M it 5 Jfi. m m, t s WEDNESDAY, DEC. 2, 1885. OCEAN MAIL SUBSIDIES. Special despatch to S. J' Gall.) Washington, Nov. '22. Postmaster-General Vilas will, according to an editorial hi this morning's 1'ost, niako in his annual repot t a defence of his action in refusing to distri bute the S 100,000 appropriated by the act of March Unl last, to be paid to American steamship lines for carrying foreign mails. The argu ment in the Post, which rai evi- .1 41.. 2 ..! 1 1... 1. 11...1 . ucuuy luspiiuu uy uiu j. eiswnasiiu- in uenerat, is a tame excuse lor a pal pable violation of an act. of Con gress. The Postmaster - General claims that the law was not manda tory, but that he could or could not obey its piovision at his discretion. A good deal of space is devoted to what is called the abuse and mis representation of "the organs of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company," and the Postmaster-General protests that he has not endeavored to dis courage American shipping. The article says that the Postmaster General explored, with genuine and anxious vigilance, the new field broached by the act of March Jlnl, but the investigation disclosed in superable iliilicultics. It appeared first that the assigning of contiacts as a result of competitive bids as hopelessly impossible, as in only two instances among the numerous ocean routes over which the mails were to be sent w as there competi tion. The others were in the hands of monopolies,. In only two cases, theieforc, could the law be obeyed ; in the lest the law would have to be ilagiantly set at naught. Be tween New i'oi k and Havana, and between San Fiancisco and Asia the department could have secured for the Government the benefit of competition, but over the other routes, to South America, Ccntial America, Australia and New Zeal and, the monopoly lines would have been without restraint. They were free to demand the maximum of fifty cents per mile specified in the law. According to the figures found in the depaitmcnt, when the Demo cratic administration came in, the total number of miles bailed in 1881 by ships cairying United States mail was 2,050,000, and at the fifty cent rate allowed in the act this would call for $1,025,000, two and a half times the amount appropri ated for the purpose. It is claimed that by the arrangement now made the mails arc transported quicker and more frequently than foimerly, and that the country is therefoie benefited by the Postmaster-General's action. It is evident that General Vilas fcais that Congress will investigate his course in the matter of the refusal to obey the plain intent of that body when the act in question was passed, and seeks to create public opinion in his favor bj' getting his defence in print in advance of the meeting of Con gress. The enforcement of Bismarck's edict exiling Russian Poles fiom Prussia has caused gi eat suffei ing, and a relief committee at Cracow calls the edict cruel and inhuman. The feeling of bitterness engendered is becoming daily more intensified. The inconvenient consequences of the withdrawal of Belgium from the Latin Monctaiy Union are beginning to be felt in France. In a few weeks the Belgian silver five-franc piece will cease to be a legal tender. The total loss on all the repudiated money circulating in France will exceed 30,000,000 francs.
