WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE house
committee ON reform in the civil service
today resumed it's investigation OF the
charges that certain federal employees
in Baltimore violated the civil service
law without incurring punishment.
Postmaster General Wanamaker ap-
peared, bringing with him, at the re-
quest of the committee, the report OF
the postoffice inspectors, giving the re-
suit of their investigation into the Balti-
more postoffice. He desired to say,
in view of the comment upon
the time that elapsed between the in
vestigation and the deniale of the en-
ployees, that more than four months
elapsed before the commission investi-
CATION report reached the president, so
the men had no opportunity to make
an earlier response to the charges.
Wanamaker further said he bad no
disposition to defend these men, but he
could not personally investigate them,
so he turned them over to the proper
officers and was governed by their re-
ports.
Boatner said ''It appears that these
parties, before the commission was au-
thorized to make an investigation, ad-
mitted their guilt, but the postmaster,
whose,duty it was to dismiss them, took
no action, and when the matter came to
you (Wanamaker), instead of acting
upon the confessions of the parties, you
instituted another investigation for the
purpose of enabling the people to deny
what they had already admitted"
The. postmaster-general moved his
hand in remonstrance while this state.
ment was being made and then replied:
II respectfully protest against the state
ment that the investigation was insti-
tuted for the purpose of having them
deny the charges. 1t is not the truth"
Raines requested that the postmaster
general be permitted to proceed with the
statement that he had prepared, but
Boatner insisted that the committee
wanted light upon the point he
suggested. He wished to know
why the postmaster-general ig-
nored the recommendations OF the
civil service commission, and accepted
the statements made by the accused
parties in exonerating themselves as
having greater weight than the state
ments they had made inculpating them
selves.
The postmaster-general quietly re-
marked that he had no information on
the subject. He was most willing and
anxious to lay before the committee all
information within his power, but de-
MED the truth of the statement that
any attempt was made to shield the
men, or that any unusual course was
pursued.

THAT B|METALL|c CONFERENCE,
European Nations Willing t(
Take Part in 1t.
England's Acquiescence Assures the
Success of the Plan.
italy and Austria VIII Be n 1.-THE
British Press Afraid that John
Bull VIII Get Caught In
Yankee Trap.

By the Associated Press.l
WASHINGTON, May 12.-The accept
ance by England, of the invitation to
take part in an international monetary
conference, will, it is believed, carry
other European nations with it, and as
sure the success of the movement. 1t is
understood favorable responses have
also been received from Italy and Aus
tro-Hungaly.
LONDON, May 12.-The Standard says:
"No harm can come from the interna-
tional bimetallic conference, but pru-
dence must be shown in the choice of
delegates. They should have no fixed
theory, but be trusted to look dispas
sionately at facts. We must confess
that we have little hopes that direct
good will come from any conference
having the object of giving fictitious ex-
change value to any commodity under
the sun. 1t is as Important to prevent
harm as to do good, and incalculable
injury might be done the country if the
notion was indiscreetly encouraged that
the government was disposed to tamper
with contracts to suit particular sections
OF the empire, or special countries, at
the expense of Others"
The Times says: "We regret the
course the government has taken. 1t
appears to be playing into the hands OF
the politicians in power in Washington.
If it were possible by the protocols OF
the conference to establish a permanent
parity between gold and silver, the OBJ
ject would be worth the effort and sac
ri6ce, but it is as impracticable as for
pint pot to hold quart. The effect of
the conference will only be to keep the
silver market and the whole question
of currency in an unsettled state for a
long time to come. Is anything likely
to be done by an international agree
ment which will give a greater stim-
ulus to the rehabilitation of silver,
than the Bland bill? Is it likely, even
if the government advised the Bank of
England to hold portion of its reserve
in silver, the European powers
would be tempted to embark in the
policy of bolstering up silver, or that
the Bank of England would consent thus
to reduce its already too small gold re-
serve, or that such step would pro-
duce the effect which the Bland act
failed to produce? We cannot avoid
being made to serve the turn of po.
litical wire-puller by accepting Presi-
dent Harrison's invitation, but we must
be careful not to 20 beyond the manifest
narrowly defined boundaries of safety"

THE RAUM INQUIRY.

Dudley's Pension Claim Railroaded
Through the Bureau.
WASHINGTON, May 12.-During the
Raum investigation today, Reyburn, a
member of the board, examined the
record in the claim of w. w. Dudley,
and said there did not appear to be any
recent medical evidence on file in the
case upon which the certificate was
issued.
DIR. Ingraham, medical referee OF the
bureau, also examined the record and
said he found insufficient medical evil
dence. He did not think the case took
the usual course through the office. The
claim was allowed during the time
Tanner was commissioner. There was
a slip in the record stating the exact
location of the amputation, and express
ing the opinion that the case came
within the act OF August A, 1886.

Butler OF Iowa charged the Republi-

Reed criticized the Democrats for
making no explanation of the reductions

reductions was brute force, he said. and
that was the only reason therefor.
Pending further action the committee
