UNAVOIDABLE comments have been
made by some Saturday visitors from the
country, relative to the traffic ordinance
and the compulsion Of only short serv,,
ice being permitted by teams being tied
on Market street, between Fifth and South
streets, and one block on East and
West Patrick streets We desire to i'm
press on our country friends the danger
emanating from such congestion. Both
life and property are placed in jeopardy
by such an ENHANCEMENT in case of fire
or runaway teams, thereby causing loss
of life and property. Under such con-
ditions the corporation would be held re-
sponsible, and to avert such a catastro-

Thirty five Prisoners Burn in an
Anticipated Cage.

Trapped by flames on the second floor
of an antlquated convict cage, IS negro
prisoners were burned to death on the
Oakley Convict Farm, 20 miles from
Jackson, Miss. Rescuers were unable
10 aid them, and were forced TO see
them perish behind the bars.
The conviCts all were worked IN the
cotton fields of the State farm and were
housed for the night in the cage "
Among them were some of the most
desperate criminals and they were serv-
ing long sentences. The farm is one OF
the most important in the State, the
State prison hospital being located there.
No other building was in danger, how
ever.

The pay received by the railroads
for the transportation Of mail averages
about ci-ht cents a ton mile. which IS
equivalent to a charge of one cent tor

distance Of $50 miles The new rate is
one cent per pound within radius of
1870 miles. But all the packages mailed

Government would receive one cent a
pound for transportation which costs it
four mills. The profit would be six mills
per pound.
The cost of postal handling, collection,
delivery, etc, is more than covered by
the initial charge Of five cents for the
first pound. This would he clear gain
on all packages over five pounds in weight.
Computations based on postal experience
show collection and delivery cost to be
per letter , cents; per four pound par
Gel 81 cents. The experience Of New

package as the cost of delivery for all
weights, no limit and an inquiry con
Quoted by the Massachusetts, Institute of
Technology gives the identical result.
The express companies whose shipments
average in weight 81 pounds, give seven
cents per package as ,he cost of hand

master General would therefore assure
the Government a margin Of income over

cents per parcel.

the probable volume Of parcel post bu,i

800, 600, 600 parcels the postoffice is
likely to handle Goo.o00, 600 the first
year; and under the stimulus of the lower

carry more than one-third of this en-

average only Is cents per parcel, the
revenue would be $50, 600. 600; and one
