Preparing for the New Letter Rate.


WASHINGTON, September 20.-The re-
quisitionS upon the POST Office Department
by postmasters for new wocent stamps are
so large that the contractors are unable to
supply the demand and the Department
consequently is reducing the amounts
called for IN the acquisitions. The con-
tractors at present are able to furnish one
and a half million stamps daily, but this Is
much less than the number demanded.
During the early part Of the present month
the Department distributed a large num-
Der OF old twO-cent stamps among the
smaller post-ollices, yet il is believed that
with the utmost eXertion OF the DEPART
ment fully one third OF the post-offces OF
the country will not have an adequate sup
Div Of stamps upon the date when the law
providing for the new letter rate goes into
operation. The Department officials, how
ever. do not fear any serious obstruction TO
business on that account, as the offices
lacking supplies will be of the smallest
grade, where postmasters, from ignorance
OF the law or neglect, have failed TO for
ward the acquisitions in season.
