  In a static spherically symmetric Einstein-Maxwell spacetime the class of
astrophysical solution found out by Ray and Das (2002) and Pant and Sah (1979)
are revisited here in connection to the phenomenological relationship between
the gravitational and electromagnetic fields. It is qualitatively shown that
the charged relativistic stars of Tolman (1939) and Bayin (1978) type are of
purely electromagnetic origin. The existence of this type of astrophysical
solutions is a probable extension of Lorentz's conjecture that electron-like
extended charged particle possesses only `electromagnetic mass' and no
`material mass'.
