Postoffice Dept.
Shows a Surplus.

Washington, Dect 10.-eFor the first
time since 1883 the annual financial
statement of the postoffice department
shows a surplus instead of a deficit
This is the burden Of the annual re-
port of Postmaster General Hitch
cock, made public, today He indicated
that the placing of the postal service
on a. self-sustaining basis meant an
Improvement and extension of faeili-
ties and. at no distant day, one cent
letter postage.
At the beginning Of the present adj
ministration in 1909 Mr.. Hitchcock
pointed out. the department showed,
a deficit of $17,479,770, the largest on
record. In two years this deficit has
been changed into a surplus of S219,llS,
despite important extensions through
out the service. These extensions in
elude 3744 new postofttces, delivery OF
mail by carriers in 1S6 additional cities.
2156 new rural mail routes aggregat-
ing 60,679 miles, and 5000 additional
postal employees. with the salary roll
greater by $4,000, 900 than it was two
years ago.
The Postal Savings Bank system
ton in practically all of the 1900 Pres
idential postoftices. Preparations are
being made to establish it in about
40 o00 fourth class Offices that do a
money order business. In IL months
operation postal banks deposits aggre-
gated Sill 00o, 900 and are expected to
reach $40 600, 900 or more by July l
In view of the successful operation
of the Postal Banks Mr. Hitchcock
strongly recommended the establish
ment by Congress of an adequate par
cells post which, he said, could be put
into operation in d few months.
The postmaster general reiterated
that the second class postage rate
should he two cents, instead of one
cent pound fes..
Mr.. Hitchcock said: "Fhe progress
in aviation encourages hope that ulti-
mately the regular conveyance of mail
by this means may be practicable in
many districts where the natural con-
dftions preclude other means of rapid
transportation"

MAINTAINS GAINS.
Business Shows Better
TneNtS in Some WAYS.
Financial Market al This Time
Shows No Response.
Various influences at Work Tend 10
nepfess Market Values.

New York, Dec. 10.--Business main
tains its recent gains, with further
betterments in some directions The
financial market at this time shows
no response Security values tended
downward, during the last week, with
only a partial recovery toward it's
close. The movement showed that the
market during its rise, last month, had
discounted the Improvement in bust
ness conditions which has occurred
thus far. Other influences were at
work, moreover, to depnsss market
values. Chief among them were politi=
cal developments. higher money rates.
and announcement of plans for the re-
organization of the Wabash Railroad
and the Allis-C Chalmers Co.
Speculation was influenced to a con-
siderable degree by the prospective
reimbursement of the Wabash 8
finances, Notwithstanding the fact
that the unsatisfactory positions of
the railroad had made it long evident
that some such step was probable
The same is true of the Allis-Chal-
mers Co. Attention was drawn to 9TH
er low priced securities which 1t was
felt might be similarly situated, and
vague reports Of the possibility of fur
ther reorganization exercised a de-
pressing influence.
The assembling of Congress with the
prospect of long session during
which matters of greatest independ-
ence to business are to be considered.
served to restrict stock market opera
lions. President Taft's message IN re-
gard te control of corporations was
OF little market influence, since his
views oH that question had been aired
SO thoroughly during his Western
trip.
f The President feeling that turn
for the better had been made in bust
ness was supported by reports of the
commercial agencies, based upon con-
ditions at all the industrial centers.
Further evidence was found in the I'M
expeetedly good showing of the cop
per producers monthly statement. and
in the gain in untitled tonnage report
ed By the United Stares steel Corpo-
ration which was twice as large as
most estimates.
1t had expected that money rates
would relax, this week with the Dec
] interest and dividend payments out
of the way. Maintenance of compare
lively high rates throughout the week
tended to check stock market opera
tons. The Unexpectedly poor bank
statement of Dec. furnished some
explanation. The highly favorable
statement of the banks. last week,
showed a reversal of position which
may find its immediate effect in the
course of money rates.
