Having represented uus state of affairs to the cabinet, after a long discussion the decision above noted waa reached and the office will not be re-opened until the people in the district are ready to accept this woman as their postmaster. , " ' - iin.inn tVim af tArnrviTi tha President discussed with several members of the cabinet other features or . tna ease oi Mrs. Cox, Postmaster General rayne beine in conference with the President for an hour or more. It was decided. finally, to issue a formal statement concerning the Indianoia case. Secre tary Cortelyou, for the President, made public the following: - : Presldist's Statement. ? "The postmaster at Indianoia, Miss., 1s Mrs. Minnie M Cox, a colored woman, t She i served three years as postmaster under President Harrison. When President McKinley came ia she was again appointed in 1897, near ly six years ago.- Her character and standing, in the community are en dorsed by the best and most reputable people in the town. Among those on her bond ia the present Demoer tie State senator from the district to gether with the leading banker of In dianoia, and an ex-State senator from the district also a Democrat Tbe post master and her husband own from ten to" fifteen thousand dollars worth of property in Sunflower county. : Toe reports of postoffiee inspectors, who have investigated the office from time to time show that she has given the utmost satisfaction to all the patrons of the office, that she Is at all times courteous, faithful, competent and honest in the discharge of her duties. Her moral standing in the communi ty is of the highest Her reputation is of the beat : Few offices of this grade in any State are conducted better. Resirsstloa Was Forced "The postmaster recently forwarded her resignation to take effect on Jan uary 1st but the report of inspectors and 'information received from vari ous reputable white citizens of the town in the neighborhood, show that the resignation was forced by a brutal and lawless element purely upon the ground oi uer color and was obtained under, terror of threats or physical violence. ' The mayor of the town and the sheriff of the county both told tbe . postoffiee inspector that if she refused to resign they ' could not be answerable for her safety, although at the srme- time no word was said against her management of the office. On January 1st the bondsmen of the postmaster telegraphed that the post office was closed, thai the postmaster claimed that her resignation - was in the President's hands to take -effect January 1st, and there had been no advice of tbe appointment of her sue ceasor. The telegram closed with this statement: 'Prompt action necessary for relief of business interests.' ; - - - A Fbrraat Oatrare. "In the view of the President the re lief of the business interests, which are being injured solely by the action of the lawless element of the town, is wholly secondary to the preservation of law and the assertion of the funda mental principle that this government will not connive at or tolerate wronar and outrage of such flagrant charac ter. ' : - -. By direction of the President the following telegram was sent by the postmaster general to the bondsmen: . " -The postmasters resignation has been received, but not accepted. In view "or the fact that the office at Indianoia is closed, all mail addressed to that office will be forwarded to Greenville.' V: -- . - . ' "The papers in the case have been sent to the attorney general for ac tion." TBE ARBITRATION PROPOSAL.
