Post dice Pais Them as Mnch as Monetary Reform According to Congressman Hitt. No Chance for State Ban-la, he Says. Two Southern Representa tives Opposite Views. Journal Buiikau, Washington, D. C, Nov. 27. '97. t An interesting addition to the infor mation on the more or less talked of subject, do women make as efficient employes as men? is contained in an official report of the Post Office Depart ment, made in answer to a request of the German government, as to'what had been the general experience of our postal service with women employes. The re- port says women are employed in all branches of the postal service, except as letter carriers, clerks in the railway ser vice and inspectors, and that there are no rules or regulations shutting them out of any branch of the service. The women employed are paid the same salary that men get for doinsr the same class of work and the conclusion of the department is that the services of women have proven almost, if not equally as satisfactory us those of men. Iu the Post OnVe Depart ment at Washington, there are 167 wom en employed, who draw salaries ranging from $ 240 to If 1SO0 a year, according to work done. There are in the country 7,070 women postmasters, and it is esti mated about 80,000 women are employed in the post offices. The latter number had to be estimated, because the depart ment has no record of the employes of postolHces below tho Presidential class. Representative Hitt, of Illinois, chaii man of the committee of foreign affairs, when asked today what his committee is likely to do at the coming session of Congress, said he thought foreign affairs would be overshadowed by the nuiner ous schemes to be proposed for reforming the currency. 'This seems to be the ab sorbinz topic just now," said .Mr. Hilt, "and whilri I have not formed an opin iou yet as to what is likely to be the out come. It seems to me that every one I have met has a plan of his own, which he hopes will be eventually adopted. There is a ureal divergence of opinion as to the manner in which the best results cau be obtained, but it is not unlikely that some provision for liberalising the present nat ional banking system may lie made. There is absolutely no reason to believe a system of State banks will be provided for, because while the South, in which there is a scarcity of money, demand State banks, the West, which is equally interested in securing an iucreased money supply, is decidedly against Slate hank ing institutions. Inc. nest sintered more than any other section of t lie coun try from the wildcat currency to the old State banks and men have not yet for gotteu it." Representative Meyer, of New Orleans who is one of the few sound-money Dem ocrats among the Southern members' said today that, in his opinion, no cur rency bill could pass the House unless forced through by the whip and spur of party discipline. ' I believe," said Mr. Meyer, "that the Republicans are as greatly divided over tiie subject of cur rency reform as the Democrats." Representative Livingston, of Georjin, anticipates the passage of a currency bill in the House. If there is to be fluaucial legislation of any kind, Mr. Livingston favors a bill which will allow national banks to Issue notes to the par value of their bonds and the removal of all tax from bank-note currency. This provision however, he thinks should be coupled with a restrictive measure to prevent the banks from retiring their notes and thus contracting the circulation.

Mr- Hester makes the week's move ment about fifteen thousand bales less than last week. This gives the market quite a steady tone at the close, for a movement equal to last week was ex pected. However, apart from this, the market has been well sustained for three weeks past. Buyers have been found for the immense volume marketed this month on the basis of 5Jc in New York and 3Jd in Liverpool. The large business accomplished at such steady rates, illustrates the wide spread conlidence in cotton at present values. Spinners and investors, together, have absorbed all offerings.thus checking the previous declining tendency. It is a good sign and gives promise of continued liberal support on every mod erate decline. It is to be noted how ever, that no material advance has taken place and leads to the conclusion that an advance just now would lemove a very important element of support. Less than one half of the crop has been marketed and the least desirable portion now remains to be sold. Unti more of the crop is absorbed, either by spinners or for investment, an advance would seem to he immature. It has been a very quiet week without any develop ment of special interest. Robert Moore & (Jo. for Hnfv Iieliilt. Special to Journal. R.U.kkih, N. C, Nov, 27. John Barnes, a inerch nit of Rocky Mount, convicted if attempting to outrage Miss Cora Yarborough, who lived iu his fam ily, was sent here to jail by Judge Tim- ticrlakc, for safe keeping. He is under 7 yesrs sentence, but has appealed. I.nlfmt KrwH Item. London, November 2d I he season for military operations on the northwest frontier of India is ended. Snows make the mountains impassable after Novem her. Nearly all the tribes have submitted. Some of the Afridis, however, still hold out. Havana, November 26 No American citizen is now confined in prison in the Island of Cuba. The Spanish authorities today released from prison Thos. Jordan, a prisoner captured, according to the allegations, after the landing of an expe dition by the American steamer Three Friends, and Manuel Hernandez, who is said to have been a member of another filibustering expedition. Both men were under sentence of death. New York, Nov. 20. As a result of the war now being waged between the Arbuckle ColTce Company and the Wool son Spice Company the sales of coffee during the week now ending have been far in excess of any similar period during the past year. Coffee brokers declared today that their sales had been doubled. The Woolson Spice Company, which is controlled by the Havemeyers, is selling Rio No. 7 at 9 cents a pound. Not to be outdone the Arbuckles have made a re duction in their prices. Coffee is now cheaper than it has been since before the war, say the o'd dealers, and if the fight continues there is no telling whai price it will go for. Another reason for We low price is to be found in the enormous quantity of green coffee now here. THE MARKETS. Yesterday's market quotations furnish ed by W. A. Porterfleld fc Co.

Journal Hi reac, ; Rai.kioh, N. C. Nov. 27. j Governor Russell offers $41)0 reward for the capture of the unknown tramp who yesterday shot and mortally wounded engineer L. M. Bumgardner, at Fletcher's, Henderson county. A tele gram sent the Governor says this tramp, in company with another, was put off the train three tunes as the train was leaving Fletcher's. The last time engi neer Bumgardner went back to aid the conductor. It was then the tramp shot him and fled. Three convicts from Granville arrived at the penitentiary today. Editor Robert M. Fiirinan of the new morning Democratic paper here, the Post, was asked this morning what would be ils politics. He replied "Straight Democratic. This tills the bill. I cannot say more before our paper appears Weduesday." Burglars made a daring raid last night at the home of John M. Smith here. II shot one of them, A Western Republican paper makes the astounding assertion that the Demo crats are responsible for t lie condition of things under the present State ud minis tration, as they hold most of the offices. In fact the only Democrats In otlice are the Superintendents of Slate institii tions. The Populist leaders are remarkably aroused to talking pull tics now. Thcv are by no means sure of their footing. The social event of the coming week here is Ibe marriage at Christ Church i f Miss Sadie Tucker, daughter of the Iat Mai. R. S. Tucker, to Mr. Will William son, the owner of the Pilot cotton mill Gov. Russell left for Wilmington today to return Tuesday. He saiit this morninz that he wished lie knew some way to get away from newspaper men and your correspondent suggested that he try a balloon, lie laughed and siid that might be a goou idea. Nothing was said about a parachute. Quite a lot of cotton is yet in the fields despite the positive assertions of the far mers that they would pick it all by the middle of October. I he fact is the crop is far larger than they were willing to admit it was. Stale Auditor Aver enthusiastically endorses the proposed State textile school and so writes the committee, lie says that even a Bmall beginning will lead to its success and to Slate aiil for it. The State Teachers association Dressinc the matter of uniting the teach ers or this Male and tnose oi iieorgia. South Carolina, and Tennessee in an inter-State association. Much correspon dence is in progress. Greensboro now claims the foot ball championship of North Carolina. Very heavy rain fell last night. It was greatly needed by the farmers. Interest in the recently discovered graphite mines in McDowell county is great. The action of llie erann jury in iiowan in indicting nineteen merchants for sell ing cigarettes to minors may have a good effect. So far convictions for this offence have been few. It does not appear that there is any abatement of the smoking of cigarettes by small boys. OADTOHIA, 7 ilmlls li n vrappcfc Looking For Me !
