A Weather Forecast Gorman Says that Never Before Has Inquiry Been so Vigorously Opposed is in Post Office Scandal perry Heaths Misdeeds Recited Mr. Clay Quotes the President Bristow, Conrad and Bonaparte as Saying that He Should be Indicted His Relations Kith Louis Described. Washington, March 30. The senate today began consideration of a appropriation hill, and it was tho signal for a revival of the Democratic to the for investigation demand charges of corruption in tho Postoiflce Department. The debate was Initiated by Mr. Gorman who spoke for almost two houra in criticism of tho course of tho Republican party iu the Senate in refusing an inquiry and at the same time charging the post office committee with undue haste in reiwnlug the bill, as be did Ihe Republican party with a desire to adjourn congress al nn exceptionally early date in order to moot the wishes of the President. Mr. Clay contended that there should he a congressional inquiry, saying the charges assistant against Mr. Heath, Postmaster general, were such as to demand Investigation. Mr. Penrose and Mr. Lodge spoke for the Republican side of the chamber, defending the committee on postofflees against the charge of haste, and also tbe administration. Mr. Lodge contended that Congress could not make any inquiry that would be as thorough as that already made by the Postoffice Department. He charged the Democratic k to a desire to find a political issue. Mr. Scott quoted District Attorney Beach, and Assistant Attorney-Genera- l Robb aa raying that there was not sufficient evidence upon which to Indict Heath. He then reviewed the efforts to secure authority for a senatorial investigation into postofflee affairs. Citing the various resolution Introduced to that end he said: "1 doubt whether under similar circumstances a similar resolution has ever been fought so vigorously." indeed, he said, Mr. Penrose, chairman of the committee on postofflees, waa the only Republican who had not stood out against an Inquiry. Nor had the denial been confined to Investigation, for his own simple resolution asking for the report pf the fourth assistant postmaster general and that of Messrs. Conrad and Bonaparte had been re isted and the resolution passed over for the time. In view of the tact that the reports had already been printed he had not been able to see the reason for these tactics. Mr, Gorman called attention to the promise of Mr. Penrose that the resolution should be favorably reported, but notwithstanding this promise had been made two months ago, the resolutions atill sleep in committee. In strong contrast waa the speedy action on the appropriation bill. It had come to the committee on Monday and la now here to he passed Immediately, he said, and added: Why this haste if there Is nothing to conceal? It Is said." he went on. "that Congress must adourn speedily; that from one source a request am exiting to orders has gone out; that it la inconvenient for one branch of the government to have Congress on Us hands; that If there is delay there are likely to be disagreeable Inferences from what has already been developed. In flee of Jr. Lincoln's greatness he said the Senate had Insisted on investigating the conduct of the Civil war. After the close of the war there had been much corruption and then the Republican majority in the Senate did not hesitate to authorize investigation. "So." he raid, you may follow it through all administrations to McKinley's and there will be found no denial of the right of inquiry. McKinley, he continued, was glad to afford opportunity for examination of the conduct of tbe Siwnlsh war. He was a wise and patriotic man and bad nothing to conceal," said Mr. Gorman, and he knew that the honesty and ftilr dealing of his admiiftstratlon should be subject to examination. We have reached a time when there is much preaching of honesty and high mlndednesa, bnt corruption bubbles out It came like a fog and has not yet lifte'd and we cannot tell whether all tbe information is yet out." Mr. Gorman said the charges made by the postofflee department had been made for the lnirpnee of diverting attention from the guilty oncM who had filched money from the treasury and abused their (rusts. For himself he was of the opinion that members had not done more In the matter than their duties required. In this connection Mr. Gorman called attention to the habit of criticising men ones red in IcirMntfv and he concluded thpt e lsnst-offle- ex-fir- tls f rit'.-Ii.r.- re,.:- - rtw t cf n.it i.

H ii not enough, Alabama and applied to hia aide that is is increased by an ti c extent nt from the pension ro.l oider t. tl5.t)ui',uiM to $1 j executive He, Gor au objection to i.i bis criticism was that Congress wa becoming a mere recording body. "We are now I...I, he continued, that, having provided the plans of the executive we miiM adjourn and go home because of the fear of damaging disclorurea. There are matters which it la almost criminal not to give attention tv. Yet we arc nut to be allowed to slay." Ho then referred to some of and Includrd the pending in the list Mr. Foraker' bill for tho amendment of tbe ami trust law regarding transportation. Ho referred lo Attorney Kuox'a statement regarding this bill, raying that it was a departmental measure. Mr. Foraker said that the attorney general had not given out this statement until challenged to do so by the Democratic press. This remark, Mr. Gorman retorted, waa the utterance of a true soldier in the ranks. Discussing the anti-trulaw and Mr. Foraker's amendment, Mr. Gorinau said the effect of the law waa to require the publication of rates lilts those given by Mr. Hill on hia transcontinental oceanic lines, with the result that compel.! uaiiuna got the information. Amendment therefore waa necessary and Mr. Foraker'a bill had been Intended to meet that demand. But with this as with other matters of legislation, raid Mr. Gorman, the executive interferes and notwithstanding tho need for legislation, the order is sent out that Congress must adjourn without taking up the question. How long, he asked, "are we to submit to such a system?" Tho Idea was, he said, that all should be left in the hands at the executive and that nothing shall be done until after November next. In the meantime ha continued, the law would be suspended and the matter controlled by executive order with the result that trade conditions would be so disturbed that the farmers of the northwest would go in enormous bodies to the country across the line. The American people do not want one man control, he contended, but they would have the law itself changed and then would have tbe lew He hoped that such action obeyed. would be taken as would prevent one man control in the next four years, whosoever might fill the White House. It was not enough to say that the President was honest, for honest men are not rare. 'Occasionally a dishonest man may creep In, but he is soon disposed of," said Mr. Gorman. Judgment and per id discretion also were necessary in the conduct of public affairs. It was not so much a question of the honesty of the chief executive or hia immediate advisors. Mr. Gorman raid hi did not hold Mr. Roosevelt or his cabinet officers responsible for the thievery In the department." Mr. (for man said he did not believe Smith had been cognizant of Ihe bad condition of affairs In the J os to fflee Department, as Mr. Bonaparte had charged. Mr. Bonaparte was f the. class of reformers who believed that almost all men in congress and other place were corrupt. and ho (Gorman) knew Mr. Smith too well to follow Mr. Bonaparte In the charge of corruption, made against man. had never liberal pensions. u. lefrii-laiio- u mya-terkn- him. Still he foil that sufficient has been shown to demonstrate that an investigation should be bad. He closed by declaring 1 li.it the Postnfficn Department van li'ineycomhed with corruption and Imff.clency. Mr. Penrn.-i- . chairman of tho com- mittee on i"toffice affairs, said that while orlginally.he had favored an Investigation. he had now reached the conclusion t'.at none was necessary. Mr. Pennchallenged tbe accuracy of Mr. German's statement that extraordinary baste had been exercized by the committee on postofflee in the preparation f the bill. True, only ten days had l.ci n given to the formal decision of the House, but as a matter of fact the subject matter bad been receiving attention since lsBt December. Jlr. Lods'C alto replied to Mr. Gorman. Thp-- e had been no undue haste In 'he postnffice bill ito the M " ; :!m . ti'-lfr- i So fur. t'X'lii in t'l!i Uie cliamlier.' It also should bs borne in mind, ho said, that tho charge that a President had raid that he wanted to get Congress off hia hands was to be traced to a Democratic President, and Mr. Gorman had got his Presidents mixed. Mr. Lodge declared that tho Dnmo-cral- a had criticised Ihe early meeting of Congruas and now were rrillclalng the prospect of early adjournment. It could not possibly be that, their vain efforts lo secure a campaign issue after their failure lo secure it in the efforts already made, by the navy and pensions, could bn a new departure. Nor was it reasonable to believe that such an opixikunity was wanted to view the anti trust law. in view of Mr. Cleveland's explanation that he had failed for want of time to put the antitrust law in force while he was in office. Mr. Clay took issue with Mr. Lodgs's statement that the Democratic party had opposed the railed session of Congress last fall. On the contrary, ha said, the opposition had come from the He charged that Republican party. the early adjournment of Congress was sought to prevent the opening of the books and the getting at of the truth and he declared that if Mr. Bristow's st accusations against Assistant Postmaster General Heath were corwaa rect he as guilty as Machen. Ha waa proceeding without mentioning Mr. Heath apeciflcaliy when Mr. Mai lory Interrupted to ask If he meant tbs present first assistant postmaster general. Clay replied that he did not; st that hs meant the asslsttnt postmaster general, not Mr. Wayne, whom I esteem most highly as an upright man." Mr. Clay referred to the charge against Mr. Heath in the matter or the employment of J. H. Livingstone, O. H. Smith and M. W. Louis, superintendent of suppllee, saying that the charge had been made that Mr. Heath had escaped indictment only because of the statute of limitations. Mr. Scott said he did not think that statement correct and Mr. Clay said that he had been mistaken In supposing that this explicit statement had been officially made. Mr. Scott read a letter from Assistant Attorney General Robb of the postofflee department, raying that the evidence did not warrant the Indictment of Mr. Heath. Mr. Clay replied by raying that Mr, Scott ,wra the only champion of Mr. Heath that had appeared on the floor of the Senate and Mr. Scott replied that it was Mr. Robb and not himself who waa the champion. Then," responded Mr. Clay, he has not. a single champion here to defend him. Mr. Scott: According to Mr. Robb's statement he does not need any defense." Mr. Clay replied by giving the details of the employment of Mr. Louis as superintendent of supplies for the postofflee department, which he add had been accomplished by Mr. Heath by first appointing Louis as cashier in the Kansas City postofflee and then having him proceed with the work here without ever having seen the Kansas Heath, he said, had City postofflee. been anxious to secure a man in sympathy with himself In tbe purchase of supplies and tbe appointment to Kansas City had been made because of Louis' inability to pass the civil service examination. Reviewing Mr. Louis' career In the department ,Mr. Clay raid that he had increased prices paid for supplies from 20 to 75 per cent. All this. sal.1 Mr. Clay, is interesting. You may pick on Bristow if you wish, but he has done a work that I appreciate. He then proceeded to give specific Instances of the charges against Louis, including in them the one that he had ceased buying good ink at 18 cents a pound and Instead had contracted to pay 30 rents. Nor would be concede, he added, as Mr. Scott suggested, that this had been done because the 16 cent Ink was not adapted to the purpose to which it was put. He urged sn investigation m the Only method of determining the truth of the charges made. The President, Mr. Bristow and Messrs Conrad and Bonaparte had all said that Heath should he investigated and he thought that they should be taken at thetr word. If Mr. Bristow's charges against Heath were not true they constituted a slander and Mr. Heath should have the right to defend hlm--- rj ne-lr--t them. Vr. Peott Mid It yer i t!' ; '1 r.v (0 h !!".

TIMBER AND STONE LANDS. Alleged Abueea In Thair Acquirement and Sals. Washington. March 30. A hearing on Senate and House bills for tho repeal of the timber and stone acta of the public lands was held today by tho House committee on public lands. Representative Hogg of Colorado vigorously protested against repeal of these law, and Representative Reeder of Mr. Kansu favored their repeal. Reeder asserted that the public lands of the country were being disposed of under these acta at an alarming rate and at a price ($2.50 por acre) much below their real value. In this way the valuable timber and atono lands were being acquired by large Mill men and lumbermen holders. were acquiring timber lands and the atone lands were being gathered in by A man would buy 1(10 quarrymen. acres at $2.50 per acre and then sell the name to a company.
