POSTAL POINTS.

The Report of the Third ? assistant Post
master General
WASHINGTON, November 16.-The annual
report of the third assistant postmaster
general shows that the total cost of the pos
tai service for the last fiscal year Inclusive
of the amount earned by the subsidized Pa
cific road companies for mail transporta-
tion) was So, 10000; the postal and money
order receipts amounted to So, 695, I76,
leaving deficiency of 50, 43O, S2S. This de-
hciency is owing mainly, 1t Is said, to the
great extension of the free delivery service
and the increase Of railway mail transpOr-
tatiOn.
The total number Of pieces of registered
matter transmitted during the year was 49,
677, 169, and of special delivery matter ,437, -
400. The total number OF articles of the
various kinds of stamped paper omitted was
2.7OO, 625, 40, representing $50, 626, 32I. Sta
tistics are given showing that IN the cheap
ness Of postage, the number of pOstOfices,
le1tent of mail routes, miles of service per
formed, postal revenues and postal expendi-
ture, and number of letters and other pieces
of mail matter transmitted in the mails,
the United States, IS now cOuspicuOusly
ahead of every other nation IN the world.
The statistics of letters, ETC., transmitted
during the year, which are the first accurate
statistics of the character ever published by
the department, are as follows:
Letters mailed, 1,769, 800, 600; postal cards
mailed, 80, 900; newspapers and period
icals mailed, 1861, OOO, coo; pieces of third
and fourth class matter, So, 900; total,
3,57S, OOO.O 600,
The third assistant recommends that in
some of the larger cities the pneumatic
tube or some equivalent underground sys-
tenn of transporting the mails be adopted:
that the present contract for letter sheet
envelopes be rescinCed, and that as a sub
stitute for the franking privilege members
of congress have an annual allowance of
money for the purchase of postage stamps,
with which to pay postage on speeches and
other official matter sent IN the mails.

A SERIOUS CONDITIoN.

knights Of Labor Bankrupt and Without
Confidence In the Order.
INDIANAPOLIS, November 16.-The greatest
labor organization ever founded is bank
rupt. The last two days developments were
sensational in the extreme. The seeding
Knights are in high glee, and are making
the widest predictions. The reports Of the
general officers more than substantiate the
claims made by the opponents Of POwderly's
administration. They verify the statement
made several months ago to the effect that
stampede to get out of the order was in
progress which, unless speedily checked,
would result IN bankruptcy and dismember-
ment. The disclosures have cast damper
over the spirits of the most enthusiastic dele
gates, and in a daZed sort of way they are
trying to locate the blame. Figures often
speak more elOquently than words, and IN
the report of General Treasurer Frederick
Turner they tell the story of the startling
decline Of the Knights of Labor. The an
nuaI report was made public against the
energetic protests of many delegates who
still cling fOndly to the dalusiOn that some
thing Is to be gained by the suppression of
th9 true state of affairs. The general officers,
realizing that 1t was impossible to keep the
report a secret, owing the presence in the
assembly OF delegates pledged to work for
the overthrow of the present administration
wisely concluded TO make the report public.
AS these dispatches have previously shown
the treasury is empty and debts are still IN
paid.
There is a well authenticated rumor that
the expenses of the convention are being
paid from the educational fund, the only
available assets at the command of the
board. year ago the board expended ST.
ABB in cash as the expenses of the Mime
npO1s convention. Money was quite plenty
a year ago. Since then the special defense
fund, which was raised for the specific pur-
pose of aiding and supporting strikes, has
been appropriated and expended. The ed
ucational fund has probably met the same
fate.
The delegates talk openly about selling
the Broad street palace of Poverty" as
the Philadelphia headquarters is called. 1t
IS supposed to be worth S47, GOO, but went
begging few years ago at $50, 600. The
Cannelberg mine, upon which S23. 900 has
been expended, is on the market at 81, 200.
The entire assets of the Knights of Labor
probably amount to $1,000 and there is a
wonderful amount of cohesive power in
this sum. 1t is safe to say that the ship
will not be deserted as long as any OF it re-
mains.

CHICAGO, November 16.-Miss Francis E.
Willard, president of the national WOmaa's
Christian Temperance Union writes to the
Associated Press that she desires it to be
known that the statements so generally
made In the religious and secular press, to
the effect that the w. @. 4. O., requires its
members to lend their influence to the pro-
hibitiOn party, or if they do not, declare
them dislOyal, is totally incorrect. Mem
bers are left free to their political affili-
atoms, and a resolution to the contrary
was voted down without debate at the recent
New York convention. The large majority
believes in the prohibition party and so
declared by resolutions, but the minority Is
free to dissent and has always been.

den to revise his figures and increase GoR's
majority for governor from 76 to 302. The
recount in Fayette county gave him an in
crease of 100. and the authentic returns
from Mcdowell make the other difference.
Owing 10 the recount the figures are still
subject to revision. The later returns give
McGinn, representative for congress in the
Third district, thirty-fve majority. The
democratic state committee still claims
Fleming's election as governor by so or
300, but furnishes no figures.

Of the strike on the NOstrand avenue and
Green Point and Lorimer street car lines in
Brooklyn developed itself this morning.
At 1870 a car was started from the peniten-
tiary, near Prospect Park, on the Lee avenue
line Twelve mounted policemen and a
patrol wagon escorted 1t, but no Obstruc-
ton was met until Myrtle avenue was
reached. Here a crowd of strikers had con-
gregated and stones and bricks by the doz-
ems were hurled at the car. The police
charged the mob, and after lively fight,
dispersed the rioters and made six arrests.
The attempt to run the car over the entire
route was abandoned.
