Washington, Oct. 14.-Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Bristow will have his
report on the postal investigation ready to
submit to Postmaster General Payne the
first Of next week, and it will be given to
the public. The president is considering
the advisability of making public the re-
port Of Charles j. Bonaparte and Holmes
Conrad about the same time.
Some members Of the cabinet regret the
appointment of Bonaparte and Conrad to
make an Investigation of any part Of the
administration, because they are liable to
exaggerate conditions. But they admit
that the report must be made public to
protect the president from misrepresenta-
ton. 1t is said that rBonaparte and Con-
rad also made verbal report to the pres
:ident touching some things that are not
a matter of record.

INCREASE IN THE MAILS,
Major Bell Of the City Post Office Finds
It Over SO Per Cent.


Maj. James E. Bell, superintendent of
free delivery Of the city post office, made
an examination of the records of his office
this morning for the purpose Of obtaining
an estimate of the increase of the business
of his office for the year. According to this
statement the business has shown an In
crease Of 90 per cent over last year. A tab
ulated statement, prepared at Maj. Bells
direction for the postmaster, shows that
during the first six days in January, 1902,
there were 794.3O3 pieces Of mail matter
handled by the clerks of the post office
During the first six days Of the present
year there were handled ,223, 1GO pieces of
mall matter, an increase Of 42S. S57, little
more than 80 per cent. The force which
handled this mail has been only slightly in
creased, but is capable Of handling this
with comparative ease. Contrary to the
general belief. the bulk of the mail does not
go to the government departments. At
this time Of the year vast quantities of
mail come in for the departments in the
shape of reports, ETC., from officers of the
departments who may be out of town. How
ever. the business houses in Washington
receive most of the mail, and there is an
enormous private correspondence. The rea-
son for this is that there are many thou
sands of persons living temporarily in this
city who have much mail in the shape of
letters from their home folks home news
great deal of mail during the months
Congress is in session, but the private cor
respondence Of the private citizens exceeds
even this.
