walters in Washington speaking with a

more than suspicion. The names and de.

given to officials, and these men probably
will find themselves useless In this city

The Herald Is informed that some of
these walters were in the habit Of seeking
employment upon special dinner occa-
sions. Whether any Washington caterers
to official homes are suspected of COM
plicity in the employment Of these spies
is not divulged.
Much Of the confidential ofYicial busi-
ness of Washington is carried on over the

Cabinet officers at their Offices are pretty
well taken up with visitors and attention
