FREE DELIVERY IS
 SELF SUSTAINING

Washington, November 26-First Assis- tant Postmaster-G General William John son, in his annual report, says the yearly incr ease in the postal revenues has re- suited in the free delivery service becom- ing self-sustaining.
 Of the gross postal revenues of the United States for the past fiscal year $74.- 295394 came from S66 free delivery cities The remaining 3eoo Presidential postoffices yielded s16, 063, ,252, while the 72, 459 fourth c,s ss postoffices produces sJS,913.51o.
 As rural free delivery reaches out into the country, giving equal facilities with out regard to locality he says it increases to that maintained in the free delivery cities where during the past five years 1t has averaged 8 per cent. At the end of the present fiscal year, Se00 rural routes will bs in successful operation, 600O heing in effect by December 2. The latter figure represents just 50 per cent of the applications for sueh service filed since it's inauguration five years ago. The in- flexible policy is announced hereafter of avoiding maintenance of unnecessary postofflces and superfjous star routes CO., temporaneously with rural free delivery Icl ties.
 On July 1 last the force of 43D1 rural car riers was serving 2,S40,e44 people at frac- tior over 75 certs per capita and on De- cember next 100000 of the rural popu- lation will be enjoying free delivery.
 Every establishment of a route, the re- port says, is followed promptly by a steady increase in the volume of mail both delivered and collected.

.SWITCHMEN MAKE
 FIASCO 0F STRIKE
Only One Railroad Was Se-
 riouSIy Affected
STRIKERS RETURN TO WORK
The Union Claims That the Strike Was a Success So Far as It Went and That 700 Would
 Go Out Soon.

Pittsburg November 26.-Judging by apparent conditions the switchmen's strike inaugurated this morning has proven a flat failure.
 The strike was ordered by the Swith- mems Union of North America, and the claim was made early in the day by the union officers that every road in the city with the exception of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago and the Pitts burg, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis would be tied up completely. The de- velopments of the day. however demon- strated that only one road, the Lehigh Valley, was seriously affected. The company officials say that within twen- ty-four hours they will have all the men they need and work will be resumed as usual. One hundred and fifty would be a high estimate of the number of men who struck on the other roads. None of these roads suffered much inconven- fence because new men were readily se- cured to take the place of the strikers and some of the men upon discovering that the strike order had not been gem orally obeyed, returned to their places.
 A meeting of the union was held this afternoon and the claim was made that the strike was a success as far as it had gone. and that within forty-eight hours the members of the union, about 700, would be out
 In their demands the switchmen asked for the enforcement of the standard scale of wages. This calls for twenty-seven cents an hour for day foreman and con. ductors, the night men to receive two cents more per hour, their work being more difficult and dangerous. Under the new schedule the day helpers and brake men are rated at twenty-five cents an hour and the night men at twenty-seven cents. The switchmen claim that the ton nsge handled by them in this city Is much greater than that handled by other men in cities.
 The strikers have not the sympathy of the other trainmens nnions

GOVERNMENT ARMY
 MARCHES ON COLON
General Alban Defeats Liberals
 and Crosses Bridge
AMERICAN MARINES ARRIVE.
Liberals Retreat From Emperador ow. ina to Lack of Ammunition. Transit Across lsthmus Is
 open-TraIns Running.

Colon, November 26.-The Colombian gunboat General Pinzon reappeared in Colon harbor this morning.
 Her commander said there were 100 only out of the original 500 troops carried by that vessel now on board the gun boat. The others had been landed at Porto Bello, about eighteen miles distant from Colon. The presumption is that the 300 men are marching overland to join the government forces under General AL ban, now at Mamai. The ground they have to cover Is difficult and the troops will doubtless occupy few days in reaching their destination.
 The Panama steam CT Osabay from New York, November 19, arrived at Colon this morning having on board about 100 ma rines who are to relieve the time ex- pired men of the United States battleship Iowa now at Panama
 The morning passenger train from Pan anna, due to arrive here at Il o'clock, has not arrived up to 3:30 D. m. Tele- graphic communication between here and Panama is interrupted. This is conclusive proof that fighting Is going on in the vicinity of Barbacoa, The result is as yet unknown.
 The afternoon passenger train from here for Panama carried the hundred marines of the Iowa and the passengers who arrived by the steamer Osabay.
 The liberal forces control San Pablo station and Barbacoa, where there is long iron bridge over the Chagres river. This is a critical point. offering the liber- als splendid point of attack should the governm ent forces attempt to cross the bridge. It Is generally admitted that if General Alban succeeds in crossing the river at Barbacoa his march toward Colon will be an easy task. General Lugo. the liberal commander. is at Bar bacoa.
 ] he Liberals retreated from Emperador owing to lack of ammunition. They ad- init having lost sixty men in killed and wounded at Emperador, and that among the number was Colonel Cyas, but they claim that the government lnss was over 150 men in killed and wounded.
 The armored train which went over the railroad yesterday having on board Cap tain Perry of the Iowa and machine guns and flying the American flag, was sent as demonstrative force, and will not be continued daily. Passenger trains, however, will carry guard

With Winchester rifles always ready for action. with huge revolvers buckeled about their waists and with a large sum of money in their possession a man and a woman are said to be camping in a cave on Red mountain. The police are Investigating the strange story and be- lieve the pair to be Texas desperadoes who have come here to dispose of gains possibly secured by train robberies.
 To Chief of Police Austin the presence of the couple and the stories of their desperate appearances were told by members of a mountain camping party. These reports to the police department said that the couple had told that they were from Texas where they were called desperadoes.
 Chief Austin detailed special officers Cole and Shirley to go on the mountain and search for the couple. The of ficers, heavily armed, spent more than day in searching. but failed to find them. It Is possible they will make an other attempt to catch the pair.
 The dress and general appearance of the man is said to indicate the picture sque wild cowboy or Western despera- doe. That of the woman is also said to be such as characterizes a woman of the plains. Her skirts are said to be short and of rough corduroy. She is described as being of more than ordinary height weighing about 155 pounds, with black hair and rather dark complexion. She appears to be a woman with some edu- cation and marks of beauty.
 When seen she has always had a belt buckled about her waist, which supported holste1e ed revolver Her nat is of the wi6e, felt variety, brown of color with a leather band about it. At times she carries a Winchester rife in addition to Ter re yolver.
 1he man is said to carry a Wincnester rife at all times. His trousers are de- scribed as beng mad- of dark corduroy, his coat of heavy brown cioth and his hat of light brown wool. He wears a belt with revolvers and cartridges OH the sides.
 The couple are said to have large sum of money and many Saluatle jewels. All of these they guard very carefully, not allowing any person to approach where they are in hiding. The two, it is said. live in cave and have no servants. Their supplies gre secured through the services of negroes met on the mountaoin side.
