Some idea OF The magnitude OF the
postal service may, according 10 the Chi.
cago Mail, be- gathered from the fact that
the combined length Of the railway postal
routes OF the country Is l4i,557 miles,
while ihr, transportation Of mails on
those routes in 1899 reached the enor.
nous total of ls8, ,274,3sI miles. Ger
many, whIch comes next, only has 24,-
522 miles, and total transpoi taiion OF
81, ,267 900 miles per aDnum. Bat while
our railway service is one OF great nagnl'
tude, there are the star route and steam
boat services, which extend over 25l 1872
miles, with total annual TRANSFORMATION
Of over I2,0J0,0oJ miles. TO carry on
successfully this immense service re-
auires the work of $1,000 persons. The
postal correspondence OF this conntry
with foreign lands falls little below that
OF Germany. OF the 90,0o0,o01 pieces
