WAS TWICE INVESTIGATED
DIFFERENT REPORTS ON THE NEW
JERSEY POST OFFICE.
Civil Service Commission Findings
COntradicted by Those of De-
partment inspectors.

The case Of the assistant postmaster and
the superintendent of carriers at Jersey
City, charged by the National Civil Service
League with enforcing political assess
mentS. Is unique one, in that 1t was in
vesugated by two sets of government ex-
aminers and that two directly antagonistic
verdicts were rendered.
The general charge against Assistant
Postmaster Woolley of Jersey City was
that he intimidated employees Of his office
to obtain political contributions, and prac-
tically the same charge was made against
the superintendent of carriers. These
charges were investigated by an examiner
of the civil service commission, which COM
mission asked the Postmaster General to
remove the officials complained of, and
also addressed a communication to the
Attorney General, asking him to institute
criminal proceedings against them.
investigation by Inspectors.
The Post Office Department then made a
thorough examination into it's affairs of
the Jersey City post Office. detailing three
of its best inspectors. especially skilled in
such work for that duty. These inspectors
examined, under oath, sixty witnesses,
whereas the examiner of the civil service
commission had examined but twenty wit
nesses, who were not under oath because
OF lack of power to swear them.
These inspectors after carefully looking
into the case, reported that the charges
against the officials of the post Office were
not sustained. It was stated that hearsay
evidence had been accepted in the investi-
cation made by the civil service commits
sion, and that the testimony was largely
given by disgruntled ex-employes of the
Jersey City post Office.
The facts as obtained by the investiga-
tion of the department were communicated
t' the civil service commission.
The Postmaster Generals Comment.
In informing the commission in regard to
the investigation made by the Post Office
Department the Postmaster General stated
In part as follows:
Even those who appear to be the most
willing witnesses admit that there was no
suggestion Of the kind from Mr.. Woolley
or from any cne In authority. They make
such general statements as That it was
understood in a general way that 1t would
be well to make contributions or That 1t
was customary to contribute
The custom of political contributions by
carriers in this office did not originate un-
der the administration Of the present post
master, but was in vogue in that office
long before Mr.. Wanser's appointment. Re-
peated questioning failed to elicit from any
or the numerous witnesses examined that
any official in the Office directly or indi-
rectly. ever suggested or intimated the ad-
visibility Of political contribution The
absence OF proof Of any suggestion in an
office with about 100 carriers would seem
to establish pretty clearly that the prac-
tice of official solicitation does not pre-

BOLD ROBBERY.
Alleged Theft of Diamonds Said to be
Worth $1,7OO.

Alleged Theft of Diamonds Said to be
Worth $1,7OO.
One of the boldest robberies that has
been committed in this city during recent
years took place in the Division this af-
ternoon. Diamond jewelry said to be worth
about 81, 100 and $87 in cash were taken
from a bureau drawer in the room of
woman known as Hazel Saunders. Kate
Anderson conducts the house. The thief,
described to be man about fifty years
DID, was pursued through the White Lot
by a colored messenger boy, but he man
aged to get out of the boys sight and es-
capped.
The female inmates of the house were
at breakfast when the robbery occurred.
and the front door was open for ventilating
purposes. On this account the thief ex-
perienced no trouble in effecting an en-
trance, and the man went directly to the
room of the Saunders woman. where the
jewelry was deposited. He evidently knew
where it was kept N the drawer:
1t Is alleged there were two sunburst pins
Several solitaire diamond rings. an opal
ring, worth $1S5, and several stick pins
were among the articles taken. A large
chisel and double skeleton key, used by
the robber. were left in the room. These
were turned over to Detectives Helan and
Boyd, who were detailed to investigate the
case as soon as Capt. Boardman was in
formed that the robbery had been COM
mitted.
The detectives escorted two Of the wO-
men of the house to headquarters, where
they related the story of the theft to Capt.
Boardman and gave him a complete de-
scription of the property and the thief.
Capt. Boardman telephoned the mans de-
scrlption to the different precincts and di-
rected the officers to be on the lookout for
him. Several additional detectives were
put on the case and every effort Is being
made to capture the man.

Exceptionally Good Buying of Rail-

STEEL ISSUES WERE NEGLECTED
Demand for the Pacific Stocks
Was the Feature.
GENERAL MARKET REPORTS
pecial Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, August 13.-Higher prices
In the London market and an improved de-
mand on this side combined In producing
a substantial rally in the railway list this
morning. The banking interests showed
some signs of increasing activity and tho
buying was better in character in conse-
quence. The news from the strike districts
was mixed, but on the whole was favora-
BILE to the companies.
The steel stocks were strong but were
not the features they had been on previous
days. The strength Of the general market
minimized the effort to hold the steel
prices steady. Wall street is discounting
the ending Of the strike in favor Of the
company. The lack Of unanimous indorse-
ment of President Shaffer's position by his
associates Is taken to indicate a modifica-
tion Of the original attempt at a general
strike
Steel officials are inclined to the view
that the strikers will shortly recognize the
loss OF the strike and make some over
lures for settlement.
Today's rally in the market indicates that
the crop news and the strike scare are
losing their influence as speculative argu-
ments. Something new must be discovered
II the depressing party wants to resume its
reactionary movements.
Good earnings are coming In from nearly
all sources, and some new developments in
the community Of ownership scheme are
expected. The public must be given some
inducements to buy, and the larger inter-
ests thoroughly appreciate this fact. An
advancing market alone can attract the
new demand. and the accumulation going
on In certain quarters indicates a prepara-
tion for such an attraction.

amounts OF the stock changed hands at ad-
vancfng prices. All of the hard coal shares
and the eastern trunk lines came in for a
sympathetic movement. Erie and Reading
gave evidence of an inside demand.
All OF the Vanderbilt group showed
strength, and the buying was called good.
Big Four was in demand under further
predictions Of guaranteed dividend or
The Montreal buying of Canadian Pa
cifc was most effective. the stock making
a new high record.
Perhaps the most significant movement
of the day was the buying of Union and
Southern Pacific These issues were taken
in round amounts by strong interests and
had the added advantage Of good specula-
tive demand. The last-named stock Is be-
ing bought by pool, which Is headed by
one Of the best known traders In the street
The prospects for a dividend some time
before November, when the first coupon on
the Union Pacific collateral trust bonds
falls due, are being used to explain the ad-
vance. Sugar was under pressure in spite
OF the fact that the president OF the COM
pany was reported to be in better health,
and the absence of new competition stories.
The Industrial list a whole was strong,
but interest in it was secondary merely.
The rally during the day was one of the
best since the Inauguration OF the labor
troubles.

tion in this city of building for the Chi
nese legation that it is expected the affair
can be closed up in the course Of a few
days. The contract for the land has not
been signed as yet, but there is a possibili-
ty that the proposed building may be To-
Gated on one of three sites. all in the
northwest. The squares that are under
consideration are: One on 10th street just

ground just north of the Dean place on
Washington Heights.

estate brokers'. It is proposed by this
company to erect building for the Chi
nese government according to plans pre-
pared by Waddy B: Wood, architect, Of

vanced to give an idea of the extent and
character Of the proposed structure. 1t is
to have frontage of 100 feet, will contain
forty rooms. and will be one of the large
residences Of the city.
In spite of the unusual width, the lot
will have such a broad frontage as to per-

contract. the house Is to be ready for oc-
cupancy by June Of next year.
