Plan Is To Facilitate Parcel
Post Shipments Down
the State
Mr.. ENGLISH WORKS
FOR INNOVATION

With the idea Of improving the pos
tai facilities OF the city and also pro-
yiding more time for local merchants
to prepare goods Cor down State
points via parcel post, Postmaster
English is endeavorlng to have a
branch Office opened at the Peunsyl-
vania railroad station. The Railway
Mail Service which has been con-
templating maintaining branch Offices
for the receipt and shipment Of pack
ages via parcel post at all railroad
terminals will likely inauguratc such
a plan here,
This Is necessary as Wilmington be-
ing the terminal of the Delaware di-
vision OF the Pennsylvania railroad.
many packages are sent over that
road daily and with such a branch
office at the railroad station Il would
be possible for merchants TO have
fully an hour longer TO prepare pack
ages for shipment TO down State
points. AS II is now all packages
nave HinA W We AfNfiN'u at AN' ANANA
postoflice and then transported to the
railroad station, Under the proposed
system all packages intended for
down state points would be received
at the branch Office and then shipped.
This would mean an extension Of time
to the merchants and also make the
work on the force at the postohico
easier.
Postmaster English Is endeavorine
to have the proposed branch Office
handle all fourth class mail matter
at the railroad station. which Is in
tended for down state points.
In addition to handling this mai
matter, the force on duty al the
branch Office would dispose OF stamps
and in this way Wilmington would
really have two postofIlces, and thir

ternoon at Delaware City where he
investigated the death of Private
John Burns, the soldier who was

that this was due to the forgetfulness

had met with foul play. There were
no marks OF wounds on the body as
far as he could sec in an examina-
ton at the undertaking establish
ment, where the body is at present.
On one side he found what appeared

evidently had been deep and long, but
It was healed and had been inflicted a
long time ago. The coroner is salts
fled that Burns came to his death by
accidental drowning.
The body is being held pending in
structions from the mans relatives
When the inquest will be held has not
