AN EXPERIMENTAL GROUND
Proposed Department Plans Worked
Out in Washington post office.

Washington, Aug. 16.-The cit!
| postoffice in this city is regarded a,
an experimental <s;ation for the post
office department, and many of tn.
new devices which come into use al
over the country are tested aere. Sup
erintendent Bell of the free delivery
service is now examining a number ot
devices for the purpose of registering
the time collections are made at mai
boxes throughout the city. 1t occa
sionally. though rarely, happens tha
the carrier fails TO get mail from
one of the boxes on his route. and
serious delays are likely to follow a:
a consequence of such neglect.
\ number of plans have been pro
posed to the department to provide i
Check on the carrier which will show
if a single collection is overlooked OF
neglected. One is through means OF
card marked with the number, of
the box and time of collection. which
drops out with the mail as II is col
lected. Another plan is for tue col
lector to stamp the time of the collec-
ion on a strip, which becomes a record
of the office.
Quite an elaborate plan is to have
electrical come ction between the post
office and all of the 1,200 boxes, so
that an arnunciator at the office vii
Indicate when the mail boxes are
opened This plan would involve the
extensive tearing up of the streets in
order to put the necessary wires IN
der ground, and would probably ba
enormously expensive, even if con-
gress should grant the permission
necessary for the tearing up of the
streets.
Major Bell yesterday made Il trial
with an automobile in the collection of
mail from the boxes. He personally
collected the mail over one carriers
route. but though there was)a great
saving of tfme, the test Was not of 4
character to permit any reliable esti
mate TO be made of what the horse
less vehicle would be worth to the
government in both the saving of
money and in Increased efficiency. Be
fore this system can be considered sat

built so that the carrier cannot only
operate it. but can easily step out and

OIen

Washington. Aug. 16.-Secretary
Root has been N consultation with
the officers of the quartermaster's de
partme IL with view to inspecting the
movement Of the Philippine reinforce
Hlents. and as result, this afternoon
directed that four additional trans
ports be chartered. They are the
Pueblo, the Belgian King, thte Coium-
bia and the Charles F. Nelson. These
four ships have u capacity of $3.50

Francisco and the Columbia ait Port
land. The other two vessels are
expected to arrive at San Francisco in
about ten days and it is expected that
all of them will be ready to sail for
Manila by September 10.
1t is Secretary Roofs desire tina Is
the entire body of reinforcements for
General Otis army may reach the
Philippines for service during the
month of October at the latest. ard
he has been negotiating for additional
ships. 1t is now believed that all of
the ten regiments will have landed at
Manila by the time the dry season
opens. A short and successful cam
Iaign of this new army would, of
course. 0ibviate the necessity of send
ing any addi UiOnaI volunteers to the
Philippines. and the plans under con-
at the war department are
said to be predicated on that idea, ii
being the intention that whatever
troops may be recruited Will be held
in reserve Tor possible contingencies.

Consul Erdman Secure Correction of

Washington. Aug. 16-An effort to
prejudice public and official sentiment
in Germany concerning American
tariff laws has recently been counter
acted by Consul Erdman at Breslau.

representative in the German reich
stag. stating that. on account of the
tariff of one and one-half cents per
pound on zinc dusts, 1T is now i'm
possible TO send ;he Germans product

ANTI-GOEBELITES
An Enthusiastic Gathering at Lex.

Lexington, Ky, Aug. 1G. = The
state convention called by the recent
Lexington conference for the purpose
of nominating an santi-GoebeI ticket
assembled here shortly after noon to-
day with p. 2. JohnstoD presiding.
Every county in the state was repre-
scented by accredited delegates and in
addition the convention hall was
packed with well known politicians
who have declared themselves in oppo-
sitiOn to the ticket named at the
Louisville convention. Conspicuous
among those who Occupied seats on the
platform when the convention was
called TO order was Ex-Governor John
Young Brown, Colonel W. C. P. Breck-
inridge, and Congressman Evan E.
Settle.
The appearance of Ex-Governor
Brown was the signal for wild and en-
thusiastic cheering. He was repeated
ly hailed as the greatest democrat in
Kentucky" and the enthusiasm with
which he was welcomed renders it
apparent that there will be no oppo-
sitiOn to his name heading the ticket
that will be named late this afternoon
by the convention.
The platform will deal largely with
state issues. As regards natioral af
fairs the resolutions will indorse the
Chicago platform, though it is expect
ed that the financial question will be
touched upon as lightly as possible so
as to avoid giving offense to the gold
many of whom are expect
ed to join issues with the boilers in
their opposition to the Goebel ticket.
