The postoffice now pays to the railroads
of the country approximately $45, 900, 900 a
year. This expenditure. postal officials
say, may be reduced materially without
doing an injustice to the railroads or i'm
pairing the efficiency Of the service. II
is understood that the railroads take the
position that their charges for trans
porting the mails are reasonable, and yield
on'y a fair profit, not more, in fact, so
they declare, than comes from other forms
OF traffic. A statement has just been
issued In behalf Of the postmaster general
setting forth in detail his purpose in call
ing for the data in question.
The great railroads of the country, ac-
cordinR TO advices received in Washing
ton, viii make vigorous protests TO the
postmaster general against any reduction
in mail pay. Their experts are now pre-
pairing the reports to be submitted 20 the
postal service. II the postmaster general
should ask congress for authority to re-
duce the mail rates the railroads have
given notice they will fight the matter
to the finish in the house and senate.

There is a strong probability that hum
dreds of thousands, and possibly millions
Of dollars. may be subtracted in the fiscal
year beginning July 1, 1911, from the sums
now paid to the railroads of the United
States for transportation of the mails.
Postmaster General Hitchcock is deter
mined to wipe out the postal deficit. If
possible. If an inquiry he is now con-
ducting d~iscloses that the railroads are
Hoverpaid for carrying the malls, he viii
make recommendation that will undoubt-
edly affect the revenues Of the big roads
Of the country
For years the charge has been made,
writes the Washington correspondent of
the Brooklyn Eagle, that in carrying the
mails the railroads have exacted exor-
bitant rates, far greater proportionately
than are imposed upon other forms of
traffic. Within recent years, 1t is pointed
out, congress has passed laws designed to
protect the shipping public from unreason-
able rates, but has failed to scrutinize
properly, with a view of reducing them.
the charges paid on the business Of the
postal service.
1t was announced by President Taft
cary in his administration that every ef-
fort would be made while he was in the
White House to effect economies in gov
eminent expenditures, AS a result. the
estimates for appropriations for the army,
the navy and other departments nave been
cut to the bone, and the indications are
that no extraordinary expenditures will be
authorized at the coming session of con-
gress.
In accordance with the retrenchment
policy of the administration, the post
master general is now trying to ascertain
whether IT is true, as alleged, that the
postal service pays more for the traffic
1t originates than would be charged II the
railroads were doing the business with a
private corporation. He will make a re-
port to congress on the authority of a law
passed in 1879, M has called upon the
various railroads for statements as to the
exact cost per mile for mail transporta-
ton, and he expects to have this informa-
ton in hand at an early date.

While the White House may not con-
tribute to the ranks of debutantes for some
years to come, says a Washington maya
zine, the debut of Miss Helen being de-
ierred, good times are expected by the
younger set at the White House during
the coming season. The Taft children nave
a way of taking care of themselves and
getting plenty of fun without neglectlng
their studies, and Miss Taft is not a whit
behind her brothers in this respect. With
her fathers keen sense Of humor, and a
dimple the counterpart of his. though
thoroughly We'll read and a lover Of books.
Miss Helen is always ready for fun, and
In her trips home to the White House she
has shown a marked delight in society. 1t
is prophesled that when she does appear
she Will be a stellar attraction, and society
reporters predict that the three Miss
Tafts' Will be conspicuous figures in the
social circle next season.
During the republican convention IN Chi
csgo last year one Of the most enthusiastic
auditors in the Taft box was Miss Louise
Taft, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry w.
Taft, and many who were present will re-
call the enthusiastic "rooter'' who wore a
hat with red roses.
The third member of the trio Of cousins
also named Louise, is the daughter of Mr..
Charles Taft of Cincinnati; the two cousins
bearing the same name are distinguished
as Miss Louise of Cincinnati and Miss
Louise Of New York. The former is one
Of the greatest heiresses Of Ohio, but there
Is no indication that the distinction has In
any way spoiled her. She is a dark, slight
little lady, with simple, unaffected man
ners. The three Taft girls are fine types
or American young women. Miss Louise
OF New York is younger than her cousin
Louise; she is tall and wei proportioned,
with flashing dark eyes, and has the air
Of q young woman brought up in a great
metropolis.
