SAC "aEette ahu inc postmaster.
After the time of our going to pless yesLer-
day, the following testimony was taken:
Jacob Kefer, Weighing Clerk at the Post t-of-
fee, testf d that when he heard of the deten-
ton of the Gazettes, he went over with one or
two OF them, aud on inquiry was told that they
were lorrGgular subscribers; had no conversa-
tiOn about the papers being detained. On the
9th OF December witness said that the Gazette
ought tu be notified Of the detention Of its pa
pers. Don't know if he told Mr.. Kdd that the
Pos master did not want the Gazette notified
Of the detention OF its papers, but may have
done 80, as he thought such was the case
little over week ago Mr. W oodlef one Of the
clerks o1 the office, came to him with an atflda-
VII ready Tor signing, which stated that he
(Reifer) had told tue Gazette folks OF the deten-
Llon OF their papers. He refused to sign it, and
told the facts IN the case. The affidavit was
modified, ana he then signed it. On cross ex-
animate on he stated that when he had asked
the Gazette people about their papers. Mr..
Johnson came to hum and gave him fits, say
ing: Now, you and will have it," and that
he told witness when the next lot came to ue-
tain them. He also said that after he went
back to the Office after his sickness MIR. Wahle
would not notice him or speak to him. The
Enquirer and Gazette paid their postage bills
every week, the Times only once month.
MIR. johnson, Assistant Postmaster, was re-
called, and denied the truth OF Keiter's state
ments about him scold. az him In toto.
To-DAY's PROCEEDINGS.
Mr.. johnson was the first witness called, and
stated tilat he wanted to make a correction
concerning his statements of last evening He
SAID that ne mad a conversation on Dec or
wi n MIR. hiefer IN regard to the detention of
the Gazette. He did not reprimand MIN: he
dld not know whether the Gazette Company
SAID the lot of papers was for regular sub
scrlbers, unless it was in that conversation:
he dld not hold the papers any longer than
necessary to hear the result Of the inVestiRa-
ton at the Department in Washington. Alter |
this, on Dec. Il, another lot OF papers cane in,
and again sent to Washington
received notice on the 9Th
from headquarters that the matter |
had been referred to special agent. | DON'T
think that the Gazette Company was seen
about the matter until that conversation. We |
were simply OBTAINING the papers by our regu-
lar orders. We had no direct knowledge of the
law which requires Postmasters to examine
into mail matters, and which, If ignored, i'm
poses penalty. When ASKED whether il was
not true that Mr. Wahe had ill feelings
against the Gazette, the witness said that he
preferred that the question be asked of some
one else. Wahle's personal leellag to the
question, he thought, was not favorable, bat
ue considered his (Wahle'S official
