ttiWwat the Btation-house of the glovolapa and
Totalo Railroad in that place,' weiip' brought to
drltoitjr yesterday afternoon, charged with com
mitting heavy depredations upon the malls.
, It has been known for a qonaidcrablo time that
thoSandueky mail pouches' havd been tamporea
with at Elyria. Western mails for the former
place arechangcd at the latter, and It lias been
the custom to Keep them in the baggage-room of
the Btati6n-house to await the arrival of the San
dusky train. Tbifl room Is located a short dis
tance from that occupied by the operator. ;
Durieg the past three or four months pouchGß
have been occasionally found cut, and the matter
was repotted at Washington. It was at length
docmdu wbrtbv' of attention, and ThouiaH (1.
Shallcross; Special Agent of the Post-offico Dev
partment, while.on duty iu the West, was ordered
to Elyria, to investigate the matter, He con
ducted his operations with great, shrewdness,
“loafing” about the station, incognito, but
with his ears and eyes wide open. Ho soon
satisfied himself that either the night
operator or tho baggage-agent wad the
criminal. Coming to this city, warrants for their
arrest were lßflned by, United States Commis
sioner Cleveland, with which he returned to
Elyria and made, the arresth, about nine o’clock
yesterday morning. Upon their arrival here, in
the afternoon,- they weretaken before the Com
missioner and held for examination at 9 o’clock
A. M. to-day. Webb, the baggage agent, gave
bail for his appearance, bat the unfortunate boy,
in default of pall.waa lodged in jail. 4
The operatormade a fall confession of his emit,
fmddecfatcfittajt |4r.t?ebb tvasentlrelyinnocent
of any khbwiedgb whatever of his criminal trans
actiotos. Erom ils statements and other Bonrces,
it has been ascertained that seventeen mailbags
have been cut open, bnt of the number of letters
abstracted,or thejamonnt of money taken,.no es
timate lots came to our knowledge. A large
quantityof rifled lettere was found in the vault
of tho Elyria Station house. A lot was also found
at Rldgevifit! Station, four miles from Elyria, at
which place a brother of the culprit is employed
as operator. -It is not believbd, however, that
tho fatter Is In any way implicated in the rob
beries. ■ -
Counterfeiting—Capture of a Gang of
Counterfeiters In Chicago.
(From aCbloago Paper of the22d.)
It has beeh known for several months past that
a counterfeiting station wad located In Chicago,
and the UnltealStates dostectives have been busy
gathering evidence and tracing the business to
some definite point, bnt until recently have mot
withUttle or-no success. Yesterday, however,
SamuelM. Felker, one of the detectives of the
Treasury Department In the Northwest, succeeded
by following a cine ho had obtained several weeks
before, in winding up the business of at least one
establishment, by arresting the offenders and
eeiking their tools. For some time past, the
officers attention has been called to the actions
of a negro-who rejoices in the historical name
of Daniel Webster. Early yesterday morning,
Felker, wilh one or two assistants, proceeded to
No. 869 South May.street, the house occupied by
Webster, and after arresting the inmates, five in
number, a search of the premises was made. It
is alleged that there was round a large quantity
of counterfeit currency, all; ready for 1 ‘shoving, 1 ’
a number of hundred dollars only partly finished,
dies, stamps, plates, ink, presses, and in fact
everything needed to carry on a first-class coun
terfeiting establishment. The parties arrested
were Webster and Jack Woolsey, both negroes;
John Mitchell, Lonisa EUza Mitchell, his wife,
aHd Henry Miller, the last three being white.
They, together wlth the money and Implements,
were brought before Commissioner Hoyne,where
an examination was hid.- , On the way, it is re
ported, Webster offered Felker $1,600 to let him
go, winch some one in tho party took, but re-,
fused to allow his prisoner to escape. On the
examination, it appeared that all of the defend
ants- resided together, and that Mrs. Mitchell
was their housekeeper.-? It was also charged that
they had a honse-located at No. 50 Sherman
street, which 'ires occasionally occupied by one
or more of the party whenever it Was fonnd ne
cessary to forward their business. The evidence
againßt Mitchell, : Woolsey, Jaud Miller was not
considered of a sufficiently ■ positive character to
warrant their conviction, and they were released.
The othor two, Webster and-Mrs.-Mitchell, were
so far implicated that they were held for a fur
ther examination on Tuesday next, with , ball
fixed at $lO,OOO and $5O respectively.
DISASTERS.
Storm on the Plains—Terrible Adven
ture of James Clicover.
[Correspondence of the St Paul Pioneer.]
Fort Aukrckombie, D. T., Feb. 13th.—I am
eorry to have to relate that Mr. James Clieever,
lor many years residing at 8t Paul,recently came
near meeting an untimely death upon oar Da
kota prairies, from freezing and starvation. He,
in company frith two half-breeds (mall carriers),
left Fort Totten, on Devil’s Lake, for this point,-
about January Ist. They had with them a dog
train, for the purpose of transporting their ra
tions and the mail.
The facts, as X have been able to gather them
from the nalf-brecd, who has 6lnce come in, as '
well as from a letter received by David McCan
ley, Esq., from a gentleman at Fort Totten, upon
the same subject, are, in substance, as follows:
Cbeever, who, -during the winter, has been em
ployed in the store of C. A. Ruifee, at Fort Tot
ten, left that post as above stated.for the purpose
of meeting Mr. Ruifee bore on business. After
having proceeded abont half way from the fort
to Bolt a Chichaux, a mall station, (or camping
place), about equidistant between Fort Totten
and Bibloy s old crossing of the Cheyenne river,
they were overtaken by one of those terrible
stormß known only to those who have been fa
vored with the opportunity of enjoying a winter
of frontier lifo m this particular latitude. . The
little party succeeded in battling with the ele
ments until they, arrived within about three miles
of Boit a Chichaux, when Cheeper,.. having be
come much exhausted, was compelled to time re
fuge in a coolie. The dogs were also left behind,
as they weremuch fatigued and unable to pro
ceed.
The two half-breeds went ahead to the station
for the purpose of obtaining relief, but were un
able to return until the expiration of three days
—the storm, continuing In full blast all the time.
While on their way to the relief of-Cheover, they
mot him coming In—and in what manner! Two
of the dogs, half-starved, were crawling at his,-
heels, white by a string he dragged what was left
of their mate, a portion of which he had devoured:
■raw (for he haa no meana of making a Are), to
save himself from starvation. The dogs, In their
desperation, had deawiyed all hla provisions on
the first night he remained In the coolie, and to
kill and cat one of them was hiß only safety.
On arriving in camp both his hands and feet
were found to be badly frozen, and the flesh has
since commenced falling off. This is sad news
lor the many friends of ‘‘Jim,” as he Is familiarly
called, and I only hope that I may soon be abb
to write ' more cheermgly concerning hsm.
He still remains at Bolt a Chichaux, and lam
told la receiving such care as 1 the semi-barbarians
at that point are able to administer. Fitz.
