An Effort TO Have All Federal Officers Paid
by Salaries.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.--An effort will be
made by number Of democratio repre-
sentativeB to have the appropriations COM
mittee recommend that the fee system in
federal Offices be abolished as far as can
we'll be done. Congressman, especially In
the south. urge that the continuance Of the
fee system results in much hardship TO the
people in their states through, deputy mar
shais and other court officers straininR the
laws for the purpose of inaking cases in the
court, and thereby increasing the emolu-
ments Of their Offices. It is urged that the
government would really save a great deal
OF money BY paying, salaries to necessary
employees in fee Offices, and requiring all
fees TO be turned into the United states
treasury. Vigorous opposition, however, ia
expected to this reform and the appropria-
tions committee has not yet got to work, so
1t is uncertain what will BE- the out
come. Ono of the attempts to do
away with perquisites in federal offices
is: of considerable interest to numerous
postmasters Of the first class throughout
the country. AT present stamped envelopes

sentative O'Neill ,iof Missouri, who intends
to urge congress- to change this practice
says the result is a considerable profit to the
postmasters in receipt Of regular fired SAL
aries. He will urge that hereafter stamped
envelopes be furnished at cost in five cent
lots (price of stamp not included. The
government. he says, should not make a
profit on these and other conveniences il
furnishes the people, but should give them
at cost whenever practicable, and any pro-
fits arising should not go to salaried officers.

a Big Purse for Division Among the
New England BIakes.
New HAVEN, Conn.,. Jan. 10.-Some of the
heirs of Francis and Elizabeth Blake, in this
city, Bridgeport Derby and Boston, expect
to be sharers in fortune of about $50 ,0OO,-
600. Francis Blake, the direct heir Of per-
son who died IN England more than 100 years
ago, could not be found. The property
reverted to another branch of the Blake
family, and was held by it for eleven years.
when the court decided that the property
was in wrong hands. 1t was found that
Francis lake had settled in Southern New
ldalll se. tn is said that he founded
EfancissoWn there. Traces Of the family
have been found in this state to support
the theory that Francis may have
come here subsequently. There
are records in the town of Derby of land
transactions by some of his descendants.
There is in Bridgeport record of the death
of Francis Blake's widow. The property is
held in England by an attorney named
Gum for the rightful claimants. Rufus
and Charles Blake, of Bridgeport, and Al
fred, of Fair Haven, have obtained proof
that they are direct descendants of Francis
and Elizabeth Blake. An impediment has
been met in the Boston search in the fact
that the records antedating 1929 have been
sent to Washington for use in the French
spolation claims cases. Among others in
terested in the division of the fortune are
Elmere S. Tyrrell OF No. $50 Elm street.

day of mourning at Grebs. The funerals

been recovered we're held this morning.
Thirty y-seven bodies were buried. The

by PLAIN headstonas OF wood with ths
names and ages Of the victims painted on
them. The unidentified were placed in
graves by numbers, the clothes found upon
them and the contents of their pockets
being retained by the mining officials for
the purpose of future Identification.
Death added three more victims to the
list to-day, making total of fifty-eight, A
canvass among the physicians attending
the injured discloses the fact that seven
teen of the injured are likely to die within
the next twenty four hours. The rescuing
parties discontinued their work at noon to-
day. They were satisfied there we're no
more bodies buried in the debris and none
confined within the chambers of the mine.
The joint committee of miners and Off
cials will begin tomorrow an inquiry into
the cause of the disaster.
