@ichigan Campaign
Literature Claimed to
Haze Trapped Bryan

CHICAGO. Sept. 2s.-The Tribune
today publishes story that while
VIM. ]. Bryan Is promising full publ
city OF contributions to the Demo
cratic national campaign fund, his
confidential representatives secretly
are promising immunity from publ
city to such donors as may desire
II.
The Tribune continues:
A glimpse of the convenient ar
rangement is given in a series Of let
tiers sent broadcast through the state
OF Michigan by F. E. Pulte. who
writes that he has been commissioned
by the national committee" to solicit
funds In that state.
Gov. G. N. Haskell, treasurer ol
the national committee" he writes ar

"a complete list of all contributor,
(unless otherwise stipulatedD in tn
state of Michigan, containing their az
dresses and the amount contributed
will be published in pamphlet form
a copy Of which will be mailed to eac
subscriber"
Unless otherwise stipulated"
will be observed. is the cunningly d.
vised evasion which makes II possibl
for Mr.. Bryan's financial agents {
gather in large contributions iron
questionable sources without givin
the publicity which the candidat
promises In his speeches.
All prospective donor who shrink
from publicity. like the Standard Oh
Co., has to do Is to take the hint from
the letters sent out on behalf of tn
national committee and "stipulate"
suppression of his contribution.

and If they keep up the gait they are hit

the mound for the locals and held the
visitors to one hit until the ninth. when
he allowed three safe slaps at the ball re-
sulting in the colleeians scoring their only
run. He was backed up by Butterfly, who.
beside crossing the plate twice played a

business-lilse arrangement, and IL is
this perhaps as much as the lack OF
room that actuated Postmaster Conrad
in bringing the needs Of the office be-
fore the Postoffice Department
The clumsy division Of the Office as
it is at present is illustrated by the
varied locations Of the postmasters
and the assistant postmaster's Offices
Postmaster Conrad has his Office in
the extreme east end Of the building
and Assistant Postmaster Jester
office is at the extreme west end. Much
of the detail work OF the Office that
is brought to the attention of the
postmaster has to be referred to the
assistant postmaster and this necessi-
tates much delay in passing between
the two Offices When visitors TO this
postmaster are referred TO Mr.. Jester.

ing floor causing irritating confusion
to the 81 carriers and clerks who are
busy on the floor during several periods
OF the day.
Departments Conflict.
A further cause of confusion Is the
fact that the various departments are
not separated. the clerks Of one de-
partment having easy access into the
other departments. This is viewed az
detriment to the service and an in
Justice 70 those who are hold respon
sible for their divisions. In general
postofices in cities the size of VIII
mington are separated into distinct
departments in fact as well as in the
ory, and it is impossible for a clerk in
one department TO go into another.
The registry department is one OF
the departments especially in need OF
larger quarters. There are now five
clerks in this department. and It is 50
cramped for room that 1t is hardly pos
sible for them 10 keep their napers in
proper order. Two additional win
dows are needed here also, one from
which money orders can be paid an
one from which they can be issued At
present one window serves for both
processes. The same is true OF the
registry division.
Larger Mail Room.
The mailing and the dispatch divi-
sions are other departments which de-
mand larger quarters and which il IS
purposed TO segregate should the bill
now before Congress be favored. Lack
or vault room, too, has been felt for
long time. At present the vault used
in the assistant postmaster's Office
where valuable stamps. papers and
other Office material are supposed to
be stored, is hardly more than a large
closet and large cases Of paper
stamps. and stamped envelopes have
to be left in the Office. In the registry
division there is no vault at all. and
two small safes have been found too
small to contain the departments
papers.
According to the estimate Of the
United States Treasury architect0 who
has examined the building, it will re-
quire $500 square feet Of surface In
which properly to conduct Whining
toms mail service The present di-
mensions are probably less than third
OF that. II was estimated that the i'm
provements 10 the Office would cost
100000 with from $4,000 to s25. 600
for the purchase Of buildings in the
rear Of the postofice extending from
Shipley to Orange streets. which
would be necessary to acquire in order
to extend the Office back the required
number Of feet and to leave the space
of 40 feet required by law in the rear
OF government buildings.
