torney general:
white House, Washington. d. c.. June
22. 1908.
"Sir--As you know the charges in con-
nection with the postoffice department are
being investigated by Fourth Assistant
Postmaster General Bristow. who has

Of MIR. Tyner
LAS a result OF this investigation a num-
Der OF indictments will hereafter be asked
for. There can be no greater orence
against the government than breach Of
trust onthe part of a public official or the
dishonest management of his affairs and
OF course every effort must be exerted 10
bring such offenders to punishment by the
utmost rigor Of the law.
The district attorneys office Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia has faithfully and zeal
ously seconded the efforts OF the postof-
flee department in this matter but the
amount OF work in the office is such as
10 make 1t difficult without neglecting
other important public duties, to devote
all the time necessary to the prosecution
of these cases suggest, therefore, that
IL you cannot detail some OF your pres
ent staff, you appoint special assistants
In these postoffice cases. not only to take
up the cases I'm which indictments have
been found or hereafter may be found,
but to examine into all charges that have
been made against officials in the postal
service. with view TO the removal and
prosecution OF all guilty men In the SER
vice and the prosecution OF guilty men
whether in the service or not. where the
cases are not barred by the statute OF
limitations.
Sincerely yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Prizes INTO ALL MARKETS.
The Tobacco Trust is anxious to Know Ware.
housemen's Sales.

1t appears that the American Tobacco
Company is demanding of the warehouse
men on all the tobacco markets that they
tell the representatives of the trust their
sales each day. The demand has been
made in Raleigh but as yet no conclusion
has been reached. 1t is learned that
from a number of markets these reports
are being received by the American To-
bacco Company's offices in Durham, and
that to these headquarters the reports
are to be sent every day.
An independent buyer on the Raleigh
market said yesterday that while he was
bidding on the market the price went up
He says that all that is needed to push
up the price is strong competition, and
ne believes that $4,000 put behind the
market here now would mean 100000 in
value to the farmers. He says also that
he believes the American Tobacco Com
pany is buying to cut down the price of
the leaf so as to make money enough to
pay up on its heavily watered stock,
and that it is not near so strong as it
would have people to believe.

chased an interest in the firm OF Pea

In politics Colonel Taylor was an Re-
publican, and when younger took active
interest in public affairs. though he
never ran for office. He never connected
himself with any church, but called him
self a Catholic. He was an omniverous
reader until his eyes failed him, reading
with particular pleasure of things rare
and curious which his retentive memory
retained. He was we'll posted upon many
topics and talked with marked individu
atty upon whatever subject that interest
ed him. The correct pronunciation of
words was his hobby and he would inter.
rupt his best friend to correct his pro-
nunciatiOn. He had a rare fund of lnfor-

conditions far away. He read with
avidity everything about the Philippines,
about Hawaii: took deep interest in all
new discoveries in science; and was alb
sorbed in everything new and curious
He did not have many friends, but he
had a number who delighted in his origi-

like anybody else in the world and yisi

of which he had thought most. His
mind seemed to be purely speculative and
he never turned any of his reading into
practical channels.
Colonel Taylor was often wont to write
poetry and called himself, 'the bard of

fused to accept the testimony OF five Ital-
ians On the latter insisting three were
arrested and thrown into jail. Two OF
them attempted to escape and were fired
upon, one being killed. The Venezuelln
government does not Geny this occurrence,
but is doing nothing to prevent repeu-
tions.
A gibbet was erected in a street of Gu
mana yesterday, on which was hung an
effigy representing foreigner, and the
populace beat the dummy with sticks
amid shouts of Death to the foreigners.
Two leading traders, NJ PalazZf,
Frenchman, and Herr Sprcl, German.

by order of Presdcn5 Castro, for refus-
ing to pay the taxes which had already
been collected by the revolutionists, dur
ing the latter's occupation OF the city.

the same charge. The French and Ger
man ministers protested and obtained the
immediate release of their countrymen.
