. J. Salisbury, F. W. Gillmer, Luke Voerhces and Hugh White constitute one firm, and pull together for their joint ac count and advantage. This firm maintains a representative constantly in Washington, whom they pay $12,000 per annum te leek after their contracts and te see that they are increased and expedited at the proper time. Their attorney is Cel. Jeseph JVlc Kibbcn, a former member cf Congress from California. Cel. McKibben, having the privilege of the fleer of the Heuse of Rep resentatives, was able te render efficient service daring the congressional investiga tion conducted at the beginning of last year. These persons de net requite any political backing, being able through the manipulations of their attorney te keep matters all right at the posteffice .depart ment. Seme of the local newspaper writers who howl about attempts being made te blackmail Gen. Brdyand the star route contractors are well acquainted with Cel McGibben and the firm lie represents. One of these writers is said te have drawn en Salisbury last summer for a large amount of money, which draft went te pi etcst. It was subsequently paid, however, and the man who received the money gained con trol of a newspaper, in which he is con stantly intimating that these who are ex posing the star route iniquity are striving te blackmail Gen. Brady and the star route contractors. Tfc. Rlnti aad Their Proms. These who claim te knew all the points et the investigation which is being made into the methods of the star route ring say that the half has net yet been made public, and will net be until measures are taken te bring Brady te justice and the penitentiary, if possible. The whole steal is practically divided between what is known as the Dorsay -gaag and the Gil mer and Salisbury party, the latter being by far the most extensive operators in the swindle. The Dersey gang is composed of J. w. uersey, J. 31. reck and J. K. Miner, who have acted as blinds for Stephen W. Dersey, ex-senator from Ar kansas and secretary of theRepublican national committee, bidding for and receiving the contracts. J. W. Dersey is a brother of Stephen W. Dersey. Only a little ever three years age lie was a farmer iu Vermont, an ignorant, stupid specimen of humanity. He was net se stupid, however, that his mere brilliant brother could net use him as a cats'-paw te pull the cold from the public treasury, and he was brought te Washington for that purpose. J. 31. Peck, the second worthy of the trio, is a brother-in-law or Stephen W. Dersoy, having married the sister of the latter's wife, and J. R. Miner is a partner of the great original Dersey himscir. He was brought from Sandusky, Ohie, expressly te go into this star route business. The amount known te have been pocketed by the Stephen W. Dersey gang in excess of the amount called for by tucir original bids is net less in round numbers than $412,000. What percentage of this was transferred te Brady as his share of the spoils only Stephen W. Dor Der sey ami his partners can tell. The firm of Gilmer, Salisbury & Ce., which did an even mere extensive business in the swindle than the Dersey crowd, is composed of J. F. Gilmer, Munro Salis bury aud O. J. Salisbury, a younger brother of Muure. J. T. Gilmc: was for merly a stage driver ever the Uelliday overland route, from St. Jeseph te Sacra mento, California. He was a very ignor ant man, and could scarcely write his own name, but he had a shrewd eye for busi ness. In 1SC8 he formed a partnership with the two Salisburys and brought out the stage lines of Wells, Farge & Ce., ever which most of the mails in the terri teries were at that time carried. Since then the linn has been engaged it the star route business and has made a large fortune Among the agents who have made straw bids in the interest or this firm are V. W. Parker, T. A. McDevitt, A. S. Patrick, Lnkc Voerhecs, Geerge II. Piatt, O. J. Salisbury, Patrick & Brown, A. II. Brown, G. V. Messerelc, C. Cos grove, W. W. Giddings, A. L. Scelcy, F. NV. Gilmer, a brother of J. F. Gilmer, W. L. Hill, Hugh White, Salisbury aud Nichols, William Hamilton. 31. V. Nichols and William II. Force. The excess of pay received by the Gilmer & Salisbury combination, ever that called for by their original contracts, amounts te the neat little sum of $778,503, with mere still te hear from. In addition te the money given te these large contractors, who made their bids through straw ageuts, small fortunes have been divided between Brady and smaller contractors, who made their bids en their own account. Iu Louisiana, Dr. B. II. Petersen secured an excess of $40,261 ou a route of 201 miles. Dr. Petersen was formerly a member of the Warmoth ring iu Louisiana, but new lives in this cty upon the income derived from his dealings with Brady. Chase Andrews, who received en two routes, each 20 miles long, an excess of $12,257, is a Washington man. lie was for merly a clerk in the posteffice department here, but was removed by Postmaster General Jewell, for malfeasance iu office. Jehn A. Walsh, who secured an increase of $118,475, en the route from Prcscett te Santa Fe, for which he originally contracted for $18,500, is a native of Louis iana. When the war broke out he joined the rebel army, but after the reconstruc tion of Louisiana, he joined the Warmoth ring. He was indicted in New Orleans for making illicit whisky, and was saved from imprisonment by Brady, who was at that lime supci visor of internal revenue in New Orleans and refused te appear against him "Be candid, doctor," inl.l the patient, when round with a bottle et Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, ' Yeu knew It Is a geed medicine, and the M.
