Late Postal Official.

Washington, Jan. 6.-When the SEN

declaring that the president has no
power to declare war was read, but at
the request Of Mr.. Morgan it syent over
for the day.
recting the postmaster general to send
to the senate the papers connected with
the postoffice department Irregularities
and providing for q senatorial inveSti-
cation was taken up and Mr.. Lodge
moved its reference to the committee
on postoffices.
Mr.. Carmack resisted this motion de-
cIaring that if departmental irregulari-
ties were to be investigated only by the
departments themselves it would not be
long until they would sbe stencil in
the nostrils of the people" The only
safeguard was in congressional inveSti-
cation, he said.
Mr.. Teller expressed the opinion that
the postoffice department would make
a thorough investigation. but contented
that the legislative branch should re-
tain the right to make an inquiry. Mr..
Clay expressed surprise that there
should be opposition to the resolution
and he called attention to the declara-
lions by Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Bristow and Counsellors Bona
parte and Conrad that the inveStlga-
ton should be carried further.
He declared that the Bristow report
demonstrate the absolute guilt of the
late first assistant postmaster general
Mr. Heath. He, Bristow, says himself
that this leading high official was
guilty and the proof overwhelming. II
this is true, Mr.. Heath should have
been indicted. L will do Mr.. Brfstow
the credit to say that his report shows
that the frauds OF the postoffice de-
partment originated in Heath's office.
