POsTOFFIcE RECEIPTS LARGE.
showing of the Savannah ONCE for
the Last six Months.

Postmaster Doyle received a letter YES
Heath, acknowledging the receipt of his
last quarters report and congratulating
him upon the excellent showing made by
the Savannah office. He also expressed
the hope that there might be a correspond
ing increase in business during the rp,
nander of the year.
The assistant postmaster general also
took occasion to state that the total vol
ume of money order business for the six
months ending Dec. 81 for the entire coun-
try was $4,000 900 in excess of the volume
of business for the corresponding period of
the previous gear, and that reports of in
creased business have reached the de-
partment from many other places than Sa-
vannah.
MIR. Doyle remarked that Savannah had
contributed largely to the increased vol
ume of money order business During
the last fall" he said 1--WE had all that
we could handle and l spent a good part
of my time in the money order DEPART
ment During twenty-five days of De-
cember We handled over $l5i000 in ,he
money order department alone. The
business has been heavy so far this year
bul ipl QuANC ~ ASeANJ 90 IL was last ran.
The soldiers, of course, have been largely
responsible for the increase. Many Of
the discharged men have adopted the plan
of buying money orders payable to them
selves at their homes so as 20 put the Dos
sibility of loss out of the question"
The postotiice receipts for the last quar-
ter show a heavy proportonate increase
though the amount of increase is NOT SD
great. For the first quarter of 1897 the
postofiice receipts were $27,525.4 As; for 1895
$sl, 1850, and FOR 1899. $34,2S5.7S The last
quarter Of 1898 showed stil heavier in,

OF 1891 $S250l.76; of 1898, $S9. 72s. so

office, which will be shortly, and the CON
tinued increase of business, some addt-
tons to the postofiice force are, likely to
be needed

GEO. WHITES DEPARTURE.
Savannah Grocery Company Thinks
1t Is Due to a shortage.

The Savannah Grocery Company has
been looking into the accounts Of George
H. White, its city salesman, who has been
missing for several days. but 1t was not
until yesterday that sufficient evidence
was obtained to warrant putting the case
in the hands of detectives. 1t is pretty
certain that White win be arrested on
sight. though the task Of finding him
promises to be a difficult one.
There was a suspicion, It is stated. from
the time Witte disappeared, that it was
on account of the condition of his ac-
counts with the grocery company. day
or two before he left, 1t Is said Mr. Jonas
Mendel, manager OF the company, called
his attention to accounts that were long
past due, and insisted that they be col
lected. Whether this insistence on the
part of Mr.. Mendel was the cause of the
departure is not known. bat the collect
or was not seen afterward. His failure
10 show up caused inquiries to be made,
but even Whites family were unable to
give any Information as TO why he had
left or where he had gone. They were
as much In the dark as Others, being I'M
able 20 account for the missing man.
Fears were expressed for his safety,
though it is said this was not the case
with those connected with the grocery
company who believed from the start
that business matters had something to
do with the departure
An officer of the company was seen yes
terday by a Morning News reporter. and
was asked whether Whites accounts were
short. At the time the officer was en-
gagged with detectives, with whom he was
discussing the affair. 1t was stated as a
positive fact by the officer that the ac-
counts had been found short In some cases,
though it cannot be told yet what the
shortage Is.
The officer went on to say it was an easy
matter for collectors 10 impose upon their
employers, as accounts are frequently left
in their hands for months at time, dur
ing which they can withhold funds that
have been collected. The officer said he
could not make an estimate as to the az
legged shortage. but the matter will be
looked into thoroughly in the next few
days. That there Is something wrong
seems evidenced in the desire of the com
pany 70 bring about the collectors arrest.
The report that Whites departure is due
to an alleged shortage win be received as
a blow by his friends in Savannah He
not only had the implicit confidence of the
Savannah Grocery Company, with whom
he had been a trusted employe for many
years but he was generally regarded as a
man of unimpeachable character.

MAY HAVE A BIG SALE.
Government VIII Probably Sell on
surplus stock Here.

It is probable there will be a great sale
of government stock at Savannah. Such
sales have been held at Macon and other
places, and one is soon to take place at
Chickamauga. il win not be a disposal of
condemned stock, but rather of a surplus.
The government finds that with the muster
out of troops necessity for such great
numbers of horses and mules the latter
particularly, does not exist.
The sales have been successful wherever
held, and the government has asked Col
Belhnger for his opinion as TO the advisa-
bility of putting up the surplus stock at
this place. The depot quartermaster re-
ply was that this is probably as good a
market as Macon or Chickamauga.
II is likely that the government win act
upon the report and that a sale of horses
and mules Win soon be advertised Many
buyers will be attracted from neighboring
places by a sale of such magnitude as il
will be. Turpentine operators will see a
chance to buy up stock cheap, and local
dealers in stock and those in need of horses
or mules win be heard at the sale.

WILL WRITE ON MAY 20.
Contest for the Daughters of the
COnfederacy Medal Postponed.

The contest for the medal offered by the
Daughters of the Confederacy for the
best essay upon some one of four sub
jects relating to the Confederate states
by pupil of the High School or the pri-
vete schools of the city will not take
place May 10 as was the intention. Ow-
ing to the desire of several of the mem
bers of the local chapter to attend the
Confederate reunion at Charleston, 1t has
been decided to postpone the writing of
the essays until May 20. The ladies wish
TO be present when the essays are writ

One of the subjects included among
those from which the selection of the one
upon which the Young people are TO write
is to be made has been dropped. That is

four are left to be read up. They are Gen.
Stonewall Jackson and the Valley Cam
paign,' THE Naval Engagements of the
Civil War; Jefferson Davis, President
OF the Confederate States" and THE
War From Sumter through the First Bat
tie Of Manassas" References have been
given out in the schools, and many of
the pupils have read up on the subjects
with the view of entering the contest. A
number of names have been handed in,
and 1t is expected there will be quite a
warm contest.
On the birthday of jefferson Davis June
3, the ladies will present the medal to the
successful contestant. The pupils will have
to write their essays at the Chatham Acad-
envy. In one of the rooms of that building
the subject selected from among the four

books or any other help they will be ex-
pected to prepare their papers. The essays
will be written in the presence of one or
more teachers.
To the pupil who is successful much
praise viii be due. The preparation Of
mind necessary for the contest involves
considerable work, and natural ability and
aptitude win also figure in the winning of
the medal.

The creditors met pursuant to adjourn

O'Clock, for the purpose of examining the
bankrupts and completing business that
had. not received attention at the former
meeting. Almost all of the creditors,
over 100 in number. were present or repre-
scented. AT the outset Mr. Gigniliat Of
counsel for the bankrupt company made
a statement of Its affairs TO the creditors
and emphasized his clients desire to act
fairly land souarely and discharge, as far
as the circumstances of itself and it's
stockholders permitted, every dollar of its
obligations. He closed his talk by maxi

As soon as the record of the proceedings

about this being granted and with it will

DON'T JAM THE LETTER BOXES.
They Were Not Made For Papers nnc
Packages.

Postmaster Doyle requests that people
who have newspapers to mail will not at
tempt TO jam them into the letter boxes
The letter boxes were not made to re-
ceive papers, he says. 1t is frequently
the case that paper, in wrapper of
course. is squeezed through the small
opening in the letter box and becomes
damned on the inside In such a way as to
prevent letters from being inserted The
consequence is that the next person who
comes along with letters to mail thinks
that the box is full and has to seek an
other box much to his dissatisfaction.
Papers and packages should either be
taken TO one OF the large boxes provided
for such purposes or left on top Of tho
letter boxes.
