The most gratifying thing about
the Congressional situation, from a
Democratic point of view, is the un-
animity with which Democratic Sen.
ators and Representatives now in
Washington reply to queries as to
what will be the program of the com
ing session. They all say in sub.
stance: We will wait, since the Pres
ident has made his recommendations /;
we desire whatever is to be done, be
done harmoniously, if possible.
There is little doubt that many Dem
ocrats who have opposed the Presi-
dent, are ready to meet him half way
in any efforts that may be made for
the good Of the party, and if the hot
heads can be kept quiet, there may
be some pleasant surprises for Dem
ocrats.

CARLISLE TO ISSUE BONDS.


WASHINGTON ClTr, Jan. I4-Some de-
cisive action TO replenish the gold reserve
in the treasury will be taken within the
next few weeks. II Ifcongress does not take
kindly to the suggestions offered by Secre-
tary Carlisle IN his annual report and pro-

of maintaining the gold reserve.

ministration is one which is has decided

Wrapping Of Man p.e......

WAsHrssros CRY. Jan. A-rSpecial. j.
The postal administration of Peru has
called the attention of the United States
to the circumstance that packages of
printed matter mailed in other countries
frequently reach Peru with the wrappers
so torn that the addresses are iliegihie and
consequently the packages cannot be de-
iivered. This applies TO articlee sent TO
any foreign country. and in accordance
with this suggestion the superintendent
Of foreign mails has issued instructions to
aii postmasters TO advise the public that
the address of ali packages intended for
foreign countries be written not only on
the wrapper of the package, but also
on the article Itself. so that if the wrapper
shonld be entirely destroyed the article
itself would show for whom it was IN
tended, thus rendering delivery possible.
1t would seem that this recommendation
would also apply to domestic mails, juig-
ing from the wagon loads of undeiivered
articles that annually accumulate in the
dead letter Office in this city and are sold
at public auction for whatever they will
bring.
