Wait for American Trade.

Unusual activity prevails among the
woolen and worsted manufacturers In
England. according to the report Of
George n Hodgson. general manager
Of the Cleveland Worsted Mills COM
pany. who has just returned from =
European trip. The activity extends
to combers. spinners and weavers,
while the makers OF wooden textile
n machinery are said to be sold ahead
from SIX to twelve months. 1t is the
prospect OF heavy reductions in the
American tariff that has brought
about such improved conditions in
England. The Textile Manufacturers
Journai quotes Mr.. Hodgson as saying
that he interviewed one Of the largest
English manufacturers on prevailing
conditions and found that he was quite
sanguine about three or four years
more Of uninterrupted prosperity. He
told Mr. Hcdgson that he had work
enough ahead to take care OF the
present year. and he hoped that very
soon tariff matters in the United
States would be suciently settled to

Work Of postoffice Department.

Another pronounced feature OF the
operations Of the post Office depart
ment under the present administration
has been the marked decrease in the
fraudulent use OF the mails, millions
OF dollars being saved TO the people
through the successful prosecutions
which have taken place under the
wstchfulness OF the postmaster gen
eral and his inspectors. The agitation
for an increase OF the postage on sec
ond class matter has resulted in q
commission being appointed by the
president. which IS now considering
this COT plieated question and the re-
suit OF its deliberations will undouht-
edly bring about a readjustmen salts
factory to all concerned The estab-
lishment of postal savings banks has
proved a great success wherever tried
and the system will be extended as
rapidly as possible

near future letter postage viii be re-

and that the extension OF the rural
