PROBING OFPOSTOFFICE

All Large Ones In the Countryto Be Investigated.

METHODS OUT OF DATE

Business Has Trebled Since Those NowIn Operation Were Adopted, and In¬

vestigation is to Improve Theseand Correct Abuses.

(By Assoclnted Tress.)WASHINGTON, May G..A far-roach-

Ing extension of tho postofflco Investiga¬tion to Include the overhauling of most

of tho largo postofflces of tho countryIs In contemplation. This statement was

made to-day by Postmaster-GeneralPayne.Mr. Payne said the Increase by ".5,000

of tho contingent expenses of his own

office had been mado for the purposeof investigating tho affaJrs of tho post¬ónico department along thoso lines, butho admitted that It was not at that timoanticipated that tho Investigation wouldprove sensational. Tho details of tho pro¬posed general investigation, he said, havenot yet been formulated, owing to tho¦fact that all efforts are now bolng con¬

centrated on tho Investigation now inhand.It will cover all first-class postofflces

whoso annual receipts aggregate a halfmillion dollars. Mr. Payne said to-daythat the present administrative methodsof the postofflco were put In operation byPostmaster-General Wanamaker fourteenyears ago, and since then the businessof tho postónico department had trebled.Ho said that it might be that some oftho methods were faulty and their ac¬counts Irregular, and an Investigationwould be mado in tho hope of Initiatingbetter methods, as well as correctingabuses.The abstraction of papors from tho

safe of tho office of th© Assistant Attor¬ney-General for tho postónico depart¬ment by Mrs. James N. Tynor, wlto ofthe then Assistant Attorney-General, Isnow regarded as practically a closed In¬cident. The papers were token on April21, and the caso was referred to thoUnited States attorney for the District ofColumbia a week later. The matter hasnot progressed further. It has not beenpresented to the grand Jury, and It Is be¬lieved that tho grand jury would not.be likely to take action because of ladtof proof that tho papers were govern¬ment property.

There is every indication that the San*ate of Virginia will to-day reach a vot«,on the conflicting' reports submitted by,tho Committee for Courts of Justice la.the case of Judge C.. J. Campbell.Thoro were thlrty-flvo senators present

yesterday out of a total of forty, the ab¬sentees being- Messrs. Cromwell, Gold,Kutcheson, Revercomb and Wiitohead.Two of these and possibly throe, Messrs,Cromwell, Gold and Whltehead, may comain to-day arid be present this evening-when the Vote Is ¿ad on the .Campbellmatter.That would make thirty-eight of the

forty members of tha Senate present, butone of these, at least, will not vote, -andthat one Is Mr. Mann, of Nottoway, whowas a witness Before tho House Com«mittee. Mr. Gunter, tho new member,from Accomac, may vote, but It Is notpositively known whether ho will or not.Last night one of those favoring tho Cog-blll report 'claimed that Mr. Gunterwould not vote at all, but other rep'opör-are that he will and that he will supportthe Cogbill report-

Be Thirty-Five Votes.With Sonators Cromwell and Whltehead

both present and Messrs. Mann and Gun¬ter not voting:, there would bo just thirty-tlvo votes, presuming that there aie nopairs. With Senator Gold also here andthe same assumption as to Mr. Gunter,there would bo thirty-six votes. SenatorRevercomb may also be hero, but haabeen absent for some time and there-îano special reason to anticipate that hewill arrive to-day. Senator Hutoheson,of Charlotte, is in very feeble health, andIs not expected 'back ony more at thissession.With Senators Mann and Gunter not vot«

Ing and Sonators H'atohesou and Rever«eomb absent and not paired, there wouldbo a total of thirty-six votos on the Mc-llwaino and Cogbill reporta. On thJs ba-.sis the Senate Is estimated to stand aboutas follows: For Mcllwalne resolution, 15;against Mcllwaine resolution, 17; doubt¬ful or unclassified, 4; not voting; 2; to¬tal, 38, Necessary to adopt either reso«

lution, IS.Much depends upon which and how

many of tha absentees arrive to-day, andhow the four doubtful ones vote. All thisIs based upon the supposition that nonowill bo swayed in his vote by the debate,which no one can positively assert. To-do so would In effect be charging that allthe members have preconceived opinion«on the subject to be dotermained. In anyevent it may bo depended upon the vot« #.will be very close and the result in doubtuntil tho roll-call is completed.

currence In tho House Joint resolution«removing tho judge.Mr. Anderson, of Richmond, offered nit

amondmont to the Cngblll report Inserting*iu the joint resolution from tho House,the 'ííharges on which that body voted toremove Campbell. Tho first voto will b«on the substitute known as tho Mcll¬walne roport, embracing the resolutionjust montions!. In tho dvent that thisfalls of adoption, tho Andorson amend¬ment would then como up and In theevent of Its ndoption the voto would thenrenur on tho removal resolution as
