CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1904.
UNCLE SAM'S POSTAL SERVICE
POSTOFFICES AT CLOSE OF FIS
CAL YEAR NUMBER 71,131,
RURAL FREE DELIVERY EXTENDED.
: Nearly 1,600 Offices Were Burglarized
—66 Postal Cars Were Wrecked
—Deficiency in Revenue Ag
gregates $8,779,492.
Washington, Dec. 3. —Extension of
| the rural free delivery service lias re
i suited in an increase of 1,125 in tho
j number of postoffices discontinued |
j during the fiscal year ended June 30,
j 1904, according to the annual report
, of J. L. Bristow, fourth assistant post
master general, made public yester
day. During the year there were 2,549
j postoffices established and 5,557 dis
| continued. There was a decrease of
j 158 in the number of offices establish
! ed. The principal cause of the in
| crease in discontinuances has been
| the extension of the rural free deliv
[ ery service. The total number of dis- |
| continuances was 3,750 postoffices,
with a saving in salaries of postmas
| ters aggregating $171,121. At the
close of the fiscal year there were 71,-
131 postoffices in the United States —
205 first class, 1,204 second class, 3,890
third class and 05,700 fourth class.
An appropriation of $3,000,000 for
the establishment of new routes will
be asked by the department for the
1 fiscal year ending June 30, 1900. Of
the needs for the service Mr. Bristow
says:
"There are now in operation 28,073
routes. It is estimated that 2,000 addi
tional routes can bo established out
of the appropriation now available,
| making 30,073 which will be in opera
i tion or ordered established by January
15, 1905. To maintain service on these
routes from July 1, 1905, to June 30,
1900, will require $21,300,000.
"If congress should make a sup
plemental appropriation of $500,000
for the current fiscal year, as suggest
ed, additional routes can be establish
| ed, bringing the number in operation
! lime 30, 1905, up to approximately 32,- ;
500. In that event about $23,120,000
will be required to maintain the serv- |
ice during the next fiscal year, making
a total appropriation of $20,120,000 for
' the maintenance and installation of
I the service for the next fiscal year."
The report shows that during the j
| year 1,593 postoffices were robbed: ;
j there were Oo depredations on railway j
j postoffices, star routes, rural free de- !
J livery routes and screen wagon serv- i
ice. There were 940 robberies of
| street and rural free delivery letter !
! boxes. Sixty-six postal cars were j
burned and wrecked, and 500 post
offices were burned. There were 2,379
mail pouches lost, damaged or rifled.
An increased deficiency of 92.53 per I
cent, over the previous year is shown j
jby the financial statement for the !
j postal service, incorporated in the an
nual report of E. C. Madden, third as
sistant postmaster general. The re
port shows that the increase in ex
penditure's is on account of the rural |
free delivery service. Were it not for I
this extraordinary expenditure the [
postal service now would be about
self-sustaining. The total receipts !
from all sources for the fiscal year
were $143,582,624 and the total ex- !
penditures $152,302,116, leaving a de- j
ficiency of $8,779,492.
Money taken from dead letters, for !
which no owneis could be found, and I
that realized from the auction sale of
unclaimed articles sccumulated in the j
dead letter office aggregated $22,210. j
Three Trainmen Killed.
Columbus, Ind., Dec. 3.—While run
ning 50 miles an hour, a northbound
passenger train on the Pennsylvania
road last night ran into a construction
train two miles north of this city, in
stantly killing three trainmen, fatally
injuring one other and inflicting in
juries upon a score of passengers. The
dead: Samuel Crow, Jefferson ville,
passenger engineer. Herman C. Jones,
Columbus, brakeman. E. W. Achen
bach, Indianapolis, fireman. The pas
senger coaches did not leave the track
and none of the passengers was badly
injured. Fireman Achenbach's body
was burned to a crisp in his engine.
Mints' Output Largest on Record.
Washington, Dec. 3. —The director
of the mint, in his annual report,
shows that the output of the mints at
Philadelphia, San Francisco and New
Orleans, which were in operation
throughout the fiscal year, was the
largest on record. It estimates the
gold stock of the world in use as
money on December 31, 1903, at ap
proximately $5,600,000,000, of which
about half is visible In banks and pub
lic treasuries. The estimate for the
stock of the United States at that
time is $1,300,000,000, of which $859,-
000,000 was in the treasury and na
tional banks.
A Blaze on the Pike.
St. Louis, Dec. 3.—Fire - i«*t night
broke out in the attraction on the
world's fair pike known as "Quo
Vadls," and spread to the Japanese pa
vilion abjoining. A first alarm brought
out alj the fire fighting apparatus in
the world's fair grounds, but it was
soon seen that the firemen would not
be able to cope with the flames and it
was followed by a general alarm. The
financial loss is not great.
Panic Followed a Collision.
New York, Dec. 3. —Eight hundred
passengers on the ferryboat Paunpeck
were thrown into a panic last evening
and several were injured when tht'
ferryboat was struck in midstream by
a Hudson liver steamer, tho name of
which has not yet been learned.
Father and Son Were Sentenced.
St. Louis, Dec. 3. —James N. Rice :
and his son, J. N. Rice, jr., 17 years!
| old, were yesterday sentenced in the j
district court on counterfeiting |
charges. Rice was given ten years in
the penitentiary and his son three
years in the reform school.
THE CHADWICK AFFAIR.
Friends Come to Her Aid and Banker
Newton Will be Paid.
New York, Dec. 3.—Mrs. Oassie L.
Chad wick made another visit to tho
financial district yesterday. On Thurs
day she went through the Wall street
section almost unobserved and scarce
ly more than a dozen persons knew of
j her presence in the street. Yesterday,
however, her coming had been herald
i ed and when she drove up to the build
j ing in which the offices of the Central
J Trust Co. and the attorneys whom she
: visited Thursday are located, the
! street was thronged with a curious
crowd. In a few moments the crowd
! had swollen to such proportions that
half a dozen extra policemen were
j called to preserve order and clear a
passage way through the street.
After waiting an hour or more for
Mrs. Chadwick to reappear the crowd
learned that, she had given them the
slip by going over the roofs from the
Central Trust Co. building to a build
ing on Pine street. There she had
made her way to William street and
drove away while the crowd waited
; half a block away. At neither the
1 Central Trust Co. nor the office of the
attorneys could anything regarding
Mrs. Chadwick's visit be learned.
| "Powerful aid lias saved the day
for her."
This statement was made Friday by
George Ryall, of local counsel for Her
| bert D. Newton, in discussing the set
j tlernent of his client's claim against
Mrs. Chadwick.
Where Mrs. Chadwick obtained the
aid Mr. Ryall did not state.
Ryall also said: "Statements that
Mrs. Chadwick is to pay only $78,000
of Mr. Newton's claim at this time are
untrue. The person who came to Mrs.
! Chadwick's relief will pay to me in a
few hours the full amount of the claim
of $190,800, with a reasonable amount
of interest besides. I will give that
money to Mr. Newton and he will
never know "who paid it to me. I can
not reveal the identity of Mrs. Chad
wick's friend."
Cleveland, Dec. 3. —A petition in in
voluntary bankruptcy was filed
against Mrs. Chadwick in United
States court Friday. The plaintiffs
S are Jacques Krakaur, New York, deal
-1 erin laces and embroidery, claiming a
debt of $000; George Couch, Cleve
-1 land, liveryman, claiming a debt of
S3OO, and H. F. Potter, Cleveland, mer
chant, claiming a debt of S2OO for mer
chandise. The plaintiffs allege that
the giving of a note to the Elyria bank
by Mrs. Chadwick at the time she was
so indebted to them was an act of in
| solvency.
Friday afternoon Referee Harold
Remington appointed Nathan Loeser
1 receiver for all of Mrs. Chadwick's
( property on the application of tiie
plaintiffs in the bankruptcy suit.
TRADE BULLETIN.
Holiday Goods are Moving Freely and
There Is More Activity in Staple
Lines.
New York, Dec. 3. —R. G. Dun &
| Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Holiday goods are moving freely,
! and in staple lines there is more ac
j tivity, even the products that are be
tween seasons finding a fair market.
I Packing and shipping departments
j are increasing forces and traffic con
! gestion at several points indicates
! that the growth of business has over
j taxed railway facilities. Earnings of
' all roads reporting for November show
j an average gain of 7.1 per cent, over
! last year. Weather conditions have
| favored jobbing and retai! distribution
| of heavy wearing apparel, and also ac
| celerated the marketing of new corn,
! but there is not sufficient moisture for
i winter wheat or coke production.
A record breaking yield of cotton is
| bringing the price nearer the point at
which normal consumption may be re
sumed, although there is still much
idle machinery at Fall River. Other
manufacturing news is most gratify
ing, especially regarding the leading
lines. Structural work increases and
car shops are crowded with orders,
while many idle steel mills have re
sumed.
Commercial failures this week in
the United States are 245, against 331
the corresponding week last year.
Failures in Canada number 29, against
23 last year.
Seeks a Queer Injunction.
Chicago, Dec. 3. —Injunction to pre
vent his wife from talking was asked
Friday in the circuit court by Thomas
P. Wood, a carpenter. In defending
his own name from alleged scandal
Wood declares he is also acting far
the good of a Mrs. Margaret Watson.
He fears, he says, that his wife will
tell things about him to the members
of secret societies to which they be
long. He also seeks to stop oral ut
terance of his wife in Newtonville, 0.,
and Muncle, Ind. In her "overheated
imagination" Wood declares his wife
"has conjured visionary and absurd
scandals."
Oldest American Actress Dies.
Chicago, Dec. 3. —Mrs. George Gil
bert, the oldest actress on the Ameri
can stage, died at the Sherman house
Friday, shortly after she had suffered
a stroke of apoplexy. Mrs. .Gilbert is
the star of the play "Granny," written
for her by Clyde Fitch. The company
was organized by Charles Frohman
and was put before the public as a
tribute to Mrs. Gilbert's long career on
the stage. When she started to tour
the country it was the intention to
present the play in every city where
she had played during her career and
at the conclusion she was to retire.
Coroner's Jury Exonerated Felton.
New York, Dec. 3. —Stewart A. Fel
ton, the gambler who shot Guy Roche,
another gambler, in Broadway
Thanksgiving evening, was exonerat
ed yesterday by a coroner's jury which
decided that he acted in self-defense.
He was remanded back to the Tombs,
however, as he is under ind.ctment on
a charge of murder in the first degree.
