Preacher Forecasted Lynching. 1
Rev. Robert A. Eltwoni, pastor i
the Olivet Presbyterian church
preached a sensational sermon on the
probable lynching of White last Sun

from ourselves that pricked person.
"I rail your espeeisl attention

stltutlon, which says: 'In all criminal
prosecutions the accused shall enjoy

"On the day o' tnls terrible crime

become the situation as regards the
postofllce scandals that no official of
the administration, however high uji
ho may be, feels competent to predict
where the Investigation will end or
what moro startling sensations it will
bring forth. At Ihe department the ex
citement among the employes is on the
Increase and pervades every branch.
This Is regarded os a bad sign and ev
ery postofllce Inspector In the employ
ment of the government is working
over hours In Washington and in other
par's of the country. Now that the in
vestigation has begun the president de-
clarec that tho accounts of every post-
office In the country shall be gono
through before this Investigation stops.
A large force of Inspectors has been
dispatched to New York, and they al
ready have facts In hand which indi
cate that New York will prove almost
ns fertile n field for scandal as is tho
department at the capital.
Postmaster General Payne's position
Is one of Increasing embarrassment.
Indeed, his closest friends admit that
the situation looks bad for him. When
the Tttlloeh charges were flrst made
Mr. Payne gave an Interview to a doz
en newspaper men at the postofllce
department, In which he declared the
Tttlloeh charges were so much "hot
air" aud had no more weight than a
"stump speech.” The forthcoming re
port of Fourth Assistant Postmaster
Gcncrcl Bristow, who Is In charge of
the Investigation, is said to sustain
practically every one of the Tulloch
charges. The postmaster general In
formed Ihe president of this fact Tucs.
tiny afternoon aT a conference. Tho
president, while regretting to place Mr.
Payne In nn awkward position, feels
that the Bristow report should be
made public, nnd he has so ordered.
Mr. Payne, Iherofore, will have to in
dorse n report-confirming the charges
which he only a short while ago de
clared to be “hot air."
Mr. Payne started out by making light
of ihe charges that there was any scan
dal In the department. Although start-
Hag revelations had been made while
t'.c flrst assistant postmaster general,
Mr. Wynne, was acting in Mr. Payne's
abscnco hi the West Indies last winter,
Mr. Payne upon his return declared
that the newspapers had kicked up too
much of a racket and he proposed that
the investigation should continue
quietly. He persistently laughed nt
the rharges that his department waa
In a rotten state of corruption. He ar
sited with the newspaper men In a
levltous vein lhal they were making
n mountain out of a mole bill, and that
there was no Are. despite the smoke
Mr. Wynne had stirred up.
here Is no getting around the fact
hat Mr. Payne has bungled the inves-
Igallnn from the beginning. When the !
president returned from the west he |
round things going In a very unsatis
factory way despite the emphatic or-
rs he hail telegraphed from various '
Points In his tour that the Investiga
tion was to bo pushed with vigor, and
ihe fact that the entire postal service j
Is undergoing a thorough Inspection Is
thpweuult of the'personal concern the
president has shown since his return.
