Station B is aituated on Grand street, and is patronized chiefly by the Hebrews of that section, who, owing to thelr recent ar- rival In America, cannot speak English and do not understand it. The clerks in Station B do Rot understand @ word of German, and I have very frequently noticed that when the Hebr have mail matters to attend to they are treated with a contempt that is very unbecoming an employes of this glorious country, This, I think, ts abominable, and should not be tolerated by a cistlined mation. I would suggest rks be appointed who understand German, ai how to act with civility. Your valuable paper has already done a ‘‘world" of good, and I would ‘ask of you to try to bring this reformation about. 1.
