On tbs question of par mla p u t he aaid: ” 1 shall reoommend tbs same rate, 12 cents a pound, and the same lim it of weight lor parcels, whether intended for points in this country or abroad, whicn means a redaction of four oents a pound and increase in the maximum weight to eleven pounds.” Taking up the rural parcels p u t q tion he said: ” 1 shall recommend a parcels p u t system on the rural delivery routes, special rate to be charged on packages for delivery from the distributing offices of the rural route, er if mailed by patron of any rural route for delivery to a patron on the same route cr at the distributing offiu of aaid route. The rate would be five cents for the first pound and two unto for each additional pound, up to eleven ponnds. This won id be a great boon for the farmers*” Regarding postal savings, banks, the putmaster genera) raid: " A s an evidenu that it is not the de sire of the government to compete with the private savings banks in obtaining depuita of the people, I shall advocate a rate of interest of 2 per oent per an num, or 1 per oent aemi-annnally and a lim it of $600, not more tnan $260 to be deposited in any one year. M y own belief is that far from its being a detri ment to the established banks, it would be in the end an advantage. Now, in order to get thia money back into the channels of trade. I purpose to aak con gress for authority to place the savings in the National banks.” San Francisco, Oct. 26.— When the Ford bribery trial was resumed yester day the cross examination of ex-Super visor James L.

IM P O R T A N T W A T E R W A Y O PE N . First Link of Daap W ater Channel from Lakes to Gulf. Sterling, 111., Oct. 26.— A distinct and important step In the movement to secure a deep waterway from Lake Michigan to the G o lf of Mexico v taken yesterday with the opening to navigation of the Illinois and M i«is - elppi canal, which has been eompletet after 30 years of work. The importance of the event waa evidenced by the at tendance of Governor Deneen and many ether notables at the opening ceremo nies. The work of constructing the canal, which was formerly known aa the Hennepin canal, was commenced many years ago. In 1890 co n g re« ap propriated money to carry on the work and altogether the appropriations have amounted to abont $8,000,000. The main line of the canaL, 76 m i l « long, extends from the Illin ois river near Hennepin, to the MiMissippl river, three miles below Rock Ialand The navigable feeder, about 30 m il long, extends from Rock river at this point to the main line near Sheffield and Is of the « m e general dimensions as the main line. The canal ia 62 feet wide at the bot tom, 80 feet at the water line, and has a minimum depth of seven feet. There are 32 locks on the main line and one on the feeder. W ater is to be forced down the canal by a great dam, one- fourth of a mile long, located at this point. A t one end of the dam are 21 sluiceways, which w ill be used for elec trical power development. WONDERFUL CHANGE Great S tru tti» Stud Where Eartbqaaks Lift fasti. SAN FRANCISCO BOLDS RECORD Sines the Great Fire 18 Months A g o Buildings Hava Bean Begun to Coat 8100,000.000. San Franciaoo, Oct. 26.— It is 18 months ago that San Franc*aco waa swept by firs and earthquake. Since then she has been affiiCwd with indus trial strife, civic corruption and bu bonic plague. I t is no opportune mo ment to take stock. It d o « not require an optimist to writs the rosy stbry o f ths revival. The facta and the figures tall their own story and they are hero for everyone to see. Great buildinga with their rigid f r o m « laoing across the sky, commercial avenues orowded w ith pedestrian* and a vast industrial army tall a tale that ev> a the casual observer must note. The San Franciaoan may be ia truth pardoned if he shows a dlajoaition to place his thumbs in his rest and boast, of what ha haa dona. But ha hasn’ t much lima for boasting. The terrible pace begun when the first frame struc ture was started has not abated. Th e point h u been reached where results are beginning to show, and w ith thia has come a new seat for tha vast work. Since the fire buildings have been begun to oost $100,000,(XXL—five times aa much u In any sim ilar period of time before tha fire. They range a ll tha way from tha email structure to skyscrapers 14 or 16 etcries high. Ik is as though a building were begun every day to cost $180,000. There ia no sign of a decrease, although it ia expected that there w ill be a natural falling off over the winter months.* The remarkable feature of the matter, however, ia the stability of the savings accounts. Predictions were freely made that San Francisco could be built only upon the savings of its citizens. A l though $100,000,000 in buildings are nnder way' or completed, the savings accounts in tbs local banka have shown but a small decrease and still stand a i tbe comfortable figure of $167,000,000. I t has been pointed out that it re quired two years for Baltimore to erect buildings to cost $60,000,000 after Its fire, but San Francisco has done four times as well in six months I s « tim e. Baltimore's achievement was comment ed upon at ths time as marvelous. Burlington Is A fter Coal. Helena.
