Empire States Executive Inaugural
Address at Albany Today.

ALBANY, N. ", Jan. 2..-Governor Levi
r. Morton OF New York In his inaugural
today had much to say regarding the con-
duct OF affairs in the Empire State. He
began his address by saying.
ain submitting to the Legislature OF New
York my first annual message, am pro-
foundly impressed with a sense OF the
far-reachiog responsibility that devolves
today upon both the Legislative and
executive branches OF our State
government The complete con-
troll of both OF these divisions
OF public power and authority has been
transferred from one political party to
another, and this transference of author
ity has been made in the hope and firm
reliance of the people who ordained and
wrought the change, that great benefit
would insure to the whole commonwealth
from the new order OF things.
"The duties and obligations with which
we are charged are this year more than
ordinarily important"
The Governor refers to the race tracks
as follows: ." The revised constitu-
tion, Section 9 OF Article /, adds to
the old provision against lotteries a
ptovison that no kind OF gambling
shall hereafter be authorized or al
lowed within this State, and requires the
Legislature TO pass appropriate laws to
prevent offences against any of the
provisions of the section. II is
well understood that the provision
is aimed at the race track gambling
permitted by the statute OF 1887, above
mentioned and the Legislature, in obedi-
ence to the will OF the people, thus ex-
pressed, should without delay expunge
the obnoxious law from the statute books.

Several important Plans for
Improvement.
Uniform Rates Everywhere Excepting
Canada and Mexico.
Arrangement for Facilitating Foreign
Mails.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 2. - Several inn
portant plans for improving the postal
service have just become operative. The
principal one is the general reduc-
tion Of postage rates for Cape Colony,
Orange Free State and all other
countries not embraced in the universal
postal union. Under provisions OF the
new scheme all countries will now enjoy
uniform rates except Canada and Mexico,
for which special rates have long been in
vogue. The change results in reduction
of rates for ordinary mails from 10 to 8
cents on half ounce and for newspapers
from to TO cents for two ounces.
The new arrangement for facilitating
foreign mails from Boston, philadelphia,
Baltimore, Chicago and st. Louis, also
went into operation. This allows the
present system of having tho regular
mails handled and waybilled at the New
York Office but also provides for sending
additional mails by later trains which leave
in time TO make direct connection with
the steamers, mesfengers TO be stationed
at the depots to carry the mail direct to
the vessels instead of allowing the
delay incurred by the regular mails in
going through the New York City
Office. A change in the series OF
the newspapers and periodical
stamps will 60 into operation this
week, involving general changes in de-
nominations and in colors, though
maintaining the general characteristics
