TENURE OF PosTMASTERs,
Removals Will Not Be Made Excep'

An official statement of the new policy
that hereafter will govern the tenure OF
fourth class postmasters has been made by
Post master General Payne. as follows:
The policy Of the administra ton is not to
make removals OF fourth class postmasters
without cause. The removal of an officer
- a proposition entirely different from the
naming of a successor at the expiration OF
q postmaster's commission. 1t is, there
fore desired that removals be not made ex-
cept for some good reason which affects the
service. or at the request Of q senator or
repre- ntative indorsing the petition for
such a change made by patrons Of the Office
In question. In some sections Of the coun-
try. notably in the south. not represented
by republican representatives In Congress,
these demands for changes in fourth-class
post offices are made not for the good Of
the service nor for any proper purpose, but
to subserve the interests of rival factions
The administration does not believe that
the Offices Of the government should be
used to subserve the interests OF any petty
faction IN states where there is hardly a
semblance of organization In the party To
prevent this abuse 1t Is necessary to dis
courage these arbitrary removals. No or
der on this subject, however, has been is

Senator Daniel Improved.

Senator Daniel, who has been Ill at his
home in Lynchburg. Va, has greatly i'm
proved, and it is thought he will be able
to leave his home in a short time. Mr..
Daniels duties in connection with the work
Of the constit utionai convention at Rich
mond were very arduous and three months
ago he suffered with an attack of nervous
prostration. AS soon as he Is able to re-
sumo his work he will return to Richmond
and take part In the solution Of the ques-
tions that have for SO long been before the
convention. He has not been here during
the present session Of Congress, and it is
not likely that he will be at liberty to re-
turn here for about month.

On December Il, last, the proprie

the following letter among their mail:
They had no correspondence on the

testimonial of this great medicine that
was ever printed, it came to them un-
solicited and unsought The proprie-
tors of Paine's Celery Compound have
never found it necessary to nanufac-

never found it necessary by any trick
OF advertising to promote mythical
men in far off places to positions
in legislatures or Offices that never

the coal strike commission was taken
up ny the mineworkers presenting
their side OF the controversy with C.

gions. The miners placed witnesses
on the stand to show that the company
refused to employ them because they
belonged to the union, had evicted
them their houses for the same cause:
that the docking system was intoler-
able; that the question Of the men
getting the 10 per cent in wages grant
ed as a result of the 1900 strike is
much in doubt, because the men do
not know how tNe company is figuring
it out, the price in powder enters into
the computation of the increase, and
that the size of the mine cars has in
creased but the wages have not. Two
Hungarian women, one of them the
mother Of the boy who testified on
Saturday, were placed on the stand
and told how the Markle ompan de-
Quoted house rent from the last wages
OF their husbands who were killed in

Sensational Encounter,
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The first move
OF the state department in the trouble
that prevails in the American legation
at Monrovia, Liberia, and which
brought about the shooting Of Thomas
]. R. Faulkner by DR.. J. R. A. Cross
land, the United States minister there,
has been the selection of George w
Ellis of Kansas to succeed Robert
Sturgeon of Kentucky as secretary OF
the legation.
Ellis nomination was sent to the
senate by President Roosevelt last
Thursday. 1t has not been confirmed
He is in Monrovia and is a party to
the difficulties in which the minister
has become involved.
Further investigation of the troubles
between Minister Grassland and
Faulkner developed the existence OF a
sensational condition of things in the
American legation. From all accounts
in the possession of the state depart
ment the legation roof sheltered a
number of warning factions, and for
all the department knows they may be
there yet. All the parties concerned
are American negroes. DR.. Grassland
said in his report Of the
Shooting Of Faulkner
that the latter tried to cut him with a
razor. Faulkner charged the minister
with attempting to assasslnate him.
Secretary Sturgeon, in his account OF
the matter, remarked incidentally that
he was in fear of the minister and kept
a loaded revolver on his desk in the
legation office. The minister, he said,
also kept a revolver in his own desk.
He expressed the opinion that DR..
Grassland was mentally unbalanced.
The charges, counter-charges and ex-
plantations which those concerned have
sent to the state department are so
diverse and contradictory that the de-
partment has been unable to deter
mine how much truth there is in them.
In his official report OF the shooting
Minister Grassland said that the shoot
ing was done in self defense. Faux
ner, according to the minister's ac-
count, cid attack him with a deadly
weapon, to wit, a razor, and did cut
him and cut at him."
1t is charged that the shooting was
the outcome Of too closeattention paid
by the minister to Mrs. Faulkner.
