MAY REGISTER LETTERS.
Postof1ce Department Issues Some
Instructions.

The new system of registration Of
letters by carriers viii be put in opera

day of this month.
The postoffice department informs
the public that in giving to residents of
cities the advantage of having their
letters registered at their own door. the
provisions OF the "eight-hour law as
applied to carriers, make it necessary
for the department to exact certain
requirements, which, though easy of
fulfillment, are nevertheless impera-
tive.
1. Only letters can be registered, and
they must be ready in every respect
when the carrier calls, for he is for
hidden, on pain of dismissal, to wait
even a fraction Of q minute longer
than is necessary to write the recent.
2. Every letter must be Enclosed in an
envelope strong enough to safely carry

New York, May 12-The New York
Financier says this week: After
! continuous expansion in loans, which
| lasted over six weeks and added S4S,
| 100000 to the totals OF the New York
banks, the clearing house institutions
reported May II a decrease OF $2S7. 800
in the loan item. The decrease Is OF
small moment, but it is interesting at
| this time as showing the elimination
Of operations which have been a con-
slant factor IN the weekly reports for
considerable period. The assertion has
been made that the New York banks
are carrying sterling to the amount Of
sac 600, 600 This, plainly interpreted,
means that they are not loaning that
amount to Europe. While there is no
means Of verifying the statement,
there is no question that the rise in
loans has been due more or less to that
cause.
At any rate, now that actual exports
Of gold are being made. 1t is not to be
expected that the banks will add to
outstanding commitments. It has been
expected that the S14, COG, 000 loan of the
Pennsylvania Railroad company would
influence the current statement, but
there is authority for saying that this
transaction was completed too late to
enter the statement calculation. and
UCSlNCE IUdL AuQlCu lcEBC DCICEuLdSC
went to trust companies and Philadel-
phia institutions.
The cash changes in the statement
are immaterial. The banks lost to the
treasury on account of gold exports and
interior gains did not offset these de-
creases. The result was a decrease Of
1917, 900 in cash holdings This was not
evenly distributed, as one bank alone
reported an increase OF $4,000 600 in
specie. The changes in loans and cash
account for the decrease Of 81, 900 ,00G
in deposits. the first shrinkage noted
since March "A, after steady rise
amounting to $67. 000. 600 The surplus
reserve for the week was reduced $685.
$50, and now stands at 1883 .725. Taken
as whole, the statement IS better than
had heen expected.
The chief interest Tor the week or
two centers in the volume OF possible
gold exports. Already the movements
amount to over $4,000 900. The gold has
gone to France, and il England does
not demand remittances, the shipments
may be less than now indicated. It is
worthy Of note that time loans are row
being engaged to run over the presi-
Dental election, the impression being
that money rates will harden consider
ably later on. In 1895 money during the
lattep part Of the presidential contest
loaned at 100 per cent and above.
New York still continues to be the
cheapest money center 1.-THE world.

PIANO is PAID FOR.
Good News For Friends of franklin
School.

About 500 was cleared at the art ex-
hibit at the Franklin school on Thurs
day afternoon and evening. This will
enable the committee to clear the debt
on the piano, and also have a fund for
the purchasing Of pictures for the
school building.
Too much praise cannot be given to
this committee for the success they
have achieved in these entertainments,
as they have purchased and paid for a
piano within four months, and by their
untiring efforts will be able to have
the walls of the building decorated with
beautiful pictures.
The instrumental music furnished at
the above entertainment by Misses
