to inquire into the methSds of business in
the executive department. of the government

CLARKSON'SBIG CLEAVER
HE TELLS ABOUT THE FOURTH
CLASS POSTOFFICES.

A Claim That the Wholesale Changes
Already Made Have Been on Ac
count of Other Than Political Rea-
sons - Over 1000 Appointm ents
Made Just Prior to March 4, and
Held Up.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-First Assistant
Postmaster General Clal kson was ques-
toned to-day concerning certain newspaper
CRITICS ns directed against his policy In the
appointment of fourth class postmasters.
In answer he said that practically all of the
changes thus far have been made for other
than political reasons. A large number of
appointments made during the last
administration were notoriousy bad I;
a considerable number had been found to be
delinquent in their accounts other changes
had been made in order to secure better
locations for Offices aud in many cases ap-
pointments had been made with view to
the removal of offices from the vicinity Of
saloons In every case Of removal there
had been good and sufficient cause therefor.
PRECEDENT OF HIS PREDECESSOR.
Perhaps he added. cit is not generally
known that my predecessor, within month
or six weeks prior to March 4, made over
masters, for the purpose apparently Of
forcing them upon this administration.
This course had never been pursued to my
knowledge, by any previous administra-
ton.
UNDER ARTHUR'S REGIME.
During the last several weeks Of Presi-
dent Arthur's term not a single fourth-cass
postmaster was appointed except in rare in
sta ces where the exigencies Of the service
demanded it, and when Postmaster
General Hatton resigned there were
more than 5000 designations on
fl e in his Office The commissions of the
thousand appointees of my predecessor
were, of course, withheld and these vacan-
cies with others are now being filed as
rapidly as possible.
NEW DIVISION SUPERINTENDENTs.
The postmaster general today, upon rec
ommendati IN Of General Superintendent
Bell, appointed the following named divis-
ion superintendent of the railway mail ser
vice:
Tenth division, headquarters st. Paul,
Norman Perkins, vice Walter A. Butler
resigned; seventh division, headquarters ST..
L uis, j. p Lind 'ey. vice r. NJ. Thomas
resigned; eleventh division, headquarters
Fort Worth, j. s. Weaver, vice George W.
Hunter resigned.
WHO THE MEN ARE.
Mr.. Perkins has been in the postal
service about seventeen years, and has
risen by successive promotions to be chief
clerk at st. Paul.
Mr.. Lindsey has been in the service about
the same length Of time, and has also risen
by promotions to be chief clerk at Kansas
City.
Mr.. Weaver is also an old and trusted
employe of the railway postal service and
is now clerk on the Selaiia and Denison
lire.
These appointments like those announced
two days ago are made solely on account
of long, faithful and distinctiyely efficient
SerYice.

in Their Criticisms.

man, there are several reputable naval Off
GERS and a grandson of Admiral Farragut.
