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. MUSICAL.
