Mr. William Henry Mann, of this CITY
Assistant United States District Attor-

received this afternoon the following
telegram from Attorney C eneral Har-
mon:
Washington, ID. c., Oct. %, 1896.
Mann, Assistant United states Attor.
ney, Petersburg, Va:
Another Assistant Just appointed
Your term will end o-day"
LENGTHY CORRESPONDENCE
This telegram Is the result of a. lengthy
correspondence which has been carried
Oh between MIR. Mann ana the Attorney
General for some days. Mr.. VIM. H.
White, of Norfolk, who was appointed
10 succeed Major Il. r. I,assiter as
United States Attorney for this district
mas the liberty to suggest the name of
his assistant
Mr. Mann was assistant to MIR. Lassi-
ter District Attorney, recently removed
praGIicaiiy because he was chairman of
the Democratic District Committee. Mr.
Lassiter. upon taking onlc, ns District
Attorney, recommended some cne else
as his assistant, but Mr.. Mann was n)-
pointed at the suggestion OF Mr. Cleye-
iand ana reappointed in June. 1896, un-
der the new law, as the request of Mr..
Lassiter. Upon the appoint.aent of Mr..
hlte' Mr.: Lassiter's succ sssor, Mr.
Mann applied to be continued i'm his
position. stating In his Letter to the At
General that he wasnow and had
always been consistent Democrat. and
Whlle he had taken no specially active
part In the pending campaign, ne was n
supporter OF Mr.. Bryan. AMI should cast
his vote for the nominees of the Demo-
cratic National convention.
The Attorney-General, in response 70
this letter, stated that 1t was the policy
or the department to allow The DistrIc.
Attorneys to select their own assistants.
but added:
He Mr. White) has not yet ind,-
Gated any choice. You are entirely right
IN the conclusion which you say You
nave drawn from my correspondence
with Mr. Lassiter relating to his res
igiation, that this department makes no
attempt To interfere with the political
opinions or Affiliations OF any of its
officers; so that the question of your re-
teniion In your present position will be
decided. so far as l am concerned, en-
tirely upon other than political consid-
eratIons."
MI. Mann then wrote to the Attorney
General calling attention to the fact that
the rule allowing District Attorneys to
appoint their own assistants had been
twice violated in this district, and he
received the above telegram.
