Holmes Conrad, former solicitor gen

ment.
The president sent the following
letter to the attorney general:
Washington, June 22.-Sir: AS you
know, charges in connection with the
postoffice department are now being
investigated by Fourth Assistant Post
master General BristOw, who has had
placed at his disposal by the post
master general every resource of the
department. AS the result of this in
vestigation a number of indictments
have been returned and it is probable
that other indictments will hereafter
be asked for. There can be no
greater offense against the govern
ment than breach of trust on the
part of a public official or the dis
honest management of his office, and
of course every effort must be ex-
erted to bring such offenders TO
punishment by the utmost rigOr Of the
law. The district attorney of the
District of Columbia has faithfully
and ZealOuSly seconded the enOrLS OF
the postoffce department in this
matter, but the amount of work in
his Office is such as makes it diff
ficult, without neglecting other i'm
portant public duties, to devote ali
the time necessary to the prosecu-
ton of these cases. l suggest, there
fore, if you cannot detail some one Of
your present staff, that you appoint
special assistants in these postofiice
cases, not only to take up the cases
in which indictments have been found
but to examine into all charges that
have been made against officials in
the postal service, with the view to
the removal and prosecution of all
guilty men in service or out where
the cases are not barred by the
statute of limitations"

MULvIHILL IS MERRY.

Carried Bridgeport by Surprising Ma
 1ority Yesterday.
 Bridgeport, Nov {. The cyclone, po- litically, that hit this town yesterday is about the most wonderful thing that folks who are interested in elections can recall to mind. 1t is, as opinions are advanced, not only surprise, but a sumner. Bridgeport has had more political excitement for the past two weeks than will be witnessed for many years, and owing to the excitement, with confidence so strong on both sides, the majority of guesses were that the result would be close
 The entire democratic ticket and ten aldermen out of twelve were swept into office by this cyclone or whatever you want to call it. Mayor Mulvihill's majority is 2, 1892, City Clerk Bucking- ham leads the ticket with a majority of 2,535. Tax Collector Donnelly has 1,715, and William Schreiber 1,7O7. It certainly was 8 democratic year, even though outwardly the signs were fig- ured as otherwise. For instance there was the weather. Whoever saw a nicer day? was the question that went about yesterday morning, and accord ing to tradition. nice day was sup posed to assure a republican victory. After this the tradition needs revising.
 Both parties worked well. The vote was surprisingly large and 1t came in ruShes. Between t and z a. m., in every district, there was a rush to vote After o'clock it was quiet for several hours and then another rush was ex- perienced. In the democratic districts the vote did not come in so rapidly as the republican districts until in the af- ternoon. At noon there was another rush. Several of the factories sus- pended operations at 4 o'clock to give the men an opportunity to vote.
 The bitterness which was claimed to exist during the campaign did not show itself at the polls. Workers fra ternized together when business was dull and there was good nature. On the east side the contest was, perhaps, more exciting. In each of the districts the workers hustled from early to late. The mayor voted early in his district, the tenth, and Attorney Hill voted in the early morning at his polling place. No demonstrations were made.
 The text book vote was strong. S. 576 in favor and only 1,O52 opposed. Many refrained from voting on the question, some fearing that they would mix their ballots. Workers for the so- cia1ist ticket were in each district and they were soliciting voters to act upon this question. Under the ballot law they did not have a representation in the polling places but a representative was at each district handing out tick cts.

CHARTERS WINS AGAIN.
Reelected Mayor of Ansonia by Forty
 Majority.

Ansonia, Nov 4.--Mayor Stephen Charters received a personal endorse ment at the hands of the voters of this city, at the biennial election yes- terday, winning by margin of 40 votes, as the labor union candidate. over William H. Joy. the republican candidate. The total poll for mayor was 2,370, while two years ago 1t was 2.S60, and MT Charters carried the city then by AIS on party lines. Besides Mayor Charters, the democrats, elect ed only Henry Jorday for treasurer, and six aldermen, all others being re- publicans The net result is that the republicans control the board of al- dermen. It is coincidence that MT Jordan is elected treasurer by exact. ly the same majority as the mayor. while the republicans carried their successful candidates into office by majorities ranging from 20 to 237. Fifteen aldermen are republicans. Analysis of the vote shows that May. or Charters ran TT ahead of his nor maj party vote, and MT Joy ran S5 behind his.
 For city clerk A. P. Kirkham. re- publican. was reelected by 227 votes. The poll was the largest in the city's history.
