Post Office Clerks Who Worked Over- Time Anxious to See Mr. Wanamaker. Postmaster General Wanamaker is still in Atlantic City and it is uncertain when be will return. The clerks in the office of the first as- sistant postmaster goneral are extromely anxious to have Mr. Wanamaker here again, This does not indicate especially that they feel lonely when he is out. of the city or find it difficult to discharge their duties in his absence. The real cause of thoir anxiety | for Mr. Wanamaker's presence in the city may be attributed to the fact that in tho general deficiency bill there was an appropriation of $12,766.80 to pay the clerks who worked extra time during the first year of the Cloveland administration. As they have charge of the pay the cases of fourth-class postmasters and as the pressure to make changes in these offices is very great it was necessary that the work should be done ing the clerks to work from 6 to 9:30 iu the evening for a portion of the time and for the rest of the period the clerks were required to begin a haut hour ae each day and to jongthen the regular by remaining at their desks until 5:30 p.m, THESE EXTRA HOURS CONTINUED through s period of about seven months in the Fear 1885, The appropriation provides for the Payment of extra compensation to the seventy- threo clerks entitled to iton the basis of 60 cents per hour, The female clerks did not put in as much extra time as the male clerks and the average extra pay to be re- ceived by them is $116, while the average CONQUERED THE SEA. Thrilling Story of Rescue of Ship- wrecked Sailors, COUNT PARIS AT GETTYSBURG Chicago Policemen Engage ina Religious Shooting Affray. DILLON AND O'BRIEN AT CHERBOURG. CONQUERED THE SEA Shipwrecked Sailors Rescued Off the Nova Scotian Coast. New Gtasoow, N.S, Oct 15.—A thrilling Story is that of the rescue of four mem who remained on the wreck of the bark Melmerby, which was stranded at Little Harbor while on ® Voyage from Quebec for Greenock, with lumber, and from which the captain, the the first and second officers and twelve men were drowned. All day Monday « crowd | stood on the beach watching the poor unforte- hates on the crumbling wreck, but the specta- tors were powerless to effect or even attempt a Toscue, 80 wild was the sea, and night settled down without any abatement of the terrific storm. Iwo men remained on the shore and | swung lanterns, to show the shipwrecked | men that they were not forgotten uu moruing dawned ‘luesday an immense concourse assembled, but it was noon before tt was considered at all possible to make ap attempt at a rescue. Then a boat was launched, manned by a volunteer crew consist- ing of a . Graham, David Frazer Will- iams, Dr, McLeon of Glasgow; James M. lashen of Beg Island and A. Dessoncensomens, ‘The brave fellows fought a terrible battle with the waves, but eventually reached the wreck, when « mighty cheer went up from the anxious watcbors on shore, One by one the exhausted and benumbed ship-wrecked men were lowered into the bost, and after a second | desperate battio with the waves wore conveyed safely to land. The work was facilitated by the liberal use of amount received by the male clerks is $206. The rolls have been made up in accordance with the provisions of the be making the appropriation, and all that is needed now is the signature of Mr. Wanamaker. This is the reason why his return is looked for with so much concern by the clerks in the first as- sistant’s office. If ho returns tomorrow, as there isa probability of his doing, the first matter presented to him will no doubt be the roll of clerks entitled to this compensation and then the money can be drawn from the ‘Treasury.
