A Well Heads at the Post Ofice De-
partment for a Brief Time Today.
The Post Office Department yielded genuine
sensation today. 1t was all due to the order
issued by the Postmaster General to the chief
Of the appointment division OF the fourth
assistants Office directing him to give out no
information in regard to the appoint
ments of postmasters Of the fourth class.
Heretofore complete lists of the changes
made daily have been furnished to the
public, or what is the same thing, the press,
and the sudden change in what has been the
custom for years naturally excited remark. II
was learned on inquiry that the order had been
issued because OF misstatements and exaggera-
tions that it was alleged had been made in the
newspapers relative to the changes. In fact
it was said that the President Was begin
ming to dislike seeing SO much in the
public prints relative to "cutting off heads, -
1.-THE guillotine" and other terms more or less
sportive that have been used to characterize
the work of Mr.. Maxwell. the fourth assistant.
So it was resolved to cut off the source of in
formation. Later in the day, however, Mr..
Bissell decided not to apply the order 10 the
list Of appointments made TODAY, and these
were given out 1t is probable that this quasi
suspension of the order will be continued and
that the list will be given out usual

the back with a stocking and attached by
string from the stocking TO one of the rings.

frst sympathized with his wife and upheld her.
