The Deficiency in I.etter Carrier Appropri
alton Fault of Departments.
ESPECIAL TO THE pREss.I

Washington, January 25.--It seems
probable that Congress will soon remedy
the difficulty which has arisen about the
letter carriers in the cities. although the
way the legislative branch of the govern
ment has been treated in the matter may
cause some sharp debate when the COM
mittees on appropriation report the de-
floiency needed, The whole trouble has
arisen from an attempt On the part of the
post Office department. to enlarge its pow
ers and appropriate.money without let
ting Congress do 1t. Having exceeded
its rights in-expending money by making
certain. mutations Of the service and tax
ing on certain new employees it has pro-
ceeded to retrench not in cities where the
imitation was made and where delivery
has been carried to the extreme of seven
deliveries in thesresident portions and
ten in the business parts, but in the small
offices which have only three or four de-
liveries. 1t seems to be an at
tempt on the part of the large cities to
get an advantage over the smaller ones
and force Congress to appropriate. AS
before stated, Congress will probably do
it, but the whole thing has come about
in an irregular and improper way.

None of the remains Of those lost have
been recovered. The four walls of the big

TIE PROBABLE PROGRAMME.
What the nj aine Was Supposed to Do Afser
She Arrived at Havana.

v ~-~~~-
She helArrived at Hayana.
Washington, January 25.-Admiral
he had received and executed Secretary
Longs order respecting the Maine, and
that she would sail at once. The order
probably was received by the Admiral
about ten o'clock last night, while off
Tortugas harbor and the answer came
back to Key West on the torpedo boat
Dupont, which carried over the order.
The procedure to be followed by the
Maine upon her arrival off Havana, Is
laid down at the Navy Department as fol
lows: Beginning at daylight (for no craft
is permitted to enter the harbor during
darkness) at the entrance to the harbor,
the Maine will begin to fire salute OF
twenty -one guns.
. AS soon as the last gun has been nred
She guns of Morro Castle will begin re-
turn salute of the same number of guns.
Then. as there is a Spanish admiral in
the harbor salute must be fired by the
Maine in his honor. Th will be fifteen
\ guns. il he be @ vice admiral, and thirteen
guns if rear admiral.
This salute will be returned and
probably the Spanish admiral will send q
staff officer aboard the Maine to greet
Captain Sigsbee. This call must be re-
from rort officers, health officers and
others. Meanwhile, presuming that
Consul General Lee has not appeared,
Captain Sigsbee will send one of his
officers ashore to the United States con-
sulate with message to General Lee
stating that the Maine Is awaiting his Or
ders, and indicating that he would be
pleased to receive the consul general
aboard or to call upon him ashore at his
pleasure. These calls having been ex-
changed, the next thing in order Will pc
reception to the acting general, for IL is
reported that Capt. General Blaneo has
gone eastward from Havana as far as
