While tie writer was discussing

his OPINION the south will never

of Mr.. r.Mil)ersthese are two things
that preclude the possibility of so
large a crop: Impoverished londs.

AFTER PROMOTION RING.
POSTAL INQUIRT HERE,
Bristosg's Report Sad to Reflect
Seriously on Heath.
rrRoM 1l1r TRIBUNE nuREAu.l

washington. Oct 26.-As result OF the Presi-
DENTS reading OF Mr.. Bristow's report on the
postofice investigation. the Postmaster General
has ordered a select corus OF inspectors to pro-
ceed 10 New-York and make a thorough in
Vestiration CT the New-York postofiice with the
especial object Of ferretinc OFT the promotion
ring instituted by George W. Beavers. and for
connection with which Otto weis was dismissed
from the service on October q.
Il is oaly fair 10 Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Brsstcw 20 say that he has long appre-
cisted the necessity OF further investigation in
the Nen-Yovk office, but IN view Of the Presi-
dents wish that the general report Of the in
vestlgatiun be completed before the meeting Of
Congress. il has been necessary 10 concentrate
the efforts Of The inspectors on the Washington
end OF the scandal. and further attention could
not sooner re devoted 10 the New-York situa-
zion.
The President has not completed the reading
OF the report and il is possible thai he VIII
3nstigate further invest cations IN directions nol
thus far probed when he has carefully consld-
cred its entire contents. Thus far the report
appears 10 ref3ec. grayely on the administrator
OF former First Assistant Postmaster GeneTaI
Heath who signed most Of the contracts on
which recent indictments have been based. II
has been said that The report contains SERIOUS
reflections on former Postmaster General smith
but, as has already been stated in The Tribune.
Mr. Smith was so much IN demand AT the NHlVe
House throughout a large portion Of his admin
astration that il was impossible for him 10 give
personal supervision 10 the details Of his de-
partment even had he not had implicit con-
1idence IN Heath.
II may DE added that even Mir. Bristow does
not make definite statements with regard TO
Heath but The most casual reader cannot help
seeing between the lines The Fourth Assistant s
convictions that The greatest blame Tor much
- the postal scandal rested higher than with
The men who have been indicted. II must be
remembered that the invest igation was hardly
well in hand when the statute OF limitations
covered all Of Heath actions.
The further reading Of the Bristow report by
the President is awaited with considerable in
rerest as II rs regarded as probable that he will
order a further probing Of several ends Of the
investigation which extend beyond the limits set

EARLIEST SNOW FURRY SINCE ".
Icy Wind, Blowing Fifty-two Miles an Hour,
Sweeps the City.

This city has been in the clutch of unusually cold
weather for this time of year for the last two day s.
Just three minutes before p. yesterday the
first snow of the season fell The furry lasted just
five minutes, but the air was thick with hying
flakes while 1t lasted. Except on the asphalt anu
sidewalks the snow lay unmelted for five or ten
minutes. 1t quite thick down the Bay ana
masters and pilots kept their whistles blowing loud
and fast during the squat.
The squat that struck Manhattan, as well as
those that have been reported from up the State
was only a slight local disturbance. In nearly
every case the fall too light to be measured
Yesterdays snow, however, was the earliest OF
any since the establishment Of the local weather
bureau, with the exception of a single year-lSt'-
when fell October Il Last years hrst
snowstorm three days later than this year 8
peculiar thing was that while New. fork was was
being swept by icy wind, ranging in velocity
from forty-1ve to ffty-wo miles an hour. compare
lively low wind velocites We're reported from
other parts of the State. At the time Of the snow
furry the wind blowing nearly fifty miles
hour. In the half hour preceding the theT-
mometer dropped from 20 degrees to 40 degrees
At p. m. it had dropped to 80 degrees and was
still falling.
1t is predicted for the next, twenty-four hours
that the high northwest winds along the New
England Coast will diminish in force. The Middle
Atlantic Coast will receive fresh northwest winds,
but the force Of the storm is broken.

Of the record in the case satisfied him that the
interests Of Justice and morality require that the
defendant he entirely precluded from seeing his

Justice Leventritt said the testimony would have
