Benefit TO MERCHANTS.
New Postoffice Regulations Which
Went Into Effect Recently.
From SATURDAYS Daily.

By a new order received from Wash
ington, the post offices throughout the
country, are to have a system of receiv-
ing certain kinds of third and fourth
class mail matter, without the use of
stamps. If any merchant or other per-
son has two thousand or moro identical
pieces of matter that he wishes to send
through the mail all at once, he may
avoid the trouble of stamping each in
dividual piece. He must first apply for
permission at the post office to send the
mail in this way, and if he is found to
be a fit person to enjoy this privilege,
after use of a considerable amount OF
red tape, he will receive a permit thus
to mail articles. To secure this privilege
a special wrapper will have to be used.
In the upper left hand corner the name
of the sender will have to be printed.
In the upper right-han corner the class,
the amount of money paid, the words
''Paid in Money" and the permit num-
Der are to be printed.
No merchants or other people in Man
kato have yet applied for the privilege
of sending merchandise in this way, and
it is not likely that any of them will do
so. The new rule will benefit mer-
chants of the large cities, who make a
large percentage of their deliveries by
mail.

His Tale Is as Sensational as
1t Is Surprising.
Bribery Has Been the Rage in
St. Louis for Years.
Efforts to Intimidate Folk We're
of No Avail.

St. Louis, Oct. 4.-By the written con-
fession of Charles f. Kelly, former
speaker of the house of delegates, it was
shown today that there has been real
danger of the assassination of Joseph
w. Folk at all times during his fight
against the "boodlers" of this city.
Kelly has pointedly confessed that
threats Of assassination have been made
to Folk, and in view of this revelation
establishment is felt that even at the
most critical periods in his prosecutions
the fighting circuit attorney has protest
ed against a guard of detectives. 1t
was only the insistence of his wife that
induced him to tolerate a bodyguard
when he was in Jefferson City in July
at the state convention The first re-
suit of Kelly's disclosure is the decision
of Folks friends to insist on a guard
for him day and night
Kelly's confession is one of the most
surprising documents in all the amazing
papers in the long list of criminal ac-
tions instituted by Mr.. Folk. More
than any other written page in any of
the doodle" prosecutions, it showed
the tremendous obstacles against which
Folk battled successfully. 1t sets forth
that many of the wealthiest men in the
city were allied with the big politicians
in both parties to overthrow him, and
that plans are now being worked out for
the defeat of Folk in many individual
cases.
A statement of timely interest is that
Edward Butler, the 'big boss" has
promised that the circuit attorney to
succeed Mr.. Folk will be "all right"
The nomination for this office yet has
to be made by the democrats. Kelly de-
tails also the division of Doodle fund
of $45 900 among nineteen members of
the combine.
In the course of his confession, For
mer Speaker Kelly said:
81 know from my own knowledge and
from the statements made to me by
those on the inside that bribery has been
going on in the municipal assembly of
st. Louis for the past twenty five years.
Hardly bill passed that body in the
last quarter of century unless it was
paid for. We did not fear exposure
and punishment, for the reason that we
believed that no one would dare to do it.
In case of attack, we knew that most of

In doing so, the members have assumed
considerable responsibility, but they
have confidence in the people of Man
kato that they will render all assistance
possible, in which event there cannot
be the least question about the success
of the undertaking. An effort viii be
made, and it now looks as though it
would meet with success, to harmonic
the two street car factions, so that they
may all work for the one end in view.
The Free Press will use its best efforts
to aid in the enterprise and rejoices in
the good news that something tangible
is now in sight.
