P. O. SENSATION.
Department Notifies Postmaster
Greene Of a Cut Of 10 Car
riers Feb. /.
Expenses Have Exceeded the Appropria-
ton, and First Assistant Postmaster
General Thinks There Are Too MANY
Deliveries in Large Cities.

If an anarchist had dropped a bomb
hundred feet away from Postmaster
Greene's window, Monday morning, 1t
is very probable that he would not have
been more surprised than he was when
he received word from the first assist
ant postmaster general at Washington,
that cut of ten carriers was to be made
in the local force, February l.
The cause is that the allowance for
free delivery for the year will be ex-
ceeded by s150000 if the present force is
allowed Instead of asking congress for
more money to meet the demand, the as
sistant postmaster general has come to
the conclusion that it would be better
to cut down the force In fact he has
expressed himself of the belief that more
than four deliveries a day in the resi-
dence portion of any city are super
fiuous. New York. Brooklyn and Boston
have, in some of the residence portions
of the city, seven and eight deliveries a
day
Postmaster Greene has begun to fight
against the cut, and letters are already
on their way to Senator Hoar, Congress-
man Walker and the assistant postmas-
ter general. The cut for Worcester
means one-sixth of the entire force;
while at Boston the cut is but one-six-
tenth; at Brooklyn one-sixteenth and at
New York one-twentieth. Postmaster
Greene argues, and rightly, that the cut
is, first of all, unjust. And again, in view
of the fact that four deliveries only are
made at the extreme limit here, that
there is no demand for a cut at all, and
any cut is uncalled for. Figures show
that the large cities would be better off,
in proportion, after the cut than Wor
cester is today with its full force of so
men. If matters come to the worst the
postmaster will go on to Washington to
make a personal protest.
The general belief is that if asked,
congress would make the additional APP
preparation willingly; but the attitude
Of the assistant postmaster general IN
saying that too many deliveries are
being made in the large cities, doubtless
stands in the way Of this move, unless
pressure can be brought to bear on the
postmaster general.
But allowing that the assistants
statements are true, Worcester is not
INDUCING in any such luxuries in the
way of deliveries, and there Is no reason
why she should suffer for the sins of
others, if they are being committed
The announcement will certainly
arouse the indignation of Worcester
people, and her representatives in
Washington will certainly do their part
to prevent such unfair and unjust
treatment
The new routes have but just been
laid out, after an endless amount of
work. To drop the ten men would mean
to go back to the old cramped delivery.
After the recent changes such howl
of righteous indignation would follow
from all over the city that the post
master does not even dare to think what
trial it would be to meet the people
who would throng to his office.

THE LATE T, w. t. CALLAHAN.
Funeral Services in Church of Imma-
culate Conception Boston.


The funeral Of the late Theobald
Wolfe Tone Callahan. who died in Bos-
ton, on Friday last, was held from the
Church of the Immaculate Conception,
in that city. Monday morning, and was
attended by many friends of the de-
ceased. Mr.. Callahan was a member of
Bangor Lodge of Elks, and several
members of that lodge were in attend
ance. Messrs. W. H. Bishop, John F.
Kelly, c. L. Bachelder, W. j. Casey,
George e. McMunn, Louis A. Guyer OF
Bangor Lodge, 1. N. Goldsmith, Fred ].
Brathes, Frank l. Wood of Portland
Lodge, T. j. Hurley of Worcester, John
H. Dee and other members of Boston
Lodge of Elks were in attendance.
George Nickerson, Jr., of Commercial
Lodge of Knights Of Pythias, of which
Mr. Callahan was a member, also at
tended. Solemn requiem mass was cele-
brated, and the remains were inferred
in Dorchester Catholic cemetery.
The floral offerings were very beau
tiful, notably those from Bangor Lodge,
the G. c. A. Cigar Company, of which
Mr. Callahan was member, and Com
mercial Lodge, K. of P.
The following gentlemen were pail
bearers: John F. Kelley, w. ]. Casey,
George p. McMunn, representing the
Bangor lodge; I. N, Goldsmith of Port
land lodge and William H. Bachelor
and E. Goldsmith, the c. c. A. com
pany, business associates of the de-
ceased.
The first reports concerning the death
of Mr.. Callahan were not correct. After
a careful and exhaustive examination,
Medical Examiner Draper decided that
heart disease and affection of the kid
neys caused his death, and that there
was not the least particle of evidence
to show that suicide was committed or
even attempted. Mr.. Callahan was Al
years of age, and leaves a sister, who
was at the funeral HIS life was in
sured for $4,000, all of which goes to
his sister.
Mr.. Callahan's genial and manly
qualities endeared him to a host OF
friends ali over New England, who will
be panied to hear of his death.

Barre Jan. 17.-Hotel Barre presents

40 hunters at the hotel, eagerly discuss

the sportsmen would desire. Foxes are
plenty, but the temperature is down
nearly to the zero mark, and while
there is about two inches of snow on
the ground, it is covered with a heavy
crust. rhis crust is liable to cut and
cripple the hounds, rendering them too
lame for work after the first days
chase is ended.
The hunt tomorrow will be In the
northerly section Of the town, Sherman
hill being one of the, localities which
will be covered. The start viii be made
at Z O'Clock, which means that break

earlier. The hounds will be called off

When the yellow flag of quarantine
