A COSTLY SCHEME.
POstal Pneumatic Tubes Prove Ex-
pensive and of Little Real Ad-
vantage In Time Gained.

The hearing on the postal pneumat-
ic tube system before the house COM
mittee on post Offices and post roads
develops the fact that the concern
proposes to ask the government to
pay an annual rental of 81, 500, 900 for
this service. This is equal to the in
terest on $1OO, 600 of government
bonds. 1t will be seen, therefore, at
glance what an enormous expense
this would entail upon the govern
ment. Such system is now in opera
ton in New York, but at an excessive
cost. While it does expedite some
mails, the time saved is slight anL
entirely disproportionate to the enor.
nous expense of the system.
The government is now asked not
to install a system of its own, but to
pay a private corporation ten per
cent. annually on the money invested
and this in spite of the fact that the
government can get all the money il
wants for 21s per cent. Thus will the
concern make clear profit of N
per sent.
