Bv r. M. Iarner.

Washington. May 13.-President
Roosevelt is given credit for the final
removal of Mr. Machen, superintend-
ent of the Rural Free Delivery Postal
Service. The suspension of Machen
promises to open up a new field of dis
covery in the postal scandal. While
Machen remained in office, the lips of
many persons were sealed because they
did not know how far his political and
official influence extended.
Mr.. Machen is a natural born politi-
clan, as we'll as a diplomat. He enter
ed the postal service as a Democrat,
and being gifted with remarkable tact,
he at once ingratiated himself in the
estimation of both Democrats and Re-
publicans in Congress alike. When the
administration changed from Demo-
cratic to Republican, Mr.. Machen, not
only held fast his Democratic sup
porters, but he soon had upon his staff
many of the most influential members
of the Republican organization, in and
out of Congress. No favor that q Re-
publican or Democrat, of power and
influence, might ask of Mr.. Machen
was too great for him to undertake to
grant. In this way, he so entrenched
himself that many persons doubted
whether the combined efforts of POST
master General Payne, Assistant POST
master General Wynne, and Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General Bristow
could dislodGe him.
The friends of Mr.. Machen were so
strong and powerful that they even
talked of driving Postmaster General
Payne out of the cabinet, and de-
handing the summary removal of both
Wynne and Bristow in order to save
Machen. Now that Machen is out of
the postal service, perhaps never to
return. the investiga tors of the postal
scandal will have less difficulty in Sc
curing evidence bearing upon the loose
and eXtraVagant administration of the
rural free delivery service.

STRIKERS BACK AT WORK.

Pending the Arbitration of Their
Grievances.
New York, May depending the ar
bitration of their grievances, most OF
the 5000 strikers returned to work on
the subway to-day. Twelve hundred
members of one union of the rock men
and eXcavators refused to obey the In
structions of their president to return
to work. Their reason was that if they
did so they would be assessed for the
support of other members of their un-
ion, who are on a strike from various
buildings.
When the time limit set by the con-
tractors for the strikers to return tC
work on the subway had expired the
striking workmen had not returned tC
their former positions on a portion OF
the subway. Accordingly 225 men, in
Guiding a number of negroes, were put
to work, the striking workmen, who
were standing by, making no effort &c
prevent the non-union men from TAX
ing their places.
Policemen stood all along the sub
way route in readiness for any trouble
but none occurred.

Latimer'S Deal in Copper Stock

ern Senator who is said to have ac-
quired large wealth recently by judi
cious purchases in the stock market.
Senator Latimer, the newly elected
Senator from South Carolina, openly
admits to having cleared something like
100000 by timely investment in copper
mining stocks. The junior Senator from
South Carolina, it appears, was let in
on the ground floor on an investment
in Mexican copper, and he was gener-
GUS enough to let many of his personal
friends in on what was then consid-
cred an exceedingly good thing
Latimer Bought Their stock.
During his campaign for the sena-
torShip the value of the copper stock
in which he was interested took de-
cided slump Some of his friends who
were embarrassed by the falling off in
the valuation of the stock made issue
with their senatorial advisor during his
campaign. With commendable fairness
and a desire to do the right thing
by those who had been persuaded to
invest, Senator Latimer announced
from the stump that he would redeem
every dollars worth of stock bought
upon his advice at, the price originally
paid for it.
A consultation between Senator Lati-
mer and the promoters of the copper
company is said to have made good
the declaration made by Senator Lati-
mer to his friends in South Carolina,
who had bought stock at a higher rate
than it's then market value Cabinet
officers and many prominent officials
in Washington and elsewhere invested
in the stock upon the recommendation
and advice of Senator Latimer. 1t is
understood that although the company
bore the greater part of the burden in
redeeming the stock sold in South Car
DINA, Senator Latimer's original profit
on the investment was considerably
reduced in quieting down some of the
investors who repented having bought
the stock at 35 and 40, after it fell down
to 20 and "a.
The stock referred to is expected to
take an upward turn very soon, and
SeKator Latimer stands to realize a
handsome return upon his original in
Vestment.
Senator Latimer hopes to be assigned
to the Committee on the District of
Columbia, one of the most sought after
committees of the Senate, and also to
the Committee on Agriculture when
the committees are reorganized at the
next session of Congress.
