RECOMMENDS RATES
 FOR NEWSPAPERS
ThirdAssistant Postmaster Gen.
 eral Makes a Report
PRIVILEGES ARE ABUSED
He Says, However, That It ls Alto eether Too Soon for Considering the Reduction to One Cent
 In Letter Rates.

Washington, November 17.-Edwin c. Madde, third assistant postmaster gen era1, in his annual report made public today, recommends the establishment of the following postage ratess
 A new rate of cents a pound for all publications now admitted to ths second. class mail except daily, tri-weeiSly semi weekly and weekly newspapers, in the generally understood sense of the word newspaper
 This rate Is to be paid on the bulk weight without regard to the number of rieoes.
 The consolidation of the third and fourth classes of mail matter and thai the postage thereon be at the rate of l cent for each two ounces or fraction thereof, to be prepaid.
 Congress is also asked to authorize the ps stmaster general to accept, under suit able regulations, mailings of large quan- titles of identical pieces If printed mat ter and small articles of merchandise without the necessity of aifsxine postage stamps to ths individual pieces. The recommendation for the cents a hundred rate Is an outgrowth of the in- Y0SIlkALlOn lnlO lIlc AD1StS Ol tht S0NOAl0- class mail privileges. MT. Madden said that many of the cheaper class of period fcals would be given away If the law would permit. The practice it is said, is to maintain the flctitior of a subscription price and to give back its equivalent in premium.
 ! Mr. Madden says: "No one will ques- ton the public benefit of genuine news papers and for these an absolutely free rate might be granted if the privilege could be properly congned. But I am constrained to say that it is unjustihable to longer tax the people for any part of the cost of distribution in the mails of any other class of periodical publications.
 Concerning the public impression that 1-cent postage is probable in the near future, MT. Madden says it is altogether too soon to consider reduction Of the letter rate of postage on the mere basis that the reforms in second-ciass mail matter will save enough to the govern ment to compensate 1t for the loss Of revenue through the reduction of the letter rate.
 Had the proposed 4-cent per pound rate and this anticipated rate of 1 cent per one-half ounce for letters existed during the last fiscal year" Madden says, 'the result. based upon an estimate, would have been an aggregate estimated deficiency of $19,000,000"
 MT. Madden says that nearly $4,000,000 was expended during the year on ac- count of experimental rural free delivery. and that had 1t not been for this large expenditure the postal service for the fiscal year 1902 would have been self-sus- taining, and would have nac more than s1. GOO 900 to its credit

were included fin little pamphlet which I sent out after the settlement of the steel strike in 1901. I claimed that we were entitled to the aid of the American Federation of Labor and inasmuch as we did not get it. charges were made that President Gompers had acted in man. ner unfriendly to the cause of organized labor
 q am confident that the members of our organization are too loyal to be drawn away by any such proceeding as this, and I am not worrying about the matter in the least"
 MT. Gompers said:
 ''The charges cannot be upheld because there Is no truth in them.
 ''The best years of my life have been given to the cause of organized labor and have never had a thought or performed an action which was not intended for its advancement. welcome any investiga- tion. There has been TO collusion between MT. Sheridan and myself regarding the presentation of his resolntipn. I knew It was coming and so did Mir. Shaffer. My hope is that the special committee act promptly; that It's report may follow closely upon the charges"
 Mir. Sheridan declined to discuss the resolution at length, saying that 1t spoke for itself
 '1 wish to deny, however, he said. "that am acting with MT. Gompers. am not an admirer of his and if when we elect a president his Is the only name mentioned I will not vote for him.
 When asked if Mir Shafers construction of the motives actuating the introduction of the resolution was correct, Mir. Sheri- dan would only say:
 "It was not introduced for the purpose of doing good to Gompers.a That Is all I care to say"

 Use for Doubling.

Albany, N. r.. November 17.--At the session of the general missionary confer ence of the Methodist Episcopal church here today a spirited debate took place on he question of increasing the amount to be devoted to missionary work iD the south. It was suggested that 1t would be advisable to spend the money in quarters where the Methodist Episcopal church. South, was not engaged Bishop Hartsell resented this. saying: Tt is proposed to force us out of the south, while Provi- dence in it's own good time may bring us together with our southern brethren. do not see that 1t is necessary to antIci- Late Providence"
 Thank God the bloody shirt does not wave any longer" said Bishop Walden. '.There is no necessity of this doubling up ofs missionary work. We have two theologit al colleges near the City of Mexico, where only one is needed. When you come to talk of Providence, 1t should be our business to cultivate the prelimi- nary conditions necessary to a union of the church so as to be ready for the pos- sible work of Providence"
 These sums were apportioned for mis-
  sionary work in the south:

HUNDREDS OF LIVES LOST.
Passengers From Central America Re port Great Loss of Life By Volcano.

Panama, Colombia, November r.-Pass- engers from Central America who arrived here yesterday report the complete de- struction of the territory surrounding the volcano Santa Maria. province of Quezal- tenango, Guatemala, in consequence of the recent eruption. The adjacent vil- lages, the rich coffee plantations, with over $sO0,OO0 worth of coffee stored in bags, and hundreds of lives, were lost.
 Refugees are arriving at the port of Champerico. Over 200 fugitives sailed from San Jose De Guatemala on the Pa ciflc mail steamer The exchange is ris- ing by leaps and now stands at 12.00 The strict censorship which has been estab- lished in Guatemala makes 1t impossible to get the exact news regarding the situ- ation there The port of Puerto Barrios is reported to have been closed.

URIBE-URIBE HAS
 NOT BEEN KILLED
GOVERNMENT HAS DECIDED NOT
 TO EXECUTE REVOLUTIONARY cENERAL-REBELs MIGHT KILL THEIR PRISONERS IN REVENGE.

San Jose. Costa Rica, November IT, Colombian revolutionary sources. a bat tie has taken place between the Colom- bien goy ernuent and the insurgent forces at Agua Dulce. The government gum boats Chucuito and Bogota were on their way hither to take over and convey back with them the war vessel Poaz, which formerly belonged to Costa Rica and which was purchased by the Colombian gov ernment at its sale by auction early in September. The Bogota, according to the reports, is now on her way back to Panama in a disabled condition as a re- suit of the engagement, five officers and fifteen of her crew being reported killed.
 The whereabouts of the revolutionary eunboat Padilla is unknown. The Costa Rican authorities refuse to permit Co., lombia to arm the Pcaz at this port, and the vessel is being steadily watched to see that no arms or ammunition are taken on board.
 It appears that the sentence of death passed on the revolutionary general, Uribe- Uribe, who recently capitulated to the government forces, was not carried out because General Perdomo observed that General Herrera of the revolutionary forces has fourteen government generals as prisoners, and he might avenge the death of Uribe-Ur on them.
 o dispatch from Panama. November l2, gave an account of a fight between the Bogoto, formerly the Jessie Banning of San Fransico, and two revolutionary schooners. Of the latter one was capt ured by the Bogota and the other burned, while 1t was calculated that from forty 1.lfT ID -k- ships armorer was killed and three others | of the crew were wounded.

BASEBALL TROUBLE
 NEARING AN END
WHILE MEMBERS OF NATIONAL BOARD ARE VERY RETIcENT, IT
 IS BELIEVED THE TWO Asso- CAPTIONS WILL GET TOGETHER.

Chicago November 17.-After an all day session the Minor Baseball League Wagnates, who have been in session for two days, were but little nearer definite settlement of their differences than ever, when they adjourned tonight for another meeting tomorrow morning.
 While the members or the national board are decidedly reticent, It IS thought the question of territory was practically decided on, and that the disposition of players was all that kept the magnates from a settlement.
 The American association seems to be in the ascendency with but little ques- ton that that league will be member of the National association next year. Secretary Farrell of the National board admitted after adjournment, that con- siderable progress had been made toward peace. but refused to go into details.
