CHICAGO, October9. The hler-OocGH's
Washington special says some weeks
since the President announced his inten-
ton OF sitting out unfit men among
Federal Office holders at the South. This
subject has boen a matter OF serious and
prolonged consultation between secrs-
tary Bristow. Postmaster General Jewett
ami the President. These officers had
found and 80 reported to tho President
that the rule Of Senate which yir-
tually places the whole patronage Of the
State in the hands OF n Republican Sem
ator by allowing him some discussion IN
regard to all combinations, had resulted
in some OF tho States in forcing many OF
the most unfit men upon the public SER
vice. 1t was agreed that prompt
and rigorous measures must DO
taken to remedy tho event
and it was decided that
searching investigation he made and
changes should fellow where ever 1t was
found they were demanded, and That
hereafter the responsibility Of rejecting
at men should DO thrown upon the SEN
ate. The first OF these Investigations
has Just been completed. The State
selected for examination was Texas,
whore the combinations have all been
at the control Of Senator Flanagan.

Service and Internal Revenue Agent,

thorough examination Of the Postal and
Treasury Service in the State OF Texas

constant. Certificates OF performance
Of mail services over routes where little
IL any has been performed, and in CIV
ing certificates M 20 tho standing Of par
ties in the straw bids. Both the rcvc-
nue. and postal service we're found in an
intolsrab.s condition. Similar inyssti-
cations will taks place at once in sew
eral other States, and wherever found
that the persons whose nominations have
been insisted upon by senators, are UNI
lit, a prompt removal will take place.
Mossrs. Woodward and Gargin are now
engaged In writing ont their reports.
The officers found to DO engaged in
the general thioving and mscality, are
