A delegation of reprosentative New York business men arrived in Washington this morn- ing to bring to the attention of Congress the needs of the great cities of the United States and of New York in particular for better and more speedy methoils of transferring the enor- mous mas: of mail matter to and fro between central post offices and remote substations, The delegation was regeived by Senator His cock and Representative Raines and escorted to the Capitol, where it was received by the Senate committee on post offices. There were present President Evan Thomas of _ the produce exchange, President William Wills of the mercantile exchange, John V Wormer, secretary of the Union League Chab: Patrick Farrell, president of the Ameri- can News Company; J. F. Graham, editor of the New York Commercial Adcertiser; Engineer Franklin L. Polk, E. D. Neustadt of the pro- duce exchange, Wm. 1. Martin of the board of trade, J. H. Snider, Wm, Duckett, A. G. Faye, J.J. Walton and Dr. J. J. Perry. ‘The Senate committee had before it the bill introduced by Senator Hiscock, which pro- Poses an appropriation of $1,000,000, to be ex- peeded by (a commission appointed by the ‘ostinaster General in increaring by pneumatic tube or electric device postal facilities and expediting the distribution, collection and de- livery of mails in cities having # population of 150.000 or more. Mr. Graham, President Thomas of the pro- duce exchange, John Van Wormer, Franklin T. Polk and others spoke. WHAT IT 18 PROPORED TO Do. In answer to a question by Senator Colquitt ‘Mr. Van Wormer said it was designed to con- nect Jersey City, Brooklyn, Hoboken and the twenty sub stations with w York post office. He spoke of the successful operation of the pneumatic tube system employed by the Western Union Telegraph Company to connect its New York offices. Mr. Polk, an engineer, spoke of the mechan- ical devices necessary to facilitate city mail distribution. He proposed, for the postal service, tubes one foot in diameter, with car- riers five or six feet long, holding about 10,000 letters, He had seen such a carrier as he described propelled by electricity at the rate of fifty-rix miles an hour at a cost of 10 cents per ton per mile. The carrier would reach the Grand Central station from the New York post office in four minutes. dhe present cost of mail transfer was about 10 cents per ton per mile. His estimate of the cost of # tube was about $20,000 per mile. ‘The electric system would cost more to con- struct; the pneumatic eystem more to operate. That estimate contemplated tube supported on posts. Possibly the property owners might object to that. ‘To cerry it on the elevated railroad structures would reduce the cost of construction one-half. Senator Hiscock suggested that the deloga- tion present to the committeea detailed echeme of the plan of transmission with estimate of cost. Senator McMillan thonght that it might be well to reduce the appropriation from #1,000,- 000 to $100,000 and with that sum build one line from the New York post office to the Grand Central station, He ——— his democratic rethren woul unw: to appropriate $1,000,000 outright. ae Aiter some discussion the delegation agreed to prepare a plan showing the details of the proposed system and the committee adjourned. — ests NEGOTIATIONS AT AN END. The Canadian Reciprocity Commissioners to Leave Washington Today. The Canadian reciprocity negotiations came toanend today. There wae a session of about two hours and a balf at the State Department, attended by Secretary Blaine and Gen. Foster on the side of the United States and Sir Julian Pauncofoteand the Canadian commissioners on behalf of the applicants for reciprocal trade relations, At the end of the meeting it was announced that the negotiations were concluded and that the visitors would leave for Canada tonight.
