| Will FALL AGAIN
About Forty More Clerks to
Be Dropped Soon, Says
Burleson.
IS OPPOSED TO PENSION
Postal Chief. Giving Economy as Rea-
son for Dismissals. Calls Employees
Already Favored"

There Is CONSERVATION in the city Post
thce as a result of the announcement by
postmaster Genersl Burleson yesterday
hat about forty more clerks soon may
|e dropped from the service. Coming on
be heels of the discharge of eighteen
ben, among them seven Union veterans,
he announcement struck with the sud
|enness of a thunderbolt.
There is no telling exactly where the
|R Will fall this time. but judging from
he Postmaster Generals words, the men
the dead letter division seem to be
Se ones marked for dismissal Short
hts to be adopted by October in the
Zndling of that class of mail will neces-
ate the reduction of that force, ac-
riding to the head of the department,
the sake, Of economy.
Not to FIJI Places.
The statement that the other eighteen
re discharged to make room for Demo-
is is false" declared Mr.. Burleson.
OF a single man has been appointed in
ce of sny of them, and ! do not in
ID to put on any in place of those yet
go. Without desiring to unnecessarily
ticise any OF my predecessors, / am
lnd to say it is a fact that in the past
IS have been created in the depart
MT simply to give men employment,
in consequence the pay rolls have
n padded. In all conscience l cannot
prove of such wanton extravaganza
waste of public money
lr. Burleson charged that the agita-
against the discharge of the eighteen
ks was born of a desire to create
kivil pension list" He said he was
,osed to anything Of that kind. and
Federal employees already were a
ored list.
he local committee, headed by Full
R. Gordon, obtained a promise from
sident Wilson on Thursday that he
take up the cases of the eighteen
missed clerks with the Postmaster
heral to see what, il anything, could
done for them.
viii Let More Go.
he postal chief announced his inten-
to let more go just before he went
the Cabinet meeting yesterday. The
hmittee feels it can do nothing 10
d off the Postmaster Generals plan
ept leave the matter in the hands Of
President.
lrther commenting on the matter, Mr..
Lesson said:
am as strong A partisan as any
but / will make one statement
th do not believe can be challenged
we made fewer changes in the Post
he Department for partisan reasons

so happens that by my new busi-
methods adopted In the department
had eighteen clerks on our hands
absolutely nothing to do. I think |
were entirely right in disr1issing |

have forty more clerks in the Dead |
ter Office who will possibly be out OF

S2,50O,000 TOLL
Of BIC BLAZE
At DURHAM

DURHAM, N. c., March 24.-After
raging for ten hours and doing dam
age estimated at $5,000,000 fire that
swept the business district of Dur
ham was gotten under control at 3
o'clock this morning.
The blaze started at II o'clock last
night in the Duke Building, occupied
on the first floor by the Woolworth
Ten Cent Store and on the four upper
floors by offices. 1t spread through
the three principal business blocks of
the downtown section, destroying
twenty buildings. The Duke Build
ing, the first to burn, was the largest
in the city. The largest stores in the
city were wiped out.
Among the buildings in the path of
the flames were the City Hall, Post
office. First Baptist Church, Farm
ers and Merchants Bank, First Ma
tional Bank. Markham Harris cloth
ing store, Q. E. Rawls, dry goods
store, Prtchard- Bright clothing store
two department stores, two drug
stores and a large stationery store.
1t is believed the vault of the
Farmers and Merchants Bank is
ruined and valuable papers, securi-
ties, jewels and currency and cash
destroyed. The First National build
ing was extinguished before much
damage was done. About half of the
fire loss is covered by insurance.
Militia are on duty guarding prop
erty and keeping the curious back
from the danger zone, where rem
nants of walls are threatening to fall.
While the fire was in progress there
were many thrilling escapes as build
ing after building collapsed. Several
firemen were injured. The work Of
lighting he fire was made hazardo IS
by the explosion of powder and am
munition in hardware stores and
chemicals in the drug houses.
Fire companies were rushed here
special trains from Raleigh and
Greensboro, and aided the local de-
partment in checking the flames. The
work of the firemen was handicapped
by the bursting of a big water main
that cut off the water supply for g
time. The electric power plant was
shut down during the night to pre-
vent accidents from live wires.
To-day's fire was the largest in the
history of Durham or this section Of
North Carolina.
