The Postal Fight Ended.
COL. SCOTT WINS AND Mr.. GARRETT RI
CFIVES NEW SERVICE.

COL. SCOTT WINS AND Mr.. GARRETT RE-
CE1VES A NEW SERVICE
The Postmaster General had a conference
yesterday afternoon with Thomas X. Sharp.
representing the Baltimore and Potomac
railroad, with reference to the subject of mail
transportation from Washington to New
York, and subsequently, Gov. Jewell sent a
telegram 10 Mr.. Hlnckley, president of the
Il. w. 1t Il. railroad company, requesting
him to hereafter send all postal cars over the
Baltimore and Potomac railroad. He also
sent dispatch TO Col. Scott giving MIN this
information and one TO Mr. Garrett saying:
Hereafter please continue the postal-car
service from the west TO Baltimore. and do
not cut il Off at Washington, as heretofore,
so that the western mails shall be trans
1erred at Baltimore instead of Washington"
subsequently Mr.. Garrett replied, saying
that he would take pleasure in complying
with the Postmaster Generals request, and
that he had issued the requisite orders
Heretofore the western mails have been cut
on AT washington and transferred TO the
postal cars which go out on the Baltimore
and Chic road. If they were still cut off in
Baltimore under the order for carrying the
mails over the Baltimore and Potomac road
IL would necessitate a transfer to the denot
OF the latter. They will now be carried right
TO Baltimore on the postal cars which come
on nom the west.
Thus the contest has ended in A victory
for Col. Scott, who will hereafter carry the
mails both ways between here and New
York, while Dir. Garrett receives a new ser
for his loss of half the service wrested from
him by Col. Scott.
The Postmaster General received a dis
patch from Mr.. Hinckley, president of the
+. w. & b. road, saying that the postal cars
Will hereafter be sent over the Baltimore
and Potomac road as he desires.
COL. SCOTS ANSWER.
The Postmaster General also received the
following dispatch from Col. Scott to-day
u" your telegram announcing that hereafter
the postal cars will run over The baltimore
and Potomac road, was received this morn
ing and is quite satisfactory. Orders will be
gwen to-day to perfect the service between
Washington and New York so as TO avoid
all transfers and give you better time than
The department has ever enjoyed. We shall
in the future as IN the past endeavor to give
You every facility that il may he in the
power OF this company 10 extend. The mail
going north will be placed upon our limited
express at West Philadelphia to-day VIII
you please instruct the post office authorities
at New York that the mails from Washing
ton will be at Jersey City at I O'Clock o. M
IN order that they may be ready to receive
mails. On and after tomorrow morning
they can deliyer Hp TO $40 a. m. New York
tlme, at Jersey City, for movement by our
limited express"
BY the new arrangement the morning
mails from Washington will reach New
York about an hour earlier than under the
Old system.

The Sioux Still Refuse TO Sign.

referred TO the Commissioner OF Indian At
ialrs Tor investigation, and went on to again
explain the position of the government in
regard 10 the hunting privilege in Nebraska.
he SAID that as an additional inducement
ior them TO sign the paper in which they re-
anguish this privilege, ne would pledge the
interior Department anu the President to
use their best efforts to induce Congress to
double the appropriation of $4,000. He also
referred again to the Black Hills country
and the country in Wyoming occupied by
Sioux He said he would appoint a commits
sion 10 go out 10 the Sioux country aud treat
with them in reference TO the Black Hills
and the Big Horn mountain country in Wy
oming.
The Commissioner procured a map and
ting the scale and showing them what pOr-
ton of their country the government desired
them to relinquish.
Spotted Tail seemed unusually animated,
and made pithy speech, saying that As he
and the Secretary prayed TO the same Great
Spirit IL was very singular that Nley should
differ so much. The Indians own the cAun-
try the Great Spirit gave them. and they
never try TO steal the country of any one
else; while the whites, who have a big cOun-
try, still want to steal what little the Indians
have. He closed by saying that it was not
worth while TO discuss the subject of selling
the Black Hills, as their (the Indians) price
price would be too large.
Red Cloud put in as usual his claim for
compensation for horses stolen from them
by the whites, and repeated Spotted Tails
request mat the traders accompanying them
should be reimbursed. The delegation leave
tomorrow. They will probably have a final
talk with Commissioner Smith tonight or
tomorrow morning.
n. B.-Representatives of the press were
admitted TO the council to-day.

miles To the eastward. The vessel revisited
all these points after the transit. and took
aboard the various parties, carrying them TO
Melbourne. Australia, where they sojouTmed
till March ]. She then set sail with them for
nome, touching on the way only at Barba-
does. The Swatara sailed 3, 900 miles during
her voyage according TO log, and approached
within two hundred miles of the Antarctic
polar continent. She brings a quantity OF
Australian animals and botanical specimens
Among the latter there are forty varieties of
fern, one of which is twenty feet high and
TWO feet In diameter. Among the animals is
a small brute with claws like mole and

The WEATHER AND THE CRoPS-The
weather continues exceedingly dry, here
abouts-the dust in the roads and the low
running streams almost rivaling a severe
drought in August, while the wheat. now
within few weeks of harvest, is in many
instances hardly high enough to hide hare.
From present indications the crop of straw
as well as grain will be short-whch is also
true OF the grass. The corn, considering the
season, looks remarkably well. and thus far
has been little troubled by worms. A timely
rain, however, would greatly improve the
latter, and would of course brighten the
prospects OF the former. On, for a refreshing

night last Mr.. Thomas McMahon's coffin
warehouse at $50 Magazine street, was en-
tered by burglars and an assortment of cOf-
fins, about thirty in number. constructed of
mahogany and black walnut, were stolen
the whole worth not less than $500. Mr.

door that she had heard wagon drive up
and stop at the warehouse during the night
but that she paid no attention to il, thinking
that ii was one belonging TO the concern
