MONTHLY PAYMENTS
To Railroads Carrying Mails
For the Government
In the Future.
INCREASED CIRCULATION.

Washington, Nov. 30.-A ruling Of
vast importance to the railroads OF
the country carrying United States
mails has been made by the Second
Assistant PostmasterGeneral Here
tofore it has been the practice OF the
Postoffice Department to make quar-
terly payments for such service, but
the railroads contended that as mat
ter of right and justice, settlements
should be made monthly, as is the
case with other contracts.
For some time past the Rock Island
system, through Guy Adams, it's Su-
perintendent of Mails, has negotiated
with the department to this end, with
the result that commencing January
l, next, monthly payments will be
made. The aggregate amount in
volved each year is over $48,000,000,
and the new ruling will have the eff
feet of putting In circulation a consid-
cradle sum each month.
