Pout Deliveries In Cllr rt n,t
ernl Mentis of Conrrritnce
Will )1r Tried Ottt.
The heavy parcels po!t business during
the first two days the system was In
operation hss prnctlcally stripped the
Omaha postofftce of t and t-rent pnrcels
pout stamps. Assistant Postmaster Wood
ard has called a halt on the reckless sale
of these denomination at the stamp win
dow. It wa not due so much to the enormous
votume of business that these stamps
have, been practically exhausted, but to
the fact that the stamp sellers sold ones
and tivo recklessly for parcels that re
quired lancer amounts of postal. Bvcn
when they wild have sold 60-cent stamps,
10-cent stamps or Jl stamps, they often
made up the amount with a quantity of
ones and twos. While the postofflce had
received a consignment of WW) 2-cent
stamps, they are nearly ail gone. From
now on until a new supply comes every
thing that can be sent for stamps of a
denomination other than a 1-cent or a 2
cent stamp will be sent that way.
Hundreds of -people have, not yet learned
the necessary lesson that parcels post
matter must be mailed with parcels post
stamps. Accordingly this morning a blc
basket of parcels that ate to bo sent back
to the senders were collected. It Is one
of the regulations of the panels post
law that all fourth clans matter must
now go under tho parcels post regulation
and with parcels post stamps. The Post
office department desires to learn exactly
b hat revenue' tne parcels post brings In.
and a special stamp for this class of
business In the only thine that will get
them this Information.
Insurance I.lmlt j Lnraer.
A special notice has just, been received
at the postofflco calling attention to nn
error appearing on the printed receipt
portion of the Insurance tag that Is at
tached to parcels Insured. The receipt tog
saya the limit of Indemnity shall be $!f.'
The department calls the attention of
postmasters to the fact that the limit of
indemnity is, In fact, IM.
Two extra, carriers Iulvo been put on
the routes In the city delivery department.
The carriers ore handling all the parcels
afoot. Although an automobile was tried
out the first day, It Is by no menus
settled ,yet as to what modo of conveying
the parcels will be finally adopted perma
nently. "
if the parcels business Is heavy Satur
day a horse arid wagon likely will bo used
to help out In the. deliveries. Various
scheme will be tried out until the depart
ment finds what la the most practicable
way of handling tho deliveries. Uundles
of laundry sent from out In the state to
the Omaha laundries were among the
parcels received. Other parcels from their
weight and size suspiciously gave tho sug
gestion of brickbats.
