Postal Irregularities Again.

In reply to scurrilous article in the
Times, denying the statement Of Mr.. A.
c. Weary, formerly the Postmaster at
Savannah, about the Irregularities Of
the postal delivery ct that place, Mr..
Weary yesterday called at the HERALD
Office and stated that on the very next
day after his statement in the HERALD,
July 10th, 1884, the Los Angeles news
papers, in q large bundle, plainly
marked in large letters, "Spadra, f" was
thrown off at Savannah, and he saw il
marked "missent." 1t lay over ell day
and disappointed the Spadra subscribers.
The Postmaster at Savannah, Frank
Downs, will also corroborate the state
ment Of Mr.. Yeary.
While Mr.. Weary was stating this fact
In the HERALD Office, Mr.. W. P. Tib-
belts, Of santa Monica, an old subscriber
to the HERALD, came In and said that
during the past winter there were times
when he received no HERALD at that
place by mail for three weeks at time,
although the cars arrived there every
day. The paper was put in the post
Office in Los Angeles on every day Of
publication. Who got away with it,
The writer of the article in the Times
is one Of the postal clerks in whose de-
livery the various postmasters along the
line find the most laundering. His tes-
timeny against . hundred witnesses, all
credible. intelligent gentlemen, will have
little weight with the people. The late
Hon. A. b. Moffitt, Of San Fernando,
while Postmaster at that place, reported
that large portion Of his mail went TO
San Francisco and was afterwards re-
turned to Los Angeles. The Postmaster
Of this city admits that this was the
case. ~. H." had better distribute the
mail along the line than attempt to con-
trovert the statements of our best citi-
Zeus.

the Pacific Express from the East, when
about mile and half this side Of
Whitewater Station. jumped from the
platform OF one Of the cars. The train
was stopped and backed mp to where the
man was lying and he was taken aboard.
An examination showed that his shout
der was badly crushed and, from the
fact that he died shortly after the train
passed Cotton, he must have been
severely injured internally. The re-
mains were brought to this city and

In regard to notice that appeared in

week, about domestic row at 2l0 Tenn
