proper destination This frequent recurrence IS
evidently attributable the defective system Of the
transmission Of money through the poSt-ohiee Even
under the registry law whert the only safeguard IN
the transmission OF valuable letter waSFhe public
announcement to the mairObber that cf.ai the let
tiers of which he could rob the mail, ;the letters
marked rr'.1l' were those which he should take,
even under this semblance Of protection, there was
NO security for the safe delivery ofthe am?unt trans
