The pojtollu-e ilepai hncut has rdready rreeivi-i! and fi!rl tor exainiuatiou a largo number of claims of postmasters who are entitled to increased salary uu-dt-r the provisions of the readjustment act, known as the Snimlding bill, passed ut the last bessiou of congress. An at torney, representing a number of these postmasters, ia now in Washington and has made an informal argument on their behalf at the postoffice department, main taining that the increase of fcalariea pro- Ividedforby the act may properly he paid out of the regular appropriation lor salaries for the current fiscal year. The officers of the department, however, as sert that the law providing for the read justment of postmasters' salaries cannot be carried into effect without a specific appropriation; that to pay the increase of salaries out of the regular appropria tion would create a deficiency. It is the intention of the department to begiu the work of readjusting salaries under the two per cent postage law as provided for in the Bingham bill, as soon a possible. CHICAGO CERTIFICATES. The acting secretary of th'i treasury has received a comniunicatio.i from the officers of Ht-veral banks in Chicago, ask ing that the silver curtificatos issued by the assistant United States treasurer at at that city be nmdy to bear some maik of identification, and that the gold re ceived there be held to redeem such cer tificates and no others, that the assistant treasurer in Chicago ho eusplied with a reasonable amount of both large and small certificates, and that different de- nominations be ifaUo lutercnaugaoie. The acting secretary replied that it is not deemed expedient to put distinctive marks on the current series of gold cer tificates for the purpose of identification as an issue ot the Chicago office.aud that such mark, would, in his opiuion.lead to complications and tend to discredit these certificates in other cities where in the ordinary course of circulation they might go. The department, he says, is not at present prepared to authorize th issue of a distinctive series tor Chicago alone, since that involves the question of a sep- erate and distinct series for each sub treasury. If, however, the bankers of Chicago wish to exchange one denomin ation of certificates for another, and will so inform him, the department in view of the existing circumstances.will cause the Chicago office to be supplied with gold certificates of smaller deuomiuations.and authorize the desired exchange.
