Mr. Spanglor suggested to Postmaster Gal lagher yesterday that they take a look nbout the outlying districts of the city In order that ho might nayo an Idea of the amount of territory cov.Qj-qji , eta Ho expressed himself us being surprised and aston ished at the great changes which hod taken plan * about the city slnco ho resided hero. Said ho : " 1 stai ted out with the Idea of recommending that the districts that now have but ono carrier delivery per dny should bo Increased to two , but when I saw what n great amount of territory was not covered at all I was forced to the conclusion that tlio Borvlco would have to bo extended , even if it bccama thereby impossible to Increase the sorvlco in the districts which are now served. Wo nro greatly crumped by the appropria tion for carrier service , nnd while I recog- ul.e the fact that Omaha is outltlod to moro carriers , and should have them , it will bo 1m- poslblc at this time to make all the changes necessary. " , Mr. Spanglor was asked how many addi tional carriers ho would recommend. "That is moro than I can stnto at this tlmo , " ho replied.

I don't know whore the reporter got his information mation , but I am sure ho didn't ' got it from Mr. Gallagher. The liloa of such an Increase is absurd. " The reporter Inferred , from Mr. Spanglor's remarks , that not moro than five additional carriers would bo recommended. In the course of his re marks. Mr. Suanglor alluded to the crowded condition of the postofllco , and that some thing should bo done at once to secure addi tional room. The only way this could bo done would bo to rent moro room or to build an addition iu the area west of the building. Ho thought a commodious ono-story addition could bo built for about $10,000. This would afford all the room necessary. This matter should have been attended to lone ago , as the present quarters are entirely too small.

On the Itith of Juno the San Francisco papers contained statements of certain survivors of the disas ter to the American vessels at Samoa , en listed on the Trenton and Vnndnlla , which , if true , picAontcd a seven ) nultotment against the navy department. The papers reported thnt nbout tlilrty of the men were roaming around Snn Francisco urfablo to sccuro the wages duo thdm , destitute- and dependent upon charity. The charges of the men were hi substance that they had n6t been paid "bag money , " about W , which the United States contracted to allow them m ciiSO of tha loss of their clothes by the sinking of the vessel ; that their wngus prior to the date of the disaster liad not been paid , that they had boon discharged andnont adrift , none of them with moro than W5 ; that the clothes furnished them hi Samoa were charged for al regular rales , Ic.ivlug them little or nothing to live on ; that Lieutenant Cnrlln , executive oftltor of the Vnndnlia , refused to sign their cortillcntcs to bo presented to the fourth auditor. Six of tlio sailors Joluod In a petition to Secretary Ululno that he use his Influonuo. Copies of the newspaper articles wcro ulso sent the president. The mutter was referred to Secretary Tracy who ordered an Investigation and tha papers have Just been rolurued to the navy department. Couimoiloio Ucnham , ot the Mnro Island navy yards. says the newspaper articles have a. trraln of truth nnd n great deal of exaggeration in them ; that the attack upon Lioulommt Car- lin Is unjust In the extreme for the reason that ho remained in San Francisco by his own request In order that ho might bo able to look alter tlio Intorostn of the Vnndalla's men.

Eighteen of the man nro reported as having dcsortod after the arrival nnd ofcoursu they received nothing.

Thiswoik is now fiuishcd. Appli cations for Indemnity ( tug money ) hut boon made out for nil the men , dead or nllvo , aud I huvo as yet talton no step toward getting my own money.

John Muir , according to a San Fran cisco letter in the Port hind Oregonian , that ho has by no moans yet completed his explorations in Alaska and that in regard to certain elephant ronminn there , the bridging of Bohring roa , and other matters , ho hopes eooti to add information that will bo of great vnluo to science. Although tlio bridging of Bohring straits haa boon widely ridi culed Muir IH incllnod to think thnt such a feat will ono day bo accom plished lie says : Senator Staniord'a cirdlo of steel around the earth via Boh ring boa is a perfectly feasible scheme. Bohring straits uan bo bridged. It is only ai.xty miles auross in the narrowest place aud there are three islands strung along in it. This would divide the bridge up into four divisions , but besides this tile water ib very shallow. In many plnccs it is not over twenty foot deep. I un dertake to say that if a man was strong enough to talco ono of our California red wood trees in his hands ho could put it down anywhere over the 000 miles of Bohring sea and yotliavo 100 foot of it left above the water. This shows how easy it would , bo to bridge the straits. The only trouble would .be from floating icebergs , but thnt could bo easily overcome by constructing swinging bridges , lilto that they have across the river at Chicago , In this way the straits could be kept clear all the time 'and trains of cars could run right along. ' There are BO many strange tilings in Alaska , " added the diswweror of the Muir ghioinr , "that have not'yotcome to the knowledge of the puhlie that ono v/ho huhbuon them hesitates whdro to begin. Eluphunt remains are found all over the valley of Yukon. AH a mutter pi fact they are found everywhere through out the great western slope ol Alaska.
