Result of an Investleatlon f the New Orleans PortoffleeGreat Inefficiency and IrreitnlarltT-X aoatmaaejra son .Cftareed with Ntealtns Itwera. fBy Telegraph to the Morning Star.l -. w 4 mrrvn-ww A no-nst ,' 7. The sDecial commission -which has been investigating the condition and management of the New , Orleans postofflce submitted its report to the Postmaster General to-day. y Commis sioners Burt, Dice and Abels say in the re port that they -found the facilities of the office ample, but the ,for$e-;eniploycd in efficient through lack ot proper training., Organization or discipline, they say, does not exiss in the office, nor does any system yof promotion based upon individual merit, and they add that they found every thing ' arranged apparently more for the personal convenience of clerks than for the necesai tio nf hnsinpjw. " Thev sav that the post master possesses little or no knowledge of j the actual wotk of the office, ana xtax ne makes little or no : effort to inform himself of the necessities of the , service: rarely visiting the working floor and seldom con- " suiting with his subordinates ;also,that while too much ought not to be expected -.of the - assistant postmaster, in view of his com paratively recent appointment, yet they feci constrained to say that his selection for ' the place was unwise, because of his infe rior judgment, lack of discretion and ina bility to maintain discipline. They say, further, that they found the mailing divis .ion without organization or discipline; mail matter, especially newspapers, being badly handled and delayed. That -they found that no accounts had been kept of mail sacks, which latter in many cases were be ing unlawfully used by persons other than employes; they (the commissioners) having -i found 140 of them in iunk- shops, and oth- ' ers used as cotton packages - or made into - hammocks. They express the opinion lhat the want of energy orr the part of the chief " of this division is in part owing to the j ittilure of his superiors to support him. r They say, also, that the office of the, col . lection clerk, with a salary of $900, has j ' been held for some time -past . by Qeo. W. Merchant, son of the postmaster, who has rendered very little service, his work hav ing been done , by the cashier, and they auu Ul!b 11113 uiuw la cuuicij uuucwbwj add should be abolished. They report hav ing found an employee carried on the rolls - as "porter detailed as detective," who ren - deretl no service himself, but who had i hired an old colored man at $3 per month to do" a little sweeping, that being the service which ' called .'for the . employ" , raent of a porter; and they recommend : that this office as well as that of cnier porter De aooiisnea. Jtney aiso i recommend that the title of the i official now known as "Secretary and Au- ditor" be changed to . Official Secretary, i and that the salary of the office be reduced from $1,500 to $1,200 per annum. They recommend increase in the salaries of cer tain clerks aggregating $1,100 per annum, and a reduction aggregating $2,450. They also report having made inquiries relative to depredations on the mails, at this office, i and the failure of the postmaster to report tbem; and say with respect to this branch - of their investigation that it was found .that just before their visit fifteen letters addressed to ML A. Dauphin had been ab stracted from the mails in the office, nader such circumstances as point conclusively to the son of the postmaster as the person who stole them. When the facts were re ported to the postmaster he obtained pos- - session of and burned certain fragments of missing letters, and thereby destroyed im portant evidence against the guilty person; but that he afterwards promised to exclude his son permanently from the office."
