Postmaster Van Colt said yesterday, In speak.
ing of his recent trip to Washington. that he
was hopeful of the adoption of some plan by
which the contemplated reduction of the letter
carrier force in this city would be rendered un-
necessary.

is heartily in sympathy with the efforts to this
end" he said, land I have assurances from
Senator Plat, Congressman Quigg. and Cor
nelius n. Bliss, Secretary Of the Interior. that
they will do all they can to prevent the impair
ment of our postal facilities. A number Of Con-
gressmen with whom / talked have also prom
Used their support.
"Some OF the Western Representatives could
not ut first understand why we should have
more deliveries than other cities. and were as
tonished when / put before them In detail the
volume of postal business here. I also endeav-
ored to make plain to them tho impossibility of
ness districts for the. reason that they merge
into ono another in all parts of the city, and I
pointed out that to decrease the number of de-
liveries above Forty.second street. or in any
other populous section which might DO termed
residential, would materially inconvenience
very many business men.

tity of Paris green. When found the body was
still warm.
At the Office 1t was found that the grave
where the woman lay was that of a man named
Moot. who was buried in 1888 and had lived in
Sixth street. this city.
Deputy Coroner Strong sent the body to the
Morgue. In the woman's pocket he found a note
signed "Seot," stating that she intended to take
her life and that she wanted to be buried in that
lot, as she had left money enough for that pur-
pose. The woman had in her pocket a deed for
the cemetery lot where the body was found.
One of the cemetery employees said that the
name in which the deed was made out was
Margaret Neot.
The woman was poorly dressed. Her face
was thin and haggard. Her complexion was
dark and her upper teeth were false. Her right
whist had been gashed as IL she first tried that
way Of ending her life. but the wound was not
serious enough to cause death. A search
failed to disclose any knife or other weapon
with which she could have cut herself. but the
Coroner found a sharp-edged tone. whose edge
was covered with blood. and he concluded that
the woman must have first tried to end her life
with this.

mill. This concern. which was closed on &C
count of a sympathetic outbreak among the
operatiyes following tho strike at the Vans
kuck mill, employs about 100 hands. Superin-
tcndent Motcalf says that several Of the weavers
notified him that they were tired of being idle
and wanted to go to work. Owing to these rep.
reservations no decided to start up. A detail of
police was sent to the mill at $3.50 o'clock this
morning.
The precaution was unnecessary, however.
rs there was no attempt at interference with
those who desired to go to work. The manage
ment declined to say how many looms were run
ming, but the strikers say that not moro than
ten were In operation.
There are at present nearly 800 persons idle
owing to the trouble in tho Wanskuck. and
Geneva mills. Some Of the operatives have
gone to seek work elsewhere. The trouble here
was occasioned. not by n cutdown, but by n de-
mand for increased wages. The management
submitted q compromise schedule. which was
rejected.
