Thl action was forecasted by the re
port of Freeman I Heed, cnKKl to
check over the accounts of Superintendent
Barritt. which showed that Uiurltt was
short in his lecounts to tha amount of
tTC'.tC. A demand was made upon him
early in September for the return of this
amount and it was promptly compiled
with. This, however, did nvt meet all
of the condition, rop liie report showed
that the management of the farm had
been las and Inefficient In many other
rrf-pcrts, and the bonrd decided to call
for Ills rcslKiiation. Tho committee was
Instructed to ak for It on September
15 to take effect on October 1. but on
account of the annual county plcinlo at
the farm between those dates tha com
mltteo and tho board yielded to the
earnest entreaties of his friends to defer

Air. Harrltt has been superintendent of
tho farm since Its establishment, and for
tha first years his management was ex
emplary, but It gradually grew li until
thliiKS got Into a snarl.
The position paya $1, a year with a
lot of valuable perquisites that may be
enjoyed by tha superintendent and his
family. There have been no steps taken
toward filling tho vacancy and none will
bu for a few days. There will be plenty
of applications, however, and no diffi
culty In finding a suitable man.

Ram Iteede to Meet Eseasea of
Poatal Service at Large Dar
ing Vear Decreased fcy
Tna Millions.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7-Provlslon for
establishment of a parcel post and trans
portation, of mall by aeroplane ha been
made by Postmaster General Hitchcock
In hi annual estimate of Post Office
department expenditure submitted to the
Treasury department
According to these estimates the appro-
prlatlpns necessary to meet the expenses
of the postal service at large during the
coming fiscal year will be t200.338.443, a
decrease nf $2,555,740 over the appropria
tions for tho current fiscal year, or less
than 1 per cent, the smallest on record.
The most Important of the new Items
are tbnse providing for a parcels post.
They Include :,000 to cover tha prelimi
nary expenses on rural mall routes, and
an equal appropriation to start the serv
ice In cities.
The department believes that after the
Initial expenses are defrayed and the par
cels post Is In full operation on the rural
routes, It will not only bring In sufficient
revenue to meet It cost, but also a sur
plus that can be utilised In paying the
parcels post expenses on the city delivery
service.
Ktpecta l.ealalatlon Soon.
An additional Item of I&O.OIW is Included
to cover an Investigation having for Its
object the final establishment of a gen
eral parcels post nn all railway and
steamboat transportation routes. Mr.
Hitchcock Is confident that legislation
authorising a parcels post on some form
congress.
Another Item Included for the first time
Is $50,000 to cover the experiments In the
transportation of mall by aeroplane. Mr.
Hitch took believes that under certain
conditions It will be possible to usa tho
aeroplane to good advantage..
Fifty thousand dollars Is provided for
time and labor saving mechanical devices
for use In post offices. An Item of 110,000
I added to be expended In giving reward
to postal employes who Invent Improved
mechanical appliances that accelerate the
handling of malls. The law require that
estimates for the various departments of
the government bo sumbltted prior to
October 16.
It will cost $129,000,000 to maintain the
United States navy and provide for suit
able Increaso In the next fiscal year, ac
cording to the estimates completed by
Secretary Meyer. This Includes provision
for two super-dreadnaughts, probably oH
about the slae of the projected Nevada
and Oklahoma, which will displace about
28,000 tor and a suitable number ot auxiliaries.
This figure marks low water In the re
trenchment policy of the administration
so far as the navy is concerned. The esti
mate are the same a the appropriations
for the current fiscal year. Thla year'
appropriation were $5,000,000 less than tho
estimate, for the preceedlng year and
these in turn were $10,000,000 less than the
estimates for tha fiscal year 1908-1903,
was tha last year of the Roosevelt administration.
