THE ASSOCIATED PRESS soUABaLE.

A fierce quarrel is now going on bet ween the
deposed superintendent of the Associated
Press, ID. II. Craig. and the New York general
management of that organization. The Asso-
citation charges mismanagement and inefi-
cheney upon Craig. and the latter alleges that
the Association has .soutlived Its usefulness :"
and he announces that he has organized an
opposition association which will furnish
news more cheaply and satisfactorily. Who
ever may be at fault, Craig or the executive
committee, IL is certain that the newspapers of
the country have had great reason for com.
plant. The wretched bungling, or worse. in
regard TO cable news, is familiar grievance
The Associated Press agents had got so slug
gish, in fact. that the papers outside Of New
Yo'k had pretty much given up the idea of
getting any news on the same day of its occur
renee. For instance, on Tuesday last the drift
of the voting was SO apparent in New York
city that the afternoon papers of that city gave
returns OF what Congressman were elected.
with tally of the state of the vote in different
wards. Yet the Associated Press failed to send
line even TO indicate that an election was
going on there. Yesterday not a word was
vouchsafed by the Associated Press agent in
Baltimore as 10 the proceedings in the case of
the imprisoned police comm .ssioners. a matter
of great interest here. The mismanagement of
the Philadelphia offiee has been a subject of
complaint amongst newspaper men for a long
time. Yet Mr.. Craig, or whoever is response
BILE, seems 10 have made no effort TO remedy the
evil.
The country press, which is now paying at
the rate of s75,OO0 per annum 10 the New York
association, has had no voice whatever in Its
management, and any complaint or remon-
STRANGE has been answered by an insoIent
threat to cut of the reports altogether from the
journal complaining. We are glad, therefore,
to see wholesome competition threatened by
this movement of Mr.. Craig, and hope that
both organizations may be keptup. as the press
of the country and the reading public can
hardly fail 10 benefit thereby

EMPLOYMENT FOB tn. FREEDMEN OF
TIE DISTRICT

General Charles II. Howard, Assistant Com
missioner OF the Freedmen's Bureau, has is
sued a circular TO colored preachers of this
District, with a request that it be read to their
congregations. The circular sets forth that
there is much larger number Of freed people
In the District than can find work at proper
wages, and the Bureau has sought the aid OF
benevolent societies in the N orth and East, and
called upon Offices Of its own, for the furnish.
ing 20 the freedmen of employment with fair
remuneration. About 5000 freed people have
been provided for during the past year, having
been furnished transportation from this CITY
to places at which employment had been
secured for them. 1t is stated In the circular
that amongst population Of 2a,0OU freed peo
pie in the District. probably not more than
$1,000 can obtain work at fair wages and the
colored people are in vited to avail themselves
OF the agency of the Bureau in giving them
transportation to points where they can be
furnished with employment.

THE WORK AT rAH ARsrNALI

From the fact that orders had been issued by
the Ordnance Department directing the trans.
fer OF some OF the work being done at the
Washington Arsenal to other points, an ap-
prehension was created that most of the force
now employed at the Arsenal would be thrown
out OF employment in fact that the operations
OF the Arsenal would be virtually suspended
We learn, however. that such will not be the
case, and that as much of the work will be re-
tanned here as can be done ad vantageous Iy to
the interests OF Government. A considerable
quantity Of cartridges have been sent to the
Frankfort Arsenal to be broken up from tbs
fact thar from the large amount Of dangerors
ma'erial now stored at the Washington
arsenal, it was not deemed safe to do the
work here. The rifle shell establishment which
employs few hands has been transferred IN
Fortress Monroe, as it was found to be incon
yenient TO have it detached from that point
In regard to the repairs upon the large num-
bers Of gun. carriages accumulated in the
Arsenal grounds unhoused, we learn that az
many of them will be retained here for remains
as can, in the opinion OF General Ramsey, be
properly attended to at the Arsenal shops. We
are certain that General Dyer, head OF the
Ordnance Department. ana General Ramsav.
the Commandant of the Washington Arsenal,
have both the kindest feelings towards this
community, and will not unnecessarily divert
any work from this point
