He was widely known at the time

of the gallant part he took in the

Soon after my appointment as
postmaster of Philadelphia by Presi-
dent Hayes" said General Huide-
koper, = called upon the President
He was very cordial. He had no adj
vice to give me excepting to try TO
advance the efficiency of the Philadel-
phia postof1ice. He suggested to me
that ] call upon the postmaster of
New York. Thomas l.. James, so
that | could get from him some ideas
which the highly satisfactory ad-
ministra ton of the New York city
postoffice might furnish me.
Il did call upon Mr.. James and |
never shall forget the kindness with
which | was received | was told
that every facility would be given me
to study the methods in vogue in the
New York city postohice.
| During our CONVERSE ton / oD-
served that a colored man who acted
as "a sort of messenger brought in a
basket filed with letters and placed
the basket upon the postmaster
desk While Mr.. James continued to
chat with me he revealed his ability
to do two things at once, for he took
| the addresses ON each one of the
envelopes. / probably displayed some
curiosity at what was going ON, for
! Mr.. James began TO explain to me
what he was doing and why.
/ He said the basket contained all
| the letters that had been deposited
at the postofiice that day unstamped.
| He was therefore taking down the
addresses on the envelopes so that
he could send an official card to
every one to whom the letters were
addressed. saying that unstamped
| letters to the address had been de-
posted in the New York postofIice
and would be forwarded upon re-
cept of stamps.
He told me that there was Moth
ing in the law that compelled him TO
do this. but that he felt that it might
be of great advantage to the persons
to whom the letters were addressed TO
know. so that they could have them
forwarded. Otherwise the letters
would go to the dead-letter office,
where they might remain good
while.
