More Federal Buildings.

Dispatches from Washington say
that the postOffice inquiry is producing
some good in the way Of causing
members Of congress to suggestreforms
for the postal service. Congressman
McCleary purposes introducing two
amendments to the pOstOffice apprOpri-
alton bill. one Of which will provide
for a system of graded clerk hire ac-
cOrding to the salary received by the
postmaster and the other allowing
federal buildings to be erected in cities
which have second-class offices. He
has based his calculations upon the
conditions in New Ulm and announces
his belief that a building could be
erected here for $50, 900 At the rate OF
| 2 per cent, the amount paid by the
government for money, this would
mean an annual expenditure of bu1
5000, less than is now appropriated fol
rent. A saving would thus be made
to the government and Mr.. McCleary
is of the opinion that the same rul
will apply elsewhere, giving variou
other cities in the district and the stat
creditable public buildings. j.

tant in Minnesota.

An institution of which very little is
known by local people is the coallng
station maintained at this point by the
Chicago & Northwestern railroad. 1t
may be said to be an industry in it.
self, for at certain seasons OF the year
it is very busy place, and the amount
of coal which the men in charge of it
handle in the course of twelve months
is really prodigious. Nearly every
engine, whether east or west bound,
reflls it's tender here and the result is
that New Ulm has become the most i'm
portant coaling station on the road
west of the Mississippi river. ~.
A reason for this is that the traffic
over the middle DIVISION" that from
Waseca to Tracy, is the heaviest on
the Northwestern line in Minnesota.
Locomotives filling their bunkers at
either end of the division invariably
find it necessary to take on few addi-
tional tons of the bituminOus when
they reach this city, and thus more
coal tickets are issued to enginemen
here than at any similar point.
The amount of coal varies with the
different months. Late in the fall and
early winter, when the rush Of moving
, the crops is on, the station presents
scene of great activity, but after the
. grain is disposed of there is a lull. Or
the average, however, passing locOmo
tives carry out from $500 to 5000 tons
= monthly, or total of between 80, O0(
and $4,000 tons per annum, and EN-
. plovment is furnished for six men
The latter are divided into tricks Q
three men each and one crew or tn
other is on duty constantly.
In line with the above it is not amis
to cite the fact that the Northwestern

JAPANESE ATTACK
VLADIVOSTOCK

Vladivostock. March Ga feet OF
five Japanese battleships and two
cruisers appeared off this place at 1:25
o'clock this afternoon and bombarded
the town and shore batteries for fifty
FIVE minutes.
The feet approached from the direc-
ton of Askold island. at the east en-
trance to Ussuri bay, and about thirty
two miles southeast of Vladivostock.
Entering Ussuri bay the enemy
formed line Of battle, but did not ap-
proach to close range.
They directed their fire against the
shore batteries and the town, but no
damage resulted, as most of their 200
lyddite shells failed to burst.
The Russian batteries, commanded
by Generals Vernonet and Artamon-
on. did not reply, awaiting a closer ap-
proach of the enemy. The Japanese
fire ceased at 2:20 p. m, and the enemy
retired In the direction OF Askold is
land.
simultaneously two torpedo boat de-
stroyers appeared near Askold island
and two more near Cape Maidel. The
Japanese ships were covered with ice.
The attack resulted in no loss to the
Russians, but cost the enemy 200 600
roubles ts100.000) in ammunition. Most
of the projectiles were six and twslve-
inch shells.
