Cleveland's Force of Servants and
Their Duties.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 20.-The. employees
at the White house are delighted with the
change in administration. The new presi-
dent is much more regular in his habits
than the old one was. 1t was no unusual
thing for President Arthur to have his
meals two or three hours later on one day
than on the preceding day, or vice versa.
On the contrary, President Cleveland is
very regular in his habits in this respect,
and is therefore in high favor with the
monarchs of the kitchen. "A colored man
is steward of the White house at a
salary of $1,000 per annunl, and the
cook is paid similar amount.
The other servants arg paid at the.
rate of $1.25 a day, and al the help are col
ored persons, even to the boy who dusts
and sweeps the parlors. On state occa-
sions or for large reception the corps OF
assistants to the cooks is increased and
men are always employed. There is plenty
of room at the large range for all, and there
is no confusion, no matter what the de-
mand may be. Very little trouble has been
experienced under the change OF admins
tration, and the president has not mani
tested any disapproyal Of the delicate dishes
preparek for him by the cook of his prede-
cessor. Including the steward there are
four servants in the employ OF the presi-
dent, and when there is rush in the laun-
dry the woman in charge has authority to
employ assistants.

POsToFFICE REFORM.
Contract Let for Printing Official
Envelopes.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 20.-Bids for official
envelopes for use in the postoffice depart
ment were opened to-day and contracts will
be let at much lower rates than those al
ready in existence. Last year the contract
was held by P. P. Kellogg and it was dis
covered that some of the envelopes were not
up to the standard quality, the value of the
inferior envelopes being about $500. Kel-
logg said the manufacturers of paper were
supplying him with inferior material. He
offered to make good the $500 and allow
the government to designate the mills from
which he should get his paper 1T he were
allowed to go on with the contract Post
master General Gresham decsied that this
would be condoning a fraud on
the government and annulled
the Kellogg contract and had Eeletting. On
this occasion the standard Ofsquality was
raised and the official envele les were re-
quired to be 90 per cent. beser than the
best quality of stamped envee apes sold by
the government to the public. On account,
in part, of the raising OF the Standard, the
new contract was Let at che rate OF
$34, 600 year more than Fhe Kellogg
contract and it was secured by the Morgan
and Plympston company, Hho, it was
shown had, previous to the Kellogg con-
tract, supplied the government with
envelopes below the standard of quality to
the extent of nearly $4,000. Third Assist
ant Postmaster General Hazen has devoted
considerable time to the problem of reducing
the cost of official envelopes. The result has
been the adoption of manila thslead OF rag
paper, and lighter weight. The result will
be a large saving to the department. On
the basis of the number issued last year the
ordinary official envelopes Would cost, at
the rate of existing contracts $54, 355. On
the bids offered to-day they will cost the
government $40, ,465. The registered pack
age envelopes would cost at present
rates $43, 75O. At the new rates they will
cost $50, ,46S. Both classes at present rates
would cost S9S, 1O5. AT the new rates they
will cost $50, ,943. The saving will really
be greater than that. On account
of the high cost of the envelopes
bought under last summers con-
tract, the envelopes were issued so
sparingly that postmasters have complained
that they could not get the number they
needed. On the basis of the issues in 1883
and 1884, the issues of 1884 and 1885 should
have been about $127. 900. In fact they
were only S9S,OOO The issues next year
therefore will be much larger than those Of
the current year, and this will make the
actual saving under the new and reduced
prices greater than the above figures indi-
cate.
