NEW YORK INVESTIGATION
Washington. July 1S.-The Comptroller Of
the Treasury has completed the examina-
ton OF the accounts Of Postmaster Van
Colt of New York City. for the quarter
ended December 81. 1902. which he took up Is
the result of the Post-Office investigation,
and has allowed all the accounts except an
item of $3.50 paid to H. c. Graft. for al
legged services as cashier of the New York
Post Office. at the rate of $3.50 year.
Graft was intimately associated with
George II. Beavers. now under indictment
by the Federal Grand Jury at Brooklyn.
The Comptroller holds that Graft was not
employed as cashier at New York. and was
not on duty in that city, but was inspector
in charge of inspecting and adjusting can
ceiling machines and motors at post offices
throughout the country.
The Comptroller says the law distinctly
prohibits the detail Of employees from any
branch of the postal service outside Of
Washington tc duty here. and the payment,
therefore. Is Illegal.
Postmaster Van Colt contends he was
acting under the direction of a superior and
had no control over Mr.. CRAFTS appoint
ment, which was made from Washington,
but the Comptroller says these facts do not
relieve the disbursing officer from respon-
sibility.
