Bureau, 0usted by
President.
NEXT
Comes as Result of Attempt to
Discharge Two Subor-
dinateS.

Washington, Sept. 6.-Public Printer
F. w. Palmer practically has been
ousted from office. II was learned au-
thortatively last night that President
Roosevelt had demanded Palmer's res
ignation, to take effect on the 18th
inst
The demand of the president for
Palmer's resignation was due primarily
to the latter's action in trying to force
Oscar J. Ricketts,, foreman of printing
and l.. c. II. Hay. the foreman of a di-
vision, out of the government printing
office. Palmer asked for the resigna-
tions of Ricketts, and Hay on the
ground that they had been insubordin-
ate.
Forwarded Charges.
The public printer formulated a ser
les of charges against the two men.
These charges, it is known, were for
warded to Oyster Bay. Inquiry into
the affairs of the printing Office devel-
oped a condition detrimental to the
governments interests. Nothing has
been found TO the disadvantage of
Ricketts, and Hay.
AS soon as the president learned of
the situation that had developed. he di-
rected Palmer to forward to him his
resignation, to take effect in two weeks.
Talk of His Successor.
With the incoming of Palmers sue
cessor. and there is ample authority for
the statement that he has not been Sc
iected yet, it is expected that a thor.
ough reorganization of the working
force of the government printing office
will take place. Among those mention
ed in connection with the office are
Oscar j. Ricketts,. whom Palmer sought
to remove; II. T. Brian. chief clerk of
the office: William s. Rossiter, chief
clerk of the census bureau, and John
Leech, public printer in the Philip
pines.

were found near Huron island. The
stern of a schooner had been thrown
up on the end of Point Abbaye. The

1t is now believed that both the
steamer Iosco and the schooner Olive
jeanette, which the Iosco had in tow,
in the vicinity where the
wreckage has been sighted. 1t is GER
tain that the Olive jeanette is lost. The
lighthouse keeper on Huron island
plainly saw a big schooner founder
four miles north of the light at 4
o'clock Sunday afternoon. No steamer
was in sight at the time. The schoon-
er, when first sighted had jib and fore
sail set. and was nearly water-logged.
Not long afterward the ship went
down. The lighthouse keeper had no
means of rendering assistance in the
sea running.

The three days which have elapsed
since the Olive jeanette foundered
would have brought news from the
Iosco were that boat still afioat, but
the owners at Cleveland have given up
hope. The Iosco carried a crew of 10
men.
