LATEST WASHINGTON NEWS AND
CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS
Would Melt silver Dollars.

The secretary OF the treasury. In his
annual report, says: November I.
1904. the amount OF bullion In the
treasury purchased under the act Of
July IL. 1900. was 2.7$2.5s9.7l fne
ounces. which has = coming value in
subsidiary money OF S3.79l. .3s0.2t.
The coinage of subsidiary coin dur
ing the last fve fiscal years Was $780,
300.0&s.s5.
Prom this II Is apparent that steps
must soon be taken to provide bullion
for the subsidiary coinage.
In this connection II may be pointed
out that no provision now exists for
the recoinaxe Of standard silver dollars
which by natural wear have become
unht for circulation. Many such arc
now In tho treasury. They can not be
yecoined into dollars without loss. and
there Is no authority to reimburse such
loss. As the subsidiary coinn are OF
lighter proportionate weight than tho
standard silver dollars. these abraded
and uncurrent coins might be recoined
into subsidiary silver coin without loss.
Tho smali contraction In the circula-
ton OF dollars would be Offset by the
increase In the subsidiary coin. and the
net result OF the operation would leave
the total money circulation unchanged.
recommend that the secretary OF the
treasury bs given authority for such

Favor. Limited Package Post.

Washington, Dec. 13.-The postmas.
ter general, in his annual report. rec.
ommends a limited cheap package de.
livery on rural routes. as follows:
with the establishment OF rural
mail delivery and the increasing ex'
tension OF rural telephone service by
private interests. there has grown up
a demand by the patrons OF the rural
service for the delivery OF small pack
ages OF merchandise. such as food
stufYs. tobacco. dry goods. drugs. etc.
on an order to the local merchant by
postal card, telephone or otherwise.
The value Of these packages Of mer
chandise is usually small and the
present rate OF postage OF cent per
ounce is practically prohibitive. The
patron or merchant cannot afford to
pay 16 cents for the delivery OF q
pound Of coffee or tobacco. or similar
article. but II a special rate were es'
tablished on such matter from the dis.
tributing office for delivery to any pa
tron on the rural routes from that OF.
flee It would be great convenience to
the patrons and become a source OF
revenue to the department.
ut is therefore recommended for the
consideration of Congress that rate
of 3 cents per pound or any fractional
part thereof. be authorized for pack.
ages OF books or merchandise. not ex-
ceeding FIVE pounds, mailed at the dis.
tributing postofilce of any rural free
delivery route for delivery to a patron

The steering committee Of the SEN
ate framed the order of business for
the Senate until the holiday recess.
Four matters will be given attention
in this period. They are the Philip
pine bill, on which the Senate to-day
agreed to vote December 10th; state
hood legislation; the nomination Of
William d. Crum to be collector OF the
port of Charleston, South Carolina,
and the question of filling vacancies
on Senate committees. At informal
meetings of the Senate leaders several
Of these measures have been discussed
and the tacit understanding reached
that some of them should be kept in
the background until late in the ses-
sion. Notably is this true Of the pro-
posed legislation granting the Inter-
state Commerce Commission supervis.
ion over railroad rates. 1t Is believed
by Senate leaders that there will be
no substantial opposition to the state
hood bill in its present form, admitting
Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one
state and Arizona and New Mexico as
one state. The Crum nomination,
doubtless, will go through.
