PLENTY OF WITNESSES.
JTnless. however, private reports are false
the Government is going to have quite as
many witnesses as il needs, and those VINO

diyiGuals is necessarily slow work and
takes good deal OF time. But THIS
work Is getting done. The Postmaster
General and the Attorney. General are IN
close communication. Further removals In
the Post. Office Department will be made at
once. and the Government has already in lis
possession evidence which, when 1t Is
brought before grand jury, will cause the
indictment on criminal charges oil several
important persons and their arrest.
THE JOBBERs ALARMED.

jobbers have gathered here TO consult as 10
means OF defence. They are anXions, be.
cause they do not know where justice VIII
strike first, and they seem inclined to hang
together in the hope that solid or bold
front will drive off the President and the
officers Of Justice. There are rumors that
huge bucket OF dirty water Is preparing
TO be emptied on the Presidents head IN
the hope that this will make bin run OF IN
a panic. But the jobbers deceive them
selves. There is the best authority Tor say.

James. and Attorney. General MacNeagb are
determined to 90 10 the bottom OF the star

there il also good authority for the state

Government in possession OF important ana
decisive evidence against others on cohui-
