REFORMS IN THE PosrAL SERVICE.

Washington, oct s.-The order OF Postmastertfen-
eral Wanamaker doing away with the counting of mail

there were less than 700 carriers In the country the

j. S. CLARRSoN,
Chairman OF the Executive Committee.
j. S. FASSETT,
Secretary OF the National Committee.
Mr. Clarkson stated that it had been the in
tention to call the meeting on November 10, but
il was found that nearly one-third of the mem
bers Of the committee had engagements prevent
ing their attendance at that time, and Thanks
giving, which always falls in the last week OF
November, prevented the session Of the COM
mittee in the middle Of that week. so that the
only chance to hold the session of the committee
early enough 10 have the convention in May was
TO have 1t meet on Monday, the 3d. thus giving
the members the opportunity TO return to their
homes in time for Thanksgiving after the session
Of the committee.
