(From a Staff Correspondent.) DES MOINES, June lS.-(8peclal.)-The somewhat famous Oreenwell case from Mexico will not be finished immediately. The case has assumed some peculiar phases since It was started. Oreenwell Is accused of murder In Mexico. He was arrested In Davenport and held, awaiting the requisi tion of the Mexican government. He was brought to Des Moines for a preliminary hearing before Clerk McArthur of the fed eral court, acting as a commissioner, and this hearing has developed Into a trial for murder, la which the Mexican government appeara as prosecutor, and an attorney la here from Mexico to see that the case Is prosecuted to the finish. But the proceed' Inge are so peculiar that the attorneys have been having trouble. One rule in regard to such matters was that while the testimony of tho Mexican government might be shown by depositions that of the defense must be by oral testimony. The impossibility of putting up a good defense here by oral testimony waa apparent and so the at torneys In the case telegraphed the Mex ican ambassador for permission to make a showing for the defense by depositions. In order to get these a thirty days' continu ance was agreed to.. In the meantime the attorney for the Mexican government will remain here and Oreenwell will be sent back to jail at Davenport.

Developments of great Interest In the Investigations of the postofflce scandals are expected here this week. The many Inspectors sent from Wash ington pursued their Inquiries with evident haste all day yesterday and the signs are many that the crisis Is soon to come. Rumors of action by the grand Jury and of Impending arrests were heard In the hotel corridors and wherever politicians gathered and talked of the postofflce mat ters, the political Importance of which they recognise fully. The federal grand Jury for the June term Is to meet on Friday, and rumor has It that various charges affecting the postofflce will be presented to It then. . WASHINGTON. Jt.ne IS. -The chief poat- cmce inspector, Mr. Cochran, today re- turned from New York, where he went In connection with the Investigation of post office affairs. The omcla:s refuse to disclose the na ture of his mission, but say that the pub lished reasons for his trip are not correct Inspectors were busy today In the office of the assistant attorney general for the Post office department, continuing the overhaul ing of the records. It Is probable that one of the' ultimate reeults of the Investigation will be the abolishment of the office ot the postofflce physician on the ground that there Is no authority In law for the employment of such an officer. Their employment at Washington and New York already has at. traded attention. There are five postofflces In the country where physicians are car ried on the rolls. The office of phyrlclan was abolished in Washington some lime ago. The cities where postofflce physicians are now employed are New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Boston.

The United Mfne Workers' convention, called for the purpose of taking action qn the refusal of operatora to recognise District Presidents Fahey, Nichols and Dettry as the miners' representatives on the conciliation board, was called to order here today. President Mitchell, who was unanimously chosen chairman. In addressing the con vention, said: It la needleas to say that the refusal cf the mine cwners to live up to the award of the strike commission is a decided dis appointment to me. We Intend to live up to every letter of the award, and, therefore, , it Is not un reasonable for us to expect the other side to live up to it. It is a grave question which Confronts us. The time is here when we must again decide upon a spe clflo policy toward our employers. 1 might say, for myself, that I am hopeful we may find an honorable way out of the calamity. The commission's award was not a great financial victory for ua, but It was a great moral victory. We can afford to bear our disappointment and live ap to the sward. Lynching Is Feared. CINCINNATI.
