axiating acale of wages should be made,
tbe award shall be effective from
November 1. It waa fully expected
that this question would come op before
tbe arbitrators, bet tbe aetioo of yee-
terday shuts off any poarible controver
sy that either aide may have desired to
raise. Tbe miners wanted tbe new
scale, if one ia made, to date from tbe
time they returned to work, bat tbe
operators left tbe matter to be decided
by tbe commission. The mibeworkera
are perfectly satisfied, however, with
tbe decision of tbe commission. The
strike has been off nearly eae week, and
most of the men have not worked more
than four or five days. Tbe announce
ment of tbe commission was contained
in tbe following resolutioa:
“ Vote unanimous that if tbe commis
sion at tbe conclusion of its bearings
and deliberations makes any award
affecting rates of wages, such award
shall taka effect from November 1,
1802.”
It ia possible that tbe commissi, n
may make e preliminary report on
three principal strikequratloar.
They
are tbe increase in wages, a sbor i
work day, and .tbe weighing of cool.
After these have been decided, tbe com
mission cun take op all other questions
without undue haste. It la known that
tbe commissioners have this feature
under consideration, and it ia probable
a preliminary report will be made.

2,270 presidential postmasters were
appointed last year, according to tbe
annual report of J. L. Bristow, fourth
assistant postmaster general, just ie-
seed. This ia the largest number ap-
pointed in any one year In tbe history
of tbo postal service. Thu increase was
dne mainly to tbe expiration of non-

vance ot many fourth ctaa offices to tbe
presidential grade.
Tbe total number of appointments of
postmasters of ail cfatyM waa 16,970,
an increase of 1,919.
There was a
slight increucw in tbe number of re-
morals of postmasters “ for cause,”
ee a result of a strict discipline for
es re less doss and irregularities. There
were 9,06$ postoffice* established and
4,060 discontinued, tbe latter attribut-
able mostly to tbe uxtwaeion of tbe
