POSTAL RECOMMENDATIONS.
Some of the Most Important to Be
Made to Congress-,

8 WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-First Assist
ant Postmaster General Perry S. Heath,
in his forthcoming annual report, will
recommend that congress shall fix the
sala ries of assistant postmasters at so
pe- cent of that of postmasters; that
postoffice clerks shall be classified on the
same basis as letter carriers, and railway
postal clerks; that the postoffice appro-
pria ton shall be made interchangeable;
that the unexpected balance of one ap-
prorriation may be transferred to other
appropriations, and that where consolida-
ton of postoffices Is deemed advisable,
and same may be effected under existing
law, the money saved thereby be made
available for clerk hire and other ex-
penses at the newly established offices.
The department has again urged the
special attention of congress to the nee
essity for a Reconsideration of clerks in
first and second class postofflces.
The department will also ask for a sub
stantial increase for additional clerks,
also for the payment of substitutes for
clerks on vacation In the smaller offices,
and.a material increase in the appropria-
ton for the temporary clerks at summer
resorts, election and holiday services

KIMBERLEY SAFE.

unity of BOers.

LONDON, Oct. PA dispatch to the
Morning Post from Kimberley, dated Oct.
q. via Orange river, Oct. "a, says:
"An armored train was engaged this
evening; one of our men was killed, and
two trucks of dynamite were removed
from the town for safety, and were blown
up by the Beers. The Boer loss is un-
certain The Boer artillery moved around,
trying to draw the force covering the
town. There was a small engagement,
but nothing of consequence happened. We
are completely isolated, but as safe as
bank Not one man has left. Rain is ap-
proeching. Our troops met the enemy,
cutting the line today, and a Maxim gun
on the train did good work, and cleared
away the Wreckers."

Fight to the Death

LONDON, Oct 25.-The Standards spe-
cial correspondent with the forces at
Ladysmith, who was captured by the
Beers and released at the battle of
Elandslaagte, in describing his expert
ences, says:
.'Unsoldierly as the Beers might seem,
there was no mistaking their physical fit
ness. Nearly all of them are strong, pow
erfully-built men, while few are veri-
table giants. They were all in highest
spirits; for instance, on the night of our
capture our field cornet was induced to
preside over an impromptu smoking con-
cert. 1t was amusing to see a Johannes
burger playing the piano with his gun
still slung over his shoulder, while his
more rustic comrades stood around spell
bound They sang "Transvaal Volkslied"
with immense fervor. The one subject of
their talk was their resolute determina-
ton to fight to the last for the independ-
ence of their country"

IEDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Oct 25-At a
meeting of the Indiana State Bankers as
soeiation today Mr.. William c. Cornwall,
of Buffalo, N. Y, delivered an address en-
titled THE Bankers Duty as Educator. y
He said among other things
.'As an educator IT is to urge his rep
resentative at Washington in the Fifty
sixth congress to action which shall be
final, at least as to the gold standard and
the greenback, placing firm foundation
(Which is the least the business world has
a right to demand) under our prosperous
con mercial structure; action which has
already been too long delayed perhaps
mere than for any other reason because
the bankers have not done their duty, in
forming themselves, educating others and
insisting on the righteous settlement of a
question which is SO thoroughly within
their province"

HAVANA, Oct. 25.-Cuban opinion Is
against the order of the civil governor
of Havana, Gen. Rivera, prohibiting cock
fights. The opposition is also considered
in the nature of a protest against the
failure of Gov. Gen. Brooke to prohibit
cock fighting at the time he issued the
order against bull fighting. A man to
whom Gen. Rivera refused permit for
cock fight has written to La Lucha to
say that cock fighting Is particularly
popular among the Cubans, and that ie
Gen. Rivera will not allow it he intends
to appeal to the governor general.

LONDON, Oct GA dispatch to the

day, says
1.-The detachment of the Eighteenth
Hussars sent from Glencoe to intercept
the retreat of the Beers from Glands
laagte was cut off by the enemy. Under
Sergeant Baldrey they brilliantly fought
their way across the Biggarsberg, the
enemy pursuing and firing at them at a
q range of 300 yards, along the pass.
They arrived here ct 10 o'clock this morn
ing Three of the troop are missing, oW-
ing to the breakdown Of their horses.
The Beers used a Maxim. lieutenant
of the hussars with a party was driven
back to Glencoe. The hussars were fired
at as far down AS Modderspruit."
Among the touching incidents of the
field related, Capt. Peyton, of the Man
chester regiment, who was wounded at
Elandslaagte. said the wounded had to
lie on the field throughout the bitterly
cold night. drenched by the rain. One
man in his regiment placed his arm
around Capt. PeytOn through the whole
night to give him the warmth OF his
body.
It appears that the Gordon Highlanders
and the Manchesters bore themSelvl
with reckless courage. To this was due
the fact that they suffered so heavily.
The men were keen to wipe out the In
suits leveled at them after Majuba by the
Beers, who taunted them with being
