Mr. Frank Jlaccken, aged 838 years, residence Forty-clghtl street and tirand boulevard, father- fu-law of Mr. William_ Klinger, while attempt- inir to board a State strect car last evening, near Fourtcenth street, while the car was in motfon, fell with Juts loit arin under the car-wheel. The arin was badly crushed to within three fnches of the shoulder-joint. He was taken tothe new Burgical Justitute adjoining Wennctt Medical College, where the arin was amputated at the u!mulder-iulm. by Prol. Miiton Jay, assisted by Prof. Bucking. "The surgeon has but little hope of his recovery. RAILWAY POSTal CLERKS. For some time there has been an ominous muttering among the employes of the Railway Lostal Service, which at last has made itself heard ot Washington. Heavy and voluminous petitions for redress of gricvances have been prepared and forwarded to an Iilinols Republi- can Congressman, and that izentieman now has the matter fn charge and will appear at an carly day before Pustmnster General Key to make an” argument on bebalf of his aggricved potitioners, It scems that Geperal Superin. tendent Vale, In charge of the Rallroad Postal Hervice, bns Issued several orders which bear with great hardship upon the emply’us of the service. One order s to the effect that all rallway postal clerks shall, upon arrival at the end of thelr run, o immediately to the Post-Office nnd register thelr names, or suffer a forfeiture of the per dlem earned on that trip. Now, numbers of these clerks live in the country, and alter rune ning a week and hiaving a lay-o(t, they are nox- fous to get home at once,” And s time-cards are arranged, no sooner does one train come In than auother goes out, the time consumed in golng to the Post-Oftice ta replster is just enough to cause them to imiss Lhe outgolng train, and a delay of twelve hours fs experi- enced. HMeretofore the postal clerk hus consid- cred his run terminated when his pouches nre delfverea to the :ail-carriers at the depot. Another order prohibits wall-wagon drivers from allowing more than one man to ride with them to and from the tralns, This, the clerks say, causcs them loss of time and additional ex- peuse, und exhibits no corresponding benetit to the ~service, But the crowning order of dissatisfaction is the one requiring bim to expend &35 or for a uniform. Under existing rules no ono is allowed ing postal-car; from the moment the pouches are turned oser to the clerk he is required to close and fasten his doors, and they sav it can make littlo diflerenco to the scrvice whether they wear (as they nsually do) overalls or n uni- form. Oninterior and feeder lines the pay of a postal clerk Is hardly £500 per annum, and to dotazh 830 or #40 from that scant salary is a hardship in the extreme. tated above, n number of clerks runting u and out of Chleagn have rebelled sgalnst these several orders, and a Coogressinan of reputation and experience in Central Illinois will soon lay thelr grisvauces before the Departme: THE NEW BOARD. 18 1T THUR, MR. AYARS Another very secret caucus of County Com- missloners wus held yesterday, aud this thae it ‘was thought that the repurters would be avold- ed. But such Is not thecase, 8 the * Rinps- tera” will agree as they read these few linea, It was beld In the forenoon,—It s salil under the surveillance ot Perlolut,—und it was a gath- ering of the old clan, and ia the interest of Rountree, Ayars, aod the old guard. Anat. tempt was made to get Fitzgerald In the crowd, and Ayars had beeu nssigned tothe work, and was to have met him at the Sherman Houso at 9:30 o'lock to have the thing urranged. Fitz did not ineet, however, and was left out, but the mecetinge wus held and the programme lald out. To muke o long story short, the result of the innhermz wus tho Deniocrats were to vote for yurs for Chairmau of the Board,—and they ob- lizated to dellver Tabor's vote, also, which would give him elght votes with his owi.—and n return Ayars was to vote for Rouutreo for County Attorney, and ke cure of the old ruand, better kuown as * Riogsters,” fn mak- ng up-the committees. If the programme is carrled out, and it Is likely to be if Ayars sud Tavor do nut desert the” ulllance, the future prouises very litle botter than the past i the management of county alalrs. If they hang togetber ou the stare, and becowe tho tools uf the * Ring," nothing else can be expeeted of them thercafter, and the old crowd will have the legal xkili to plan outrages on the public purse, and toe necessary elzhit votes tocarryany nlwuwllm{' tmav determine on, to the vxteut ol Bl the several eounty mstitutions with their uld-tiwe * [avorites,' and 1o the allowing of “extras” to the clated contractors at the discretion, - 1L, 0.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS, The tirst unnual report of the Department of Public Wurks has just heen Issucd, and makes a bulky volume fur sn un- bound une, having 235 pages and many illustra- tfons, plats, plans, ete., not paged. Its ureful- nezs Is shightly damaoged by the fact that it Is ten months and twenty days overdue; that Is, that it covers ouly the year 1878, and yct s is- sned just on the cdge of 1878, Its value as a Distorfcal document s, of course, enhanced by this, which has given time for careful prepara- tlon.

Very little now remains in Field & Leiter's former store at the corner of Washington and State strects beyond charred timbers, twisted fron, and what is Jeft of the fixtures. Every artivle on the several Jocrs and all in the base- ment except what is beneath the rubbish in the centre has bheen removed, Only furty laborers were at work in the ruins yesterday, tho others having been discharged Monday evening. By noun to-day there will be nothing for them to do, so for as getting out the stock is concerned. But as it 1 the intention of the Singer Sewing- Machine Company to put the structure in repair tncdiately, gangs of men will be employed there for sometime in the fubire. At the Exposition Duiliding thework of trans- formation Into store goes on viguronsly, and the north balf I8 {ar advanced towards comple- tion, Carpenters were busy all Monday nizht, ami an increased foree was eet to work yester- day morning on the vounters, ect., in order to hava them ready for goods ot the stivulated time. ‘The firm “are still confldent thut they will be preparced for customers Monday morn- Ing. Bearcely anything bas hecn done in the south half yet bevond tearing down some of the Ineignificant booths, TLe taore substautial ones win not be disturbed, but will be used as show- cases. This portion of the bullding is full of wowds taken from the ruins, and clerks are bus assorting them, {n order to tind vut the quanti- ty and condition, for the Informatfon of the underwriters. As yet no estimate has been mude as to the amount of salvage, and an insur- auce agent told n TRIBUNE reporter vesterdny that. none vonld be given until Thursday at Teast, since 8 comparison with the invoices was eascntial, and this involved muct flzuring.

Tu shiow the decrease it interchauge of opinfon nothing was dont. From what can be Jearned it scems that Messrs. Ficld and Leiter place tha value of the stock they had on handat the timeof the fire as hizh as 81,250,000 If this Ia so, the Insurance companles will have to fork uver the full amount, and &M the work they have done so far has been for naught, ‘The total insurance amounts to about (0,000, and the bighest caleulations of the Aaill\'lnzu will not make up the vther quarterofa milkton, ‘Tho Package Committee also held a confer- ence with Muesrs.
