PUSHED BY PRESIDENT.
He Is Putting Nerc Life Into the
Postal Investigation.

Washington Sept 6.-At the request OF Presi-
dent Roosevelt Jerome Bonaparte and Holmes
Conrad, special counsel retained by the Depart
ment OF Justice 10 assist in the prosecution or
the postofice cases. will come here tomorrow
or next day. and VIII not only give their per-
sonal attention from now to the preparation
OF the prosecutions which viii come before the
criminal court in the term beginning In October.
but will be prepared 10 render every possible
assistance to District Attorney Beach IN the
presentation OF the pending cases before the
grand jury. Solicitor General hOyt. of the De-
partment Of Justice. win also return here early
this week. and there is promised active and
sensational week in the postofrce investigation
The most important development looked for by
the postal officials is the indictment of former
official whose malfeasance and subsequent mai
practice is alleged to have resulted in the
swindling of thousands Of people While
strong case has been made out against this
man. and the matter has for some time been be-
fore the grand jury. 1t cannot. OF course. be
positively announced that the indictment Will De
forthcoming. If il is. however. IL is deemed ex-
tremely likely that another and even more
prominent official will also be indicted because
of his connivance at the practices of the one first
referred to. II not for his actual participation IN
them. In this latter an indictment has not
been sought by the pOtofice officials. because OF
the age and delicate health of the man. but the
jury may find it Incompatible with justice to IN
dict the one and not the other
1t has been further stated that the arrest OF
George W. Beavers would take place this week
While this is expected. definite announcement
to that effect IS still premature as the course or
the law officers in tnis case will be governed by
the decision of the grand jury, which cannot be
forecasted with certainty. AS has been already
stated in these dispatches the jury has before II
extensive data and testimony affecting the
Bundy time clock contract, and, IL the situation
permits confident expectation OF Beavers's in
dietment. an order will go Immediately to Dis
trict Attorney Youngs to issue and serve the
necessary warrant
Some further indictments against August w
Machen are expected this week, and there Is a
possibility OF the indictment OF certain persons
connected with the Bundy contract whose names
have not heretofore been mentioned In that
case. The President has expressed a desire for
all the expedition compatible with safety 10 the
governments cases. and the indications are now
that the legal forces are being marshalled for
final and comprehensive brOadside.

Some OF the residents of New-RocheIle have peti-
toned the aldermen TO change the name Of Bryan
ave, in that city, to Edgewood Park. The petition
ers DO not like the Bryan. because. they say.
IL gives the public the impression that they ad
mrers Of the Nebraska politician. wh.e IN reality.
most OF them are Republicans and regard Bryan as
demogogue
Inc street is the home OF NJ. J. Doherty. who runs
Democrats newspaper. and Is brother-in-iaw OF
eA-shayor NJ. j. Dillon Doherty Is ardent ad-
nnlTer OF Bryan, and is opposing the change. He
says IN his paper that the change Is desired only by
people who hate Bryan because he had the courage
10 combat corporate greed" The Mayor and alder
men. who are Republicans, are likely TO make the
desired change at the next meeting. notwithstand-
ing the protest OF Doherty.

spell the name differently. They descended
from Sir John Stewart brother OF James, fifth
High Steward of Scotland, who died in 1885 They
have always insisted retaining the old spelling
of the patronymic, and the late earl even went so
far as to refuse TO subscribe TO a charity which had
printed his patronymic az Stuart.
