Fifteen new indictments were
brought in by the grand jury Of the
supreme court for the District OF Co.
lumbia last week as the final result OF
the investigation in the postof6ce de.
Dartment, Several Of these findings
were against persons who already have
been indicted.
The new indictments involve James

and his assistant, Harrison j. Barret;

son Of James T.; Harry G. Hallenbeck,
president and general manager OF the
Wynkoop, Hallenbeok and Crawford
company Of New York, the firm
which for several years supplied the
department with its money order
blanks, and William D. Doremus, who
is connected with a house which has
been supplying a stamp cancelling
machine to the department.. There
were additional indictments against
August W. Machen, former superin-
tendent Of free delivery: George W.
Beavers, former chief of the salary
and allowance division: W. Scott
Towers, who was In charge Of SUBJ
station Of the Washington city post
office, and State Senator George A..
Green, OF New York. In some cases
there we're several indictments against
one person:
TIMER AND BARRET INDICTMENTS.
Concerning the indictments against
Tyner and RaFret, the following state
meDt was made by the postohdce de-
partment:
Three indictments charge Tyner
and Barrett with conspiracy and two
additional indictments charge Barret
with agreeing, while still in Office, to
receive fees for services rendered or to
be rendered in case pending before
bim as an officer. All the indictments
are founded upon the treatment by
Tyner and Barrett Of the business of
the so-called bond investment COM
panies.
The indictments cite specific cases
in which Barret, while still in Office,
sought OF agreed to receive fees, or in
which, after, Rarret retired, Tyner
referred clients to him and approved
new contracts ct bis suggestion with
out even reading them oYeI."
The principal charge against Tyner
and Barrett is that Of misconduct in
office, in obstructing and preventing
the due and orderly administration of
the law.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1903-10-14
CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD.

The charge against Hallenbeck and
the Metcalfs is that Of conspiracy to
defraud the United States. The COM
pany Of which Hallenbeck is the head,
had a contract with the United States
to furnish the postal service with its
money order blanks.
Norman Metcalf was employed as a
clerk in the office Of the Wynkoop,
Hallenbeck s. Crawford Co., at a
salary of $50 week. While it is not
so stated in the Indictment it is
asserted by the postot1ce authorities
that the government lost at least
$4,000 ip one year through their
transactions. 1t is also asserted that
there was an agreement whereby the
contracting company paid young Met
calf l lie cents for each book Of forms
shipped and it is stated that ship
ments for one year reached as high as
5000 books. The allegation is made
that the older Metcalf >ecured the
payment for inferior work supplied by
the contractors.

P1LING CHEM UPON MAcHEN.

The new charge against Machen is
that Of accepting a bribe in connec.
tion with the delivery of badges
worn by rural free delivery carriers,
which we're made by Charles j..
Heller, Of Philadelphia. There are
two new indictments against Beavers,
one of them charging him with ac-
cepting S25 each on a number Of book
typewritting machines sold to the
government by Scott Towers. and the
other alleging misconduct in the
purchase OF stamp cancelling machines
from w. D. Doremus. Towers is also
indicted in connection with the trans
action with Beavers on the charge Of
agreeing to pay Beavers S25 on each
machine. Doremus is indicted for de-
frauding the government in the sale
Of his cancelling machines.
After the indictments were brought
in Harrison J. Barret came into court
accompanied by his attorney, A S.
Worthington, who appeared for both
Barret and Tyner. Mr.. Worthington
said that bis clients were prepared to
give bond, and after statement OF
the case by Assistant, District At
torney Taggart, bond was fixed for
Barret in the sum OF 100000, and for
Tyner in the sum OF $4,000.
THEY GIVE BOND.
Mr.. Tyner was not in court, and 1t
was stated that be vas too i'll to ap-
pear. His bond was therefore perfect
ed at his home in that city. The
elder Metcalf was also in court and
his bond was fixed at $4,000. The
court stated that similar bond would
be required Of Norman Metcalf and
OF Hallenbeck. They were represent
ed by Attorney S. W. Hayden.
The present understa nding Is that
this series Of indictments is the last
which there will be any present effort
to secure, and the poStotfice authorl-
ties generally considered that the de-
partmental investigation is at an end.
Mr. Tyner has been connected with
the postal service in many Important
capacities for years. He is from In
diana. He was postmaster general
from July -, 1876, to March y, 1877,
and subsequently, held The offices OF
first assistant attorney general, from
which latter Office be was dismissed
by Postmaster General Payne last
spring following Mrs. Tyner's aDstrac-
tion Of papers from the department

years old, and in grave physical condi-
Jion, suffering from severe case OF
