SeXR Tp WASHINGTON, May 28.—A large corps of inspectors, including some of the vet- erans of the service, probed the alleged irregularities at the Postoffice Department to-day, but no further arrests were made. It is sald to be possible that the inter- mediary, who, it is alleged, figured in the transactions which led to the arrest of August W. Machen, the former general superintendent of the free delivery ser- vice, will turn State’s evidence. His iden- | tity has not yet been disclosed. Mach- en’s counsel issued a statement asserting his ability to disprove fully all the charges. The investigating officials are equally confident. The Government is a: ranging to have its witnesses at Machen's preliminary hearing on June 5. The pre liminary hearing of the Groff brothers, the profits of whose firm Machen is ac- cused of having shared on a 40 per cent | basis, has been set for June 9. | Samuel A. Groff, one of the brothers ! arrested yesterda the police force to-day pending the hear- ing of his case. His return to duty de- pends on the result of the court proceed- ings against him. | CHARGES AGAINST BEAVERS.| A report was published here to-day that George W. Beavers, the former superin- tendent of the division of salaries and al- lowances, was in the city, out the depart- ment denied having any such information. | | Payne was asked as to the nature of the | charges on file against Beavers. He re-| | plied that they might be summed up as | | the payment of extravagant prices for | materials and supplies used in his divis- | icn, including time clocks and stamping | machinery. He said there was only one | charge that Beavers had received a com- sion on these supplies. This charge, he said, was under investigation. A much more rigid overhauling of the affairs of Beavers’ former office will begin shortly. The investigation of the affairs of the . delivery division, it is said, has n en interrupted by the arrest of Machen. The inspeetors who brought about that re- sult are continuing their inquiry and will probe into other charges against Machen, In this connection Postmaster General Payne to-day said that one of the charges under investigation was an allegation that Machen had forged the name of another man on an official paper about ten years ago. He sald that Machen knew of this charge and had informed him (the Post- master General) that he (Machen) was ready at any time to bring conelusive proof that he was innocent. Other charges involve letter box contracts. Some of the charges are similar to those on which | yesterday's arrest was based. PROBING TO BE THOROUGH. Overhauling of the free delivery branch | will be thorough and Postmaster General Payne to-day declared with emphasis that the investigation would not end until all irregularities had been thoroughly in- quired Into and eradicated. He said there had been a few charges against several | other officers of the department, but the complaints of irregularities were confined practically to the free delivery service, the salary and allowance division and the office of the Assistant Attorney General. Postmaster General Payne has been giving much attention to means for better safeguarding the miscellaneous appro- priations available in various bureaus. These appropriations offer the greatest latitude in expenditures. “Unquestionably,” said Payne, abuses will not occur,again.” He called attention to the fact that the | rural service at its inception was of an experimental nature, and said that much latitude was given on that account. The employes of that service until recently were not subject to civil service rules, their appointments being made subject | to the discretion of the Postmaster Gen- eral, who, he added, was after all the re- sponsible party, though the great multt plicity of details made it, physically im- possible for him to examine into every matter he signed. The Groff contract was made under the miscellaneous ap- | propriation for the free delivery service ! fln% the first inkling of the circumstances | that led to Mr. Machen's arrest was gained in examining miscellaneous ex- venditures. MAKES PLEA FOR MACHEN. Charles A. Douglass of counsel for Ma- chen to-day gave out the following state- ment of the present status of the Machen case: Mr. Machen cannot fight out his case in the newspapers, but this much can with propriety be stated: The charges, seemingly made witn great deliberation, are of the gravest character and if the Government succeeds in establishing them Mr. Machen and every one connected witn the case ought to be severely punished however, they have been made improvi and without sufficient evidence, public censure, swift and strong, shoyld fall upon the heads ot {he responsible partieh Mr. Machen has b a long time in the public service and he is Wideiy and favorably known throughout the United States, and it is due him that the public should not prejudge his case. Mr. Machen is Teady to meet, in the clearest and most satis- factory way, the charges now specifically made | against him and he now generally and publicly | invites the most rigid Investigation into every | aet and transaction connected with his official | lite.” More than this ehould not now be said. “‘these | NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. SCOURING YOUR SCALP. Will Remove the Loose Dandruff 1f your halr is brittle and thinning, you have dandruff. The mere scouring of the | scalp of the loose scales won't cure dan- druff, because dandruff is nothing but | scales of scalp being thrown up by a pes- i tiferous little germ in burrowing its way to the root of the hair where it saps tne vitality, causing falling hair and in time | baldness. Now you can't stop dandruff, | nor falling hair. nor prevent baldness un’ | less you destroy that germ: and the only preparation that can do it is the new seci- entific discovery, Newbro's Herpicide.
