CARRIER S FAY Is RESTORED.
B. F. Martin, Injured Last July, to
Get $1,000 Instead of 81 600

Benjamin F. Martin. letter carrier in
the Washington post Office, was in
iured, July $, and is still absent from
work.
August l last year, in accordance with
ruling of the Post Office .Departmen,
fixing 1000 as the maximum salary OF
letter carriers, he was reduced from
$1,000 to that status. An act of Con
gress decreed that letter carriers so re.
duced should be restored to their origi-
nal salary.
The law provides that letter carrie
injured in service shall be given leave
with full pay until able to return to
work. and authorizes employment of a
substitute carrier over the period Of alb
sence. The problem arose as to what
rate of pay should be granted the in
jured man in view of the fact that the
restoration of higher salary. basis was
effective only after July /, and had not
yet been applied.
The acting controller of the Treasury
Charles Marshall Force, decides that
Letter Carrier Martin is to receive pay
at the rate of $1,000 year, from July
the date his position was restored to
it's former grade.

Opinion of London Papers.

LONDON. October 23.-The papers
print long editorials on the assassina-
tion of Premier Stuergkh. The general
opinionAexpressed is that the removal
of Stuergkh is the work of men who
wish to free the Austrian government
from a clique of politicians who are
largely controlled by the Hungarian
Premier Tisza in the interests OF the
MagyarS and Germany. On this theory
the assassination is held to represent
the Austrian movement to escape from
the domination of Berlin.
The assassination of Count Stuergkh
lends new interest to the details of a
plot to assassinate Count Tisza, the
Hungarian premier. which reached
London today by mail, from Budapest.
Two young men who were arrested in
connection with this plot were named
Zoltanbiro and Zaborsky. Each of
them is nineteen years old. ~.
They had carefully made their plans,
purchased revolvers prepared meas
ures for their escape from the coun-
try afterward and had communicated
with several persons from whom they
expected assistance.
At their trial one of the young men
pleaded not guilty, but made a defiant
political speech, in which he denounced
Count Tisza as traitor against the
nation. and declared he would continue
the plot against the premier's life as
soon as he was free. Owing to their
comparative youth Zoltanbiro and
Zaborsky were sentenced to only five
months imprisonment with the provi-
sion that both should join the colors
at the expiration of their sentences.
