say that the Bulletin will hereafter be
lclassed as third class matter. The Bu'le-
tin has always been handled rs second
class matter, but Postmaster busbee
saws this has been enormously done, that
the Bulletin has no bona tide paid up cir

Second class mail matter is described
in the postal laws as regular periodical
publications. for the dissemination of in

such publication must have legitl-

or circulation at nominal rates"
The difference in the cost Of mailing
the $4,000 Bulletins as third class mat

siderable. Second class matte costs a
cent a pound. The rate OF postage on
third class matter is one cent FOR cacn
two ounces, or eight cents pound.

quested to comply with its requirements"
We would say in reply that we were not
aware of this law until advised by you, and
IL is our opinion that its effect upon the
business interests Of your State will not be
beneficial, but quite otherwise. We have
for mapv wears made purchases from some
of the Wilmington houses, with mutual
satisfaction, but we could without incon-
venience transfer our orders to parties out
side OF Delaware, and expect to do so rather
than comply with the onerous law in ques-
ton.
It becomes a very serious matter.
therefore, II the law, on account of that
ruling, is TO cause business to be taken
away from Delaware, and the ppssi.
biIity suggests that it may be found
advisable to make a change in the law
in order to limit it to the intent on
which account it was framed.
Some Of the New York steamship
companies also refuse to comply with
the law. Several of them held a meet
ing and determined to withdraw the
agencies they have in this city, and let
the business go to the Philadelphia
offices. Other Uf the New York steam
ship companies have complied with the
law. According to Mr.. Woolley. some
of the companies who determined to
give up their local agencies expressly
say that they do not want to come 10
Delaware to defend their contracts.
On the other hand, all the insurance
companies have filed their certificates
| In fact. practically all the moueyed IN.
stitutions, including foreign loan asso.
Citations and trust companies have filed
without objection. The prothonuiary
traces this to their being already
acquainted with similar laws elsewhere,
whereas the mercantile companies may
not be possessed of the same informa
| tion. Other States have legislation or
the subj iect. In Pennsylvania. for in
stauce. according to the prothonotary,
foreign corporation must file such Ger
titicate with the Secretary of State, {
certified COPY of its charter and pay I
fee of $40. Under the Delaware law th'
local agency may be but limitec
agency having tho sole power of receiv
ing service and not of making con
tracts. In reply to ono foreign corpora
tion Mr.. Woolley has answered that on
agent is sufficient for the whole State
but the certificate must be filed il
each county.
