ADVANCE INFORMATION GIVEN
Claim Made That Certain Wagon
Manufacturers Receive First
News of New Routes.

Washington, April 13.-Postoff1ce
Inspectors engaged in the investiga-
ton of department affairs will make
careful inquiry into the charges
that certain wagon manufacturers
have been given preference in adj.
vance information about the establish.
ment of rural free delivery routes.
These charges come from a firm in
=, =. -. =. 81 Machen, super
intendent of the free delivery bureau,
said:
I'VE have been very careful in fore
ing rule in the free delivery division
that no advance information about the
establishment of routes shall be given.
| cannot say what any one of about
1875 men may actually have done in
given instance, but | know they all
have instructions not to furnish adj
vance information and that they know
the giving of such information would
be under penalty of dismissal from
the service. | have list of approx
mately 300 names to whom bulletins
are sent whenever it has been decided
to establish rural free delivery routes.
These names include newspapers,
wagon manufacturers, box manufac.
turers, guaranty companies that are
engaged in the business of bonding
carriers and all others who signify to
the postofice department that they
would like to have the earliest avail
able information of new routes"
Mr.. Maehen added that some firms
secure early information about these
routes by watching the county papers
closely. These papers print accounts
about the visits of rural free delivery
inspectors to their vicinity and often
gather information from congressman
and others about prospective routes.

No Americans Wanted.

st. Johns, N. b., April 13.-The
steamer Lake Manitoba, with the Barr
party of British immigrants on board,
arrived and two trainloads of immi-
grants have started for Saskatoon, in
the northwest 1t has been stated
that in every township founded a
quarter section would be given by the
Canadian government to Canadian
or American who may be acquainted
with the best methods of working the
land to serve as an instructor to the
Britishers. Rev. Mr.. Barr, leader OF
the party, says that they do not want
any Americans. He denies that he
has any feeling against Americans,
but he says the idea which caught the
British public was that of an all
British colony, and this he proposes
to carry out. Three townships will be
formed Mr.. Barr says there will be
1900 more Britishers out next month
and 10000 next year, all for Saskatoon.

by Mr.. Meredith paying $12,5O0 to the
commissioner of the government, ac-
cording to Revenue Inspector Harvey
II. Slusser. The fine is one of the
largest demanded by the government
IN years. The firm is located at East
Liverpool, O., and the offense charged
was the changing of marks and
brands on packages of spirits and

spirits without giving notice to the
collector and without the intervention

as to make the cost of handling the
steel and tin as low as the lowest.
A machinist, who recently built a
rolling and tin plate mill in one of the
towns near Pittsburg was up few
days ago and took look over the new
mill here. He had just completed a
good factory, but be admitted to Mr.
Humbert that the Rolling Mill Of
America Is better than his. Mr.. d. G.
Courtney, OF the B. & o. railroad,
who was master mechanic on the d.
vision between Connellsville and Cum
berland visitedlthe Humbert mill here
recently. He has had wide kno~l-
edge of mills and machinery, ! ~ j.,
assertion was that he had not seen a
better mill than this one.
The gas main has recently been laid
to the rolling mill, but bias not been
connected with it, as they now nave
the furnaces fitted up for burning
coal.
The manufacture OF tin plates from
she steel billets is most interesting
PROCESS, anu requires HucA sedie dbu
skill.
Mr.. Humbert has been greatly de-
layed in the building OF this factory
by the very inefficient railroad service.
The work now remaining to be done,
installing the machinery, etc, re-
quires so much care and oversight
that 1t cannot be hurried by big
force OF workmen. When it is ready
to operate the mills, there Will be a
big movement Of skilled laborers COM

vide homes for them.

school Board Says IT Has Not Been
Informed about Offer of Prizes Made
by Mr.. Wiles.


by Mr.. Wiles.
The following communicate has
been received:
"Mr. j w. Wiles has Just an
nounced that he will offer annually
cash prizes aggregating forty dol
larrs in the City High School for
excellence in debating and deciaim-
ing"
.All the details for awarding the
prizes are not yet made public. but
the annual contest, which is to be a
public affair, will take place about
Commencement time. The forty
dollars is to be divided as follow
First prize in debate $500; second
prize in debate $1,000; first prize
in defamation $1,000; second prize
in defamation $500
"Mr. Wiles says he will also offer
an annual prize o. $1,000 to the
room or to the pupil in the grammar
or intermediate grades that shall be
adjudged best in spelling, or 10
such other mark of excellence as
may be decided by the superin-
tendent."
The High School has been con
Quoting a creditable Literary Socie-
ty throughout the year, and the
offering of these prizes will add
much to the interest in the work
and to the effort of each individual
member 1t will also be stimulus
for members of the lower rooms to
reacE the High School and to remain
there long enough to carry away one
or more of these prizes, which are
well worth striving for.
"Mr. Wiles is to be congratulated
on making this generous offer, and
deserves the praise of the entire
community Tue art of speaking
and reading in public is one of the
greatest gifts of man, and these
prizes will do much to improve the
pupils of the High School in this
art"
"Mr. Wiles also offers to bring
Judges from out of town if deemed
expedient, and to pay their railroad
fare. This arrangement will avoid
any embarrassment on the part of
any one, besides relieving the Board
of any expense connected with the
contests, it having no funds for this
purpose as the University has
