WASHINGTON, January 23.--With a

over the appointment OF Representa-

the government as result OF the big

two years ago. At that time there was

and all but si7. 260 OF this amount has
been recovered. AS it has been clearly
shown that Mr.. Allan was in no way
to blame for the robbery. the Senate

that the postmaster should not be

likely that Senators Martin and Swan
