Central Portion Practically Bare

Inside the great central portion of
the main floor was practically bare.
Cases here and there were being hus-
tied around by laborers. preparatory to
being moved over to the new quarters.
Filing cases and other Office furniture
obstructed a part of the floor space.
but in the main the central space be-
hind the outer windows was deprived
OF furniture by $50 o'clock.
Papers and torn envelopes covered
the floor. The immensely of the build
ing was never so clearly revealed to
chance observers as it was last even
ing after the city post Office was re-
moved and the space occupied by it
for so many years was unoccupied.
Now it will be no use for hurrying

be anything-it's all gone over to the

COMMITTEE ON RAILWAY
MAIL PAY IS GRAnF|ED
Pleased That Joint Congressional
Committee Sustained Main
Contention.

NEW YORK, September 5.-Following
a meeting Of the committee on railway
mail pay, held to discuss the report sub
mitted to Congress by the joint commit
tee on railway mail pay, Ralph Peters.
chairman of the committee representing
2ls principal railroads of the country.
authorized the following statement:
.It is most gratifying that the joint
congressional committee fully and unan-
imously sustains our main contention
that the railroads are now materially
underpaid for carrying the mails.
THE committee proposes a plan of pay
ment which will give the railroads nm
increase of s3.OoO.OoO a year. and com
pletely supports the companies in tho
other leading principles which they have
urged, namely:
THAT the railroads are entitled to n
fair commercial profit for carrying the
mails; that apartments in cars fitted up
as travelling post offices should he paid
for; that the railroads should be paid for
the terminal messenger service they now
perform. and that the system of weighing
the mails only once in four years In un-
just and unbusinesslike.
To Accept Committees Views.
while the congressional committee
does not see eye to eye with the railroads
as to the total compensation due the
companies for their mail service. the
railroad committee has expressed Its WILL
lingness to accept the views of the Bourne
committee upon this main question Of
fact.
1.-The specific plan proposed by the
Bourne committee for hereafter meeting
the underpayment due the companies Is
open to question. The feeling of the rail-
road managers is that the present sys-
TEN of payment, based on the weight Of
the mails and the distance over which it
is carried, is scientific. and that If fairly
administered it should be satisfactory. 1t
actually measures and provides payment
for the actual service performed. The
proposed plan does not.
That, however. is a technical matter.
The Bourne committee has established
the doctrine that the railroads should be
compensated on commercial basis for
the services they render. The railroad
committee is now prepared to cooperate
with Congress in establishing detailed
standards of payment which should place
this purely commercial relation of the
government and the railways upon a
sound business basis
