Thoughtful Carriers Gratuitously
Deliver Mail Matter on
Sunday.
TO ACCOMMODATE MERCHANTS
The Efforts of the Merchants Exchange
to Increase the Revenue Par.
TALLY Successful.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FnANo1sco CALL, ],


9Oo Broadway, Jan. 20.
Some OF the Oakland mail-carriers yes
terday voluntarily performed work that the
Government does not require of them, and
for which they cannot expect any pay.
Owing to the many accidents caused to
the railroad in the mountains by snow
and washouts, the overland trains and
mails have been considerably DELAYED.
Yesterday morning five overland mails
were received at the postofice, and ac-
cording to the rules governing the mail
service the mails would have to take
chances OF being delivered along with the
regularly received packages. The carriers
are only required to work eight hours a
day, and unless special effort was made
some of the overdue letters might not be
delivered for a day or two longer.
When the carriers saw the accumulation
of mail matter they sorted out the mail of
the business men, and without making a
regular delivery, they distributed large
quantities of mail matter on their own
time.
The action of the carriers caused much
favorable comment from the fact that they
were prohibited by the department at
Washington from issuing the customary
souvenirs this Christmas. In consequence
OF TINS rule many of the merchants and
residents did not remember the time-hon-
ored custom of giving a Christmas box to
the postman. Not more than one-half the
usual amount was received by the men,
but there was nothing to do but to pocket
their disappointment and hope for better
showing next year.
At the present time the Oakland post
Office is somewhat at disadvantage, as so
many of the residents purchase their
stamps across the bay, and decrease the
revenues of the Office This being so there
is smaller number of carriers than there
would be otherwise, and as the territory
they cover is large they have proportions
ately larger amount of work.
There IS little improvement since the
Merchants Exchange undertook to try
and educate Oaklanders to purchase at
home, said Postmaster White to-day,
land should it continue we may soon hope
for more carriers. There are frequently
letters delivered late because the carriers
have not time to deliver them"
