Charges Not Considered.

~ A dispatch from Washington, dated the
7th instant. gives the following:
"The charges made to the Senate against
Postmaster Veirs, of Rockville, were re-
ferred to the Postoffice Department by the
Senate Committee on Postoff1ces, and the
Department has made reply that charges
are not deemed worthy Of serious consider.
alton. 1t Is stated at the Department that
the charges communicated to the Senate are
q duplicate of those sent to the Department
after the reappointment of Veirs had been
decided upon.
ut Is stated at the Department that In the
letter to the Senate Committee the commit
tee was informed that the charges, with al
legged political activity, discrimination, etc.,
were sent TO the department by disppoint
ed candidate and signed by person whom
the department had turned down as bidder
on route because not satisfied as to his re.
sponsibilty, and that the references cited In
support Of the charges were, in part at least,
not such as to command attention. The
appointment was made on high class OF
recommendations, the record OF the post
master during the past four years had been
excellent and the department could see
nothing In the character OF the charges,
their source and the conditions surround
ing the making Of the complaint that would
warrant their being regarded as sufficient
to discredit Mr.. Veirs."

The county engineer should have the
care and control of all machinery owned by
the county and be responsible for Its main
tenance and proper repair.
The report of the Chief Engineer for 1905
shows 30 contracts covering 401 miles of
road and costing $12,592 as the som of the
work for the year. The cost OF administer
ing this construction was $12,521.61, being
little less than per cent.
| DO not know the compensation OF the
Chief Engineer, but suppose as Chief Engi.
neer ofthe Geological Survey he has fixed
salary paid ont OF other appropriations than
the State aided funds. Assuming this to be
the case it would seem l per cent of the
above $212, 900 would provide for the addi-
tionaI cost growing out of his duties la con
nection with the actual road construction.
If this be the case, and the allotment OF
funds to our county remains as it now is,
$10,326 per annum, the county's equal sum
would make a total OF $40 ,652, and the re-
naming 5 per cent OF the administration
fund would equal total of 1902, and this
| should be placed to the credit of engineering
expenses.
Looking TO the compensation of county
engineer, we find saving in preparation of
plans, $268 administration, 81 ,032; exam

ty Commissioner Of yesterday or to-day

EMPLOYING CHILD LABOR.
Discussion Of Local Bill in the Sem

The bill to regulate the employment OF
child labor In the District OF Columbia was
the subject Of discussion In the Senate
today. which developed opposition to it on
the part of Senator Hale. who declared
that 1t was In line with other efforts to have
the government take charge OF domestic
affairs. He said the bill would prevent

contributing to the support OF his Wild
owed mother
Senator Lodge stated that the bill was
not what Senator Hale declared 1t to be-
He said 1t was In line with modern legisla-
ton In many states. It merely prevented a
boy under fourteen years of age from be-
Ing employed during school hours. and pro-
vtded that boys under sixteen should have

Senator Dubois said that at present there

DIR. WEAVER RETRACTS
ADMITS HIS MISTAKE REGARDING
MRS. MORRIS.

DR.. Fl. Bascom Weaver of Asheville. N
C., has come out in an extended explana-
ton regarding his previous statement to
the effect that he treated Mrs. Minor Nor
ris for insanity, entering disclaimer of re-
.sponsbility, and saying that he was as
sured that his letter would be treated as
Confidential"
az was not consciously a party to any
undertaking performance says DIR. Wea-
yer, but In his "confdential' letter de-
nouncing his alleged patient to be a crank
he referred specifically to Mrs. Minor
Morris" Now he admits that he did not
even know the name of his patient. except
that she was a Mrs. Morris. He also says
that he could not identify his Mrs. Morris
II he should see her before him.
The Raleigh News and Observer, In a
dispatch from Asheville published June 8,
says:
'Dr II. B. Weaver today made a state
lnent ,oucerning the now famous letter
which he wrote Maj, Sylvester with the OBJ
ject of aiding that official In establishing
the mental status of Mrs. Minor Morris
and incidentally of B. t. Barnes. DR..
Weaver was surprised to see his letter IN
print, and stated that he had previously
refraiued from making statement because
he had regarded the matter as confidential
Also he does not see how his letter can be
construed definitely to mean Mrs. Minor
MOTIFS although puDDSneO Tedu.
Il deem 1t proper to state my knowledge
OF Mrs. Minor Morris from a medical
standpoint. About two years ago. while
Mrs. Morris was in Florida etc; going on
to state that his patient was crank. L
was not he said, the one to make the
advances, and when writing II supposed
and was assured 1t would be respected as
confidential. I was not consciously party
to any undertaking performance
I'm reply to the question whether he had
ever treated Mrs. Minor Morris he stated
that all he knew of the matter was that
he had treated a Mrs. Morris. the wife of a
physician, and a woman whom he believed
at the time of writing the letter to be Mrs.
Minor Morris He was led TO believe this by
the similarity OF the names, the fact
that both were wives of physicians from
the published description of Mrs. Morris.
and from the published accounts of her
eccentriclty and general conduct.
" No sir said DR.. Weaver In response to
q query, L could not identify my patient
OF two or three years ago should 1 see her.
Should Mrs. Minor Morris be shown me l
could not swear that had ever treated her
or that she was my former patient l was
led TO entertain that belief at one time. but
in view of the denial of Mrs Morris and
her husband that the lady was ever In
Asheville L am not prepared to dispute
their assertions
THE significance of this tatement Is easily
seen. II wholly destroys the value of such
evidence as DIR. Weaver may have given
and which is being used to secure the con-
firmation of b. +. Barnes, the hero of the
that he treated Mrs. Morris, but he is
not now prepared to identify Mrs Minor
Morris the woman 'iu common parlance
called a crank"
