WASHINGTON, Nov. 2l.-P ostmaster

ter to-day to Mr.. Joseph Modill, odito,
of the Chicago Tribune:
WASuINeToN, Nov. o.. Dear Sir-Iu
an article in your paper Of November II,
IN which Mr.. Clarks6n, q member of thC
Republican national commit
Tee, gives many, but i'm
my opinion not all The reasons why
Blaine was defeated, | find the follow
ing; "The order Of postmastor-General
liallon, requiring the New York post.
Office, with its thousands of clerks
ana Carriers to DO kept open, prevented
enough republicans from voting Ia
nave overcome what is now
claimed as Mr.. Cleveland's plu-
rality. The usual order was
posted in tho New York office ON Mon
day, saying that after ~ o'clock election
day clerks could take holiday,
Monday night, by Mr.. Hatton's
order. This was overruled and
clerks living in distant parts of tho CITY,
VINO mad To go to work before the
polls opened and remain af-
ter they were closed, were un.
able to vote" No such order
as that referred TO by Mr.. Clarlson was
issued by myself. There is no law
authorizing the closing of post
Offices on election day. Prior
to tho recent election dispatches
were received from many places asking
authority to close offices. They were
answered, as 1t has always been the
custom Of the department, to the
el.oct mat there was no
law authorizing the closing
of Offices on aInption dow At. cI,-i-.r
says my order was issued Monday night.
Ii Mr.. Clarkson did not know, his c6ief
of committee, Mr.. Elkins, did know that I
was not in Washington ut that time, I'm,
III burlington, Iowa. The following
dispatch will show:
New York, Nov. g. Frank Hatton. Post
mnster-General - Postmaster Burlington.
1t is reported at the postoflice in this
Guy that letter-carriers ara not to have
tho usual holiday during elections
and that tho order had been issued to
that effect. This will lose us many
hundred votes. Can you telegraph SOME
remedy. Answer.
Signed s. b. EIK1Ns.
To this | replied that there was no
making election day holiday, but that
the postmaster at New York, if he do
sired, could certainly arrange TO allow
the employees in his office to vote with
out seriously interfering with the de-
livery of the mail. Ii seems about the
despatch from Mr.. Elkins or one
similar, was also sent To Mr.. Uszen.
who was then acting postmaster- general
and who answered II rs follows, the dis,
patch being sent the night before She
election:
To n, g. Pearson, postmaster, New York.
Please give employees an opportunity
to exercise their right of suffrage.
Signed AID. H{YEN.
Acting Postmaster. General.
HAD MIR. Clarksou,or Mr.. Elkins, been
postmaster-general at the time, they
might have issued an order clos
ing all postoflires in a.
United States during election
day, hut | hardly think they would have
done 30 after reading the law.
