Report of Assistant Postmaster General on the Subject Washington, Nov. 20. First Assist ant Postmaster General Johnson, in his annual report, says tho yearly in crease in tho postal revenues has re sulted in tho frco delivery sorvico be coming self sustaining. Of tho gross postal lovonucH of tho United States for tho past fiscal year, $71,205,391 camo from 800 frco delivery cities. Tho remaining 3,000 presidential offices yielded $10,003,252, while the 72,':179 fourth Qliuis postofllcea pro: "diiced $18,013,510. Sir." Johnson says that tho fact that tho postal sorvico in tho largest cities is practically por feet is tho explanation of why the annual per ccntago of increases in the reveuuo of tho freo delivery postolllces should bo three times as largo as that of tho fourth class olllces. Ah rural freo delivery touches out into tho country, giving equal facilities with out regard to locality, ho says, it in creases the revenues at a rate at least equal to that miiintuiued in the freo delivery cities, where, during tho past five years, it has averaged 8 per cent. At tho end of tho present fiscal year 8,000 rural routes will bo in successful oporation, 0,000 being in ell'eot by December 2. Tho latter figure repre sents just 50 per cent of tho applica tions for suoh service filed since its inauguration five years ago. Tho in flexible policy is announced of hero after avoiding tho muintouuuco of un necessary postolllces and superfluous star routes contemporaneously with rural freo delivery routes. On July 1 lust the forco of 1,301 rural carriers was serving 2,810,041 people at a fraction of oer 75 cents per capita, and on December 2 next 1,000,000 of the rural population will bu enjoying freo delivery. Every establishment of a route, the report says, is followed promptly by a steady increase in tho volumo of imril both delivered and collected. Tho city freo do i very bervico now embraces 800 cities and towns, in cluding four in tho new insular pos scKsious, all these employing an army of 10,381) uniformed carriers, who collect and carry tho miiilH two ot more times each working day to 32,000,000 patrons. Tho total cost to the department per annum for this service is 50 cents per capita. Tho gross receipts of tho free dol ivory postolfices wero $7-1,205,301, an in crease of over 11 por cont for the year. Tho total estimate for tho noxt tUcal year for this city freo dolivery service is $18,7-16,460. The nverugo daily wiles of inonoy orders in tho United States, fees in cluded, are $037,811, Tlio aggregate amount of money orders issued was $291,018,081, an increase of $39,000, 000 for tho.ye.tr.

At this point tho lieutenant's men arrived, rescued him, and put the insurgents to flight. Van Schaok is in the military hos pital at Manila, and is doing well.

Tho bodies which tho rescuers man aged to pull from tho burning ruins wero so badly burned that tholr iden tity will probably never bo ascertained.
