IMPORTANT CHANGES.

The Post Office Department Considering
an Extension of the Money Order Sys-
tenn
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-At a meeting
of post Office inspectors held here the
subject of money order and register
systems were discussed at length. II
the recommendation made to the
acknowledgements and the legislation
asked of congress is granted, it is be-
lieved that there will be some radical
changes in the methods of conducting
postal business in the United States
Some very marked changes are recon-
merded in the working in the money
order system. These contemplate the
issuing of money orders for any amount
upon all frst-class offices; maximum
order of $500 in second-ciass offices, $500
in third-class offices and 500 in fourth.
class Offices For money orders of S5e
or less-those which the working classes
use-a reduction in the fee will be rec
commended to a figure two or three
cents less than that now charged by
express companies for the same amount
Another important change recon-
mended will be to keep money-order
offices open a certain mum Der of nights
a week to an hour later than $3.50. In
the registry business it is proposed tc
change the present method OF dispatch
ing registered letters from post offices
by substituting linen-lined envelope
with 12-cent stamp upon it for this
special purpose. Instructions will be
printed on the envelope and they car
be mailed at any letter box without
necessitating the sender going in per
son to the post Office, as is now required
by the postal regulations.

Uprising in Northern China-Christians
Massacred and a station Plundered.
PARIS. Nov. GA dispatch has been
received here from Pekin which con-
firms the statement that armed bands
have devastated a whole district in the
northern part of China and that they
have pillaged and burned the Belgian
missions
In addition to the destruction to the
mission stations at Tayou and Sanchi,
where over 100 converted natives were
massacred by the bloodthirsty bands,
the station at Cabot was sacked and
burned. The priest in charge of the
mission, Belgian by birth, was killed
by tie mob and several other Christians
were also massacred.
The natives had heretofore been
quiet and there was no sign in the least
that the revolt was meditated. The
local authorities therefore had taken
no steps to suppress any outbreak, and
when the natives rose they met with
no material opposition, for the people
were practically helpless
1t may be stated that the local gov
ernor has reported the occurrence to
the Pekin government He does not
place the blame upon the natives of
the province, but attaches the respon-
sibilitY OF the crime to bands of Mon
golian robbers who, he says, made a
raid through the district
