New York Star. Mr. Hayes, you are generally deemed an honest man. Those who differ from you have yet faith in your aims. They do not believe that you would carry elections by fraud or wholesale bribery. The letters we have published about secret printing of currency for election purposes, in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, are from a person in a position to know whereof he speaks, and known to us as reliable. . If you would have the public still believe you pure, inspect Bureau iu person, and stop this villiany. Do not refer it to Mr. Sherman. Go there yourself. —
