ing, Washington. ,.4e N.~a
Washington, Oct. 9.-Thezresigna-
ton Of Captain Castle is directly due
to the report Of Messrs: Bonaparfe and
Conrad on the Tulloch charges. No
reflection is made upon CAPTAIN cas-.
ties integrity, but twas thought best,
In view of conditions existing in the
postoffice department and the state of
the public mind, that his long contenl-
plated purpose of resigning should be
carried out. ss.s
postal investigation undertaken by
Bonaparte and Conrad as to the re-
spons1bil1ty of the treasury depart
ment thru it's auditing and controllers,
bureaus for improper vouchers. Their
attitude seems to be that the auditor
should be absolutely assured of the
Integrity Of the voucher, while the
treasury view is that the primary re-
sponsib1lity must be taken by the de-
partment expanding the money, the
postoffice department in this case,
and that each coordinate department
must be credited with integrity Of pur-
pose and administrations. Il
There are a few accounts which
have been passed by,:Auditor Castle in
postal affairs which the investigation
showed were improper and the ques-
ton is whether the auditor could rea-
sonably be expected to detect the inn
propriety. Such amounts are Very
small in the aggregate Of business
transacted, but still sufficiently notice.
able in the critical state of the public
mind to make the department willing
that there should be a change. On
Since the president returned from
Oyster, Bay he has given careful con-
sideration to the Bonaparte report and
IN the past few days there have been
several conferences between him and
Secretary Shaw and Postmaster Cen
|eral Payne. The report severely ar
raigns all accounting officers. incl,1d-
ing Controller Tracewell and former
Postmasters General Smith and
Perry S. Heath, for having passed the
accounts mentioned in the Tullocl1
charges.
AS a consequence quiet tin was
passed along to Captain Castle that
as he had expressed his Intention to
resign some time ago the resignation
would be accepted now If rendered. s
Captain Castle said to-day that he
had no knowledge of the contents Sc
the Bonaparte report. IF there are
reflections upon him in that report.
he hoped he would have an. oppor-s
tunity to reply. He would rather take
them up as q private citizen, assther
he could speak more clearly than If,
he were in the attitude Of fighting
to retain his place. Captain Castle

ing devices it was stated that nearly
$f,000,0 900 would be saved in fuel on
the lines west Of Albuquerque, a ter.
ritory in which coal is exceedingly
scarce. It Is now believed that the
company will make use Of oil as fuel
on Its lines east Of Albuquerque as
far as Kansas City. 1t is not improb.
able that in the course Of time the To-
comotiyes on all the lines OF the sys-
TEN will be equipped with oil burn
ers. While the work of r~emodeling
is decidedly costly, the saving in fuel
more than offsets the outlay.

1t was announced a few days ago,
