BALTIMORE, Nov. 10-A ship
wrecked crew and the Captains wife
were brought here to-day. For an entire
week the woman and seven mon were
threatened with death, and when rescued
were more dead than alive. \ few partly
| decayed potatoes was the only food OF
which the party partook for seven days,
and during that period there was no
water 10 drink. To add to the misery OF
/ their position, the ship-wrecked party
was constantly meuaced with death by
drowning during those long days and
longer nights.

On October 2lst a strong gale and heavy
seas were encountered. Late at night
some OF the deck load was washed away
and the balance was thrown overheard.
AT O'clock the following morning the
wind suddenly shifted, throwing the ves-
sci on end, ana leaving her in an almost
perpendicular position until the rigging
could be cut away. Heavy seas contin-
ued TO wash the decks, making il neces-
sary for the crew to lash themselves TO
stationary objects.
For three days no vessel was sighted.

sels but hope soon died out as thev
passed by without being attracted by the
distress signals. During the next four
days the dropping spirits and fast-failing

men were occasionally revived by the

Ewing has been engaged on special
medical duty. The strained relations
that have long existed between the two
doctors eliminated in a rupture two
weeks ago. Captain Ewing made a
written request for permission to be alb
sent from the post several evenings
each week, giving as a reason desire
to attend a course of lectures in St

plication as follows: Yes, let Captain
Ewing go. He is of no account any

Shortly before | o'clock both men met
at the bottom Of the stairs leading to
Major Laing's office on South Fourth

by those who were near, Moore demand

Major refused to comply with the re-
guest, and as he started to go up stairs

POSTAL SERVICE.
Report of First Assistant Postmaster
General Jones.

WASHINGTON, Nov 10-First AS
sistant General Jones has
submitted his report. 1t calls attention
to a saving in his branch of the service
during the past year of S1,395.57I
Mr.. Jones recommends an appropria-
ton of SIT ,G00.000 to cover compensa-
ton of Postmasters for the next fiscal
year, and $10,500000 for clerk hire at
first and second-class Postoftices. He
recommends the order recently promul-
gated by the President providing for the
consolidation of fourth class Postoffices,
and says the only positions at first
class Postoffices that are now excepted
from civil service examination are AS
sistant Postmaster, private secretary
and stenographer. cashier and assistant
cashier: at second-class offices Assistant
Postmaster, under whatever legal deS-
ignation known.
Mr.. Jones does not favor maintaining
experimental free delivery service in
towns and villages. but states that if the
people still demand it he assumes Con-
gress will pass the necessary appropria-
tions TO establish the service.
In view of the great saving effected,
and the general Improvement in the
service, especially in the large cities,
Mr.. Jones recommends the employment
or a number Of men in the larger offices,
whose regular duty it shall be to inspect
the work of carriers, make suggestions
as to extensions and changes of routes,
and, in fact, to have a general super
vision of the work of carriers outside OF
Pcstofices. Mr. Jones says that besides
the actual saving effected, the i'm
proved efficiency in the service in the Of
fees investigated must be credited to
the Secret Service. At every office the
discipline of the force and efficiency OF
the service have been much improved
the work more equally distributed
among the letter carriers and at many
Offices extensions made and facilities
increased without additional cost.
The Assistant tmaster-General
recommends that the attention of Con-
gress should be called 10 the advisa-
bility of providing penalty for the use
OF the post-marking stamp for unlaw-
ful purposes. or for counterfeiting it,
or placing an impression thereof upon
an envelope or postal card for the pur-
pose or deception. He says some pen
atty for the unlawful use of the franking
privilege should be imposed.
