NAVAL CADETS DEFEATED AT FOOTBALL.— ‘The naval cadets received a severe drubbing at football Saturday afternoon. A dispatch from Annapolis says: There is a venerable institu- tion called St. John’s college, hardly known outside of Marylund, in spite of 1t being the alma mater of William Pininey, Francis Scott Key and Reverdy Johnson. ‘The college boys went down to the naval academy, and “took the jackets off” the young sea dogs. ‘The col- lege boys made ten points to nothing for their adversaries. This deteat the cudets received with ill-concealed disgust, for they have here- tofore beaten all the Maryland teams, A CIVIL SERVICE QUESTION.—An interesting civil service question has arisen out of the re- centcustom house examination in Baltimore and has been referred to the civil service com- mission. At the examination one man passed for storekeeper, and as he was the only one who applied for und passed for that particular posi- lon, he is the only eligible one tor that place. ‘The examination which he.took was the same as that taken by the candidates for clerkships. When the collector asked tor a certification of names for @ sturekecper’s position a few days age it was found that there was but this one name to certify to, and the question arose as to whether the civil service board should not cor plete the list of four names that the law requires Yo be certified to by taking three names from the list of clerks. “Another question will prob- ably grow out of the maiter, aud thatis whether il the clerk eligibles are certified to with the storekeeper eligible the latter should take bis place according to his averag.

About noon they drove out to “Oak View,” where they dined and spent the afternoon with Mrs, Folsom, returning to the ‘White Honse about dark. Tue Case oF EX-BANKER FisH.—No action has yet been taken in regard to the pardon of ex-Banker Fish, and the Attorney General will not even consider the matter until all the apers bearing on the case have been received from the district attorney at New York, It 18 thought likely that an order will be sent from here to the superintendent of the Auburn peni- tentiary directing him tomake an examination of Fish and sorward it to the department here. 11 Mr. Fish is to be berated on the ground of {Il health, the pardon will be based upon the prison surgeon’s report, ard not upon that made by Fish’s family poysician. OUR CRIPPLED NAVY. Annual Report of Naval Constructor Wilson. CONDITION OF THE VESSELS, KEW AND OLD, SERVICEABLE AND UNSERVICEABLE—RECOM- MENDATIONS, ‘The annual report ot Naval Constructor T. D. Wilson, chief of the bureau of construction and Tepairs, shows that the steel cruisers Atiantic and Boston, at the navy yard, Brooklyn, N. ¥., have both been docked and their bottoms cleaned and painted, and, independent of the work whieh has been done by the government to fit tuem for sea, alterations and additions have been and are being made to them ascailed for from time to time by the advisory board. ‘The Chicago is still at Chester and the work on her is now being pushed rapidly toward com- pletion. The chief constructor says the appro- priation of $95,861 under the act of July 26, 1886, will not be sufficient to complete the work on these vessels, and in order that no de- lay in its prosecution may be occasioned by lack of funds, he has asked tor an additional appropriation of $56,000, which, it is expected, Will complete the vessels, provided no further alteration nor extra work involving any con slueravle expenditure of money and time are recommended by the advisory board. NOT FIT FOR ACTIVE SERVICE. The Lackawanna, now at the Mare Island navy yard, Cal, while not yet condemned, cannot be repaired for active service, and it is suggested that she be converted into a recelv- ing ship to replace the old line-o-battle ship Independence, which is now unfit for farther use as a receiving ship. The chief constructor says tbat the ‘Tennessee, the only first-rate wooden vessel in active service, can be kept In service but a few mouths longer, and she ls un- doubtedly in very bad condition. Her main wale-strakes are So budly decayed as to preclude their being recalked, and ber lower mast— heads are “so badly ‘decayed that it is not considered prudent to carry # press of sall upon them. The Shenandoah also has been surveyed and found to be beyond repair. THE NUMBER OF SERVICEABLE VESSELS in the navy has thus been reduced to two first- rate, ten second-rate, twenty third-rate and seven fourth-rate vessels, the latter class in- cluding two targetrams. The Kranklin, Wabash, Minnesota aud New York—all first rate vessels—are set down as requiring exten- sive repairs, and thirteen fron-cluds require more or less repair. In addition to these ves sels, the naval list comprises thirteen tugs and tweive wooden saillug vessels, used for receiv- ing and training ships. THE NEW VESSELS completed, building or authorized to be built are summed up as foliows: One, the Dolphin, complete; two, the Boston and Atlanta, arma- ment incomplete; five, the Chicago and the mouitors, incomplete; five, the Baltimore, Charleston and Newark and two gunboats, under advertisement; four, an armored cruiser, 4 battle ship, a pneumatic dynamite boat and & torpedo buat, not yet designed, ‘fo the above list of fron and steel vessels can be added the Alert and the Ranger, tour guns each; the Mo- nocacy, paddle-wheel gunboat, six gui gan, paddie-wheel gunboat, four guns; Alarin, ‘One’ gun; Intrepid (yet tobe completed), gun? boat, two 13-inch guns, MONITORS AND SECOND-RATE VESSELS, The chief cdnstructor says that the thirteen river and harbor monitors could not be made ready for service for an expenditure of 200,000, The Saugus, belonging to this class Stvetselss now laid Sp he the Wemhingios navy yard, has been condemned as unfit for service. “Of the second-rate vessels,” continues. the ehiefconstructor, tie “Trentou,Omabaand Van- daiia can probably be coutinued in service ten years longer, the Lancaster and Brooklyn, six Years; the Hartiord, Richmond and Pensacola, ive years. Of the third rates, the Mohican can be continued in the service for ton years; the Adams, Alliance, Essex, Enterprise, Talla- Fernie Se Rea ees jan s ui Swat alena, Murion, Kearsarge and Iroquois, five yours jonger. Ylans aud specifications have been completed for two composite-built tine-modeled vessels to be used as training ships, and they could be commenced at once if an’ appropriation were made for then, RECOMMENDATIONS, ‘The chiet constructor recommends that in the event of any one of the large vessels pro- vided for at the last session of Congress being built ata navy yard, it should be built at the NEW FENDERS 0029 <<: - Gas FIXTURES, NEW GOODS.

In accordance with the President's order the executive-departments were all closed to-day. Emblems of mourning were profusely exhibited ‘on all the public buildings, and on hotels. and other buildings of a seimi-public character, flags were displayed at _half-mast as a token o respect for the memory of the dead ex-Presi- dent. A salute of thirteen guns was-fired at the navy yard at daybreak anda solitary cannon booined at intervals of half an hour throughout the day. Atthe navy yard and arsenal. bar- racks the men were paraded and the Presiden- tial proclamation read to them, after which they were excused from active duty for the re- mainder of the day. IN THE DISTRICT COURTS TO-DAY. Inthe Courtin General Term this morning Col. Enoch Totten announced the death of ex- President Arthur in feeling terms, and moved that the courtadjourn in respect tohis memory, ‘The chiet justice directed an adjournment. In the Cireuit Court ex-Senator Boutweil an- nounced the death of the ex-President, and stating that it would seem proper for the courts of the United States, and especially in this Dis- trict, to adjourn, he made that motion, He said that’ President’ Arthur was called on to ad- minister the office ut_a very critical period in our history, and its duties Tequired great wis- dom, ‘That wisdom he exhibited to. tt Batistaction of the people of the counts without distinction of party, The court was then adjourned. In the Criminal Court the district attorne; made the announcement and moved an ad- journment. Judge MacArthursaid an adjourn- ment, wouid be in accord with his feelings, not only because President Arthur, as a citizen, 0c cupled a great office, but because of the personal Fespect and Juterest he had for the man, He had known President Arthur for forty years, for a considerable part of which time he had been on terms of intimacy with him. He was one of the finest specimens of manhood he had everseen; elegantin his deportment, extremely courteons and kind, und the most modest man he had ever known in his sphere of life. He had occupied one or two conspicuous positions when one of the great political parties noml- nated him for the office of Vice President, aid from that office he was called to exercise the functions of Chie Executive. The cireuin- ‘stances were well known, and it had been traly sald that “no one ever’ assumed the duties under more embarrassing circumstances”—a President suddenly assassinated. He was still further embarrassed by the reffections and criticisms which exceeded the bounds of fair political criticism, ‘The eyes of friend and foe Were upon iim, ahd the attention of the world was called to the extraordinary eondition and embarrassed position in which the President was placed: They know of his integrity and the modesiy with which he conducted vimselt in this trying ordeal. ‘The event would have in many countries caused a revolution, but this government moved on without interruption. ‘The people appreciated the tact that the reins of government were in the hands of a fair and citizen, and gave him thelr confidence, which he maintained, Mr. Ar- thur never. essuyed to. : ot. 4 great tan, but history will aecord to hima high place for his fidelity to duty and a favor- uble Comparison with his great predecessors, It was.a remarkable fuct that from Washing ton down ail our Presidents have been good, putriotlc men, and have left such records that posterity will always respect them, aud Presi- dent Arthur among these will hold’a conspicu- ous place. The country and its institutions honor themselves in 10st emphatically pay- ing a tribute ot respect to the late President. He directed the motion to be entered, and the court adjourned. ‘The Equity Court convened, but Judge James directed its adjournment in respect to the mem- ory of the ex-President, qiAt2oon all the offlees at the court house were \used. ‘The government departments, the District offices and the public schools were closed to- day in respect to the memory of the late ex- President Arthur. So the clerks and school children enjoyed a holiday. Private business houses were not closea and. there was no sus- Pension of business in the elty. Flags on the public buildings were suspended at haltmast and this morning dirges were, played on the Metropolitan chimes by Prof. Widdows, IN THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY. ‘The death of ex-President Arthur was appro- Priately reterred to yesterday at St. John’s ehureh by the rector, Rev. Dr. Leonard. Gen. Arthur attended that church while a resident of this city and the rector,utterspeaking briefly of bis life and death, spoke of lis personal re- lations with the chureh, and also relerred to the fact tuat irom this ‘congregation he bad chosen his wife, to whom he was married by its Pastor, Rev. Smith Pyle. His daughter also just Easter was confirmed there by Bishop Paret. Dr. Leonard leit the city last evening tor New York city to take part in the funeral ‘The sermon oi Rev. John B.

In nearly all the churches in the city refer- ence was made to the departed ex-President, either in the sermon or in the prayer.

CAN POSTAL SYSTEM AS COMPARED WITH OTHER COUNTRIES— OVERPAID RAILROADS, 4@C.—THE WASHINUTON CITY POST OFFICE. ‘The Postmaster General, Wm. F. Vilas, in bis annual report,states that the International bu- Teau of the universal postal union has recently collected and published statistics of postal ad- ministration by most of the civilized countries of the earth, which disclose the interesting fact that In immensity and extent of means, of ex- penditures, of performances and results, the postal machinery ofthe United States exceeds— in some points far exceeds—that of any other nation oh the globe. The entire length of all railways employed by the United States nearly equals the combined extent of those of all other countries of the world, while the other post- routes more than quadruple the total of any single people besides; and, by the latest reports received, the mileage last year of our mail transportation exceeded by more than 125,- 000,000 miles the service rendered to any government. Of post offices no other nation hus One-third our number; a marked feature of advant twour people and of liberality in policy. 'e expend annually more money than any other to maintain pos! facilities, and, if the postal telegraph service be excluded from the reckoning, we derive a greater revenue. At the same time, no service is maintained at more economy of expenditure for results. ALLEGED FRAUDS BY POSTMASTERS, The changes of postmasters during the eighteen months past, the report says, have contributed to disclose the fact that many vio- lations of the law have been practiced, and illegally excessive compensation has too often been retained. As the quarterly returns of the newly appointed officers were received from time to time, the cancellations claimed by them were perceived in many instances to be signifi- cantly less than those returned by their prede- cessors; upon which examinations by inspec- tors were ordered, resulting often in evidence that the returos of the former incumbents had exaggerated Lhe amounts cancelled, sometimes grossly and fraudulently. . Where the facts have required it, commissions have been with- held and compensation fixed at a reasonable figure. The namber of such orders within the jast fiscal year and thenceforward to the 10th of October was 172, and the aggregate difter- ence between commissions claimed and com- ‘and that the usual allowances be granted, THE WASHINGTON POST OFFICE, of November, 1884.

Three or four hun- dred cases are undergoing investigation, and others will doubtless be found peguiring: it, as the examination of returns by the auditor's Office, necessurily @ protracted labor, discloses ind! ions of probable irregularities. The a2 cumulating evidences leave little reason to doubt that the practice of making false returns has been pursued by some postmusters almost since the enactment of the statute of 1878; that it has been a growing and spreading fault, em- bracing larger numbers as years have passed, inducing the fraudulent sale of pn twogive a specious cover by larger reported sales to the falsely reported cancelatious, and causing cone siderabie annual loss to the department. It is suggested that the present limitation of three montus for presentation by postmusters of claims for losses resulting from burglary, fire or other unavoidable casualty works oc: casional injustice; and although but a short period should be afforded, ti is believed six months would be more consonant with justice. THE FREE DELIVERY SERVICE by carriers was, during the last year, extended to three cities—Aurora, IL, Duluth, Minn., and Newport, Ky.,—making on the 30th of June, 1886, 181 tree delivery offices in all. The limits imposed by law on the discretion of the department in extending the system have nearly been reached, aud unless they be ex- panded the additions of other communities to the enjoyment of the privileges of the system Will be tew, as, from yeur to-year, they grad ‘alty-attain to the population or volume of bust- now required, ‘he recommendation in the last annual re- port for the extension of the discretionary limi- lations of this service to places of 10,000 in- habitants or $10,000 ot gross annual revenue is renewed. The opinion expressed in the last report that a separate grade of collection car- riers should be establisied, ior use in the larger cities, at lower rates of annual pay than are given the delivery carriers, has ripened to a conviction that efficiency and economy would both be promoted by the measure. ‘The money-order system has been during the past year extended to 311 additional Gy oltices, while but 10 were dropped from the list. It 1s a gratifying proof ot the efficiency which characterizes the management ol this Business that but 52 money orders, or in the ratio of 1 to 162,618, were reported ‘during the last year as erroneously paid; and of these a part proved. on examination to have been properly paid. THE 6PECIAL DELIVERY SERVICE instituted under authority of the act of March 8, 1885, was put in operation on the 1st day of October, last year. The act limited the service to tree-delivery offices and such others as served places with a population of 4,000 or more; and. its privileges were thus operative at but 535 Post offices. ‘The present Congress, by the uct Of August 4tp, gave power to make the stainp available atany office and upon any article of muilable matter, ‘The enlarged system was put iu operation on the Ist ot October. ‘fhe stiort period since passed allows but general informa- Uon Of the results.

The report, ufler referring to the savi: effected Ly discontinuing payments to railroud companies for the use ol apartments less than Jorty feet in length, and in other than railway: postal cars, and the reduction of twenty per cent from the compensation of land grant reads, suys: The conviction will force itselt upon ‘the mind of every caretul inquirer it may be safely affirmed, that the present method of measuring the compeusation Ww railroads for mull transportation is clumsy, unequal in effects, difficult of satisiactory adjustment, and by no means fixed upon a true basis. The sub- | in, Ject deserves early consideration, The reduction in tne annual cost of the star ruute transportation, effected by orders be- tween July 1st, 1585, and June 3ULb, 1856, was $301,479, and contacts were made during the year for tour years, beginning July 1st, 1886, an the fourth contract section, by-which’ an an- nual saving of $238,175.10 wus accomplished. REFERRING TO THE REPORT of the general superintendent of the railway mail service the report says that at the close of the fiscal year there was an increase of thirteen in the lines of railway post offices and an increase of one hundred and eighty-four im the number of clerks. ‘The ‘casualties toclerks have been as numerous as in other years, seriously injuring nfty~six and ‘lightly injuring sixty other, but fortun- ately causing fo deaths. ‘I’ cannot this point without recalling the discussion. in ‘the last report, in which the duty of some pro- HK.
