NO HOPE FOR THEN.
Volunteers Must Remain IN Service
Until Other Arrangements
are Made.

Washington, Nov. THE request OF
the First Colorado infantry to be re-
turned from Manila to the United
States cannot be granted by the war de-
partment- It was stated by officers of
the army today that such requests had
been frequent from soldiers OF volunteer
organizations who enlisted to fight, but
did not enlist for garrison duty The
desire Of this regiment to return home
was simply the desire OF other voIun-
teers and nothing could be done, the
officer said. until congress met and pro-
vided some kind of force TO take the
place of the volunteers.
The subject of recognizing the army
with a view to securing an adequate
force for the new possessions OF the Z
s has already received the serious con
sideration of the president, the secretary
of war and officers of the army. The
president viii make representa- lions to
congress on this subject, embOdy iug his
views and the views of those who are
in position to give him the very best ad-
vice Tt IS probable that he will recon-
mend an increase of the army to some
thing like 100000 men, although this is
not certain and he may think that "a, 600
is enough.
There has been some talk also Of en-
listing for garrison duty, two cOmpa-
MES or battalion of natives to each
regiment doing garrison duty in Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines. It is
believed by this method a consfd era BILE
portion of the restless population Of the
Islands and especially those who have
been bearing arms in the inSurgent or
Spanish armies could be kept quiet and
IaWabiding. It is stated by officers of
the army that the duties devOIved upon
the troops under the new order of things
cannot be satisfactory to the volunteers
and that n army will have to be pro-
vided which viii go where it is sent
without complaints of any kind Men
who enlist in the regular army heraaf-
ter viii understand that they are likely
to be called upon at any time to 90 out
Of the country and to garrison distant
lands for long periods It is believed
that the demand which has been made
upon senators and representatives for
the muster out Of volunteer regiments
and the discharge of volunteers in regi-
ments which have remained in the ser
vice has been so great that they will be
convinced that regular army for gar
rison duty in the new possessions is an
absolute necessity.

SEVEN CLERKS KILLED
In the Railway Postal Service During
Last Year

Washington. Nov. 1.-The annual report
Of the general superintendent of the rail-
Of the year there were SOFA clerks en-
pIoyed and that with the closed pouch and
express pouch service the grand total OF
miles Travelled in the service was 2S5, 565.
Matter so fIegtbly addressed as to re-
quire special attention before delivery
delivered at all amounted to Il. 10000
pieces for the year, I. $50, 600 pieces of which
forwarded. the rest being turned into the
dead letter office for disposition. The
general superintendent deplores the fact
that the number OF casualties last year
exceeded the record of any previous year.
though the number of fatalities was not 50
great There were 59T casualties in which
Ously injured and 146 slightly It is urged
that some provision be made by congress
for the families of the clerks killed while
on duty and for the creation of a railway
mail service relief fund for the benefit of
mail clerks totally disabled or injured IN
The wisdom of appointing a number of
assistant superintendent to inspect star.
steamboat and mail messenger routes and
screen wagon service. supervise the weigh
ing of mails. etc, 1t is said, has been
made evident by the result of their work
An innovation is proposed in the way Of
establishing postal stations IN railway
depOts, and this and other recommenda-
uons have been approved oy the second
assistant postmaster general
Quite a comprehensive statement on the
part OF the railway mail service took IN
the forwarding of mails TO and from the
military camps during the war just closed
and the dIspatchtng OF mails 10 and fro m
the army and navy in and around Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippine islands is
given and long list of improvements and
extensions in the service is shown
It is estimate that IS. 92S IFS will be re-
quired for salaries of railroad postal
and 81. 204 500 for railway postofdce cars,
exclusive OF subsidized lines.

Springfield. Mass. Nov. bishops OF
the Methodist Episcopal church, who
have been holding their semi-annual
conference in this city voted to call for
a twentieth century thank offering
Of S20. OO0. 900 from the members Of ths

1st 1901. and the sum wanted IS expect
ed to be received by that date, it was
voted to devote the money to the Inn
prOvement of educational and charita be
Institutions now maintained by the
Methodist Episcopal church. None OF
il will be used for the establishment OF
new institutions.
The call for the fund will soon be is
sued. It is not intended to make the
collections at one stated time but make
them so gradual that they will not be
burden. The offering is intended as an
expression of thanks for the com letiOn
of twenty centuries Of christianity and
will be the greatest effort of its charac-
gaHiZatiOn-
The bishops are confident that the
fund will be secured One Of them said
that the membership Of the Methodist
Episcopal church is 2,S00, 600 and that OF
tributions will be asked for in all quar-
tiers of the globe where the denOmina-
ton has mem berShip. One of the
bishops said:
1.-THE fund will not seem so great
when it is appreciated that IL is distrih-
uted among 200 educational institutions,
theological schools and colleges, etc.
and among many hundreds of charita-
bic institutions"
