Ja8-284 NEW FORM OF MONEY ORDER. It is Expeeted That {t Will Be Adopt- ed in a Few Days. It is expected withifi a few days the Post Office Departinent will adopt a new form of money order, which, while con- taining all of the essential features of the one now in use, will.bé much simpler and very much more accurate. Some time ago the post office officials re- ceived information that the decision in the case pending before the court of appeajein New York, in which tke question of in- fringement of a patent controlling the form of money order was at issue, would be ad- verse to the government. This information put the department immediately to work to get a bill through Congress giving them authority to change the form of money or- der. Recently, however, more direct infor- mation was received from New York as to the decision, and the bill in Congress was held up, Today Mr. Heath, first assistant post- master general, received a telegram an- nouncing the decision of the court, which affirmed the decision of the lower court and in effect gave the United States the right to use the money order. The new money order, which will likely be adopted, ol the coupon from the left to the right side of the order, thereby making mistakes less Iableto occur. —_——_-e+—____—_ “Want” ads. ip The Star pay because they tring answers. | Citizens ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS Trading Stamp Scheme a Subject of Mach Discussion. ATTITUDE OF DELEGATE BARLEY to File a Petition for Prohibitory Legislation. GENERAL AND PERSONAL > Evening Star Bureau, 529 King Street, 3 Bell Telephone 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., January 19, 1898. The “trading stamp scheme,” which was recently declared illegal by the courts of Washington, is now the subject of much discussion by the people of Virginia, and especially the people of Alexandria, where there is a trading stamp agency. There is now a bill before the Virginia legislature the provisions of which, if enacted, will make the trading stamp iilegal in this state. Mr. G. Wm. Ramsay, one of Alexan- dria’s most prominent merchants, has re- ceived a letter from Mr. George McD. Blake of Richmond, in which he states that Mr. L. C. Barley, the delegate from Alexandria, in a speech in the house of delegates, stated that an attorney had been sent to Alexandria for the purpose of securing signatures to break up the trading stamp scheme, and after scouring the city only secured forty-five signatures out of 400 merchants, and that he (Barley) believed that a majority of the merchants favored the amendment which compels the trading stamp people to furnish stamps to such merchants as desire them. Those who cre opposed to the trading stamp scheme generally, and they appear to be in a large majority, say that Mr. Barley is entirely mistaken in this state- ment, as by actual count there are not ail told more than two hundred licensed mer- chants in the city, and a majority of these have signed a petition to the legislature, urgeatly asking that the law abolishing trading stamp agencies be enacted. But few people to whom this petition has been presented have refused to sign it, and among the signers are many of the mer- chants who kave contracts with tne trading siamp compenies, but who say they have found out by experience that it does not pay. Tho petition, which has been signed by a large majority of the :nerchants, will be presented before the committee of “courts ard justice,” now pending, Friday committze composed of Me John EB. Tachett, John S. Chapman, H. J. W. Sum- mers and others, who will go to Richmond as representing the views of the merchants of Alexandria. It is said that committees from other cities who are opposed to the schem2 will appear before the committee at the same time, and it is confidently be- before whom the matter is morning next by @ 8. lieved that legislation will be secured which will break up the trading stamp scheme. ‘The signers to the p2tition represent all classes of business and the best and most prominent merchants of the city. Denounces the Scheme. ‘Tre reporter for The Star had a talic with Mr. M B. Harlow, a prominent bust- ness man and president of the Business Men's League, this morning, and Mr. Har- low denounced in most emphatic terms the trading stamp scheme. Mr. Harlow said: “I think I can speak as representing a majority of the business men of the city und say that the scheme can be of no benefit to merchant or buyer. If our mer- chants feel that they can give 5 per cent of their profits to purchasers, it should be given to them_direct, and not to a trading stamp company or any other agency. The trading stamp people are practically receiv- ing 5 per cent of the business of the city and in return are giving some trifle as a prize. I am opposed to the whole scheme on general principles, and, as I said before, I am of tke opinion that the business men of the city generally agree h me.” Mayer Simpson stated this morning that a number of those who had entered into contract with the Trading Stamp Company had been to see him about the best way in which to get out of the contracts, which, they said, they were heartily sick and tired of. The mayor said that, in his opinion, those contracts which were entered into before the Trading Stamp Company was licensed to sell stamps in Alexandria were invalid and void, and it is said that most ot the contracts were signed before the license was issued. Several parties talking to The Star re- porter this morning criticised Delegate Barley for the position he has assumed in the matter, which appears to be utterly at variance with the wishes of his constitu- ents. Police Court. In the police court this morning Mayor Simpson flisposed of the following cases: Daniel Nelson, charged with assaulting his mother, Georgianna Nelson, forfeited $2.50 collateral put up by his mother for his release. Jeane Cross, charged with dis- orderly conduct, was fined $2.50, and in lieu of payment he will serve ten days on the chain gang. There were seventeen lodgers at police headquarters last night. Accidentally Shot. While two little children of Mr. August Oehlert, the cigar maker, were playing with a toy gun this morning the elder one, aged five years, shot the younger, aged three years, in the lower lip, inflicting @ painful wound. Dr. T. M. Jones was called in and dressed the injury, which is not of a very serious nature. Gen, Lee’s Birthday. The anniversary of the birth of General Robert E.

The entire time of the executive session yesterday afternoon was occupied by Sen- ator Morgan in the presentation of his views on the subject of the annexation of the Hawatian Isiands. This was the sec- ond installment of the senator's speech, and when he concluced, a few ‘minutes aiter 5 o'clock, he had not then reached the end. He spoke for about three hours, and his speech was a general presenta- tion of the importance of the islands to the United States. He dwelt especially upon the military importance of the islands, qvoting Gen. Schofield and Capt. Mahan at length in support of his posi- tion that the islands were a natural out- Post for the United States and necessary to the proper protection of our western coast and of general commerce in case of war. Mr. Morgan predicted that if the United States did not take advantage of the pres- ent opportunity to acquire the islands there would be war between this country and some other power within ten weeks. It was not, he said, within the bounds of pos- sibilities, in view of the present European competition for territory in Asia, that the Hawaiian Islands should be allowed to remain independent for any length of time after the United States should finally an- nounce their determination not to make them a part of American territory. “Does the senator from Alabama mean to say.” interrupted Senator Pettigrew, “that the Hawaiian government would vol- untarily seek the protection of some other Power and thus forego the great advan- tage those islands now enjoy in their re- ciprocity arrangement with the United States, which results in our remitting to them annualiy not less than $6,000,0007" To this question Senator Morgan replied that the reciprocity treaty had been ne- gotiated for the purpose of giving this country cheap sugar. He said that it had been of greater benefit to the United States than it had been to Hawaii, because it hud accomplished its purpose of making cheaper one of our great commodities and one of the necessities of every household We want, he said, not only the sugar from Hawali, but cheaper coffee as well, ond that and many other necessary articles” could be grown in those islands. The senator displayed a number of large maps, from which he contended that the islands were in the very roadway of com- merce between our western coast and the orient, and said that all ships, whether laden with the articles of commerce or the munitions of war, must necessarily Pass them in going to and fro between this country and the Asiatic coast, and thus, he said, the nation which controls Hawaii will control the commerce of the east. In closing, he said that failure to annex the islands meant inevitable blood- shed, and the responsibility for that blood- shed would rest upon the Senate of the United States for its failure to perform its duty at this critical hour in the his- tory of the two countrie — CHINA TO GIVE INDE NITY. Kino Chau Bay is to Be Held by the Germans.
