THE CANADIAN POSTOFFICES.

OTTAWA, Ont. Special Telegram, Feb. H.
Postmaster General CARING laid on the table Of
the house this evening the annual report Of his
department.. Mail travel has been increased by
about one million and half miles. The con-
veniences or remitt1ng by money orders has been
extended between Canada and other countries
There was q general increase Of business both
domestic and foreign. The report states that
bank can be be established In Manitoba. The
expenditure was upward Of half II million more
than revenue. The postmaster general states
that as regards letter passing between the
would, no doubt be acceptable to Canada but
he was OF the opinion that doubling the rate on
newspaper matter would exclude from the news
paper post many classes OF matter now included
therein. The registration fees would have to be
reduced to 10 cents and drop letters to two
cents. All these changes would be necessary to
harmonic the Canadian with the United States
rates, and would not be satisfactory to the
public OF this country.

The news Of Gen Gordon's death, and Of the
hideous massacre Of all persons in Khartoum
who were suspected of any friendship for the

greatest martial prepar stions that this gener-
alton has seen operate to distract the public
mind from Drooding overmuch on the tragic
