POSTAL STATISTICS.
Report Of First Assistant Postmaster
Frank III. Jones.

Washington, Nov. S.-First Assistant
Postmaster-Ge General Frank H. Jones, in
his annual report for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1896. says that there has
curing that time been a saving of $3,-
SS,9S5 and also shows an improvement
in the service of delivering the volume
of mail matter. The number Of presi-
Dental postoffices is 1851, the salaries
of the postmasters being $6.205.900 and
the total gross receipts from these
offices We're $85, 2S2 1854.
Mr.. Jones recommends that $11, 900 900
be appropriated to compensate post
masters for the next fiscal year. He
only asks $11. 100000 for clerk hire, a
considerable decrease i'm proportion to
the increase of clerks to be employed.
Free delivery service has been estab-
lished at twenty-four cities during the
year and there are now but siXty-three
entitled to 1t. but on account of the eX-
pense. the remainder could not be bene-
fitted. Experimental free delivery In
towns and villages has shown reduc-
tion In gross receipts in a majority Of
offices.
An estimated expenditure of $1S.326,-
800 Is made on account of free delivery
service for the fiscal year 1S97-9S.
Negotiations are now pending for an
exchange of money orders with Mexico.
Mr.. Jones recommends that a PEN
atty he prescribed for the unlawfus use
of the frank of member of congress
and suggests $500 fine in each case. He
says, the law was disregarded during
the campaign just closed.

session at the Stock exchange, in fact the
trading was more animated than ON any
other Saturday since December last when

special influences at work were the re-
sumption of business throughout the
country. belief that money will rule
easier now that confidence has been re.
stored and an impression that some OF
the Granger roads will increase their uivi-
dends in the near future. The advance IN

NEW WORLDS RECORD.
Wefers Makes New Time for 100 and
900 Yards.

Washington, Nov. S.-A red letter
chapter I'm the history of amateur ath-
letics was written at Georgetown yes
terday, by Bernard j. Wefers, who
beat two worlds records for 100 yards,
and for 300. The first was made in the
remarkable time of 3 3-5 seconds, and
the second in 20 2-5. 1t was Wefer's
last appearance of the year after
most remarkable campaign. The hum
dred-yard race was special event,
and was done on the spur of the mo-
ment. AS he snapped the cord at the
finish the timekeepers' watches record
ed 3-5 seconds. or one-fifth better
than the run he had made in the inter-
national competition in New York, a
year ago last summer. The timers
announcement was greeted with wild
cheering
When the 800 yard race was an
nounced Wefers again toed the scratch.
This time he had julius Walsh and
McAnery as pacemakers and an es-
cort of Georgetown athletes and stu
dents. At the finish Wefers was about
ten feet behind Walsh and made the
run in 30 g-5, thus beating his and the
worlds record by one-fifth of a second.
The track at Georgetown has the dis
advantage OF a curve. In addition to
being trine slow.

when shown the dispatch said it was
the first that he had heard of it, al
though for some time past, he said, it
was intimated to him that his very
close friends were bringing his name
forward in connection with a cabinet
Office.
Congressman Harmer said that the
idea of seeking u cabinet portfolio was

If such an offer was made to him by
Major Mckinley he would certainly
give it consideration.

Grange county In the marriage of W.
Il. Kmer, Il Milwaukee travelling sales
man, and Miss Grace Dawes. The cOu-
pie had determined to marry October
20. The announcement cards had been
issued, the brides trOsseau had been
prepared and the officiating clergyman
engaged.
The couple were so interested in Nc
Kinley's success that both agreed in
writing that If the Ohio man failed of
election their engagement would be
broken, the unique compact further
providing that neither was ever to
marry. Kiner returned to Milwaukee
to await the result of the election, and
yesterday returned to claim Miss
Dawes for his bride.
