James was made Postmaster-General despite the Star Route Ring. iLs scheme was to have a subservient man ap pointed, with an ex-Police Com missioner of the city of New York as second assistant, .fames went in with the avowed purpose of cleaning out" the Department and of making it self-supporting. His experience in the New York Postoflice had convinced hhn that the department could not only he made to pay expenses, but to re- turn a revenue to the Govern-. incut. An examination ol the records in the contract ollice disclosed the operations of the Ring. The corruption through collusion with Federal oflicials was laid bare. Contractors who had tried to do business honestly hud been frozen out. It was clear that money had been paid for the awarding of the contracts. It was evident that the Sixth Auditor's e: r ,1. fP..,.- 1 . ..... ,.,,., .,.,", ! was controlled bv th conspini- , - .,-,-, , ' tors.

The result of Postmaslcr-Gen eral James's preliminary 1 J tion was laid belore Attorney- . ,r t- , ., General MacVeajrh. It astonished him.

Even women were engaged in the plundering. The conspirators employed them to in - fluence Congressmen. Some of the representatives honestly urged increased service and speed, en tirely unaware that they were the tools of the ring. The investigation is nearly com- pleted. The case against some of the conspirators is thoroughly pre- -pared. All now required is the action of the Grand Juiy. The evidence has been submitted to Col. George Bliss and B.H. Brew- ster, the assistant counsel em- ployed by the Government, and they say that it is entirely satis- factory.

One of the great London jour nals, the Pall Mall Gazette, favors I an Anglor-American alliance and thinks that, if in the face of almost insurmountable difficulties an Eu ropean concert of action is recog nized as a political necessity, there should be au Anglo-American union wide enough to include all English-speaking men. Says the Gazette: "To-day, when England and America stand mourners by one grave, we ma venture to hope that the bitter momories and dividing animosities engendered by war are finally passing away, and we suggest that England and America shall endeavor to arrange some kind of informal union for the prevention of internecine strife."
