President Roosevelt Declares Postal
Investigation Will Be Probed.


Washington, D. c., Nov. 3.-Presi--
bottom of affairs with the investiga-
ton in the postoffice department ac--
cording TO a letter that has Just found
its way into print in the Review OF Re-
views, edited by Albert Shaw. The let
ter marked personal" is as follows:
white House, Washington, ID. c.,
Oct. 1903.-My Dear Congressman
The statement alleged to have been
made by Inspector that ] had
ordered his indictment--or that of any
one else--is a lie. just as much lie
as il it had been stated that j had or
dered that any one should not be IN
dicted.
my directions have been explicit,
and are explicit now, that amy one
who is guilty is to be prosecuted with
the utmost rigor of the law. No one
who is not guilty is to be touched. l
do not care alrap for the political or
4 social influence of any human being
| when the question is one of his
| guilt or innocence on such matter
| as corruption i'll the government ser
| vice.
4 Il note what you say that the cir
culation of this report about me may
ALLEVIATE the support of many OF IS
! friends from my administration.
/ Frankly, / feel that any one who would
| believe such a story must be either
lacking in intelligence or else possess
ed of malignant credulity. II anyone
I is to be alienated from me by the fact
that ! direct the prosecution of re-
publican or a democrat, without re-
| gard to his political or social standing,
when it appears he is guilty of gross
wrongdoing. why all ! can say is, let
him be alienated.
