GEN. cLARKsoN SPEAKS,
And Tells Some Interesting Truths
About the Postal Service.

WAsHISGroS, March 25
Gen. Clarkson, first assistant postmaster
general. was questioned today concerning
the criticism against his policy in the appor
tionment of fourth-class postmasters. He
said practically all changes have been made
for other than political reasons. A large
number of the appointments made during
the last administration were notoriously bad
A considerable number were found deln-
quent in their accounts Other changes
were made to secure better locations for
offices. In many cases the appointment
was made with a view TO the removal of
offices from the vicinity of saloons. In
every ease the removal has had good and
sufficient cause therefor. perhaps" he
added. lit is not generally known tina. my
predecessor has, within n month or six
weeks prior to the 4th of March, made over
thousand appointments of fourth class
postmasters for the purpose of apparently
forcing them upon this administration. This
coure was never pursued 70 my knO sledge
by any previous administration. Commits
sions of thousand appoir tees of my pre-
decessors were withheld. These vacancies
with others are now being filed as rapidly as
possible"

PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE
RI quired OF All Desiring to Enter the
Steamboat Inspection Service.

Secretary Window has received large
number OF applications for appointments to
the steamboat inspection service. many be-
ing from persons who seem ignorant of the
qualifications necessary. He has prepared a
letter specifying the necessary legal qualifi
cations necessary. Supervising inspectors
require long experience as masters, pilots
or engineers of steam vessels, or can be per
sons eminent in the designing and construc-
ton of the same. Such persons should have
held first class United States license as
master, pilot or engineer, at least five years
Local inspectors of hulls, on the sea coast
should be navigators themselves. At inland
ports, either masters or pilots of inland
steamers are eligible. Local inspectors of
boilers must be practical marine engineers.
Local inspectors of huls or boilers are re-
quired to have held first class United States
license three years. Assistant inspectors of
hulls or boilers are required to have had
three years practical experience.
