He Receives the Same Pay as White Men, and
Is More Desirable in Some Respects.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, July 26.-The
Tradesman has instituted IA inquiry with
reference to the value of negro labor in in
dustrial channels in the South. The in
quiries were sent to three hundred leading
Southern manufacturers, representing blast
furnaces. rolling-mills, miscellaneous iron
works, mines, lumber-mills, saw-mills, etc.
Replies were received which represent 9,OOO
negro employees, of whom $500 are skilled.
The averages wages paid common negro la
bor is S1.10 per day, and skilled labor runs
from sl.75 to S2.25 per day. though several
correspondents pay colored puddlers. heat
ers and rollers as high as "a and IS per day.
and many furnaces pay as high as $3.50.
The replies, without a single exception,
show that there is no difference at all be-
tween the pay of w<lRtes and blacks for the
same class Of work. The manufacturers are
practically unanimous in the opinion that,
for common labor in the Southern States,
the negro Is more efficient and useful than
the white. and, without an exception. they
declare themselves we'll satisfied with the
negro In the factory. and announce their
determination TO continue him in his place.

A Letter-Carrier's Claim for Extra Work
Allowed by the Postoffice Department.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, July 26.-The action of the
Postofice Department in allowing the
claim of William Z. Talley, a letter-carrier,
for extra compensation for overwork be-
yond the eight hours which is fixed as a
days work by act of Congress, will be fol-
lowed, it is said, by something like 1000
applications of a similar character. 1t is
reported that there are as many as 1000
letter-carriers who have worked overtime
since the law went into effect, and il is ex-
pected that each and every one of them
will put in claim for additional compen-
sation.
The law making eight hours days work
for letter-carriers went into effect May q.
1884. 1t specifically stated that IF any
letter-carrier is employed a greater number
of hours per day than eight he shall be paid
extra for the same in proportion to
the salary now fixed by law" In
the House an amendment was tackled
on authorizing the Postmaster-general to
make the necessary regulations to carry
out the law. This was stricken out by the
Senate. When the law went into effect the
carriers in this city were informed that they
would be paid for all overtime. None saw
fit to make application for the extra ccm-
pensation until William c. Talley filed
claim for overtime made from May 26, 1888,
to Oct. 81. 1888. the date on which he was
dismissed from the service. On Jan. %.
1880, ID. w. Classic an attorney of this
city, filed the claim before Postmaster Ross,
by whom it was referred TO the depart
ment. After considerable delay and much
Investigation, Tailey established a claim
for 224 extra hours, worked within the
dates named. Tiis was finally allowed.
and on the Goth inst. he was paid S45.sS;
which he will at once file before the depart
ment. This application Is said to be the
first prosecuted 20 success, the difficulty
having been in .le fact that the law
did not provide ary machinery for its exc
cutiOn,
