Col. Burnside. Disbursing Clerk, Cots Awny With *43,000. Washington, May 29.—When the em ploye* of the Post-office Department went to tho offices of the disbursing officer this morning to receive their month's salary, they found the doors closed and the pay notices removed. It was soon learned that the post-office inspectors were ex amining the account of J. O. T. Burnside, superintendent of the post-office and dis bursing clerk, and within a few hours it was announced that a shortage of $45,000 had been discorcred. The Postmaster- General thereupon Issued an order removing Superintendent Burnside from office. The following of ficial explanation for the action was fur nished by direction of the Postmaster-Gen eral i A committee consisting of A. G. Sharp, chief post-office inspector, G. W. Wells, chief of the division of finance, and J. T. Smith, chief of the bookkeeping di vision of the sixth auditor's office, exam ined the accounts of Colonel J. O. P. Burn side, superintendent and disbursing officer for the Post-office Department. The re salt of the examination showed a shortage of about $45,000. His accounts have not been fully audited by the Treasury Depart ment since the 30th of June, 1881, and It is probable that misappropriations have occuired from time to time since that date. The Postmaster-General dismicsed him from office and caus ed him to be ousted and proceedings to be instituted for embezzlement. It has been ACCIDENTS AND CRIMES.

This might, perhaps, have excited suspicion but for liis statement that his wife was in receipt of a large private income. The amount of his bond is $90,000, and hi* •ureties are said to be responsible. A ca rious fact shown by the records is that Hurnside's immediate predecessors, Ed- ward Olmstead and Frank McCartney, were removed for embezzlement. Burn side's appointment was recommended by Senators Kdmunds, Logan, Cullorn and others, and by a number of Representa tives. He was taken in charge to-day by an inspector, and arraigned before a United States commissioner this after noon. He refuses to make any statement, except that the money had been lost in speculation. He made a fine record as a soldier in the Union volunteer servico in the late war, having been mustered out as a lieutenant-colonel. He is now the colonel of the National Kiilrs, a popular military organization of the District of Columbia. It is said that the system of auditing the accounts of the Treasury De- f iartmcnt permitted Burnside to carry arge balances upon paper, without a veri fication of the cash at short intervals. This afternoon Colonel Burnside was formally arrested upon a warrant charging him with the embezzlement of $45,000, and was brought into the police court for in vestigation. After a short consultation with his counsel, Jere Wilson, and the district attorney, the latter stated that the defendant would waive examination and ive bail for his appearance before the rimlnal Court, and that the government would ask to have ball fixed at $15,000, the amount of the defalcation. Wilson con tended that tho ball demanded was ex cessive. but after some argument thecourt decided to require the amount named by the district attorney, and said counsel could petition the Criminal Court for an abatement. Col. Burnside was nnable to famish the requisite hall to-night, but expects to get it to-morrow night, though be is at his home In the custody of a deputy United States marshal, and has arranged with Judge Snell to meet the latter at his court with bondsmen at 9 o'clock to-motrow.

He wrote with a pencil and sent the following note to Alex Thweat, his associate In the Hcket office: "Dear Alex: I am shot through the bead and will die. Come after me. “Arch." Friends went to him at once and found him in a critical condition. He was moved as soon as possible to the residence of his uncle, Major Orme, on Peachtree street, where he now lies at the point of death. He is attended by Drs. Ridley and Westmoreland, who are unable, as yet, to say whether there is any hope. They have probed for the bail, but without success. Information has just been received that he had been sleeping peacefully, he is now suffering great pain in the head. No cause is given for the act, and Mr. Orme will say nothing about it. Street reports say he was short in an amount ranging between $7,000 and $18,000, and the auditors of the various roads have been in the office looking through the books Intimate friends vigorously deny these re ports and claim that his accounts will be found oil right, and say ths cause was i |purely personal. Mr. Orme is the son of N. P. Orme, a wealthy ciUzen of West Point, ex-treasurer of the West Point railroad, nephew of Major Orme, of At lanta, general passenger agent of the West Point railroad, and brother of Joe Orme, cashier of Lowery’s Bank. He Is about 28 years old and unmarried. He has held the position at the union ticket office several years, with a hand some *aiary. He is of engaging manners, popular, moves in the highest circles, and has a large number of friends. The affair It talked of everywhere and unanimously regretted. The act was committed delib erately, *nd it is reported tint be said yes terday he intended to kill himself. 11:30 r. m.—The latest from Arch Orme's condition is that It is unchanged, possibly easier. His physicians are with him and have decided that the ball had entered t'ue brain. Rev. C. M. Beckwith has been often at the bedside to-night, offering pray, ers for the recovery of the sufferer.

London, May 31.—The newspapers de vote a large portion erf their space to the explosions, and comment upon them In their editorial columns in a vigorous fashion. The Telegraph says: "It be hooves the English people to reflect whether further and sterner measures should not be taken to put a stop to the public peril and mischief to which they are now exposed. Each fresh act of cru elty and malice will strengthen the reso lution of the English not to yield one jot to those who arc wishing to dismember t empire. The Standard declares that no conces sion can be made to outrage. The only result it has attained so far has been fail ure and penal servitude. The nation la disgusted and annoyed, but not alarmed.

Whilst there nresome(l,forone)who who would dellglu to sea customs duliea abolished, yet the revenue tariff Democrats do not urge Hint, but a simple reduction of duUea to a revenue standard.
