charge Of graft with reference to the
increase In the salary Of the post
master Of West Asheville TO $500 and
the appointment Of a clerk at a sal
airy Of $500 when the receipts Of the
office amounted to less than one hun
drcd dollars 4 ear, all Of which is
alleged to have been done over the
protest Of the then postmaster. Mr..
Heron, has sufficiently impressed the
P~oStofiice Department To result i'm q
compilation Of all Of the facts from
the records on file here. The report
with regard TO the BuncOmbe office
was completed today. and is now IN
the hands OF the first Assistant POST
master General. 1t has not beNn
made public, but it is said that the
charges made by former Senator An
derSon are more or less true. If
the report is not made public before
hand it will probably be called for
by the North Carolina Senators when
the confirmation of Postmaster w. w.
Rollins is taken up on the reassem-
bling Of Congress.
Chairman Rollins relation to he
case hinges on the charge made by
Anderson, that he forced Jake Wray,
the $500 clerk. on the West AsheViIle
Olllce over the tIilpIldIlt protest u
Postmaster Heron. It Is noted on
very good authority hat Herron's
protest is in writing and among the
records contained in the report pre-
pared today. Officials at the Post
Office Department We're asked by the
representative Of a newspaper who
recommended to George w Beavers,
the chief of salaries and allowances,
the appointment Of a clerk at . sal
airy in excess Of the pOStmaster's and
5000 increase in the conduct of the
office, but no answer could be OBJ
tanned.
Attorney General Moody returned
today, but declined to m on
Anderson's open letter to him. His
secretary announced that the letter,
would not be noticed.
1t is likely that J. j. Britt. of Ashe-
Vile, who holds a job in Collector
.Harkins' Office will be appointed spe-
cial assistant district attorney in con-
nection with the trial Of revenue
officials and others TO be tried at a
special term of Federal court in
Greensboro next week.

(Rv the Associated Press.)

Wilmington, Del. Dec. 3Q.-Laden
With dynamite, the steamship Pennsyl-
vania, from New York. for San Fran
cisco. via. Philadelphia. craShed into
the schooner Prescott Palmer today,
while the schooner was aground on
Cherry Island flats in the Delaware
river. SO great was the impact that al
though the collision occurred before
daylight. it was not until late in the
afternoon that the vessels were sep
arated. The sharp prov OF the steam
er cut into the schoOner'S stern for a
distance OF thirty feet. That th-
Pennsylv1nia's cargo of dynamite did
not explode is regarded as little shorr
of miraculous. The Prescott Palmer
is hard aground and is in danger OF
breaking in two. The damage to the
schooner is estimated at 100000.
Captain Carlisle, Of the schooner, as
sorts that there was no fog when the
PENNSYLVANIA struck his craft. and has
filed a libel against the owners OF
the teamer and the latter has been
seized by United States Marshal Flynn.
The Prescott Palmer is owned by Will
liam d. Palmer. of Boston, for which
port ste was bound with 400 tons
of coal. The Pennsylvania is owned
by the Northwestern Steamship Com
pany. of Seattle. Washington.
