OF POSTAL DEPARTMENT
Minority Report of House Committee
Calls for All the Facts.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March s.
ton bill containing a summary of the
contents of the bill made public at the
time of its completion, was filed in the
house today. The report is accom-
panied by a statement Of the views Of
the minority signed by Representa-
tives Moon, Griggs, Cowherd, Finley
and Kluttz. The conclusions of the
Bristow investigation are made a part
of the minority report and are declared
to be disclosure Of startling corrup-
ton in the division investigated and
method of doing business naturally
conducting to fraud"
The report states that this investi-
cation was confined largely to one di-
vision, and 1t is impossible to say
whether or not the same corrupt meth
DDS obtain in other divisions. The bust
ness intercourse between the divisions
make such a condition possible, it
says, and some system Of checks Is
recommended so that fraud could not
easily be accomplished. The report
concludes with recommendation that
a full and complete investigation OF
the affairs of the postof1ce depart
ment be made by congress.
Justice Pritchard today overruled
the motion Of Samuel A. Croft, one OF
the recently convicted defendants In
the postoffice trial, and sentenced him
to two years in the Moundsville peni-
tertiary and to pay a fine Of $4,000,
sentence to begin On arrival at the
penitentiary Croft Immediately fur
nished bond for $780, 900 pending an ap-
neal.

ergetlc opposition maintained by Mr..
Murphy, it is satisfactory to know that
the sounder judgment of the party
finally conceded the propriety of his

The statement points out that the
question Of the date and place of the
convention was more a matter of the
convenience of the delegates than of
Importance in itself and concludes:

Gov. odelI Speaks Out Loud.
NEW YORK, March 5.-stating that he
was suffering from a severe cold and
sore throat, Gov. B. B. Odell today
abandoned his proposed trip to Washing
ton to consult with President Roosevelt
and returned to Albany, at the same time
putting himself out of line for the chair
manship of the national Republican COM
mittee by declaring that the place had no
attraction for him and that he would not
accept 1t if it were rendered him ION
.
Gov. Odell made an emphatic declara-
ton on the subject of the leadership in
this state, stating that 'there is Moth
ing in the affairs of the party in this
state that I cannot settle myself without
assistance, if 1 wish, and the president
isn't apt to call on me to settle the affairs
of the nation.
II shall not go to Washington for some,
time as I have several engagements up
the state and there is nothing to see
the president about that is urgent or that
will not keep"
viii you accept the national chair
manship?" he was asked.
mo, I never had any such ideas" he
replied, "it is not the kind of work 1 am
looking for and I would not accept if it
were offered to me on silver platter"
WASHINGTON, D. c., March SIT
may be authoritatively stated that Gov.
Odell has not been offered the chairman
ship of the Republican national commit
tee, and there is no probability that he
will be offered that position. 1t was not
one of the objects of Gov. Odell's visit
to Washington to discuss the national
craftsmanship, but New York politics was
to be the subject of consideration. 1t Is
made perfectly clear, however, by the
president himself that he will not be
drawn into any fractional controversy over
the craftsmanship of the New York state
Republican committee or any other dls-
puted question.

BADGERS WIN A. A. u.
MEET AT MILWAUKEE,
Central Association Y. M. C. A. of Chi
cago Second, Milwaukee Third.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, March 5.-The
University of Wisconsin won the hon
ors at the annual indoor championship
meet of Central Association A. A. U.
by q wide margin. Central Association
Y. M. G. A, Chicago, was second, and
Milwaukee A. G. third.
The feature Of the meet was the
breaking of three indoor worlds rec
ords, the seventy -five-yard high hur-
1900 spectators, including a large dele
cation from Chicago, witnessed the
events and cheered their favorites.
In the seventy yard high hurdle
Schulz, of the Milwaukee A. c., jumped
to the front at the crack Of the pistol
led to the finish and surprised every
body by clipping a fifth of a second
off the worlds record, finishing by a
good margin ahead of Bailey, of the
Central Y. NJ. c. A.
The mile run went to Post, of the
University of Wisconsin, by a wide
margin over the rest of the field, and
shaving the indoor record by a fifth
of a. second. Buechler took the lead
early in the race, but at the end of the
first half mile Post went to the front
and remained in the foreground to
the finish with a good lead.
McEachron, of the U. of W., distin-
guished himself by reducing the
worlds indoor record by 2 3-5 seconds
in the two-mile run, leading the field
at the finish by about twelve yards.
McEachron kept close to the field to
the last two laps, when he ran away
from the bunch, winning by wide
margin. Poage, the colored athlete of
the U. of W., had an easy task in the
440yard run.
The short dashes and relay races for
high schools and academies in sepa-
rate classes were exciting and the fin
ishes close, with Chicago carrying off
the honors. The sixteen-pound shot
put went to Miller, of the U. Of W.,
with several feet to spare. The open
relay race went to Wisconsin univer-
sity by about ten yards over Central
Y. M. c. A, Chicago.

HILL
WINS OVER N URPHY
But New York State Committee
Presents no Presidential
Candidate.

ALBANY, N. Y, March 5.-The
select delegates to the national conven-.
ton will be held here Monday, April IL.
This was the unanimous decision of the
Democratic state committee, which met
today. The real result was arrived at
before the committee met, at meeting
between ex-senator Hill and Leader
Murphy, of Tammany. 1t was believed
that some acrimony would result over
the selection of the place and time, 1t
being known that Tammany desired to
have it held in New York, but Senator
Hill acceded to Mr.. Murphy's request
to set the date for the 18th inst, in
stead of the 18th, and Mr.. Murphy,
finding that Mr.. Hill controlled ma
jority of the committee, acquiesced in
the selection of Albany. 1t is under
stood that the Kings county delegation
would vote with the upstate delegates
as against Tammany on this single
proposition had the question been put
to vote, thus giving Mr.. Hill about
thirty votes out of a total Of fifty.
The only test of strength between
the force led by Mr.. Hill and Senator
McCarren, of Brooklyn, and that con-
trolled by Mr.. Murphy came on the
question of seating Committeeman
Fitzpatrick, of the Forty eighth dis
trict, who the Hill forces claimed had
resigned. Upon this matter Kings
county divided, four of the committee
men voting with Tammany and three
with Mr.. Hill, while three upstate
committeeman voted with Tammany.
The Hill forces obtained twenty-six
votes, a bare majority of the commit
tee, while Mr.. Murphy's got twenty
three, there being one vacancy. For
the vacancy in the Forty-eighth dis
trict so declared, Matthew Merzig was
named by the Hill men, and DR.. Auel
by the Murphy men. On this ballot
the Hill forces gained one vote, giving
them twenty-seven in all for Merzig,
who was elected.
Would Not PREJUDICE.
There was an undercurrent of fric-
ton between the two factions during
the discussion, and this found vent
afterwards in a statement prepared at
the request of Mr.. Murphy. This
reads:
"It was hoped that the meeting Of
the state committee would be the oc-
casion for a demonstration of Demo-
cratic harmony, which would be an
earnest intention of the Democrats Of
the state to bury all past factional diff
ferences and present a united front in
the battle of this year, the first Skin
mish of which was won last year in
the city of New York.
1.-THE first indication Of any breach in
the harmony was afforded when the
intimation was conveyed that the state
committee would be asked at its meet
inc to pass resolutions, If not of in
dorsement, at least of confidence, in
one of the prospective presidential
candidates. The leader Of the Demo-
cratic party in New York city, Mr..
Murphy, who has consistently believed
that the cause of the party would best
be served by a delegation to st. Louis
left free to use its own judgment, at
once declared that in his opinion it
would be unwise at this early date to
prejudice the issue by declaring for

BOAT CLUB ACTIVE.
Minnesota Club to Resume
Work With the Shells.

which were so popular in st. Paul until
abandoned few years ago, are to be
revived this year by the Minnesota
Boat club. The races this year will be
on the river, opposite the boat club
quarters on Raspberry island.

ers in the Northwest.
1t has not as yet been decided wheth-
er the rejuvenated regatta this year
will be with Duluth or whether the
Minnesota Boat club will get back into
the Minnesota-W Winnipeg association,
but whatever course is decided upon
the promoters promise some splendid
sport for this summer.
The old-time and popular custom Of
having the prizes awarded by girls will
be revived, and a nominal admission
fee is expected to bar from the island
any persons who might be obnoxious to
the club members.

enthusiastic over the prospects for the
coming summer and plans are being
made for one of the most successful
seasons since rowing became popular
In st. Paul.
This year number of new boats Of
all descriptions will be added to the
boat club equipment and some sub
stantial repairs will be made to the
club house and the grounds.
The regatta which is to be held this
year will be the first in which the
Minnesota Boat club has participated
since 1896, when it was held at White
Bear, but it was agreed that the
Fourth of July races should be made
an annual event hereafter.
The officers for the coming year
were chosen as follows:
President, Henry Blakely; first vice
president, Charles Somers; second vice
president, John Kyle; secretary, E. Da-
wilson; treasurer, c. H. Lindeke; cap
tain, J. D. Denegre; lieutenant, Earl
