POST-OFFICE SUNDAY WORK.
A Circular from the Postmaster Gen.
eral.

Postmaster-General Wanamaker has sent the
following circular to the postmasters of one
hundred of the largest post-ofices throughout
the country.
"With the view Of ascertaining the relative
Importance of the receipt and dispatch Of mails
at post-offices, and the delivery therefrom to
the public on Sunday as compared with the
same on the other days of the week, and in
order to reduce the work on that day, if it shall
be found to be practicable and proper, I will
thank you to carefully collect information on
the following points as applied to Sundays in
the coming month of June, and make report
thereon in detail to me, to-wit:
Il. The amount of postage stamps, postal
cards, ne wspaper wrappers, &C., sold at your
office on each Sunday in June. q The number
OF callers at your post-office on each Sunday in
June. 8. The nYmber of mails dispatched and
| received on each Sunday in June, and the ap-
proxlmate extent of such mails. 4. The num-
Der of letter-carrier collections, the approxi-
mate extent of the mail matter collected, and
| the hours at which the several collections were
| made. 5. The number of employees on duty
| each Sunday and the hours Of service Of each.
II shall also esteem it a favor if you will sub
init to me, with these replies, any suggestions
| which may occur to you, after careful thought,
as to the means and the mode Of reducing Sum
day work in post-ofices."
The information elected by this circular will
be tabulated and laid before the Postmaster
General for his consideration. ANY action that
| may be deemed advisable will be announced in
| future order. Mr. Wanamaker is not certain
that any modification may be made in the pres
ent system
One of his first official acts upon taking
charge of the Post-Office department was to
issue an order prohibiting employees from
coming to the department on Sunday. This
order Is rigidly enforced.

THE ADJUTANT-GENER
Secretary Proctor Considering the Ques-
tion Of Gen. Drums Successor.


Secretary Proctor returned to the city this
morning from Rutland, VT, his sons health be-
ing much improved. he went to the War de-
partment early, and about the first thing he
did was to call for all the papers in the case Of
the vacant adjutant-generalship, thus indicat-
ing that the matter will receive early attention
at the White House. Col. Kelton has been act
ing as acknowledgement for a week. Opinions
are growing more pronounced in his favor
and the general idea is that the Whipple
boom has spent itself, and that the strong
opposition 1t met from the ranks of army off,
GERS has virtually broken its back. 1t has been
learned that the health Of Col. Robert Will
liams who ranks next to Col. Kelton, il far
better than it has been for years. and his ab-
sence from the field of candidates for the head
of the corps is due solely to regard for the
principles of army promotion and a strong
friendship for Col. Kelton. 1t is understood
that he fully intends to stand up to the front
for the position when Kelton retires in 1892,
after which he will have about year and q
half to serve.
THE sEcRETARYs POSITION.
The word Of Secretary Proctor, it is thought,
will have good deal Of weight in the decision
Of this question, and his position will have
much to do with his future popularity with the
army. Those who know him describe him as
very conservative man, and if he follows out
this characteristic he will be rather likely to 20
on the line of long-continued custom and defer
to the rights of seniority.
APPLICANTS FOR THE VACANCY.
The most difficult end of the question is the
ant adjutant-generalship, for which there are
over fifty applicants. 1t is thought at the War
department that the race lies between Capts
Dougherty and Taylor.

road connections. To accommodate the

cult Court room, the Bar association room, the
grand jury room, and the witness room adjoin-
ing. There were lS9 men and 2s1 women ex-
anined.
OF the men sixty-eight took the clerks and
seventy-one the copyists' examination and Of
the women seven took the clerks and liza the
