Removals from Offiee. MR, HAY ON THE POLICY OF THE ADMINIS- TRATION. In a letter to Hon, Charles Hunsicker, of Nor- ristown, Pa,, First Assistant Postmaster General Hay says, in relation to removals from ottice: ‘All administrative action should be taken with the utmost care, after due consideration nd with the fullest attainable knowledge of HL facts which might properly influence it. There ought to be mutual consideration be- tween the great mass Of the people and their selected agents in Washington, and mutual assistance should be readily rendered. There should be one spirit animating all alike—to be considerate, to. reasonable confidence and to maint with fidetity the pledges: made bi fore the election us to what demo tlic methods of government would be. The ‘spoils system,’ with ull Its aggregated and & er, was what we fought and prevailed ‘Mr. Hay concludes by saying that it 1s due to the people that when removals are made, the zrounds of such action should be publicly set fur, Republican Senators and Democratic Nominations. NO PLAN OF ACTION AGREED UPON IN cAUCUS— WHAT A REPUBLICAN SENATOR SAYS. Speaking of the report that the republican Senitors In caucus during the last days of the recent special session resolved to reject the names of democrats sent to the Senate to suc- ceed republicans whose terms of office are not out, a republican Senator said to a San re- porter to-day that no such action was taken, He added that the republican majority of the Senate would not adopt a Mne of future action based entirely upon partisanship. He said the republican Senators would not be so foolish as tosay to the country substantially that they Intended to exert the power given them In advising and consenting to nominations simply. for partisan purposes; that the Senate shall de- vote itself to keeping republicans in dnd demo- erats out of office. ‘The trath is that the subject of the future ac- tion of the inajority In relation to nominations Was discussed In cauens at different tines, but no detinite Iine of policy was adopted. IU was found that the republicans diflered among themselves, Some contended that so long as the Senate is republican it should do all in its Power to, Keep republicans in office, Others boldly declared that the degnocrats had elected. a President and were entitled to the offices, About the nearest appronch to any fixed policy was theaction in pérmitting the cases of One or two democrats nominated to succeed republi- can colivctors of revenue but recently. ay pointed to go over without action. It seemed to the view of the majority that: republican cok- lectors who were but recently installed ought not to be displaced, but that no objection would be made tp the removal of collectors who tad. served forseveral years. It will remain for the Sonate to fx Its-poliey with regard to nomina- tions next winter. ste ae ees Clearing Out Republicans, From the New York Sun, to-day, ‘The construction department of the Brook- lynnavy yard was closed yesterday and110 em- ployes, including shipwrights, blacksmiths, ma- chinists, and laborers, were discharged. The only men remaining In this department are twelve shipkeepers and about the same number of watchmen, who are retained to guard gov- ernment property.

AN INVESTIGATION OF THE DIRECTORS RE- VEAIS 4 REMARKAULE STATE OF AFFAIRS, The deficit in the Shackamaxon bi Philadelphia, which failed yesterday, is found to be $203,000, or $5,000 more than'the com- bined capital and surplus of the bank. The bank hada large number of d:positors. Not only the carpet manufacturers were customers, butalso butchers and drovers, and all thesmall shopkeepers fora mile around. It seems that the late William Bumm, who was a leading politician, and who was eiigaged in the Impure ation Of salt, Was the originator of this bank, Which was opened about ten years ago. Mr. Bumm was accounted a wealthy map, and at his demise itwas assumed that le had len a large estate. Ever since the death of William Bumm, a little less than a year ago, the aflairs Of the’ institution have been the’ subject of watehbful concern on the part of the oificials of the Philadelphia clearing house, and tore especially of Mr. D. B. Cummins, president ot the Girard bank, which institution made all the collections for the insolvent bank. Mr. Bumm founded the bank, and he practi- ealiy owned it. Mr. Thomas L. Huggard was nominally the cashier, but in reality the eleri- eal drudge of the place, doing all the routine iness of the bunk, keeping up the ordinary daily accounts, whilé Mr, Buinm managed his own affairs with a sort of exclusive care which recluded the possibility of any one else gain- Ing an insight into his peculiar doings. Arter Mr, Bumm’s successor had assumed control and the accounts of the institution could be overhauled, # very critical state of affairs was found to exist. On Monday afternoon the audit- ing committee of the board of directors met. at the bank for the purpose of examining the ac- counts. When Cashier Huggard was called upon to explain certain matters it is suid that he was taken suddenly ill, so seriously as to alarm the gentlemen present, cA cereel 1e WAS: removed to his home. After this the members of the auditing committee returned to the bank and continued the investigation of the ac- counts, ‘The directors succecded yesterday In discov- ering that large sums of money had been obtalned from the cashier, of which they had not been informed, and whictrhad, of course, been given without their | authority.
