WASHINGTON, May 2.-The following
is letter received from ex-senator Dor
sey by the P. NJ. general:
To Hon. Th0s. L. James, Postmaster Gen.
erGL:
SIR-You do not need to be informed
that for many days past the newspaper
press of the country has teemed with
Geographic dispatches from Washington,
charging frauds in the postoffice depart
ment, and that in them l have been
made the conspicuous mark for the
shafts of the assailants. The authors
of this sensation profess to speak in all
this of matters discovered in the depart
ment since your entry there. IT any of
the charges made against me were
true, those who made them would
be able to produce some evidence to sus-
tain it. 1t is upon this point that ad-
dress you this letter. I make no COM
plant that you have not up to this time
deemed it proper to deny the published
statements, though the late charge allud-
ed to appear as If they were the result OF
investigation by you, but / claim as
right that with me, and who ever may
bring to you. you make such investiga-
ton as to every contract with which my
name has been connected, as will en-
able you to give me in writing the true
status in each case. / have to ask the
request be granted at once, in order that
may not rest under injurious and un-
lust imputations nor be unnecessarily
detained from other business to defend
my reputation against base and Unbound
ed assaults. Very respectfully,
s. w. DORSEY.

New York Tribune: There is per-
ceptible change in the tone Of comment
in the Republican press on the debate in
the senate. This is largely due TO the
admirable speech Of Senator Frye. His
scathing arraignment OF the bulldozers'
course in the late canvass has apparent
~ convinced the people that II best TO
meet at once the question whether one
class IN the south shall continue to ex-
ercise unlimited power. Four years ago
the Republicans committed the mistake
of trusting TO the promises Of Southern
Democrats and surrendering to them
them absolute control in twelve states.
And last year they found themselves shut
out completely from all hope OF obtain
ing an electoral vote IN any enc of those
states, though there YVES an undoubted
Republican majority in i've or six Of
them. 1t is dawning upon the minds Of
thinking men that however desirable a
cessation Of political discussion may be,
IL Is desirable to settle this question now
and for all time. For this change In
public opinion Senator Frye is largely 60

fore We can give specific opinion as to
whether anything will be agreed upon
by the influential gentlemen, who have
been sent as delegates to the conference,
which even they may deem worth sub
hitting to their respective governments.
1t is q question whether the advocates
Of either Bi-metalism orsof Mono-metal-
ism will receive any tangible benefit
from the discussion. AS matters now
appear the advocates OF "No-metalIsm
will be materially strengthened. in their
position by the Paris conference.

tional conference assembled, were only
to consider the relative value Of yellow
butter and white lard, and endeayor 10
fix upon and announce the exact ratio
which the one bears to the other in the
markets Of the world, they would be
about as likely to reach a definite and
wise conclusion-''to report to their re-
speciive governments."-as they can in
connection with the "harder'' subjects
now before them.

Perhaps General Brady would explode

East St. Iouis In Danger.

ST.. LOUIS, May 2.-The wash-out on the
Ohio 81 Mississippi railroad dyke or en-
bankment in East ST. Louis, which con-
meets the island with the main land, re-
ported last night, is about 30 feet
wide. The dyke is 1900 feet long and
runs parallel with and 800 feet north of
what is known as Bowman's dyke. The
effect of the break was simply to fill the
space between the two dykes with water.
The Bowman dyke has been strengthened
in its weak points, its low places raised,
and it is believed now to be capable of
outstanding the pressure upon il, but
should the river rise much more, the
water will overflow the dyke, in which
case the result will be disastrous, as this
embankment is the only barrier between
the river and Cahakia creek. and should
if break or overflow, the greater part, If
not all of East st. Louis, would be iu-
undated. The river is still rising, and a
general inundatiOn is imminent. All
the railroad companies and city authori-
ties of East st. Louis are fully alive TO
the impending danger, and are doing
everything possible to arrest the threat
ened calamity.
