Says No Change Will be Made in the New

WASHINGTON, March 31.-Secretary
Fosters attention was called yesterday
morning to the newspaper rumor that
the removal of Collector Erhardt and
Appraiser Cooper, of New York, had
been decided upon as the result of the
investigation into the management of
the custom house and appraisers Office,
which is now in progress. Secretary
Foster said the report was news to him;
that no such determination had been ar
rived at, for the sufficient reason that
he had given the subject no considera-
ton. 1t would be fully month before
the investigation. would close and it
would then be time to take action, If
any were necessary when all the re-
suits of the investigation were before
him. If the results as found by the COM
missioner warranted summary action
he hoped to be able to take it in the in
terest of improved business methods.
He added that there was a class of i'm
porters who thought that they Were
treated as suspicious personages and he
hoped to relieve them of this annoyance.
Assistant secretaries Nettleton and
Spaulding knew nothing of the rumored
removals and Solicitor Hepburn, the
chairman of the commission investiga-
ting the two offices, was much amused
that that the commission should be SC
considerably relieved from the task Of
making findings by the newspapers

old German and his son, who were called
from their cabin shortly after the open
ing of Oklahoma and cruelty shot to

say that in time they will fasten the
guilt upon him and his asspciates.
