Report of the Third Assistant Postmaster
 General.
 Third Assistant Postmaster General Hagen has submitted to the Postmaster General his report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1889. The statement of the financial operations of the postal service shows that the total amount of revenue collected during the last year was S56, ,14S,014. The expenditures out of appro- priations amount to $61 ,376, ,S47. The out standing liabilities at the close of the year are estimated at $1, ,12l ,35l. The total of actual and estimated expenditures out of the apprO- priations is $62, ,49S ,19S. The deficiency in the postal revenue to be supplied out of the gen. eral treasury to meet the expenditures of the year is, therefore, estimated at S6, $50, ,1S3. In addition to the amounts payable out of the appropriations there was certified to the Sec retary of the Treasury for transportation of mails on the Pacific Railroads the sum of $1,253,673. The amount is credited on the books of the Treasury ill account with the companies for Government aid in the con- struction of their lines. This item, added to the expenditures and liabilities on ac- count of the appropriations by Congress, would make the total cost of the ill excess of the revenue. The revenue of the year exceeded that of the previons year in the sum of $3,452,S ,S3S, or 6.6 per cent The increase of expenditures and liabilities was $5,s92 ,465, or 10.4 per cent. over the obligations of the previous year. The statistics of the special delivery system for 1889 show that 1,606, 200 letters were de- livered by special delivery messengers. This was an increase of nearly 12 per cent. over the number delivered during the previous year. The amount paid for messenger ser- vice was $121,9S7. The amount of fees realized for the service amounted to $160 ,520, leaving a surplus to the government of $38 ,532. The number of postage stamps, envelopes. letter sheet envelopes and postal cards issued during the year was 2.S18 ,565 1921 representing total value of 1852 1921 ,7S4. The amount of postage collected on second class matter was $f,6l6,351, representing nearly S1 ,OOO tons of such matter.

Base Ball Notes.

Sam Thompson is trying to sign Burchard, the Mansfield pitcher, for the Philadelphia brotherhood club.
 Nearly all the league clubs have bid for the services of Long, the Kansas City shortstop. It is probable they will draw lots for this player.
 Radbourn is reported to have signed Bos- ton brotherhood contract. Now when he comes up smilingly to draw his $420O salary, won't there be some cringing.
 And now Foreman, the Baltimore pitcher, says he has changed his mind, and will not sign the players contract. He has evidently read that document.
 The prospects of Princeton College next season are very good. All the players of the 'S9 club will be back save BroWnlee and King. Dana. '91, first base, is captain of the nine.
 Five years ago Larry Twitchell, late of the Cleveland league club, but now an enthusias- tic brotherhood leader, was carpenter working for g day. Today hedraws a sal ary of $25O0 for six months work.
 .I'll not drink drop of liquor during the season, and you'll see me playing great ball." said Kelly as he signed the brotherhood con- tract. Same old Mike, same old remark. Kelly rehearses it every year, and never lives up to it.
 "rn manage and captain the brother hood team in Boston next year," says NJ. J. Kelly. He'll do it, too, if he really wants to. He had his own way in the Boston league team, and he'll have 1t in the brotherhood team, if it should materiaiize.
 At meeting in Hartford, last week, Presi- dent Lang of that club gave as the losses for the Atlantic Association last season, the follow ing: Worcester S2SOO; Newark, S50O0; New Haven. $500; Lowell, S400O; Hartford, (capital stock> $43OO.
