POSTAL CONVENTION.
Letter Carriers Discuss the Best Methods
Of Securing IN Increase of Salary.

Philadelphia, Sept. 4.-The letter car
riers in convention today considered
resolutions directing the legislative
committee to urge the speedy passage
Of house bill No. 6,6S5 by congress. The
measure referred to Is the Dunphy bill
which was introduced in the last ses-
sion of congress, but which failed to-
pass because, as was declared in the
convention today, the Letter carriers are
divided on the subject. 1t provides for
an equalizat ation of salaries at $1,000 per
anAum.
Carriers in cities of the first class
are now paid $1,000 per year, and those
In second class cities receive $3.50. The
former carriers want their pay in
creased to 81, 200 per annum, and are
therefore opposed to the Dunphy meas
ure. The resolution was freely dis
cussed and the convention adjourned
for lunch without a position having
been taken upon II.
At this afternoons session the reso-
luton was adopted.
A number of resolutions were then
quickly disposed of. Those favorably
considered were one directing the legis-
lative committee TO prepare O bill for
presentation to congress, granting $50
q year to letter carriers for the pur-
chase of summer and winter uniforms.
Another, which was also adopted,
called for the presenting to the post
Office department of a petition REQUEST
ing that the Letter carriers be allowed
to wear a lighter coat during the heat
ed term. A resolution providing for
a government salary of 5000 per year
for substitute letter carriers. although
discussed In a kindly spirit, failed of
adoption.
Tomorrow, before the convention
opens, there will be special meeting
of the delegates from Omaha, Neb. !;
Columbus. o.; Richmond. Va; Pater-
son. N. j.; Denver. Col, and several
other prominent cities to consider plans
for obtaining back salary due car
riers for the year 1890. just previous
to which the cities affected had been
raised ITO the first class because of an
increase in population. The advance
has been paid since 1891. The amount
involved Is $4,000.
