SUNDAY PARADES.
As Related to the Postofice at Chicaro-
Inspection.

CHICAGO, Oct. 4.-Some days 400 Post.
master Hesing arranged for a review of
inc hundreds of letter carriers to be held
next sunday on the lake front. The
scheme was Immediately attacked by
many of the clcrgymen of the city. who
not only protested in person to the post
master and to the departement at Wash
lngton, but preached against it last Sun
oay. The newspapers also took it I'D, and
the controversy waxcd warm The first
assistant postmaster general gave his de-
cision, brief synopsis of which was
printed in these dispatches yesterday,
"hich according to Mr.. Hesing as re-
ported in the following interview does not
amount to victory for the Sunday rest
people, who to man We're delighted with
the decision.
Postmaster Hesing Also Delighted.
MI Hesing has not received the letter
of First Assistant Postmaster General
Jones by mail, but accepts the telegraphed
letter and expresses great joy at the posi-
ton taken by that official. ''for it not only
fully substantiates my views, sanctions
my actions but even goes further than
had expected" said he to a reporter Con-
tinuing, this is the way he argues that the
decision sustains his own position: s'In
the first place the point at issue was
whether or not an inspection should be
held on Sunday, the pulpit politicians of
Chicago declaring that in ordering sun
day inspection had violated the rcgula-
lations. Mr.. Jones says that Sunday is
the only day on which the inspection shall
be held, and agrees with me that an in
spcction is necessary
sunday sDcsec ration" Sustained.
Some of my critics said that an inspcc-
ton was unnecessary. Mr.. Jones again
rcbukcs them and orders an inspection
Now, whether the inspection takes place
on the lake front or Dearborn street. or
at twcnty-three stations in succession or
at three stations, on Sunday, makes no
difference. Il it is sabbath dissertation to
inspect carriers on the lake front il is lust
rs much Sabbath dcsecration to inspect
them on Dearborn street; and if the up
holders of the Sabbath can find any salts
faction i'll the letter of the assistant post
master general they are welcome to it,
Instructions for Holding the Inspection.
Mr.. Hcsing had made it optional with
the carriers to attend, if they had any
conscientious scruplus regarding the mat
ter, but Jones declares that it is not op-
tional; that every carrier must attend
which also plcases the postmaster as
against the preachers To make it option
al, Jones says, would not comply with the
law. Jones also argues for the necessity
for the inspection on Sunday on the
ground that to hold it any other day would
cmbarrass the handling of the mail
Hcsing then quotes Jones' letter as fol-
lows: Hold the inspection at conven-
lent hour on Sunday afternoon in the COR
ridors of the postotiicc if possible and if
not on the sidewalks or streets in front of
the postofficc and stations. You will have
all the carriers in line and inspect them

ACCIDENT AT A CELEBRATION.
Several People at Baltimore Trampled by
Runaway Horses,

BALTIMORE, Oct. 4.-During the base
ball procession "a serious accident occurred.
The parade had reached the corner of
Lexington and Howard streets when the
six horses attached to heavy bus in
which We're a large number of people be-
came frightened at the fireworks and
made plunge into the crowd. The streets
at this point We're n perfect jam of hui
manity. Most of them We're women and
children.
The horses trampled down the people in
a frightful manner. When officers and
others had secured the horses and sue
ceeded in getting them off the sidewalk,
eleven persons, mostly women and chill
dren, were found to be injured. Florence
Ingle, aged Is, was taken out from under
the horses feet unconscious. 1t is feared
her skull is fractured. Henry Kruschlcn,
aged II, had both his arms So badly
crushed that amputation may be neces-
sary. Those two may die.

A CASE OF IMPOSSIBILiTY.
Tic Parade Cannot BE Held According to
Jones' Instructions.

The Parade Cannot BE Held According to
Jones Instructions.
Hcsing then goes on to say: ''In other
words Mr.. Jones commands me to inspect
the carrier force and to excuse nobody on
account of religious scruples-as / desired
to do-and if possible to hold the inspec-
ton in the corridors of the postoffice.
Now, the inspection cannot be held 1t is
impossible in the corridors of the post
Office. We have 400 carriers, of whom
ia use bicycles. Now, anybody will read
lily see that this force cannot possibly be
inspected in the corridors of the post
office"
He then refers to the government build
ing as an ''old ruin and says he would
not under any circumstances risk life by
holding the inspection in the building,
''for should any accident befall them these
pulpit politicians would say that the rca-
son u terrible calamity happened was he
cause they We're repaired TO be inspected
on Sunday afternoon, and the order is
that all the carriers shall he in line. All
the carriers cannot be in line, either in the
corridors of the post office nor on the side
walks and streets in front of the post
office.
''Thc city authorities would not allow
Dearborn and Adams street, for instance,
to be blOckaded for several hours, for that
would mean IA blockoding of four lines of

friend MIR Jones believes in carrying out

regulations.
.He makes it distinctly mandatory
that 'at n convenient hour on Sunday aft

thereby vindicating my position in favor

is the time when the business community
would suffer the least, and when the car

"For three reasons, then, am delighted
with the letter of the first assistant post

ton; i'm the second place because he be-

tons; in the third place because he be.
| licves that all the carriers should be in line
on Sunday afternoon.
"As our carrier force covers 125 square
miles, with twenty three stations, some of
which are twenty five miles apart, it will
be readily seen that it is n physical impos

ON Sunday afternoon. 1t would take one
at least five days to make that inspection

The decrease in all gold standard
