WARRINGTON, Sept 3-Proceedings against
persons implicated in the Buffalo frauds upon
the Post Office Department have not been sus-
pended, but the indictments will be amehded
and the prosecutions urged with vigor. One
of the workmen of the Buffalo contractor ar
rived to-day with important information, which
was communicated to the proper authorities.
The drafts which were paid by the contractors
in favor of the persons here who secured the
passage of their fraudulent accounts are in
possession of the officers of the government
CONSUL FOR BRAZIL.
The President has recognized Stephen Hig

THE CHARGES AGAINST COMMISSIONER ROLLINS.
Commissioner Rollins remains in Washing
ton engaged in the duties of his office, and has
no intention whatever of leaving the city on
any business connected with charges against
himself in New York His opinion is that the
u. s. District Attorney at New York has en-
tire charge of the matter, and there is nothing
whatever pertaining to it which can require
his attention personally or otherwise. Sec,y
McCulloch, in response to a telegram this
morning from the District Attorney inquiring
whether the latter should appear, replied: sit
seems to me that under the law of 1870 you
should appear" Information has been receiv-
ed here that the Deputy Marshal who has the
warrants has been instructed by Solicitor
Bnckley to make no more arrests at present.
1t 81. understood that the response of Sec'y
McCulloch to the Dirtrict Attorney at New
York takes the matter of prosecution out OF
the hands of Mr.. Bnckley.
- sAN AN EXPLANATION.
Many letters are being received here regard
ing the large increase in the public deDt this
month. 1t is stated at the Treasury, as the
cause Of the increase that the first two months
of the fiscal year were forced into August by
reason OF the Appropriation bill not being pub
lished until that month Many of the requisi-
lions from the War and other departments
were for contracts which were due sixty or
ninety days previous and not paid because last
years appropriations did not cover them. For
example, the Indian Bureau will exhaust near
ly one-third of its entire appropriation for the
present fiscal year in the August acquisitions.
