board OF examiners yesterday authorized
the college board to create an indebted

much more modern in arrangements than
the structure which was destroyed. The

displace board floors. However. the in

 The bill was amended in several par ticulars, the most important change consisting of the transfer of the in- spection service of the department from the fourth assistant office to that of the Postmaster General.
 There was added S5o,00O to the ap- propriation of S270O.000 for rent, light and fuel for first, second and third class offices The period for the weighing of mails under the quadren- nial requirement. as the basis for the adjustment of transportation pay was extended from thirty to ninety days.
 The old light on the appropriation for special mail facilities on trunk lines was begun when MT. Morris (Neb) moved to strike out the fea- ture of the bill.

For an hour or more the House discussed proposed legisla- ton looking to the regulation of rail- road rates, the principal remarks be- ing made by Messrs. Shirley (Ky.) and Sibley (Pa.)
 Before proceeding with the post office appropriation bill, which has the right of way, the House today took up several matters of routine character, among them being the appointment of Edwin P.

 Consideration of the postofice appro- priation was then resumed. After MT Gouden, of New York, had favored ma terial increase in the salaries of letter carriers. postal affairs were for a time side tracked while Messrs. Shirley, of Kentucky. and Sibley, of.
