Sympathy for the Letter. Carriers.

A New York letter says It looks as if there was some fire in the vicinity of the Post-Off rumpus, and many em- ployees have come forward to corroborate what has been published about letter carriers being worked to death, and say they know of cases where men who have families to support are literally dying by inches because they arc afraid to plead sickness less they should be dismissed om the service.
 They say there is no allowance made for sickness. They claim that no matter how faithful a carrier has proved, or how many years he has worked, sick ness is no excuse for failing to appear. For a carrier, no matter how long he is in the service, to get sick they say means to lose his situation. 'I know of an old soldier who is dying on his feet as he goes about at his work. He is not fit to work, and few weeks rest might save his life, but he is afraid to give up, for he has a family to support and cannot face the possibility of being thrown out of work. He has been so long a carrier that he thinks he would be disqualified for any other work now, so he holds on. Now if there was provision made for cases of this kind, it would surely be only carving out the spirit of the laws. Any man. no matter how strong, is liable to be attacked with sickness and it IS surely unfair to the carriers and to the public if, when good man falls sick, he loses his place, which is bound to be filled by a man with less experience"

 The employees of the St. Louis Transfer Company joined the strikers Tuesday, and no freight trains can now be brought across the river in any way Several freight trains were started on the Missouri Pacific and Iron Mountain roads. The strikers in East St. Louis were less turbulent Two trains on the Missouri Pacific were wrecked. A striker was shot by policeman in Kansas City.
 The condition of 1eneral Master Workman Powderly, of the Knights of Labor. is now considered precarlous, and his physicians have prohibited his being disturbed by a'y one, no matter for what purpose. The at tack of quinsy, aggravated by the resnlts of the recent accident an abscess on the back of his neck and his arduous work of the past few days has entirely prostrated him. His con dition is feverish. but his previous regular and temperate life are considered strOug element 5 tow ard his recovery. He is at hh home in Sc, anton
