on discrimination by Representative Ewart,
Mr. Porter said he would not have appointed shidy to

corning the preliminary report, saying that it was
submitted in writing after he had left the Office.
although he had known It's nature shortly before he

that when Postmaster Paul, Of Milwaukee, had been
appointed by President Cleveland, he viceprcsl-
dent of the Milwaukee Civil Service Association.
POstmaS ter General Wauamahcr called a
witness, and asked particularly concerning his action
in the Of Shidy. - far he remembered, Mr..
Roosevelt had told him that shdy had aided the COM
mission in H., investigation of the Milwaukee Post
Office and the postmaster had taken offence and dis
l4H flA
preston that SLdy was excellent man and worthy
Of tie interest taken In him and Mr. Roosevelt asked
him whether he had any objection 70 him Roosevelt
asking place for him. Iie told Mr.. Roosevelt No.
lie subsequently wrote letter to the Supernt endent
Of the Census, saying that he saw no objection to
