Mr. B. L. “'oodworthreturned, Thursday,
from \Vashington. \Vhile in that city he held
interviews with Postmaster general Key, and
First Asst. Tyner relative to the matter of
Capt. H. P. Burr, and gained information as
to methods of procedure in cases of that kind.
The department representatives had taken an
outside view only, and seemed inclined to
have the case culminate according to estab—
lished precedent, mea-ring thereby to dismiss
Capt. Burr and appoint his successor. The
department ofiicials were of the opinion that
as the Capt. had pleaded guilty to the charges
made by the detective, there was no course
left but to adhere to rules and have him re-
moved. At‘tcr Mr. W’s arrival home, the
record of the pleading in possession of U. S.
Commissioner M. W. Seymour, at Bridgeport,
disclofld the fact that the Capt. had not
pleaded guilty, but instead, had waived ex-
amination giving bonds as is usual in such
cases. This gave the case an entirely new
complexion, and the department was notified
of the facts. With all due appreciation for
the majesty of the law, and willing to aid in
the maintenance of truth and justice, this
people feel that it is their right and duty to
