Washington, Feb. 11.—The post- office appropriation bill for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1897, was completed yesterday by the House committee on postoffices and post- roads. It carries $95,614,711, or $5,040,150 more than for the cur- rent year, and $1,903,697 less than the estimate of the department. There is an increase in the allowance for the free delivery service, which is $12,595,000, in this bill. The in- rease for letter-carriers in offices which have recently been raised to the » delivery class is $140,000. The stmaster General is authorized to use any of the unexpended balance for the current fiscal year of the ap- propriation for special facilities on trunk lines for other purposes. A provision is included that the marine free-delivery service at De- troit shall be performed by the use of rowboats and not by the employment of a steam launch or boats. A proposition was made to reduce the appropriation for special mail fa- cilities on trunk lines from Boston ly way of New York and Washington to Atlanta and New Orleans to $67,- 000, but the attempt failed and the committee voted to retain the present allowance of $6,614 for this service. } A RAIL WAR IS ON Price to $17 & Carnegte Cuts thi Ton Pittsburg, Feb, 11.—The collapse of the rail pool has also pro- duced the heaviest buying on record.

Finally he carried the pris- oner to the nearest lamp post, and chained one leg to the top, ‘The darkey was a spectacle! There he stood with one leg elevated almost to the top of the post and chained there. After occupying this awk- ward position for several minutes, the recalcitrant prisoner shifted un- easily about and racked his brain for some way to extricate himself, for be was aching all over. He found it. By a sudden effort he climbed uf and sat astride the cross beau at thc top of the iron post in a perfectly comfortable position. The people’ who had been watching operations laughed, and Overseer Francis looked like he acknowledged his de- feat.

He said that in his opinion a man «did not necessarily have to make sale pretenses in so many words tw be guilty of the charge, but that bis actions, if th ated a belief in the mind of anyone and resulted in his parting, with his money, were sufticient to convict.
