MORE NONEY FOR POSTOFFICE Pm-..n- General Payne Asks for Larger Approptiation Than Last Year. Sy : DELIVERY SYSTEMS REQUIRE MORE CASH [Hvery Brameh of Service Will Be Given Increase In Request of De WABHINGTON, Nov. 3—Postmaster Gen- eral Payne in his estimates forwarded to the treasury for transmission to congress for ‘appropriations needed during the fscal * ehding June %, 1906, calls for an ag- grégate of $168,085,770 for the postal ser- vick. The deficit for year ending June %, 1005, is estimated at $3,613,708. The appro- priation for the year ending June 30, 1904, wds $153,611,680, and the estimated revenues for that year are $146,304,643. The estimated revenue for 1905 Is -$154,950,066. The total increase on account of city defivery service ‘s 31,671,760 and rural free delivery Increase is $3,163,700. No estimate is made for the special fast mail facil- itles, for which the last appropriation was $167,762. An estimate of $800,000 is made for pneumatic tuba service. The heaviest jtem 18 $39,698,00 to railroads for transportation of malls, an increase of $1,455,000. Other im- portant items include star route. service, $8,100,000, increase $1,140,000; compensation of rs, $24,000,000, Increase $2,260,000; pay of letter carriers, $0,731,20, increase $1,602,460; pay of letter carriers and clerks, in charge of rural stations, $15,000,000, in- crease $3,000,000. Report of Navy. Rear Admiral Endicott, chlef of the bureau of yards and docks, in his annual report to the secretary of the navy says several of the yards, especially those at New York, are becoming congested, owing to their limited area and that, unless somo action s taken looking to their ef- ficlency they will become restricted. The estimates for the coming fiseal year, it is explained, provide for continuing the work on dry docks at Charleston, New York and Norfolk, and the steel floating dock at Cavite, P. I, and that,, with the exception of the estimate of the improve- ment of the water front at the New York yards, $1,600,000, these are among the lai gest items for which estimates are sub- mitte. Attention is called to the need of more extensive accommodations for the ; [berthing and storage of torpedo boats and it Is suggested that the construction of & small dry dock at Norfolk and other yards for-the docking of the large num- ber of small boats of the navy would be an economical provision. Many works of improvement are necessary at the Charles- ton yard if it is to be developed into a station of moderate efficlency, says the report; also at New Oriekns. Monthly Debt Statemen: The monthly statement of the public debt shows that at the close of business October 31, 138, the total debt, less cash in the treasury, amounted to $320,402,501, which is an increase for the month of $2,49,966. The debt s recapitulated as fol- lows: Interest-bearing debt, - $906,377,000; debt on which interest has ceased since maturity, $1,196,90; debt bearing no in- terest, $392,565,913; total, $1,209,039,993. This amount, however, does not include $919,843, 869 in certificates and treasury notes out- standing, which are offset by an equal amount of cash on hand for their redemp- tion. The cash in the treasury s classified as foliows: Gold reserve, $150,000,000;- trust tunds, $919,843,869; general fund, 149,222,91; in national bank depositories, $167,420,841; In Fhilippine islands to credit of United States disbursing officers, #4,670,205; total, §1,39%,070, - 907, against which ‘there are demand Ma- bilities outstanding amounting to $1,012,- 504, which leaves a cash balance on hand Of $378,697,402.

With the exception of the month of July, when, it being the be- nning of the fiscal year, there {s always largely increased expenditures, there has not been a monthly deficit since April, 189, The principal falling off in revenues is in customs, where the recelpts were $22,869, 962, as against $26,741,700 for October, 1902, Internal revenues show total receipts ot 20,813,861, an increase of about $37,00. The leading factor in the deficit, however, is the increase in the expenditures from $46,904,965 in October, 132, to 351910478 for October this year. These expenditures were occa- sioned by a deficiency of over $3.000,000 in postal revenues and over $1,600,000 pald to the St. Louls Purchase exposition. The ex- penditures on account of the War depart- ment Incredsed about $2,000,000 and over 32, 000,000 on account of the navy. ‘Both of these departments were given Increased ppropriations at the last session of con- gress.

" v e WOMAN IN CLUB From cholce and otherwise, the women who attended yesterday's meeting of the Woman's club were treated to an after- noon of civic improvement. Some time ago the club was Invited to join the City Fed- eration of Improvement clubs, such mem- bership to entail a fee of §2 and a possi- bility of being taxed $1 a month to help meet the expenses of the organization A discussion of the advisability of such membership occupled the greater part of the business hour, there belng a varlety of opinfons. While the club is heartily In favor of the city federation and what it proposes to accomplish, many of the women felt that such work was a little out of the line of the club, while others insisted that H,I’l\! one of Its branches of work and deserved the support of the club, Others objected to afMliating with the federation on the ground that the elub might 8o be drawn Into politics, but altogether there was no very strong argu- ment brought from either side and after a tiresome discussion the motion to join was lost by one vote. Immediatgly after the decision, the member who ldad the opposition gave notice thal the matter would be reopened in two weeks, when a larger attendance might ‘be present, to act upon it P The membership of the elub is steadily Increasing and Is considerably larger now than at any time last year. The treasurer yesterday reported elght new mermbers as having - qualified since the last mheeting and nine new names were proposed for membership. The remainder of the businéss hour was devoted to a most interesting and instruc- tive talk by Mrs. W. W. Keysor on the St. Louis exposition. jMrs. Keysor was re- ceived with applause as she came to the platform, this being the second time she has addressed the club since reslgning its presidency on her removal to St. Louis last year. The afternoon program was In charge of the department of political and soclal sclence, Mrs. C. L. Lobingier leader, a plano solo by Miss Corinne Paulsen being the opening number. The work of clvie Improvement being one of the branchek of the department work, the program was devoted to this subject, Mrs. Tilden giving a resume of this work that has been done by the club. The record was altogether creditable and presented most interestingly. Mr. E. J. Cornish was the other speaker, “Parks and Tree Planting,” with special reference to Omaha, being his subject. e emphasized the value of parks and boule- vards, citing the increase in value of prop- erty In Hanscom Place as compared to other portions of the city with greater natural advantages and Feauty, because of its location near Hanscom park. The same being irue of the property along Central boulevard, Bemis park and the other boulevards. Regarding tree planting, he advised the planting of a single varlety along the streets to preserve uniformity. He sald it has been the experience of the park board that young trees planted here, in the spring or fall, will' do well if prop- erly cared for, ahd that it had not been the experience of the superinténdent of parks that the soft maple suffered from the winds of this climate, as has been claimed by sotfe. He advised the elm, how- ever, as the most practical street troe, though the hackberry, locust and sycamore have also proven successful.

DESTROYS FOURTEEN BLOCKS ¥ire on Oovey Island Destroys One Life end Much Property. iDRUNK[N MEN SAID TO BE RESPONSIBLE Two Walters Locked Up Accused of Setting Fire Which Caused Much Distress at Pleasure Resort, NEW YORK, Nov. 2—Fourleen solld blocks of bulldings in ruins, one life ) hemeless and a financial loss of $1,500,000 is the outcome of an alleged drunken treak which resulted in the fire at Coney Island yesterday.

Wolf says he saw them start a fire which he put out. Again yesterday, he aserts, they started a second fire, but he arrived just as the flames shot up and was unable to control them as he had done on Frida. When he saw his own place go up like tinder and heard that his brother-in-law, Albert Rubin, had his skull fractured by leaping from a window to save himself, he told the police of Connolly and Skelly. The story of the alleged incendiarism wa all over the island while the flames were at their height and feeling against Connolly and Skelly ran high.

HARRISON FIGHTS GAMBLING Mayor of Chicago Wounld Stop Trams- mission of Raeing News by Ticke! CHICAGO, Nov. 2—In an effort to stamp out the handbook evil, a system of betting on horse races which has existed in Chicago for several years, Mayor Carter Harrison tonight sent an ordinance to the city coun- cil providing for the licensing of all tele- graphic “tickers” In use in the city. The end sought by the ordinance is the preyen- tion of the use of “tickers” for the trans- mission of racing news, betting odds or othet iInformation for the making of bets or wagers on horse races, or any other in- telligence for the purpose of gambling. The license fee for each ticker required by the ordinance ls §1 a year, In addition to & bond of $1,000 that the applicant shall faith- fully observe and keep all city ordinances. In explanation of the necessity for such a stringent ordinance Mayor Harrison, in a communication to the council, sald: Mu\nil years ago the evils resulti from gambling engaged in through the instru- mentality of various lottery companies be- came so far rnnrhln{ and demoralizing that general prohibitive legislation by the fed- eral congress was called for and secured. he evils attendant upon the prevalent crage for gambl on horse races cer- tainly demand as vigorous measures as were resorted to when the united sentiment of the nation exacted from congress the stamping out of lottery gambling. How general is the tendency of the day to risk money on the outcome of horse races may be learned from the recent reports in {he local press of notices being posted by the managements of large business houses prohibiiing their empla{a- from making Wagers on horse races or frequenting places where wagers may be made. Handbooks today are made in a_large number of raloous, in hiliard rooms, barber shops and cigar rtores, ' Indeed, 1t is serted, the suburban {rains on various rall~ roads are systematically worked by hand- book makers, ‘who ulso employ emissaries to inake dally rounds of office buildings for the soliciting of bets and the increase of patronage. . The _revocation of the llcenses of &1l licensed institutions proven guilty of har- boring handhook makers has only resulted In driving the makers of books into places which cannot be reached by this means. For this reason, 1 have had the ordinance prepared, and if it {8 passed by the city councll I feel confident {t will put a stop to this sort of gambling. The ordinance will cut off all Information as to odds, ders, starters, etc., now given general rrency through the medium of the tickers Union Pacific Man Promoted, TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 2.—The Unfon Pa. cific officials today announce the promotion of J.
