.IHB POSTAL CONGRESS-
A Scheme Being Urged For an In
ternational Postal Telegraph.
KOREA WILL JOIN THE UNION.

Minister From That Country Makes
Formal Announcement-Now Doubt
full Whether China VIII Entor-The
Orange Free State Has Not Reported.
Washington, May 11.-There were two
significant features of yesterdays de-
velopments of the universal postal con-
gress. The first was the positive an
nouncement from the Korean minister
here, Mr.. Chin Pom Ye, that the little
kingdom would join the union, and the
second decision that was reached
after long discussion to reduce rates
of international postal orders on
sliding scale basis after reaching a
certain amount. This matter does not
affect the United States The action
will not affect postal orders for less
than 100 francs or $40, but will cheaper
the cost of all issued for more than
that sum.
A scheme Is being urged, and may
be submitted at this congress for re-
port at the next, providing for inter-
national Geographic service at the
postofiices of some of the leading cities
of the various countries. This already
is in operation at some places abroad,
but its advocates want its operation
made general.
The Korean minister's announcement
puts an end to doubt that has been ex-
pressed as to Korea's intention of en-
tering, the minister stating explicitly
that. his country would join. Ex-Gov-
ernor Hoyr, counsel for Korea, is at
tending the meetings and advising the
Korean delegation, and added today
that of course that country would re-
serve the right to refuse adhesion I'M
less the proceedings of the congress are
entirely satisfactory.
Despite positive announcements from
Pekin some months ago, there Is some
doubt now as to Chinas Joining the
union, though its delegates are in at
tendance. but without vote. Orange
Free State, also, has not been heard
from. The delegations from Bulgaria
and Roumania made a proposition for
the adoption of the franc basis for all
postal orders, and many Of the Latin
countries supported this. France,
Greece, Belgium, Italy and Spain were
among them.
England and Germany and other
countries opposed this at some length,
and finally France announced that that
country would not insist upon the prop
osition, as it recognized 1t might be in
convenient, though recognizing the
compliment to its monetary system. 1t
was the general sentiment that the
present scheme, the basis of payment
being in each case that of the stand
ard of the issuing country, should be
continued.

New York, May 11.-There was a
