WASHINGTON , August 27. Under llio con-
rncl for furnishing postollico envelopes ro-
ently annulled by tbo postmaster-general ,
md previous contracts , envelopes supplied
vero required to bo of certain exact dlmun-
ions. It appears upon investigation that tin-
sizes rsqulrod were difTurcnt from tlioso kept
n stock by the cnvclopo manufacturers in gen-
jr.il. The elfoct of the requirement was to
irovont the great bulk of manufacturers fioiu
jiding upon tlio proposals , IH uxtunclvo and
ostly changes in lh > ir machinery would bo
required for the mnnnfacturo of nizos which
would not bo warranted by the profits from the
inntrnct fnraeinglevoar. Therosullnt the last
etting was to limit the number of bidders to
six firms. To obviate this difliculty the pro-
) oaals just Issued for the supply of UICHOCII-
velopes provide that Mzos tnuv l > o slightly lar
ger than llio dlmontloiH given hut no smaller ,
.hus allowing all manufacturers to compute
'or the contract. The Critic says : "It i sorl-
usly intimated that collusion cxUted in Urn

md that Postmaster-General Grcshnm is at
