It was agreed, subject to change, that the railway mail service should be added as a separate branch of the civil ser vice, making four in all, viz.: departmental service, customs service, postal service and railway mail service. the rci.es and regulations. As soon as the postmaster-general has furnished the information essential to a proper classification, the commission will prepare the necessary rules and regulations which will be submitted to the President for his approval and promulgation. The service now contains about 5,200 officers and clerks, all of whom, with the exception of the general superintendent and his assistant, will be brought within the clas sified service. Of the whole number, fifty five are chief clerks, who receive $1,400 per annum; four are assistant superintendents, who receive $1,600 per annum, and oleven division superintendents, who receive a salary of $2,500 per annum. The salaries of the regular clerks range from $1,400 downward. THE PRESENT EMPLOYES. It is not proposed to require the clerks now in the service to pass an examination in order to retain their positions, but their efficiency will be periodically tested by a practical examination on what is known as the “case;” that is, each clerk will be re quired to toss into a case of pigeon holes 1,000 cards addressed to post offices, the location of which they are supposed to be familiar with. Time and accuracy will de termine the rating in these examinations. INTERSTATE COMMERCE LAW. Leopold Morse Introduces a Bill for Its Repeal. Washington, Dec. 10.—Representative Leopold Morse says that he proposes to press his bill introduced to-day repealing the interstate commerce law. lie will go before the committee on commerce, to which it was referred, and make an argu ment in favor of it. He says he can prove by facts and figures that the law has proved a blunder, and a very costly one to the busi ness of the country. It is the provisions against pooling and against charging more for a short than for a long haul, which seem to him to have most seriously ham pered the commerce of the country. BELIEVES IT UNAMERICAN. He said to-night with much emphasis: “I believe the law is unrepublican, undem ocratic, un-American. It has depreciated the value of stocks and bonds without any compensating benefit to the public. I believe that the prosperity of this country is largely due to the free action of a free people in their own way without the inter ference of the government. I be lieve that the law is mistaken, and the prosperity and welfare of the people would be greater without it than they are with it. I have not consulted the railroad people about this matter. If they believe as I do it would be tvell for them, by petition or otherwise, to make their feel ings known, with a hope of securing favor able legislation.” CARLISLE ON THE OUTLOOK. The Territorial Admission Bills to Be Pushed. Washington, Dec. 10. —Speaker Carlisle says that the caucus to-morrow night will probably decide that the appropriation bills and the bill providing for the admission of Dakota, Montana, Washington and New Mexico, will be the important legislation to be put through the House this session. He thinks that other legislation is impractica ble. He has no expectation that there will be any legislation reducing the revenue. The Senate amendments to the Mills bill will probably be buried in the ways and means committee. The republicans have made tax reduction impossible in this con gress. REFUGE FOR WHALERS. Congress to be Asked to Establish a Couple of Stations. Washington, Dec. 10.—L. P. Ashmead of Philadelphia is here, and Capt. W. O. N. Swift of New Bedford is on his way here to urge congress to establish refuge stations at Point Barrow and East Cape for the wrecked whalers of the Arctic. They will erst $5,000 apiece. They also ask that $20,- 000 be appropriated to repair the United States steamer Bear, so that the Bear and the Thetis may go to Behring strait again next season. Over 2,000 whalemen have been wrecked in the past fifteen years, many of whom have perished for lack of a refuge. MAHONE’S AMBITION. The Postmaster Generalship the Eee In His Bonnet. Washington, Dec. 10.—Gen. Mahone, as the head of the republican machine in Vir ginia, claims recognition of the incoming administration. He asks to be made Post master General that he may manage the postoffices of the country as he managed those of Virginia under the last administra tion. Gen. Harrison will not give him the place. He has a very good excuse In the fact that the anti-Mahone republicans have indorsed their leader, John S. Wise, for Attorney General. Disappointing both will, however, more embroil the fray. CANDLEh’S DEFENSE. ' ' ■■■■— • He Has Counsel In Every County to Watch His Interests. Washington, Dec. 10.—Mr. Candler was in his seat to-day and chatted cheerfully with his friends about the contest for bis seat. He has no fears of the outcome, for he says ho has an indubitable majority of 1.500. Nevertheless he is leaving nothing to chance. He will have counsel in every disputed county to represent his interest. He has already retained ex-Rerresentative N. J. Hammond, Baker & Boyd, J. B. Sil inan, S. C. Dunlap, Wofford & Edwards, P. 11.

The annual missionary anniversary of the Guyton Methodist Sunday school was held at Guyton Sunday night, and was both entertaining and instructive. The singing was excellent, and the recitations by little Janie Toolo, “A Plea for Children,” and by Master Henry Guyton, “Nothing to Do,” were well received. A joint recitation, “'A Plea from the Nations,” by ten little girls in costumes representing as many nations, was a pretty feature of the programme. The misses were: Ba sie Winn, Maud Jenkins, Minnie Morgan, Belle Guyton, Corine Symons, Elia Rogers, May Meil, Cassie Pritchard, Edna Blackwell and Laurie Blackshear. Supt. A. E. Bird re ported the mission collections for the year in the Sunday school at $97, a decided in crease, and an increase of work and an in crease in the Sunday school. Rev. O. G. Mingiedorff gave a pleasing talk on missionary work, in which idolatorv was dealt with in an entertaining way. Mr. Micgledorff, who was at one time a missionary to China, had some of the idols on exhibition at the meeting, and he gave each of the scholars a souvenir in the shape of a Chinese coin, 100 of which coins aro worth about 10 cents in American coin. He said he had seen Chinamen fake their money to market in a wheelbarrow, and the marketing it purchased was trundled home in tho same vehicle with no greater physical exortion than it required to wheel the market money. At the clcse of the exercises a handsome collection was taken up by the Misses Emmie Biid and Katie Arden and Masters Maurice Adams and Joe Lawrence. To-night is to be a gala one at Guyton. Tne Knights of Pythias lodge is to be or ganized and its officers installed. The exer cises will be preceded by a supper aud fol lowed by a hop. ON BAIL AND CROSSTIE. Local and General Gossip In Railway Circles. Experiments in the use of petroleum as a fuel for locomotives have been made for some time on the Toledo, Columbus and Southern railroad with such success that it is now an nounced that the company will change all its locomotives from coal to oil burners. Bulloch county is jubilant over its pro posed new railroad. The railroad is run from Dover to Statesboro, and the States boro Eagle says that it will probably be ex tended to Excelsior. It is estimated that $19,(t00 will build the road. Augusta par ties are Interested in the enterprise. At the annual meeting of the Plant In vestment Company the following board of directors was elected; H. B. Plant, W. S. Chisholm, Henry Sanford, M. K. Jesup, B. F. Newcomer, E. B. Haskell, 11. M. Flagler. Mr. Haskell was elected in the place of the late Mr. Pnlsifer, and Mr. Flagler in the place of the late Mr. Black stone. The board met last Saturday and elected tho following officers; President, H. B. Plant; vice-president, W. S. Chis holm; secretary, H. P. Headley; assistant secretary, R. B. Smith; treasurer, R. B. Smith. How many railway companies are there in the United States; is sometimes asked but is not readily answered. The number of corporations represented bv the railway mileage in operation June 30, 1888, is stated in the interstate commerce commission’s re port at 1,251, but so many companies are controlled and operated by others that the whole number of corporations making re port of operations at that date was 665. How many other companies represent rail ways under construction or projected is difficult to say, but they aggregate many hundreds. The United States census of June, 1880, gave the total number of rail way corporations in the country as 1,165. If the interstate commerce commission’s figures are correct the number of such cor porations existing June 30, 1888, showed a not increase of only 86 in eight years, which would indicate that the process of consoli d itioa had been carried on to a remarkable exteDt, as many hundreds of new compa nies with completed roads have come into existence in that period. The index to Poor’s Manual for 1888 enumerates 1,530 different companies in tho United States, besides those of Canada and Mexico. Patient—Doctor, I can’t sleep nights. What shall I do? Doctor—Get a position somewhere as night watchman.— Judge. Rheumatism Is undoubtedly caused by lactic acid in the blood.
