Declines to Discuss Subject.

Second Assistant Postmaster General
Stewart did not care to discuss the sub
ject late yesterday afternoon. He sale
he preferred to leave that to the Post
master General, who felt deep interest
in the proposed new service. He admitted
the receipt Of the sealed envelope which
Is supposed to contain bid, but said
1t had been placed in the vault awaiting
the Postmaster Generals return, and he
did not even remember the postmark on It..
Under the rules governing the proposals
for the service it Is stipulated:
mo award of contract for the mail
service on the routes herein described
will be made to any bidder who shall be
engaged in any competitive transporta-
ton business by rail or who shall be en-
gagged In the business Of exporting or
importing goods, wares, merchandise or
other property on his own account, OF
who shall bid for, on behalf Of or in the
gagged In such business. or either of them,
lor having the control thereof through
stock ownership or otherwise
It Is not denied that there are
steamship companies in the country
that could handle the coast-to-coast
mails for Uncle Sam, but there are
few, IL any. that are not owned out
right or are tied up In some way with
the great railroad lines of the coun-
try.
The reason for the insertion Of this
to prevent the railroad interests from
getting a monopoly Of the rail and
water transportation business to the
exclusion Of Independent interests who
may desire to take advantage Of the
canal route.

Says Congress Should Act.

Senator Newlands. discussing the situa-
ton last night. said:
Congress must act speedily, and act so
as to absolutely insure a sufficient ton
mage to accommodate the coast to coast
traffic via the canal that will be offered
when the canal is opened. Otherwise the
disappointment Of the people will be tor
rible.
"Sinoe B. N. Baker of Baltimore told
the Senate committee on interstate COM
merce how he had failed to finance his
company to handle these contracts have
made careful inquiries. AS far as I can
learn there are only four ships suitable
as lines projected for this trade. These
have been ordered by the American-Ha-
waiian Steamship Company and will go
into their regular trade. Consequently
they will not be available for new bust
ness except to limited extent. As far
as I can learn no others have been even
proposed.
The situation is. therefore, most seri-
Gus. With the opening Of the canal
only nineteen months away, there are
practically no ships to handle the
Pacific-Atlantic coast business, and
none for the new mail routes, notwith-
standing the heavy subsidy offered. II
that means anything. 1t means that the
shippers will be left as now, at the
mercy of the transcontinental roads, and
our investment Of $400,000,000 will have
been useless. as far as this commerce
is concerned"

Convicts Perfected Course.

The automobile course, which has q
world reputation, has been cut out
of the roads Of Chatham county and has
been put In condition by convict labor.
Because Of the fact that the county au-
thorities consent to the use of the. con-
victs for this class Of work the cost of
putting the course in condition is much
less than 1t would be if the work had
to be paid for by contract labor. The
course is shorter this year than before,
having been reduced in length to Lila
miles, and has been greatly improved,
compared to its condition Of year ago.
The banked turns which furnished so
many thrills to both spectators and con-
testants two years since, and which were
eliminated last year at the request large
ly of the drivers, have been restored, and
1t is expected they will add much to the
excitement of the four events. The
drivers who have been over the course in
preliminary practice have learned to ne
gotiate these turns in remarkably short
time and with very spectacular effect.
The course has been thoroughly oiled
and has been pronounced as nearly per-
feet as an outdoor course can be.
There is not a hill over its entire dis
lance and there are frequent stretches
of several miles where 1t Is as straight
as an arrow. 1t Is built OF gravel well
roied and packed and treated with a
liberal supply of crude oil. 1t Is now a
black streak OF a resilient nature over
which the speed kings OF the world are
expected to make time that will hang up
new records in the automobile racing
world.

1t was the general expectation that no

to be no steamship company that can
