Senate Increases Appropriation Made
by House.


by House.
The senate committee on postoff1ces
and post roads has reported to the
senate the postoff1ce appropriation
bill. An increase of about 100000
has been made over the amount ap-
propriated by the house BILL which
was $209,000,000.
The largest increase was the adj
vancing the pay. of rural carriers to
5000. The present pay of such car
riers is $720. The house bill increas-
ed this is $40. The house made an
appropriation to increase salaries of
clerks and carriers in postoffices of
ali grades, and to this the senate COM
mittee added provisions for the grad
uated promotion of clerks and car
riers up to $500. Special grades are
created above the amount where
emergencies and the character of SER
vice made them necessary. Another
amendment was adopted appropriate
ing 100000 additional for clerks in
third class postoffices. A change was
also made in the payment to land
grant railroads for the carrying of
mails. The house provided that $17.10
should be paid per ton for all mail
carried over $4,000 pounds, and the
senate committee reduced the weight
to 5000 pounds.
The controversy over newspapers
and magazines which carry coupon
advertisements was disposed of by
the adoption of the following provi-
sion
THAT hereafter newspapers and
periodicals may carry blank or print
ed return coupons as part of the adj
vertisements, or blank space for
writing concerning the subjects
treated, not in excess of one-third OF
the superficial area occupied by the
: advertisements or articles, without
impairing their rights to the second
: class postage rates."
