COL. THOMAS MAKES A PROTEST.
Boston's Postmaster Trying to Prevent Its
Service Being Crippled.

Especial Dispatch to the Boston Herald. J
Washington, D. c., Jan. 10, 1888 =
Postmaster Thomas of Boston called
upon First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath today and vigorously protested
against the reduction in the force of letter
carriers at Boston, which is now proposed
and the consequent crippling Of the free
delivery service at Boston.
He stated the case fully to Mr.. Heath,
and called attention to the fact that there
were no purely residential portions of
Boston now receiving more thar four de-
liveries daily, and that the proposed plan
of cutting off carriers in residential dis
tricts in order to assign them to business
districts could not we'll apply to Boston.
Mr.. Heath assured Mr.. Thomas that
nothing would be done until all the re-
ports of postofice inspectors in all parts
of the country had been received, when it
could he better told just when the cut
would have to be made.
Mr.. Machen, the chief of the free de-
livery department, is being deluged with
letters of protest against the curtailment
of the free delivery service, and much
pressure is likely. toabe brought to bear
upon Congress by business men in all
parts of the country, with a purpose to
keep up the existing service. 80
The postal officials say that mlsap-
prehension probably exists among large
number Of postmasters as to the real OBJ
iect of the circular sent out earlier in the
week asking them to report what saving
could be effected for the remainder of the
fiscal year in the way of dropping help,
Although the estimated receipts will be
IS, 900, O6O greater, they express the opin-
ion that the expenses will not be more
than 81, 600, 900 greater at the outside
figure, and they do not think they will
reach $500, 600 more.
