There was no specific requirement as to speed, and hence the grounds that applied In the case of the Dolphin do uotexist inthe case of the cruisers. There is no suggestion or intimation reflecting on the character ofthe work. The duty of the board Is to examine the work and maierials on the three ships, and “uscertain and declare the fair market value thereof, including 4# reasonable and customary margin of profit on 80 inuch of the work as sliall huve been satis- factorily periormed.” ‘The market value of the vessels is not to be interpreted as the value of Junk, but the workand material are to_be ‘treated as parts of completed ships. The followingmethod is suggested for appraising the value in one ship atleust; assuming the value of the completed ship to be the contract price, by ascertaining the amount of expendi jure ‘necessary for thelr completion up to the requirements of the coutract, would leave the value ofthe work performed. ‘This arrange- ment, the Secretary says, was arrived at after consultation with the contractor's counsel.

The examination will be similar to the one recently held, the uestions being devised with a view of testing e applicants’ knowledge of streets and loca- tions in the clty. The messengers, when ap- uted, are required to furnish each a bond of ‘The law prescribes that no messengers Shall recelve more than $30a month, Whether the messengers will be enabled to carn that much depends upon the extent towhich the service 1s patronized by the public. “There is one thing which ought to be im- yresked upon the public mind,” said Postmaster Songer to-day, “and that is’ that the ten cent delivery stamp does not pay the postage of a letter. “A letter dropped Into a letter box with only & ten cent delivery stainp must be treated at this office as @ letter upon which no postage has been paid. Persons mailing letters tor special delivery must he sure to affix a regular two cent stamp in addition to the special de- livery stamp.

One point u there has been a confasion of ideas, is as to whether the messengers should be employed on Sundays. It is thought the service would be especially usetul Sundays, as on that day the regular eurrler delivery service in most cities is either cut off altogether or reduced. The Post- master General has, however, decided to order the special service for Sunday. A circular con- taining this order, and other instructions to postmiistors respecting this service, was bein Prepared at the Post Office department to-da: ‘As the law directs that the service shall con tinue through 17 hours of each day—trom 7 am. to 12 midnight-the messenger boys at the city post office will be divided into sections, one working during the first half of the 17 hours and the other during the latter half The assignments will be made to each messenge the postmaster says, In such manner as to make their compensation at the end of the month as nearly equal as possibl ere Ca The Women’s Christian Temperance Union.
