OBJECTS TO TELEGRAPH.
Loud Says Government Has No BUSH

Washington. FEB. 2S.-The house met
at II O'Clock today. MIR. Loud presented
complete conference report on the
postoffice appropriation bill. He eX-
planned that the most important
amendment agreed upon in conference
was that providing for experiments i'll
mail delivery in towns and cities not
having free delivery or rural free de-
livery service. He did not think it wise
to commit the government to mail de-
livery in every city, town and village.
and might ultimately involve an eX-
penditure Of $25. 900 900 per annum. The
amendment directing the postmaster
general to report upon the feasibility of
a government postal telegraph and tel
ephone system he also considered I'M
wise. He was opposed to the govern
inert entering upon a postal telegraph
scheme but it had been represented to
the conferees that this amendment
must be accepted to avoid cOmplica-
tons in the closing hours Of the session.
