The Department. Investigations

The extraordinary correspondence be-
tween Hon. John NJ Glover Of Missouri
and Mr.. Hayes about an extraordinary
state of things in the department, saws the
ST. Louis Republican, deserves something
more than passing notice. Mr. Glover
Is chair man OF the house committee on ex.
-penditures in the treasury department, and
has been conducting laborious investi-
CATION OF matters in that department. 1t
appears from his letter that the committee
have encountered strange difficulties in
their work-difhculties that are disgrace
TO the system OF doing business in that de-
partment, aud to those high officers in it
who have the power of appointing to aud
removing FROM Office. 1t is as much as q
subordinate's official head is worth tc
testify before the committee and tell what
he knows about treasury management
tor, to do so, makes him the victim Of
combination which does not permit thu
truth to be told. Organized combina
