posTMAsTER-GEN'L OPTIMISTIC
Says Postoffices viii BE sek-sustaln
ING and Penny Postage 10 Possibility.


WASHINGTON. Oct. 12.-"Before
the close Of another fiscal year the
federal postal establishment will be-
come self-sustaining This will be ac-
complished without curtailing In the
slightest the service rendered or les
sening in any respect its efficiency"
This statement was made last night
by Postmaster-General Hitchcock. In
connection with the announcement
that he had submitted to the treasury
department. five days In advance OF
the time fixed by law, his estimates OF
appropriations for the postofflce de-
.partment and the postal savings dur
ing the fiscal year beginning July 1.
In private conversations heretofore,
Mr.. Hitchcock has indicated his belief
that II would be possible. within a
year Or two. through the operation OF
plans he had worked out. to place the
postal service on paying basis. Dur
ing the last fiscal year, ended June 80
last, he turned back into the treasury
about 100000 out of the actual ap-
propriations made by congress for tho
support of the department. The deficit
of the department for that year was
less than for many years, being re-
duced by approximately one-half from
the deficit of $17,000,000 Of the year
before.
With the postal service able to pay
its own way, Mr.. Hitchcock is con
vinced that penny postage" for first
class letters is not the '.iridescent
dream" It has been declared. Indeed.
he Is almost prepared to assert that
one-cent postage now Is In sight as q
practical business proposition.

and Complaint For yntment
Of Receive

ebo S0'hPsa'uA w <{vsssssS''>
NEW YORK, Oct Summons
and complaints was hledSIh the SUI
preme court yesterday in suit
brought by John Co Tomlinson, the
lawyer. for receiver of the Michigan
United Railways company on the
ground that the company Is trying to
avoid paying its obligations to the
Knickerbocker Trust company on
loans obtained In ats behalf by MIR,
Tomlinson. The defendant named IS
George G. Moore, of Detroit.
Mr.. Tomlinson says that in 1904 Mr..
Moore induced him to become inter
ested with others In the Lansing &
Suburban Traction company, an cleo
trio line and that he got a loan OF
$450, 900 from the Knickerbocker Trust
company, which was to be secured
by $750,000 of first mortgage bonds.
In 1905, Mr.. Tomlinson says he got
another loan of 100000, and all the
second loan and $4,000 of the first
was to be used for improvements.
Moore. he says, failed to see that this
was done, and later syndicate was
formed to take over this road and
others, which finally became the
Michigan United Railways company.
Mr.. Tomlinson got loan OF $1,000
900 from the Knickerbocker Trust
company for this syndicate, he says,
but the syndicate is disavowing its
obligations to the trust company. He
declares that Moore has at least 1862
600 in his hands for the syndicate and
that the syndicate has obligations to
no one else but the Knickerbocker
Trust company. He wants this money
to reimburse the trust company for
the $750,000 of bonds which, he says,
are worthless through the fault Of
Moore, in not using the money for
the purpose for which 1t was loaned.

The cattle situation Is rapidly
working toward a lower basis for
everything except tidy butchers
grades. which are always scarce, be-
cause everybody wants them. Large
receipts of prime cattle OF heavy
weight continue In Chicago and the
west, and prices are on the down
grade. The demand for feeders con-
tinues strong. but buyers have taken
the hint and are asking for lighter
cattle than ever before. A marked de-
cline in the value OF corn is having a
marked effect on feeding operations,
causing the purchase Jof thousands of
head of cattle and sheep that would
not have been fed under other con-
ditions.
