Growth Of the Postal Service.
GREAT INCKEAsE OF MAIL MATTER AND THE COST OF
HANDLING H-A DEFICIENCY OF FoUR MILLION
DOLLARS
1t Is estimated at the Post once Department
that the deficiency In the revenues of the postal
service for the fiscal year Just closed will be about
100000. Last year the deficiency was some
thing over $5,5OO,OO0. Owing to the cheap rates
OF postage, especially for newspapers, the bulk
OF mail matter has increased at such rate that
The force OF employees, especially in the large
ofices, is taxed TO handle the quantity OF matter
that daily comes pouring In. In some instances
the newspapers are not sent to the Post once at
all, but are weighed and stamped at the once OF
publication BY some one authorized TO do the
work, and the bags are sent directly to the rail-
road depotS II this were not done, It is stated
that some OF the large poSt-Ofnces would be over
whelmed, and that 1t would be impossible to
handle all the matter with any dispatch or accu-
racy. 1t Is thought by the P0St-Ofhce 0niciais
that the statistics for the year Just ended will
show q large increase In the number Of letters
mailed. At present Englandis the greatest letter.
writing nation In the world. The annual ratio OF
increase In this class OF man matter Ia much
greater In this country than In England, and II
the present rate continues, In o few years the
United States viii stand Rt the head as writing
more letters per capita than any other nation.
The bulk OF mail matter, or the number OF pieces
handled by the United States Postal Service is
now greater than any other country, but this Is
mainly due 70 the extensive circulation or the
newspapers
