N.r. 29 The report of Ko irth .KsitaIlt l'ostmaster-Gceral ata Ma on the investigation into the pM otuce uopartnient was mane public to-day. together with a menioraudum of the president relative thereto. Mr. Hristow presents al :rcat length the reeults cf the investigations, a large part of w hich has already Utn made public. After referring to the causes whit h led to the investigation uf the post ofli g department and the appropriation by KaMPTana Of H,00fl to carry ou the work, Pr-itiit Hoosevelt ays in this niemotandum: "The Investigation made by Mr. Bristol discloses a condition of gn- crrui'tioti in the office of the first assistant attorney general for the post office department. In the case of the superintendent of fr.c- deliv. ry. Machen, the evidence shows that his misconduct i mined lately after his appointment, in September. IMa. In the case of the general superintendent of alarits and allowances. Heavers, it began soon aftre he was appointed to that place, in 1857. In the case of Assistant Attorney-General Tyner. it has pone on for a number of years, but it is imp'.- 1ble fco sav exactly when it beuan A melancholy feature of the case I that. with one exception, all the offenders ha 1 11 f"r a nni-er : .-:in. in the Svernment service " Th'4 P"Went then nies a li.-t of the 14 P1 - employes wh.j were inlitil and of 20 outsiders who were connected with their misdoings.

The president then continues: '"The three hlef offenders in the government service were Tyner, Mithen and Beavers. The friends of Tyner have advanced the theory that In ! . i L-e the h.. i . .. ' r .v as really his nephew by tnarria ; Barrett, w ho was his assistant in the office for a part of the time, and that Tyner's offernes are due to his failing bodily and i mental powers. The facts set forth ia Mr. Bristow's report do not tend to i substantiate the validity of ths exreft. Fir Ma hen and Heavers no ecu.ve of any kind has t;een alleged. In the case of Ifetcalf, the superintendent of the nioney-tr"'cr s; fWtafis, the m'igt vigonms protests were at firt made on his behalf by a larte nuruler of reputable citizens, and also by others, who were at the time aWatai reptitLle. but who. It has since l.en discovered, were profiting by Met calf's misconduct ' During Mac hen's term of CM vita h was twice investigated by the coneress:. once by a committee f ). senate and once by a committee of the house, but cleared on each occasion. Yet at that l.rv tkArihst oa Lot l.u. mW nmm m In , Vprent invtlfntion, he was engaged in ,h. corrupt b.isiness for which h h now rPmm,(, and ln,,lr,ed.

However, the prime- ? d Is not new legislation, but the punishment of those who offend against existing laws. "The p.-t .ffi, ,. department Is making certalT c hanges in the me'hods of administration, notably In the method of insjec tion. by which the service will he improved and the chance of corrup tlon existing without discovery be minimized: but the only way to meet the real evi; is to punish the offender by remova" in any treat, and where possible tr pros.c.tkn under the criminal s'attites in snv ereat umi BaaBtte n.li.i. i. certain at times to occor.

This Heath denied, and the district attorney decided that there was not evidence enough to warrant the Indictment of Heath. In conclusion. Mr Hristow says: ItrUtow'a Kport. -More than forty Inspectors have ieen employed upon this work, some of them continuously every day since the In festigst, i n began. The records of 1,000 past faastea hav been examined, ar.d the t.les of many divisions of the department, covering a period of irom tlx tO ia years, scrutinized. "The cyafcaaj of organized cornip' ion that has ieen disclcased legan in b'J.l. aid to.it lmied until stopped by this r.e gm ion The amount or m.n.ey red by the ornipt offlc -ials and their confederates Is small as torupared to the total loss to the government.
