The Postoffi | Their Mont The alleged work of retrenchment and orm which was inaugurated some time ago by the postoflice department has «l in rathe severe manner with the employes of the postotlice here. When first Mr, Coutant remonstrated with the result short time afterward, he was enabled to take a man of the v ¢ sery nd put him in the off addition increased the force but slightiy, while ne time the changes made in the reduce the expenses of the off the most insignificant manner. Mr. Coutant remonstrated a second time, and Mondav it was thought that his argument had been con clusive. But that hope was dispelled when the checks of the employes were passed around mm payment for the month’s work. Last month with this hope entertained, Mr. Coutant paid the employes at the old rate, hoping that before the pay d the month just ended the matter would be so adjusted as to continue the wages at the ol rate. Butthat thought has now bee bandoned, and the only recourse is tn muke nother attempt to have the alaries of the several employes re-adjusted, It is thought the attempt will at least be made, though it is doubtful t it will be found success- ful. This reduction has taken off $i0) year from the salary of Chief Clerk Pic ens, $200 from the assistant postmast James Woadward, $100 trom James Me- Mahon, the forwarding clerk, and § from each of Clerks Wright, White and Southard. These 1 ons have been attended by an inc in the wages of some others, and the grand change ef- shows wing of about $12 a r §1 It is needless to few of the men in the oflice te the peeuliar method of reform ts them so heavily.
