suits will furnish an augury for 1872

sentative Webb, Of North Carolina, will

CORTELYOU UNDER FIRE.
Attorney for Lewis Publications Ap-
pears Before Committee.

Former Third Assistant Postmaster
General Madden, who is now attorney for
the Lewis publications of st. Louis, ex-
planned yesterday to the House Commit
tee on Expenditures in the Interior De-
partment why 1t was that when he sew
cred his connection with the department
he took with him copies of official cor
respondence between the Lewis Publish
ing Company and the department It
was, he said, to defend himself against
the "villainous letter. written to him by
then Postmaster General Cortelyou.
Five years ago E. G. Lewis, head Of
the Lewis Publishing Company of st.
Louis, was worth between 100000 and
100000 and yet when he came down
to Washington this time he had to bor-
row the money for his railroad fare and
other expenses. This is what Mr.. Lewis
himself told the committee.
He backed up the story told by his at
torney, Mr.. Madden, OF his persecution by
the officials of the Post-office Department
under Postmaster General Cortelyou.

MAIL SERVICE FOR
PANAMA PLANNED
Fast Steamers Wanted to
Open New Trade.

An order of considerable Importance,
from both a postal and a commercial
point of view, was issued by Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock yesterday look
ing to the establishment of ocean mail
service by sixteeh-knot steamer be-
tween leading Atlantic and Pacific
ports in this country and the ports of
Colon and Panama. The advertisement
provides that service shall begin in
the fall of 1914. so as to be in opera
tion when the Panama Canal Is opened
Under the proposed contract fast steam
ers will furnish a weekly service, on the
one hand, between New York and Colon,
calling at Charleston or Savannah, or
both, and from New Orleans to Colon,
and, on the other hand, from Seattle and
San Francisco to Panama. calling at San
Pedro, or San Diego. or both.
The opening Of the canal will enable
the steamers, which. under this contract,
carry the mails to Colon or Panama, to
continue their journey through the canal
and to proceed on the western voyage to
San Francisco or to points In South
America and on the eastern voyage to
points on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts,
thus permitting them to carry cargoes
between distant points without breaking
bulk. This will afford a convenient and
reliable transportation line for freights
in swifter steamers than any now avail
able, between the seaportsson the two
coasts.
Thus the completion Of the Panama
Canal, which is expected to open a new
era in the commerce or the world. will
be accompanied by the establishment Of
an American ocean mail service that
should fill long-felt want in our com.
mercial relations with Central and South
America.
The Postmaster General has provided
in the advertisement for a guarantee
against the control of these lines by
competing railway companies. This new
provision IN ocean mail contracts Is In
keeping with the policy Of the admins
tration regarding the restraint Of trade.
Mr.. Hitchcock expects that the surplus
revenue of the department will be suffi-
cient to meet the cost Of this new serv-
ice, which will be close to 100000 a
year.
