iu ho. Oct. 0, lHii'). To bis Excellency Major
General Johr. W. Geary, Governor of Pennsyl
vaniaSir: In -accordance with the statutory
provisions which direct ine from time to time to
communicate to you the condition of the busi
ness of my department, I have the honor to lay
before you a brief sUtemeilt of my ollleial ac
tions. I' pou entering upon my dutv as Attor-ucv-Gcueral,
I found in the department, uncol
lected, claims amounting to iwo hundred and
fcventy-four thousand seven hundred and fifty
two dollars and twenty-two cents ( vJU,"ij'i ).
Of these I have collected two hundred and
fortv-nve thousand seven hundred nud fifiy-Uvc
dollars and ninety-seven ccnu i5,T;j.'l'i
The balance, twenty-eight thousand nine
hundred and nincty-slx dollar and twenty-five
cents (iUS.tlltiWoi, being mo.-tly duo from in
solvent oil companies, will probably never be
recovered.
I find, by comparison, that this balance of old
claims, uncollected, is unprecedented!' small.
During my term of ofllee there lias iieeu certi
fied to me for collection -up to July last, the
time of my last quarterly statement to the State
Treasurer--claims amounting to four hundred
and thirty-two thousand live hundred and fifty
one, dollars and sixty-seven cents ($4:W,55Hi7):
of these 1 have collected tiirce hutred and
niiicty-nine thousand seven hucdred and forty
live dollars aud seven cents Ji "m:, 7-15-07). The
balance, amouuting to thirty-two thousand eight
hundred aud six dollar and sixty cent
l.i-,ooo-oo j nan hucii jiui iu t un, out me money
may not be made, either on account of the de
fendants' Insolvency or the failure to obtain
service.
During the last quarter there has bocu certified
to me one hundred and thirty-eight thousand
two huudrcd and llfty-seven dollars and sixty
live cents ($i;M,2.77,(i.'i), nearly all haviug coiiie
to uiy hands within a month. These havo cither
becu paid or suits commenced, all of which re
being prosecuted with the utmost speed. In
fact, at the present time there is notin thlsdep,rt
incnt a single claim which is uot as far advaueed
tho arrangement of the term days of the
courts will allow. The entire collection made
by me and paid luto tho State Treasury ainotmti
to nine hundred and eighty-seven thousand nine
hundred and nine dollars aud seven cents (frlW,
(K10 07), of which there has been collected during
Die past quarter one hundred aud two thousand
four hundred and eighty-eight dollars and thirty
lie cents (10a,4S8':).
In addition to the sums collected as above, I
liave recovered In tho Court below suits amouut
ifj to flity-eeveu thousand uU Jumdicd and
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY,
fifty dollars and ninety-live cents, but which
have not yet been raid, because of the de
fendants having sued out writs of error. To
collect these various sums, I have Issued three
hundred and forty-six writs (340). All of theso
cases havo been concluded, with the exception
I will hereafter mention, and all of them, except
five, have been decided In favor of the Common
wealth at final judgment. At tho recent session
of the Supreme Court at Ilarrlsburg, a decision
was given In the tonnage tax cases, which havo
been jicnding since HM. The decision was in
favor of the Commonwealth, and secured a reve
nue of over two hundred thousand dollars per
annum.
The accumulated debt under this tax makes
dlrectlv dependent upon the decision over six
hundred thousand dollars C(i00,000). Tho cor
porations are about to take out writs of error to
the United States Supreme Court. At the same
term of court the gross receipt cases would have
been also argued, had they not been postponed
unt 11 Jan uary at the request of defendants' counsel
who wanted time for preparation, and also as
the decision of the tonnage tax cases, If favora
ble to tho State, would carry with it these eases.
Such a contingency having happened, the gross
receipt cases may be considered as virtually de
cided iu favor of 'the Commonwealth.
The amount involved is about the same asthat
of the tonnage tax, viz: over Iwo hundred thou
sand dollars per annum. The various cases
which have occurred since the June term of the
Dauphin county Common Pleas are in a condi
tion to be heard ut the next term.
In conclusion, 1 would respectfully repeat my
invitation to your Excellency- to examine iu per
son the books and records of my otliee.
1 Lave the honor to be, with great respect,
Your obedient servant.

I'ldlntblnliln Suli. Post OMIitn.
Postmaster Bingham came down ou Saturd ay
ind submitted a plan to the Postmaster-General
for the closing' out of live of the lar.e city sub
post ofllecs in Philadelphia, A. tl, 0, D and K,
ut. which there are employed eighty-live letter
carriers. Postmaster Binirkaiii reuuested that
tliffo letter-carriers be transferred to the Cen
tral Post Oliicc.
The expenditure required for kcepin-r un the
live stations ho proposed to expend in --trout car
i.ire. ami each earner lo tie transported lrom the
ci iitral ollice to the coiunieiicemont of his route.
1 he result ol closing out tho sub-stations will
secure greater honesty, and less liability to error,
ati immediate correction of errors when dis
covered, uud from one-half to ihree-ii miners of
in hour greater celerity in the ruuniiii' of each
riUte. Direct route communication can be
secured under the proposed arrangement
throughout all the built-up portions of the city,
which is iuipo.-Mi.uc miner ine present system.
This plan requires no increase of force or ex
pense. Ihe discontinuance ol tho sub-post
ollices will not ho felt, and the improvement
resulting from a consolidation of tho force at
the central oliicc, iu connection with the speedy
street car transportation, will be appreciated by
the business community of Philadelphia.
