HITCHCOCK FINDS A PLACE
Was for Widow of a Negro Who Lost
His Life in Postofice Building.

From The Tribune Bureau
Washington, June N-Postmaster Cen
eral Hitchcock was happy to-day. for he
has relieved his conscience of a load which
has given him a great deal of worry. Some
time ago poor negro laborer lost his life
in the Postoffie Department Building. He
left wife and five small children.
The idea of the mother and her little
flock losing their only means Of support. al
most under his eyes, seemed to prey greatly
upon Mr.. Hitchcock mind. Many times he
presence of members of Congress and other
callers A few days ago Mr.. Hitchcock
asked Theodore L. Weed. his chief clerk.
whether the widow was physically able to
work, and. if so. to try TO find position in
the department, where she could earn
enough to support herself and children.
After an investigation Mr.. Hitchcock was
informed that there was not an opening in
the department outside of the classified SER
vice
1t was at this point that Mr.. Hitchcock
convinced the men in his office of the in
Justice of the charge of his critics that he
measures all his patronage favors by politi-
cal considerations. After silence he ex-
claimed: II simply must find place for
that poor woman. Weed, you call up Sec
retary Nagel and see if he cannot do some
thing for her" Mr.. Nagel found place,
and the negress went to work to-day in the
Department of Commerce and Labor

FEARED A CANNON SPEECH
Democrats Heard the Speaker
Was Going to Lecture Them.

Washington June N.-The story of what
threatened to be q dramatic episode in the
closing hours Of Congress leaked out to-
day. A rumor spread on the Democratic
side of the House on Saturday night that
Speaker Cannon would devote the final
hour to an excoriation of both the insur-
gent Republicans and the Democrats for
their attitude in some of the strenuous
periods of the session.
Just at this time Mr.. Martin of Colorado
Democrat, sprang his successful effort
for action on a resolution to investigate the
Philippine friar land sales. Mr.. Rodenberg,
of Illinois. a Republican colleague of Mr.
Cannon, hurried to Mr.. Clark, OF Missouri
the Democratic leader, urging him to call
off Mr.. Martin.
Mr.. Clark asked Mr.. Rodenberg point
blank whether the Speaker intended to
make such a speech, declaring that if there
was any such purpose he would demand an
hour himself, and would not only not call
off Mr.. Martin, but would aid him.
Mr.. Rodenberg knew of no such intention.
nor did anybody else. so far as the Demo-
Gratis could learn. and Mr.. Clark and other
Democratic conferrees talked with the
wrathy Coloradan. Mr. Martin was obdu-
rate, but succeeded in having the resolution
passed without delaying adjournment.

TO OPEN POSTAL BANKS
First Meeting of the Trustees TO
Be Held Tomorrow.
From The Tribune Bureau.

washington, June I.-Steps have been
taken to put the postal savings bank sys-
tenn in operation at the earliest possible
date. great deal of preliminary work
must be done, and 1t will be several
months before any repositories Will be
ready to accept funds.
The administration of the law is in
trusted to e board of trustees, consisting
of the Postmaster General. the Secretary
of the Treasury and the Attorney General
the Postmaster General being chairman OF
the board Under the House bill, pre-
retary of the Treasury was designated as
chairman of the board, but this was
changed in order more clearly to identify
the new banks with the Postoffice Depart
ment.
The first meeting Of the board Of trus-
tees will be held tomorrow. when the
situation will be gons ovec in a general
way and plans outlined for organizing the
service and adopting regulations fo- the
conduct Of this new government business
A test will be made in few postofficeo
before the system is applied to the country
generally.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has ap-
pointed COMMITTEES of departmental Off
GERS to begin the preparation of such blank
forms and instructions as will be needed in
the establishment of the postai savings
system. To aid this COMMITTEES in it's work
he has requested the postal administrations
of all foreign countries that have savings
banks to furnish his department with
samples of their blank forms and copies
of their regulations and instructions.

OFFICIALS I'M QUANDARY
Belief, However, That Charlton.
if Sane, Will Be Given Up.
TFrom The Tribune Bureau. !

Washington, June Estate Department
officials Enthusiastically IN a quandary over
the problem presented by the Charlton ex-
tradition. apparently are not disposed TO
regard whatever correspondence may have
passed between the department and the
Italian diplomatic representative as con-
stituting a demand for the surrender Of the
prisoner.
Although Secretary Knox refuses 70 dis
cuss the case, because he may be called
upon later to pass upon the question. ths
department maintains that no formal re-
quest has been received
II is believed that any demand made by
Italy will be conditional. with the under
as a modification of it's former attitude that
the extradition treaty does not cover the
surrender by either country Of its own
citizens. If Charlton is declared sane, it is
believed that he will be given up under
these conditions, as otherwise the crime TO
which he confesses would go unpunished-
This action would amount virtually 70
suspension Of the application of the treaty
in the present instance The prisoner would
be turned over for trial on the broader
ground of the administration Of Justice
The italian Penal Code itself stipulates
that an Italian subject shall not be turned
over to another government for trial. and
it is not regarded as likely that the Italian
government will go to the extent OF chang
ing its laws and revising its treaty OF ex-
tradition with the United States In order
that Charlton may be punished

RIVERS AND HARBORS POLICY
Future Bills To Be Framed by Army
Engineers.

Washington June FIT leaked out to-
day that three days before Congress ad-
journed President Taft started in to dictate
a message vetoing the river and harbor
bill. which he finally signed. At the last
moment the President decided to give the
trainers OF the measure a hearing. He sent
for them and ii was because of their ex-
plantations and the announcement Of their
plans for the future that Mr.. Taft finally
affixed his signature to the bill.
The President was told that the commit
tee in charge OF the bill had been com
1nitted by previous Congresses to carry on
certain projects. The other items in the
bill, it said, were in accord with the
policy which the President has announced
for his administration.
This means that in the future river and
harbor bills are to be framed by army en-
gineers. Certain specific projects are to be
decided upon by the engineers as feasible
and of general benefit. Then they will be
carried forward. Mr. Taft In his message
to Congress on Saturday last announced
that he would not sign another bill SO gen.
eral in character.
Senator Nelson md Representative Alex
ander talked the matter over with the
President to-day and announced that they
were in hearty accord with the Presidents
policy. Mr.. Alexander said
1.-The President wants an elimination OF
all unimportant projects, even though they
have been approved by the engineers, and
the systematic completion of the more i'm
portant ones. The act of 1910 paves the
way for this reform. in which Senator Nell
son and / are in hearty accord. 1t has also
paved the way for an annual bill of mod
crate SIZE not to exceed 100000 or $780,
GOO, ,000 which is the only way OF overcoming
the present piecemeal policy"
