Washington. Aug. 2s.-It Is not now pos
sible to foretell just when Fourth Assist
ant Postmaster General Bristow will be
able TO complete his final report on tha
Post-Office investigation. That that report
winSbe made to cover every phase Of the
investigation and placed in the hands of
the Postmaster General seems probable.
There Is little doubt that the report will
be forwarded with an additional report by
Postmaster General Payne to the President.
The President has already declared that

public.
This statement embodies the declarations
of officials Of the Post-Office Department
who are In a position to know just what
is going to be done
Postmaster General Payne to-day secuted
the idea that influence has been brought
to bear on any one in the Post-Office De-
partment for the purpose of preventing
department or the publication of such a
report when it is finally completed.
81 will repeat what have said several
times before" said the Postmaster General
to-day; that no Senator, Representative
or any man in public life. has sought
through me either to curtafl or to pre-
vent this investigation being pursued to
the utmost extent
The Grand Jury held a brief session this
morning. and then adjourned until Thurs
day. Strictly local matters only were con-
sidered to-day, but it is likely that the in
ouIry in connection with the Post-Ofice
Department investigation will be resumed.

The girl screamed. upon which, she says,
