Phillipsville, Ia, Mar. 81

Phillipsville, Ia, Mar. 81, 1900.
Editor Courier: In reading an item
in your paper of March 20, j notice
where it says that the Berwind White
Coal Mining, company has made an adj.
vancesof 20 per cent in wages, which
puts them on basis of 60 cents per
gross ton, the highest wages paid dur
ing the last thirty years, and per
cent more than was ever paid before
Of course that may be all right as you
refer to a company which did not ex-
ist SO long ago, but there are other.
large concerns mining in the same dis
trict which paid so cents per gross ton
in 1872 and 1878, but it took the down
ward course at that time and contin-
ued to go down until it was AT the 40
cent point, like 4 ship in distress with
the flag at half mast. That was when
Houtzdale, Clearfield county, Pennsyl-
vania, opened extensively. The com
pany referred to did not open until
1874 in Houtzdale, but they We're up
in another county working a smaller
vein years before. This is from a man
who worked for the said company in
1878, and ] think that ii they are pay
ing 60 cents per ton it will be goodbye
to Iowa coal for three pounds of pow
der will do two men almost month;
the vein is six feet of clean, soft coal
and lit us mined underneath, often fall
ing without powder, and sometimes
the miners are under it when it falls,
but that is for want of a support
when that happens. Ed. Pasco.

NOT EXACTLY AN APOLOGY.
PauncefOte Long Ago Disavoyged Cen.
sOr's Action in Opening Mail.


Washington, March 2S.-It is said at
the state department regarding the
stor- that Great Britain has apologized
to this government for the action of
the censor in opening letters addressed
20 the United States consul at Preto-
ria, that the United States government
has made no demand upon the British
government for an apology, as the Off
Gals say that Mr.. Aacrum, who was
consul at Pretoria when the mail is
said TO have been opened, made no
official complaints on that subject,
and thus the state department
had nothing official before it to serve
as basis for demand for an apollo
gy.
As stated before, however, the British
government itself voluntarily took no.
tice of Mr.. Macrum's complaint, and
finding that jas an incident to the
transfer of a large quantity Of mail
from Durham (Which was the place
where our consular mail was usually
landed) to Cape Town, resulting in
great CONGESTION and the handling OF
mail by new agents, there had been an
indiscriminate opening of letters which
probably had affected the consular
mail with others, Lord Pauncefote,
speaking for his government, discover
ed the action of the censor and de-
clared it was unauthorized in respect
TO Mr.. Macrum's mail. This assurance
was given long ago, and some of the
members of the house committee on
foreign affcirs We're made acquainted
with it at the time.

is POPULAR.
The New Street Car Mail Service Spring
Into Immediate Popularity.

From. Wednesdays Daily.
The new street car mail collection
service was successfully inangurated
today in accordance with the an
nouncemen't made in the Courier yes
.terday. The people were evidently
ready to welcome the new service, as
it has sprung into immediate popular
|ity. The first collection, at IL O'clock
|fthis morning, showed that sixty let
tiers had heenr deposited in the street
car mail boxes up to that hour. In
order that the service may be fully
understood, we repeat some of the an
nouncements made yesterday.
The collections from the street car
mail boxes are made as the cars pass
the corner of Market and Second
streets, at IL a. M, p. m. and 1880 p.
M, and a final collection for the day
is made after the cars go into the barn
between IL and 10 o'clock p. m. These
collections will enable all mail to be
forwarded by the first trains leaving
the city, and the night service will be
found especially important. All mail
deposited in the street car mail boxes
up to 1890 p. M, at which hour the
cars are taken off for the night, will
be forwarded on the fast trains leav-
ing the city after midnight, and mail
going east will be in Chicago at $3.50
d. m.
The public will please keep in mind
that the evening collection heretofore
made on Church street, on the South
Side at Z p. M, will be discontinued,
also the evening collection heretofore
made from street letter boxes on Sec
ond and Main streets, east of Union
and Ash streets, and west of Wapello
and Mclean streets. The street car
service takes the place of these collec-
tons and gives later and better SER
vice, and the time saved by the car
riers in this way is utilized in extend
ing the regular letter carrier service
to the Dain addition on the South Side.
Improved Money order Service.
The postoffice department has issued
an order to all postoffices OF the first
and second class:
1. To cash all money orders, irre,
spective of the place of payment nam
ed in such order.
2. To cash any money order drawn
from such office, irrespective Of the
fact that the corresponding advice
Iudy uoU nave AcaSLeO pHS ciA'SS NPon
which drawn.
The provisions of this order have
been tested experimentally at some oil
the larger Offices, including Ottnmwa
and have been found to work with
entire satisfaction. and to be mater.
ial Improvement in the money order
system. BY the provisions OF this or
der, any money order may be cashed al
any office OF the first and second class
es, whether or not the corresponding
advice be on file at such office, and
provided, of course, that the order is
not inyalidated by age, is free from
alteration and is apparently regular in
all other respects The non receipt OF
an advice will no longer be a cause for
delay in the payment of an order pre-.
sented at the office upon which it is
drawn.
