IMPROVED POSTAL SERVICE.
Night Clerk Now N Duty and the Of
fee Lobby Open All Night-Quick.
er Distribution of Mali.

The postoffice is now open all night
and there is now no ground for
complaint by those who have lock
boxes that they cannot obtain mail
at any hour of the day or night.
The night clerk for which Postmaster
Shore has been working for more
than year to obtain salary allow
ance, hes at last been authorized by
duty Sunday night. The rules OF the
Postoffice Department permit the lob
by Of the postoffice to remain open at
night only so long as an cmplvye is or
duty In the office. and Heretofore the
lobby has been closed at o'clock
when the last clerk went off duty.
From this time forward the lobby
will be open day and night, and all
matter deposited In the Office during
the night will be made up and des-
patched. For instance mail for the
carly morning train to Augusta may
now be deposited in the office at any
hour Of the night and get off on the
next morning train, instead of having
to be mailed before p. NJ as hereto
fore. Another advantage Is the imme-
diate distribution Of mail received on
the 9.44 p. m. train. The night clerk
will receive this mail and distribute it
in the lock boxes as soon as 1t arrives
ard those who may expect mail by
tnot train can obtain 1t about 1910
O'Clock, if they have lock boxes.

time past by main force of their abund-
ant resources which held prices at an
artificial level but with no sound in
Vestment demand to sustain them there
When the pressure came upon such ac-
counts for reduction and withdrawal, the
lack or sound absorptiye power in the
market made the effort to liquidate es-
pecially conspicuous. There is common
agreement also that the fears aroused by
the sweep of the public agitation against
rallroad corporations had much to do with
lettering the support of inside interests
IN the great railroad corporations, even
II they were not actually in the ranks
OF the precipitate sellers of securities.
The better Informed opinion however, is
the speculative holdings of security hold
ers, based on inside knowledge of cor
poraticns, were largely reduced or closed
out during the advancing period last
fall. The cynical comment on that as
sumption points out the special advan-
tages offered by the railroads of dividend
advances at that time in the making of
a favorable market for liquidation in
spite cf pressure of money scarcity, than
as now, and the prominence already given
at that time to the projects of corpora
ton regulation and restriction which are
given sc large a share of responsibility
for the present depression.
1t is not doubted that controlling
powers in corporations feel real APP
prehension that the future promises an
effective restriction of those powers bv
legal enactment, but there is scepticism
of the assumption that the growth of
tins apprehension to an acute stage in the
minds of capitalists had been delayed I'M
til last week when the frantic selling
of securities based upon it broke upon the
stock market
Great prominence is assigned in the
current financial comment and in the
public discussion by the most prominent
fnanciers to these partly sentimental
causes of the acute depression in the
securities market and of the timidity
manifested by capital in embarking in
proposed measures for railroad improve
ments and extensions. The Importance
assigned by these sentimental causes
served to throw into the background to
some extent the factor of excessive re-
quirements upon the available supply of
capital The nsufficiency of capital to
meet recent requirements is generally rec
ognized, and the wholesale demands made
by American rail roads must be allowed
an important influence on this condi-
ton. Tt is a condition that lies back
of 1t and is only partly caused by the
worldwide stringency in the money mar
ket which is due more to the universal
activity of trade and the general pros
.perity of business. Such activity and
prosperity in themselves are productive
rather than destructive of capital
The large requirements for capital to
put into fixed or only partly liquidated
in the forms, however. serves to reduce
the available supply Of capital available
for immediate productive consumption,
and ercroaches on money supplies.
