§ MR. SYNANasked the Secretary to the Treasury, Whether the classification of Telegraph Clerks forwarded by the Postmaster General has been approved of by the Treasury; and, if not, whether it is likely to be so; and, when the new classification will be issued by the Treasury?
§ MR. BAXTERsaid, in reply, that a classification of the telegraph clerks had been forwarded by the Postmaster General to the Treasury, along with a very voluminous Report concerning other branches of the subject. That Report was now under consideration; but, at present, he was not able to announce that any decision had been come to.
