A Compromise With the Minlnters. LOCAL LETTERS NOT DELIVERED BY SPECIAL MESSENGERS ON SUNDAY. The arrangement of the special delivery ser vice on Sundays has been left by the Post Office departments largely with the postmas ters. In this city, as in other cities, protests against the employment of the boys on Sun day have been made by ministers, who think the boys should be in Sunday school. The city post office authorities think that letters with special delivery stamps arriving here Sundays are entitled to immediate delivery. Yesterday, according to the postmaster's in structions, all such letters were delivered, but local or drop letters were not This arrange ment required keeping only three messengers on duty at the main office In the morning and three in the afternoon, and thus reduced the evil complained of by the ministers to the min imum. Death of a Female Single Teacher. FORMERLY A WELL-KNOWN OPERA SINGER Mrs. Josephine C. Logan, well-known as a teacher of vocal music, died at her late resi dence, No. 1212 L street, this morning. Mrs. Logan was born in Willimantic, Conn., and early displayed such pronounced musical tal ent that she was sentto Italy,where she studied for severnl years under the renowned Lam perti. She developed a contralto voice of great purity, power, and compass, and her debut at La Scala in Miluu was a pronounced success. She immediately secured an engagement, and sang In opera for a number of years in Europe. Returning to this country,she was the leading contralto In companies organized by Strakofcch, Grau, and Maretzek, and was highly successful in Mexico and South Amcrlca. A loug lit of illness resulted In hor withdrawal irom the operatic stage, and she t hen devoted herelf to teaching. Since her residence in Washington she has included among her pupils the daugh ters of some of our best citizeus, and has also furnished for English opera several ladies who now enjoy good reputations. Her death is a positive loss to the musical community of this city. A meeting of her friends and former pu pils will be held this evening at the office of air. E. B.

The democrats make no claim as to the suc cess of their senatorial ticket in Hamilton coun ty, and class it as doubtful. The republicans, however, claim the four senators with much confidence. The democrats claim the election of their sen atorial candidates in the following districts with a remarkable degree of certaintv: 2d, 1; 3d, 1; 4th, 1: 9th, 1; loth, 1; 12th, 1; 15th and 16th, 2; 17th and 28th, 1; 18th and 19th, 2: 30th, 1; 31st, 1; 32d, 2; 33d, 2. Total, 17. The democratic chairman claims the 6th dts trict, which gave a republican majority of 75 in October last as doubtful, but believe "they can carry it. Conceding this claim, the democrats will have 18 members in the senate. The re publicans, however, are equally confident, as in the case of the 1st (Cincinnati) and 25th (Cleve land) districts. The republicans claim thev will elect mem bers in the following districts: 1st, 4; 5th. 1 6th 1; 7th, 1; 8th. 1; 11th, 1; 13th, 1; 14th, JL 20th, 1; 21st, 1; 22d, 1; 23d, 1" 24th and 26th, 2; 25th, 2; 27th and 29th, 1. Total, 20. ?In the house the democrats claim the election of 46 members sure and 9 as doubtful, which, conceding all their claims, would give thetn 55 members, or Just one-half of t he flouse delega tion. Of those regarded as >ure 3 are claimed in Cincinnati. 3 in Columbus, 1 in Cleveland, and 2 in Lucus. Among the doubtful, and which are included in their claim, are 1 in ilol rnont, 1 in Madison, 2 in Hardin, 1 in High land, 1 in Morrow, 1 in Muskingum, and 1 in Washington. The republicans claim the election of 66 members sure, with a tightiug chance of 3 more. This claim includes the ten members from Cin cinnati. THREATENING KINO THEBAW. A Scheme Briifved le toe on Fsst la England Lssklnc le ttoe Annexation of Upper Bnrmab. Special Cable Dispatch to Thk Evening Stab. London, October 12.?The sensational an nouncement that the government has determ ined on the annexation ot Upper Durtnah is creating much discussion, but we must await confirmation of the report for some time. All the tory organs and speakers have been given hints. Two articles In the National Review sug gested it. On Saturday night Archibald Colqu home, who has been the Times' special corre spondent all over the east, writing to the Timtt directly urged the absolute annexation of Upper Burmali. He says the English would be wel comed; that the native army is contemptible; that King Thebaw is intriguing with the French along the Irrawaddy valley, which is the only route for a railway from India to China through Siam; that Burmah is a very rich country. The Burmese ambassador to Paris denies indig nantly the rumors of intrigues with the French. He asserts that the Burmese are both able and determined to resist annexation by anybody. The ultra radicals will protest strongly. No body of authority has yet mentioned the suO Ject, but Thebaw's abominations have long ex cited disgust and he is probably near the end of his tether. The Greek Minister's RlgnlleMl Special Cable Dispatch to Thk Kvknino Stas. London, October 12?The speech ol the Greek minister, Triconyrles, on Saturday is causing somi alarm. He said it Greece had followed in 1821 the advice similar to that which the pow ers are pressing upon her now, there would lie no Hellenic kingdom to-day. The inference Is obvious. Trloouyrics will have an interview with Lord Salisbury this afternoon, so that hie next utteranoe will be more important. nth Knives In n Cotton Field.

Henry (lews tlnnnclal circular, issued Satnr day, says: "fho stock market developed extra ordinary strength during the past week, and is rapidly regaining its old-fashioned activity, an I! vis?wSt ?n ?r was the recent bid of 929,000 for a seat on the stock exchiinge. Re. actions in prices have been anxiously looked for by the timid bulls, that they might pick up stocks already parted with; but thus tar they have not amieared, and when they do they will undoubtedly be immaterial, for nothing Is now more certain than that we are tairly started upon a course ol at least two years or continued progress and prosperity. As yet there are no Indications of thepresent bull movement hav ing culminated. The market is In the control of strong hands, who have the powerful aids of easy money, recent profits, etc.. and who have also become largo purchasers of stocks, not so much for the purposes of immediate profits or Interest returns as tor the much bigger results of a prolonged rise, which, from their superior advautages of observation, they are the first to Sercelve nothing can prevent. Among the eavy holders or sux'ks there never was less friction or a greater desire for harmony than at present exists. The recent Itear lallures and an uncovered short interest havo been important elements in the advance. The largely oversold condition or the market created a "supply or phantom stock.' at times artificially trebling or uuadrupllng the available supply; which un avoidably depressed values;and during itslioui dation the advance 19 equally irresistible. Concerning the improvement in business, this must soon do reflected in railroad earnings; the testimony or such great business firms In the rr\. trado as Marshall Field Co., and J. V. FarWell A Co., of Chicago; H. B. Claflln A Co., this city, and B. G. Clark, or the Thomas Iron company, being too significant to be Ig nored. Washington Stork Exchange. Government*. Hid. Attkrd.

Seoood Controller M?yui4 has Just returned (torn bin horn* In New York Mate, where behea been tor the past three week* or a month. Hi says polities ere going to be very hot in N?* York this fklL They art Just getting warmed dp to It. and the canvass, he thinks, will bs more thorough than ever before on merely a state election. The contest, too, will be a test ol party strength. Some of the republicans, hs says, seem to feel very confident of electing Davenport, but, tor his part, he can't see upon what they place their oonfldenee. Davenport, he says, has no personal popularity. What strength he has lies in the fact that at Is emi nently respectable, and his character Is beyond reproach. He has plenty of monay, too, and could contribute handsomely to the earn* palgn, but It is said that he has not been in the habit of contributing heretofore, and ha may not do so in his own canvass. Mr. Hill is the choice of his party, Judge Maynard says, and has as spotless a personal character as baa Mr. Davenport He was tatroduosd Into polities by Governor Tilden, and was ane of his most trusted lieuteuants. He has. Judge Maynard says, never been mixed up in any alrty politi cal tricks, and has always happened to oe on the right side, advocating a clean gov ernment and the purification of potttlcs. More over, he is a man without any bad personal habits. He does not drink liquor, and was never known even to smoke a cigar The democrats expect suocees, Judge Maynard says, first, because they think the democratic party Is in the majority in the state, though they ooncedc that the vote Is very close: seooad, because Hill will get the full democratic vote, and, more over, because there are many republicans who came over to Cleveland last mil who than tell the republican party lor good. Notwithstand ing the fact that the mugwump papers have come out for Davenport, M iayi he thinks there are a large nnmbei of republicans who voted for Cleveland and are proud of the successor the new admin istration, and can't quite see the logic of the ar gument of the mugwump papers, that the way to sustain the President Is to vote against hla party that has endorsed him. Judge Maynard says he has personally talked with quite a num ber of prominent mugwumps, who take thli view of the situation, and say they will vote for Hill to endorse Cleveland. Of course." he says, "a large number of the mugwumps will tall back Into the republican party, but not all ol them by any means. On the other hand, he thinks the situation Is such as to draw beck Into the party such democrats as voted fix Blaine. Those." he says, "were mostly work ing men, and Hill having always been their champion, and being their choice for the nom ination, they will naturally vote tor him, and, besides thlR, the tendency to tall back Intoone'a own parly when It has been successful is very great." EX-REPRESENTATIVE HTKVKXS TB1HU HILL U SURE TO WIS. Ex-Representative Stevens, of New York, ia in the city to-day. "We are certain to Win Id New York," he said to a Stab reporter who met him this morning. "Hill will be elected by 40,000 or 50.000 majority if the democrats put up a union ticket In the city. If tltey put up separate tickets the majority may not be more tlian 15,OOP." On Trial for Housebreaking:. ONE OF THE BOGUS LINEMES IS THE CRIHINAt.
