TO succeed General Brady as secodd assistant

but he Is thorough business man and has
the entire confidence OF Postmast ter General
James, and as his duties are confined princi.
pally to making contracts, ne Will knt W how
to perform them to the satisfaction and profit
of the government. General Blaiy mad no
idea that his room was more desirable than
his company, and when The postmaster. gen
eral peremplOrily requested him TO resign, al
though surprised he had no recourse but To
obey AS 1t was not known when the senate dead
lock would end, so that his successor could be
confirmed he was called upon to resign that
the department might be rid Of bis obnoxious
services. 1t is said the department. is In pos
session of information that will make 1t very
warm and unpleasant for him before the end,
because Of his too close Intimacy with Star,
with contractors, and the probabilities are that
he will be sued for the recovery of money
fraudulently appropriated, and perhaps in
dicted too. The pOstmaster.general IL conii-
dent that with the frauds he has already dis
covered In the star routes and other needless
expenses, that he can In two years make his
department entirely self sustaining.
