The postmaster at Bozeman has re-
ceived orders from Washington. ID. c., to
begin on Jan. - an exchange of inner
registered sacks with the postmaster at
st. Paul. This will save one DAYS time
on all registered mail sent from the Boze-
man Office TO St. Paul or points east of
there, As heretofore registered mail from
Bozcman has been left at Miles City for
dispatch from there in a similar sack,
thereby losing one days time. This inner
registered sack was probably ordered be-
cause of the large amount of registered |
mail received by the Bozeman and Butte
railway postoflice, as in the future this
mail will no doubt be left at the Bozeman |
To be dispatched in this sack as
it will give greater security than can be
had toy the present system of sending such
mail. Il
