THE CITY POSTMASTER.
Many Local Men Aspire to Succeed
Mr., WfIIett

The most active political canvass WASH
ington has seen In a number OF years ia
now being carried on by the friends OF
several gentlemen of more or less local
fame who have announced their desire
to succeed James P. Willett, the present
city postmaster. whose. term, dating four
years from the time of his confrmat tion,
expires on December "A. Mr.. willett will
then have served four years and trIfe
over two months. having been appointed
October II. 1894.
Besides he present postmaster whose
friends state that he desires a reappoint-
ment. there are five others who have
filed their papers. all strongly indorsed,
with the Postoffice Department, from
whence they have gone to the President.
OF these it is said that Louis D. Wine.
of the firm of B. II. Warner & Co., is
perhaps the strongest. Mr.. Wine was the
last man to enter the field having be-
gun mis- canvass less than four months
ago; but his friends are jubllant over his
prospects.
His papers, with strong national as well
as local Endorsement, were placed directly
in the hands Of President Mckinley, and
transmitted from the White House TO the
Postoffice Department Mr.. Wine stated
yesterday that. while hopeful. he was as
much in the dark as to the final outcome
OF the contest as anyone. So far as he
knows, no promises have been made and
no assurances given TO any Of the candi-
dates.
Archibald Greenlees, also prominent in
local business circles, is another candi-
| date whose friends are confident Of mis-
success Dr. George Henderson and F. A
Bradley also have their papers on file at
/ the Postoffice Department and another
candidate who is making q strong can
vass Is Capt. c. c. Anderson. The latter
Is an employe Of the Postoffice Depart
ment, IS a veteran OF the Civil War. and
IS said TO be an important factor in the
race.

secure reappolntment is not known.
| He Is out of the city at present. and his
| friends do not feel at liberty 10 discuss
his plans. although it is positively SEATED
that he Is in the field
There is every prospect Just now. how

sibly not until next year.
Owing to the vitality important matters
which confront the President at this time
| il is felt that he will not be aole 10
! spare the time to the careful considera-
tion Of such an important appointment.
and that Mr. Willett will be allowed to
hold over until national affairs are less
pressing.
The salary Of the city postmaster at
present is 5000 year. and the prosper
that 1t vii be increased next year 10 s.. 60
makes the office all the more alluring.
II Is claimed that, under the rules gov
erning the department, the holder Of the
position is entitled 10 that salary. This.

By his high tariff he has prevented

Chief Murphy said detectives were closely

physical condition required the attend
ance of doctor and a nurse
Douglas was the receiver of the Ber-
gen Land and Improvement Association
of Jersey City. His disappearance from
the steamboat was evidently meant to
indicate that he had committed suicide.
His clothes and money were found in the
state room. The idea of suicide was
secuted however, when it was found that
no one had seen him leave the boat and
that he had purchased a second valise
and a complete change of clothing before
going on board.
