ex-president to receive the nomination on
the first ballot will be the elimination of
the great tariff reformer from the contest.

no means follows that the correctness OF

THE BALTIMORE POsToFFICE.
The civil Service Commission Upheld by the
House Committee.

WASHINGTON, June,17-The Democratic
majority of the House committee on civil
service reform agreed upon report of the
results of the investigation of the alleged
violation of the civil service laws at Balti-
more. 1t says it is singular that the post
masters general should have endorsed the
idea that the men charged with a violation
of the civil service law were entitled to
notice before inquiry as 10 their guilt was
entered upon ana also TO the assistance of
cuonsel in the investigation.
The examination of the testimony taken
by the inspectors and upon which the
postmaster-generalc claims to have acted,
shows neither their conclusions nor how
they were supported by the statements of
the parties implicated. On he contrary the
testimony reported by the inspectors con-
firm and corrcborate that taken by the
civil service commission and the severe
structures and criticisms which the ingpec-
tors passed upon the work of Roosevelt in
making the investigation were not borne
out by the facts stated by the
witnesses. The report continuing,
says: 1.-The reports of the postmaster
general to the many questions propounded
by your committee were eyasive and ut
terly inconsistent with the evidence on
which be claims to have acted" Further,
it says: 1.-THE garbled statement Of the
evidence taken before the inspectors, fur
