THEY HANDLE THE MAILS.
Mail Clerks Change the Date Of
Their Meetings.


The Railway Mail Clerks association,
of the Tenth division, held its regular
monthly session yesterday. There were
thiTty-three postal clerks in attendance,
and good meeting was held. 1t was
thought better to hold the meetings
quarterly instead of monthly, and to
change the time of meeting from after
noon to Z 30 III the evening, and to meet
alternately in St. Paul and Minneapolis
instead OF at st. Paul all the time as
heretofore. Another change Is to charge
annual dues of 81 per member in addi-
ton to the assessments. 1t was de-
terminei to send legislative commit
tee to Washington for the regular term
of congress-. The next meeting will be
the first Friday in October.
Matters relative to the late meeting of
national association in this city were
discussed. Letters were read from the
postmaster general, X. &. Jackson. SUI
perintendent of the Eleventh division;
Hon. o. Nj. Hall, and other prominent
personages, regretting their inability to
attend tile national organization.
