PIoYES OF THE OFFICE.
The cTos5-examination OF Mr. Benedict was con-
tinued before the House printing committee yes

acknowledged that he had authorized the use of
his name, FOR reference only, In q circular, ad-
dressed TO postmasters seeking to learn the poti-
cal status Of persons in their districts series
OF questions werc put TO the witness with the in
teRtion OF getting from him a positive statement

mission that he emp!oycd spies 10 report to him
concerning the conduct and work OF employees
He admitted that he got private information but
refused 10 give the names OF the persons who fur

discharges the fact that he had found the persons
discharged less competent than others Suose-
quently the witness declared that there had been
no discharges from the ofice for purely political
reasons He claimed credit for economy IN the AL
