\; THE POSTMASTERSHIP. “The Inside Workings of the New York Office— Interviews of the Ingoing and Outgoing Post- masters—Interesting Points About the Con- duct of the Big Machine—The Improve- ments To Be Introduced—A Confer- ence Between Postmaster Jones and Mr. James Yesterday— The Conclusions Arrived ‘ At—Sinecures and Po- litical Influence. Postmaster Patrick H. Jones yesterday had an Anterview with Mr. Thomas L. James, On the 1st -of April next General Jones goes ont and Mr. James comesin. The former has held the office for four years, and in the time has found out that the position is not so nice 4 thing as it 1s gener- ally supposed to be. The motives were fully de- tailed in the HERALD last Monday. They do not partake of a political character, as General Jones is im full accord with the administration, and is governed in his conduct entirely by private reasons. Mr. James, the ingoing Postmaster, is a gentle- ‘man who has been in the Custom House for many years and has a full knowledze of public duties, Tne two gentlemen, who are in entire harmony together, met yesterday to discuss matters. con- nected with the Post Ofice, and the statements made were of a very interesting character. A HERALD reporter was present at the conference be- tween them, General Jones began by saying that the New York Post Office, as at present constituted, was tertainly deficient in the accommodations needed to do fts large business properly. The accommo- dations were now just what they were years and years ago, and yet within that time the business. had doubled more than ouce. It was calculated and found true by statistics that the business of the ofice doubied every eight years—that is, within the time he had been in the office only it had become half as large again as it was. Todo the ‘work needed there were certainly clerks enough. But these clerks had not roem enough te do their work properly. They were crowded together and Almost elbowed each other out of their places, the room was 80 wanting there to do their work expeditiously. What, above all IS URGENTLY NEEDED are carricrs—men outside to deliver letters prop- erly and promptly. At present he had 900 men under him—that is, 319 carriers and the remainder ‘ks. A good many of the latter were at the various stations spread through the city, The 319 carriers were not enough, At least 100 more ‘were needed immediately to do the business , etectually. Indeed, the public was very indulgent to the many shortcomings of the Post OMice, for they really had reason to complain of many things, At this point Mr, James asked how the London Post Office was carried on. General Jones said that the London Post OMice had three men to our one, and that therefore Lon- don held fully three times our population. This ‘matter must not be considered by population, but by space. New York carriers had more ground to go over @ great deal than the London carriers, and this is what made the disparity. THE MANAGEMENT AS IT 18, REPORTER—WiIl the increase, if it is made, give 08 mere deliveries? General Jones replied that at present there were eight deliveries made daily down town—that is be- tow Canal street, and five daily uptown. That the increase, besides giving greater promptitude, would cause one delivery more each day. The pay of the carriers, he went on to say, came from the appropriation given by Congress to the Postmaster General, and that the consent of the Postmaster General would have to be taimed to get this imcrease in the force.” There might robably be no difficulty in gettin, it if she appropriation were large enough. ut the main trouble was that a lot o! little country towns were allowed to have carriers which really did not ‘eed them, and in this way the big cities were de- rived of them. The salaries of carriers in New ‘ork was $800 a year and of the clerks never more than $900 and $1,000, and this was not much for men Who worked trom seven in the morning to five and six at night. Mr. JaMEs—Can you get good men at such sala- ties as these? That is why a General JonEs—I don’t think so. great many men just pass through here and go elsewhere directly they can better themselves, This isthe trouble ef baying such smail salaries. The men are ali examined by the surgeon ef the office amd proved to be able-bodied men before their applications can be considered. Then there {s a sort o/ @ civil service exumivation which they have to go through. 1 have now in my desk there abeut a hundred applications from various people ) Who have passed through these ordeals. POLITICAL IN¥LUENCE IN TUK POST OFFICE. ReprorTeR—Are these appointments entirely governed by political considerations? ; General Jones—I have my theory about this. I think that after these men have been throagh all the examinations, both physical aud mental, all Other things being equal,a man should app another o! his own political faith in preference to one who is not. Ido not believe in appointing a republican without brains in preference to a demo- crat with brains; but I mean, in case beth are equally good, I should andoubtedly prefer the re- peer and you will, perhaps, agree with me hat the republican party has as much brains as the democratic. RgerorTer—Do any democrats apply for pesitions? General Jonzs—I have not known a single ene to apply to me of the democratic persuasion. If they did I should of course consider their applica- tions and (with a smile) take the best men. There is one democrat in the building down stairs, He has been here some time. IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE, Mr. James asked whether there were any changes going on in the Post Office at present. “Yes, there is one,’’ said General Jones. ‘In re- gard to the outside mails arriving ip tue city, On the Eastern and Southern ratiroad routes we have clerks who go on the early morning trains, one at Philadelphia and the other at New Haven, and, comming in with the trains, they have all the letters assorted and arranged by the time they reach the city. This is @ great accommodation, because in cases where letters are destined tor ether parts of the country they are piaced in boxes and sent on to the other depots without passing through this effice at all. im the same way letters which are leant for the upper part of the city go direct and don’t pass here, But neither the Northern nor the Western routes nor the Ene nor the Hudson Kiver have got these postal cars, and justi now we are Hegotiating with Vanderbilt and Tom Scott for arrangements of the kind, I don’t mean to say that these roads don’t afford any accommodauon, but they don’t have the postaicars on the very trains on which we need them—the fast morning trains, But this will be soon arranged, no doub' and it will be a great accommodation and will allow of letters to the city being deiivered much earlier than they would otherwise be.” THE DEVALCATIONS AND EMBEZZLEMENTS. The conversation here turned on delalcations and embezzlements which have been made in the Post Office. General Jones said that it was almost Ampossibie for a Postmaster to guard against these, In the vase of Nerton, Mr. Kelly, the lormer Post- master, and himself were both liable, himself to the extent of $30,000, The Knapp atfair would probably be arranged all right, and would bring no troubie, But the position of the Postmaster was very dangerous in this particular, and it was difficult to understand how thefts could be prevented, The new registration plan werked well. It was diMcuit to rob inside the Post Office. These affairs were generally done outside, before the letters reached the Post Office, Where carriers robbed meney from letters it was generally where they were ad- dressed to publishers of papers or to lottery deal- ers, Where the fair inferenee was that money w Anaide the letters. It was not by the feeling th: the carriers found that money was in the letters; but where registered letters were rebbed they could be traced irom hand to hand. It was not ‘very difficult to trace even ordinary letters, The Postmaster, te cover all cases of defaication, had to give bonds of hear and each superintendent -of a station was obliged to give the Postmaster bonds in $10,000, These statious worked very well, and would remain as they were after the new Post Office is in operation. “When will this be occupied?” asked the re- rter. eat about one year, I should judge,” said General Jones. “The very first thing which will be done ‘will be to get ready the new oillce where the news- paper malls are sorted, because these are the most bulky. These mails, after being sorted, will be sent by pneumatic tube from the office direct ‘to the various newspaper offices. This will save a great deal of trouble in one of the department Which must be attended to with the utmost de- spatch.” SINECURES. “Jt is popularly supposed,” said the reporter, “that there ure many sinecures {pn the Post Office.” “This is quite untrue, The men in the Post Ofice ‘work hard for their money,’ answered General Jones. “The work they have to do takes them Irom eight toeieven hours a day, and during this time it is incessant. In the entire vullding there is only one sinccurist, @ man over eighty-tiree years of age, Who came into the Post Ofice in this city 1m 1817 and has been here ever si He 18 now un able to come down to his duties; but I, for one, do not care to discharge him.” ‘The repgortexy asked Mr. James whether he con: : NEW YORK HERALD. FRIDAY, MARCH 21, -+> rpiplp PtP DN ie ‘waamree making many changes on his accession te the office. Mr. James said he coma not tell, as he would have to further consult with General Jones about it; but he would not do away with a por gs man who did his werk well, General Jones said that when he came in he had to make some changes, as at the time there had been the mixed administration of President Johnson, but that in many of the changes that were made he found that he had done the wrong thing and took the incum- bents back. There was some further conversation on the mat- ter of the office, notably about the boxes, which were voted a nuisance, as General Jones said this work could be much better done by carriers and with less embezzlement than characterized the present system. . Statements of Some of the Members of a Party Who Were Induced by False Representations to Go to Brazil. The “oft told tale” of the wrongs of immigrants, who come to this Western World in the hope of realizing their conception of the El Dorado, was re- peated at the Castle Garden yesterday afternoon by members of a party of Englishmen who had been inveigied into emigrating hither by the glow- ing tales of a land flowing with milk and honey. Their story, the gist of whichis printed below, is that of many others who never have an opportu- nity of exposing the frauds perpetrated upon them by unprincipled villains, whose consciences are not above any means of making money, no matter how villanous the plan, From afidavits in the possession of the Commis- sioners of Emigration it appears that some time in September, 1872, there were circulated in Liverpool and its suburbs circulars which purported to be issued by a Brazilian colonization soctety, stating that unprecedented inducements were offered by the company to those wishing to emigrate to South America, The inducements were these :—A free passage, seventy-five acres of land, a house and £2 a heail for all over ten years oi age. Having faith in these inducements, a party of 253 persons organized to start for Brazil. The first representation proved genuine, lor they were brought thither free of expense on the steamship John Elder, which teft Liverpool on the 29th of No- vember last and arrived in Rio Janeiro December 23. The deponents, Reuben Walker, Henry Pagh and James Millard, state that the fare on the way out was tolerably good, but also that they experi- enced the truth of the adage that “God sends us food and the devil cooks.” When they arrived in Rio they were sent on ariver boat 350 miles to a port called Caunene, in the province of St. Paulo. After arriving there they were left for a whole day Without food or water. The next day the whole party were lodged in a mud hut which was with- out a stick of furniture and all, men, women and children, had to huddle together on the floor. In this place they remained for twenty-iour days. On the twentieth day a delegation went up tothe colony, which was about fifteen miles off, and had a conversation with Mr. Mallow, the manager of the colony, who iniormed them that he did not want them and had no place for them, During allthis time tney had no cooking utensils, and their fare was very poor. On. the twenty-fourth day 185 were sent back to Rio and the rest to Mendez, a town about ninety-five miles distant. Of the 253 who left Liverpool thirty-two died, thirty-five came toNew York per stearhship Merrimac, which arrived yesterday, and the rest remained behind, Itis the opinion of those who have come here that those left behind are comsid- erabiy diminished in numbers, as many of them were ill when last seen. ‘Thomas Litham and Thomas Fell also make affidavits, in which they state that they were induced to go to Brazil bi similar inducements, none of which were fulfille —__++ +.
