Mr. Hitchcock was also pleased that
congress recognized the right of the
department, pending the report OF a
Joint committee, 10 ship second-class
matter by fast freight, instead of by
mail, since the adoption Of this plan
when in full operation means q saw
ing of about 100000 a year TO the
government and also relieves the
railway mail clerks of such onerous
work, enabling them 10 devote closer
attention TO the first-class mail. The
shipping OF magazine matter by fast
freight instead of In the mad cars is
of direct benefit TO the public be
cause it permits a quicker handling
of letter mail.
system for Clerks
Another importan, feature of the
new law to which Mr. Hitchcock par
ticularly referred is that providing
for the classification of the salaries
of railway mail clerks. Congress
adopted the Postmaster Generals rec
ommendation in this matter and
thereby conferred on the railway mail
clerks the same satisfactory system
OF promotions as that recently pro
vided for posto9ice clerks and city
letter carriers.
With regard to the provisions con
corning organizations formed by the
employees of the department, Mr.
Hitchcock said that the decision
reached was quite satisfactory to the
department, since IL prohibits EN-
ployees from joining any organization
that has among its objects the calling
of strikes or any organization that
would assist in the calling of strikes
He laid stress on the fact that the
department has never opposed organ
izations that are not detrimental &c
the postal service. although it has
vigorously opposed the joining by EN-
ployees of organizations that could
call strikes. realizing what a menace
it would be 20 the public welfare q
have even the threat OF q strike laas
ing over the postal service.
AS 20 the provision in the law ina
employees may take their grievances
| before congress, Mr.. Hitchcock said
that this merely reasserted a priv

/ that the executive order of Janua'N

Attorney-Generalh had only one preyi-

one was the Chandler case, in which
the supreme court held that although
the candidate had mailed his papers be-

MANSLAUGHTER
MAY BE CHARGE

Manslaughter may be the charge
entered against a Hawaiian named
Poai, following the taking of testi-
mony at an inquest to be conducted
by Coroner Charles Rose this after
noon concerning the death of Matthias
T. B. X. Chapman, lad who died
instantly through gunshot wounds al
legged by the police as inflicted by
Poai.
Poai, now in custody of the sheriff
and awaiting the outcome of the de-
alterations of the coroner's jury, is
said to have told conflicting stories
concerning the shooting, which took
place yesterday afternoon near the
Territorial animal quarantine station
on the Beach road.
That the lad was killed through &C
Icidental shooting is not disputed or
questioned. Carelessness in the hand
ling of the weapon is charged by the
officers who have made preliminary
Investigation of the affair.
According to information now in the
hands of the police, a party of boys
was hunting birds along the Beach
road yesterday afternoon. Poai and
the Chapman lad were in pursuit of a
linnet.
The party were using hammerless
gun, when 1t is alleged that Poai,
who is much older than the others
in the party and was doing most of
the firing of the gun, leveled the
gun at the bird. The arm is said. to
have kicked" to such an extent that
the aim was much DETECTED, the en-.
tire charge from the barrel passing
into the face of the Chapman boy.
Death is believed to have resulted
instantly. The charge of shot pene.
trated the left side of the boys
face, fracturing many bones in his
head.
Poai admitted that in leveling the
gun in the direction of the boy and
the bird he had neglected to close
the safety catch.
