QUESTION OF POSTAL FRAUDS.

Wood Has Ordered That All Neely's
Property in Cuba Shall Be Placed
Under Government Control.

Havana. May 9.-The postal frauds
have been the principal topic of conversa-
ton in Havana today although as yet the
papers have scarcely alluded to the mat
ter. The department of posts admits a
shortage of $4,000. but further investiga-
ton has brought to light the fact that in
July last year the receipts showed fall
ing off of about $4,000 from the average
of the months previous and that the
shortage has been kept up ever since. 1t
appears that about that time director of
posts Rathbone gave orders for the de-
struction of SAIL 900 worth of Surcharge
stamps on account of the issues of new
stamp This work of destruction was left
in the hands of Charles F. w. Neeley and
his assistants but it is now believed that
none of these stamps were destroyed, the
theory being that they were sent out with
the new stamps. The Havana receipts
have been short about $1S, 900 a month, ac-
cording to the books.

Of interest which came before tOday's

arrested in Rochester, n. Y., and the
question arose as to whether the United
States or Cuba Was responsible for the
amount of the defalcation. 1t seemed to
be the opinion Of all the members pres
ent that as Neeley was appointed by the
United States and that in adminis-
tering the affairs in the island this Gov
ernment is acting in a sense as a trustee,
1t therefore is responsible for the short
age and can proceed against Naeley's
bondsmen for the amount involved 1t
was practically settled too. that NAeley
would be taken back to Havana for trial

FOR EIGHT HOURS,
Chairman Gardner Makes a Report to
the House.

Washington, May SIN view of the
elght-hour movement throughout the
country the report made to the house Of
representatives by Chairman Gardner Of
the committee on labor of the Gardner
eight hour bill and general subject af
eight-hour legislation has timely in
terest The bill provides clause in all
government contracts that the labor un-
der the contract shall not exceed .igat
hours daily. and says:
Economists who advocate the eight
hour day contend with great plausihiliry
that the shorter day results in an in
crease of wages without an increase Of
price, as greater consumption enlargas
production and the larger the scale of
production the cheaper the given article
is produced
The report presents an elaborate re-
view of the eight-hour legislation in all
the states and the previous eight hour
statutes enacted by the federal govern
ment.
