RATHBoNE TO BE SUSPENDED.
He is Held Responsible for Loose
Business Methods.

Washington, May 1S-The Post to-mor-
row will say:
An order WILDE issued to-day, relieving
from duty Mr. E. G. Rathbone, director
general of posts in Cuba, under whose
administration the frauds recently dis
closed have occurred He is held respon-
sible for extravaganza in the department
and for the loose business methods in
the conduct of postal affairs on the ISL
and, resulting in the embezzlement of
funds estimated at 100000
He is moi charged with, or suspected of
any completely in these frauds, but the
Postmaster General and Secretary of
War are convinced that his unfitness for
the highly responsible position has been
clearly established.
The order relieving him may take the
form of suspension but it is the under
standing that he will have no further
connection with the Cuban government.
A reorganization of the department of
posts will follow upon a new basis, that,
ii is believed, will preclude the possibility
of similar frauds in the future.
The pending investigation, though in
spectors are to be used, is under the war
department.
