New Postal Rulings.

The following rulings nave Deen profnulgat-
ed by the Postmaster-Gereral: In case a num-
Der OF letters are found in letter box wholly
unpaid by stamps affixed, and also there be
found sum of money, but not sufficient to
pay one full rate on all the aforesaid letters,
they should be returned to tie writer's, if
KNOWN together with the money. If this can
not be done. they should be sent to the Dead
Letter Office. The following new ruling vii
be of interest to Guiteau. 1t was partly
brought about by the circumstances attending
the matter mailed to that miscreant: Letters
addressed to a convict serving a term of inn
prisonment should be addressed to the warden
or other officer in charge of the prisoners.
await trial upon Indictment or pending
indictment should be delivered &C
cording to the order of the person adj
dressed at any time before conviction and SEN
tence. If such a person was released on bail
no question would arise, and, as the law pre-
sumes every person to be innocent until con-
victed by a jury, the inability to give bail
ought not to deprive him of the right to con-
troll the correspondence addressed to him
through the mail until after sentence; there
fore the letters must be subject to the order of
the person imprisoned, unless upon judicial
procee ding authorizing the seizure of letters in
accordance with the decision of the Supreme
Court of the United States, ex parte Jackson,
6 Otto, 621. Further orders still are that any
inscription, any word or words whatever on
the face of postal card, except the address,
will prevent the transmissa of the same, and
will be sent to the Dead Letter Office

The Life Saving serpics.

Mr.. Kimball, superintendent of the Life
Saving Station Service, returned to Washing
ton yesterday morning from personal exami-
nation of tho New England coast, where he
has been with view of selecting sites for four
new life saving stations, authorized 10 be es-
tablished by the last Congress. The appropri-
alton was made in bulk, and Mr.. Kimball
hopes that there WILDE enough to erect four
new stations. He has decided upon the sites
for two of them-one at Peaked Hill Bars,
Cape Cod, the other at Muskegon Island, off
Nantucket Peaked Hill Bars is regarded by
the life saving authorities as one of the most
dangerous points on the coast. 1t is at that
point where the Peruvian and the Giovanni
were wrecked. One station will probably be
erected on the coast of Maine, at a point not
yet definitely determined. Damariscove Is
land was examined, and there are great many
arguments in favor of that site. 1t is place
where great many fishermen seek refuge
from storms, and as many as $50 sail are some
times seen at one time in that harbor.
