EEwER LETrER o1RRIERS.

Three Membsrs of the Local Force Dis
missed, as Secret Service Agents Re
ported That They We're Not Making
the acquired Eight Hours Day.
Letter. carriers Oliver, Sylvanus and
Sterling have been dismissed from the
service by Postmaster Moore. This
action is according to instructions from
Washington, and is due to an lnvesti-
CATION made by Secret Service agents.
One of these agents recently registered
at the Clayton House as B. F. Hughes
Of Chicago. He Swallowed the men,
and after day or two's watching in
formed the Postofilcs Department in
Washington that the men connected
with the local Office were making but
about six and half hours, instead of
eight.
The result was that orders were re-
ceived here either to increase the size of
the districts or reduce the force. The
latter step was decided upon, but as
soon as the new territory which has
been taken into the city is officially
under the local postal authorities, it
will be necessary to put on more men.
The Investigation by the government
was the result of the application made
by the Wilmington carriers for over
time claims were investigated by one set
of men and another set looked after the
regular time made by the men.

WILL HE LAY PIPES ?
A Current Report That Addicks win Re-

A Current Report That Addicks win Re-
new His Efforts TO Put Gas Mains In the
City Streets.
1t was reported on the street Saturday
morning that j. Edward Addicks will
in short time make application to the
Board of Directors of the Street and
Sewer Department for permission to lay
gas pipes in the streets of the city. The
rumor says that he intends to make the
application to the department first, and
If the request be refused he will go to
the courts and make an effort to compel
the department to grant his request,
claiming in his prayer that the depart
ment is discriminating in favor OF one
corporation.
President Chambers of the board was
seen and said that he knew nothing of
the matter. "rhis is the first intimation
l have had that anything of the kind
| would be donc," he said, when repor-
ter of The GAZETTE made known to
| him the current report. You know,
he continued, "there is an injunction in
force which prohibits Mr.. Addicks from
laying pipes, the injunction having been
in existence already four years and two
months. 1t is possible that an cffor
may be made to have the injunction
raised. but / have heard nothing o.
that"
1t is pretty generally believed, how
ever, that something will be done verl
soon by Mr.. Addicks in the direction 0
laying pipes in the streets Of the city
but Just what steps will be taken coult
not be ascertained this morning.

How the Business Mems Republican n
Club Forced the Resolutions Reading
MIR. Addicks Out of the Republican
Party.
1t is understood that upon this par
ticular occasion recently when j. Ed
ward Addicks was read out of the Re-
publican party by the Business Mems
Republican Club that but seven mem
bers were present.
1t is said also that considerable and
very emphatic opposition was made to
the passage Of the resolutions and that
after some delay they were got through
by bare to 8 vote. In other words
MIR. Addicks was read out of the Re-
publican party by vote of four per-

BRIpGEyILLE, June 1.-The thermometer
registered from $50 to 1902 yesterday in
the shade The heat was very severe on
berry pickers. who worked all day beneath
the broiling sun. A number of cases
we're reported where the pickers became
overcome by the heat and fell prostrate in
the fields. it o'clock this morning there
is every indication to believe that the heat
will be even more excessive than yester-
day, and if such be the case there will
doubtless be more cases OF prostration and
it is feared some fatalities. Farmer in some
sections are complaining that the rose
bugs have made their appearance in great
numbers and are doing some damage.
The work of the cut worm which did so
much damage to corn and garden veGe-
tables during the recent wet season is
about over. as the hot suns of the last few
days has killed most of them.
