Henderson, who was a post-office Inspector for iliteen years: up to 1886, when he resigned, He testified that under’ Postmaster Veazey all employes in the money-order service were removed, There was aiso evidence of mismangement in the office. A number of bags containing mail matter, mostly circulars, were found siowed away in the Cellar. Mr. Veazey sent for Mr. Freeb who said ‘the “clerks were waiting to time to attend this mall matter.

Witness said he was discharged without cause, but he had heard “from outsiders that his discharged was made because he was a drink- ing man. In further explanation of the habit of changing averages, witness testified that the whole board re-examined the answers and changed the aver without altering the Subject matter. “In other words,” the witness said, “the examiners changed their opinions of the applicant’s merits.” The committee adjourned after a short session.
