of very valuable land in California. The de-
cision was based on the existence Of stipend

The House Post Office Committee has agreed
upon an amendment to the Post Office Appro-
PriatiOn bill authorizing the Department to use
every quarters revenue for the payment of
transportation expenses only, without waiting
for the enactment Of special law, or the am,
nual appropriation bill, leaving for Congress
the existing supervision over the salaries Of the
officers, DC =, and the deficit to be pad out Of
