STAMP DESIGNS FOR 1901.

Special Issue for Pan-Amer.can EXPO
sition is Considered.
WASHINGTON. April 1s.-Designs for
the special issue of postage stamps con-
tenrplated for the Pan-American EXPOSE
ton at Buffalo have been tenta lively
adopted by the Post-Ofiice Department
In the issue are to be included 1-cent, =
cent. 4-cent. 5-cent, Scent and io-cent
stsnaps-the denon,ina atoms used for cir
culars, letters (louble-weisht letters, Tor
eign mail, registered fees and combined
registry and postage fees.
On one stamp will be engraved picture
of an American lake steamer. Another
Will include picture of some modern,
weil-equipped through express train. a
third is to depict a bridge over Niagara
Falls and the falls. IF suitable picture
can be obtained, a fourth will include
view of the canal locks at Sault Ste. Ma
RE The automobile is TO be made the
subject of a fifth.
All these designs typify artificial aids
TO commerce. For the sixth stamp the
department. Is somewhat puzzled for a
proper development OF that idea. It has
been suggested the colonial desire for
