"The great bulk Of the Irregularities

| the result OF the government taking
over the postal service Of Porto Rico.
| Mr.. Tnlloch refers TO troubles caused
| by the payment Of the Porto Rican ac-

of letter-boX schemes, etc. but there Is

"rhe bulk of the statement, however,
consists OF an airing of his own griev-
ances and Of comments on his own re-
moyaL He gives letters bearing on his
removal, extracts from newspapers pub
lished in various parts OF the country,
and deals in glitterng generalities In
crticislng former Postmaster-Ge General
Smith. He refers TO vouchers and pay
ments Of certain people which he claims
10 have been Illegal, and makes a pretty
severe attack upon the comptroller Of
the treasury. He makes some reference
10 the alleged smothering of the exam
ination Of accounts of the local post
office, but offers no new evidence or
documents TO substantate his allega-
tons. merely referring TO certain peo-
pie, certain vouchers and certain ao-
counts.
There are no particularly new points
except In explanation Of what he here
tofore has said in general way l am
greatly disappointed that the document
will not be of any great help 20 US. Mr..
Tull0ch encloses a newspaper clipping

SOME THINGS DO LOOK WRONG.
There are some things that do, Of
course. on their face, LOOK TO be wrong,
and that need explanation All Of the
charges refer TO matters pertaining 10
former Postmaster Smiths administra-
ton. II Is to be presumed that the
comptroller Of the treasury and the
auditor OF the treasury and the post
master OF Washington will be able 10
throw some light on these matters.
The bulk Of the offenses alleged is
that vouchers were charged 10 the
wrong accounts. All OF the items which
were not allowed by the comptroller
We're finally audited, except less than
500. We VIII look into the records Of
these matters, Of course"

A PLAIN STATEMENT.

Bernard Scully wrote the announce
ment of Bert Lambertson's marriage
and signed his name to it, by request
of the Evening News correspondent,
who questioned him SO rigidly at the
time, that Mrs. Hunt, in whose store
the writing was done, demonstrated
at the time and said afterwards, that
if the correspondent questioned the
people so and was so particular, they
wouldn Z give her any news.
Saturday evening Mr. Lambertson
wished the article contradicted, but
did not care to have Scully's name
published. Lambertson was taken
into Mrs. Hunts store and given par
ticulars and was told that Scully's
name would be published, as the cor
respondent WASH t paid to report false
hoods for the News, and if those who
did such things were shielded in that
way they might try it again, but that
the publishing of their names might
end it. AS both parties appeared to
be telling the truth, we will leave it
to them to settle it between them
selves. The marriage of Mr.. Bert
Lambertson had been reported all
over the borough before the item was
published.
We hold the item written and signed
by Bernard Scully and if there is any
thing wrong about it he is RESPONSE
Bile, as he requested the correspondent
ito publish it and repeatedly stated in
answer to her inquiries that he was
telling the truth, or rather, that the
statement was true. If it was joke
on Mr.. Lambertson, as he supposed it
to be, when told who had given the
item, how about the young lady, will
she, too, be satisfied to consider it a
joke?
