Lincoln County advocate. (Canton, Dakota Territory, [S.D.]) 1876-1877, 1876-05-24
The Secretary Of War has transmitted

The Secretary Of War has transmitted
to the House thereport of reductions from
the estimates contained in the book of e.
Inmates for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1870. In the contingencies of the Adju-
tant-Gencral's Office and signal service
none are recommended. In the Quarter
masters department and in the ordinance
the reductions are large, and in the En-
gineer's department considerable. There
is reduction Of 100000 in the esti-
mates for clothing and equippage and
$1,000, 900 In the estimates for the arma-
nent of Notifications. The estimates for
Rock Island and Benecia arsenals, as re-
duced, will equal the demand for the pres.
ent uses, while the large additional strict
ures for prospective uses, which must
hereafter be made, may be safely postpon-
ed to future. The entire reduction from
the book If estimates to which the reso-
luton of the House refers is $5,607 ,605.
The Secretary says it seems important that
the estimates for a building for the State,
War and Navy departments apply 10 the
fortifcations, river and harbor bills which
passed the House.
