Postmaster General wanamaker Issues an
Order for Their Benefit.
Postmaster General wanamaker has issued
the following order:
LAS substitute letter carriers are required to
be in attendance at free delivery Offices (some-
times for year or more) at an annual
salary Of 81 and the pro rata compensa-
ton Of any carrier whose route they may be re-
quired, temporarily, to serve. before an oppor-
tunity occurs for promotion, and as the rein
statement of letter carriers who NAV have vol
unfairly resigned, or been removed for cause,
delays the promotion Of these poorly paid sub
stitutes, reinstatements should, in equity and
good conscience, be reduced to the minimum
it is therefore ordered:
"1st. That the voluntary resignation of letter
carrier shall be a bar to his reinstatement at
any Office where there NAV be a substitute in
the service, and to any class above the 5000
grade.
sgd. A letter carrier will not be removed ex-
cept for violation of the postal laws and regu-
lations, or for some cause affecting injuriously
the efficiency of the service, or his integrity as
q citizen.
I'D. No appointments Of letter carriers at
free-delivery Offices will be made except from
the substitute list, until that list Is exhausted
and promotions from said list shall be in the
order of their seniority"

JUSTICE LAMAR's SUCCESSOR.

ing as Available.

Names That President Harrison 10 Consider
ing as Available.
1t may be stated with authority that Presi-
dent Harrison at present intends to sill the VA
cancy on the Supreme bench caused by the
death Of Justice Lamar. He has
doubts about the confirmation OF his
appointee and wants to make such an
appointment as there will be the least objection
to. First Of all he wants to be sure Of the solid
republican support without reservation. and
besides he expects to select q man
against whom no personal objection can be
raised by the democrats. He has said that
he would like to appoint Attorney General
Miller or Mr.. Spooner Of Wisconsin, but that
the objection would be raised that they are not
from the circuit in which the vacancy exists,
and that. moreover, their confirmationtmight be
more doubtful than that of some other. He is
considering the names of Judge Pardee, Judge
Speer, Judge McHenry and ex-Representative
Goff of West Virginia. While he does not ex-
pect to make such an appointment he is also
considering the possibility of circumstances
making it desirable for him TO appoint q demo-
crat, and in this connection he has in mind the
name of Judge Jackson of Tennessee.
