POOR MAIL SERVICE.
The Morning News Opinion Quoted in
the Halls of Congress

WASHINGTON, May 24.--The House, to
day went into committee of the whole, with
Mr.. Turner, of Georgia, in the chair, on the
post office appropriation bill On motion
of Mr.. Blount. of Georgia, the appropri-
alton for the mail messenger service was in
creased from 5000, 900 to $3.50, 900.
Mr.. Perkins, of Kansas, in speaking to a
verbal amendment, again entered the com
plant of the people of the West against the
inefficient mail service. which. he asserted,
was now being given that section. The
complaint, no said, was not n partisan one,
nor confined to the people of the West. In
proof of this he read extracts from news
papers of various politics, protesting against
the administration Of tho Post Office Depart
ment. From the SAVANNAH MORNING
NEWS he quoted an extract to the effect
that it had to confess the fact that the mail
service of the Republican administration in
that part of the country had been much
better than that which the Democratic ad-
nlnistration had given them.
Mr.. Blount suggested that newspaper at
tackS were common TO all administrations,
and declared that the Democratic adminis-
tretion had been freor from attacks than
any Republican administration.
OTHERS CRITICIsE.
Several other Republican members from
Western States joined Mr. Perkins in
criticising the administration Of the Post
Office Department for failure to extend the
mail service as fast as the development of
the country demanded.
A desultory discussion upon the question
Of subsidies and free ships, was brought
about by Mr.. Dingley, of Maine, with a
criticism as to the compensation which was
allowed to American steamships for carry
ing foreign mails.
The committee rose, and without further
amendment the bill was passed.

BOSS PLATT IS KING.
All the Republican Senators Bend ths
Knee to Him.


WASHINGTON, May "a. - Ex-senator
Thomas G. Platt, Of New York, received
more attention when he visited the Senate
to-day than he ever did before in the cham
ber. Men who would hardly have spoken
to him when he was a Senator we're eager
to talk with the boss Of the Republican
party Of New York and the head of its dele
cation to Chicago Senators Sherman, Ale
lison, Hawley, and all the others who have
been mentioned in connection with the
Presidential nomination, shook his hand
and whispered in his ear. Senator Hiscock,
whom he sent to the Senate, was with hint
almost constantly, but all the Others
managed to got word or two with
him. AIr. Platt is for Mr.. Blaine now anc
will cast most, If not all tue New York
votes for him, but he Is also looking around
for second choice in case Mr. Blaine cam
not be nominated lie is disposed TO think
Chauncey NJ. Depew would do, but does not
feel sure. Tho first qualification OF Mr..
Platt's candidate must DO strength sutii-
cient TO make his election probable. His
second requirement Is that his candidate
should promise him the patronage OF New
York State If elected -.
Mr. Platt spent the whole evening with
Mr. Hiscock 1t is now believed that he
will make Hiscock his second choice. ALI
the Blaine men seem to be looking around
