the Texas Pacific to n subcommittee, consist

Pacific Railroads. In which the question was
raised whether tho company could execute

the United States was asked to place its guar

committee will report in favor Of tho pro-
posed investigation. II tho clients OF

THE ARMY BILL.
Direct Reductions Effected In the Amount
Needed for the Fay of the Army.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The Army Appro-
printion bill was to-day reported to the House
by Mr.. Hewitt. There is little to add to the
summary already published in The SUN. The
direct reduction. 1t proposes to effect in the
amount needed for the pay OF the army can be
best shown by the following comparative state
ment. in which the first column is the amount
Appropriated by tho bill. and the second the
amount estimated under the present constitu-
ton Of the army:
Pay Department. ........ e. s37 eOs - $50 5ii 50
Supcruumerary officers 47U65O JiB 55J "
Pay and allowances o. uf1.
GERS discharged under the
act ..........-,. 2IGnts5 2eo3Ois o.
The last two items are made necessary by tho
terms Of the bill. which proposes what is practi-
cally purchase oi the commissions OF the older
officers. and a supernumary list ON which the
younger officers. thrown out of active service by
the reduction OF regiments, will 60. The last
item will be much reduced in the future: tho
second Will remain for few years longer.
Both will ultimately disappear II results from
these extraordinary charges that. in spite of the
average reduction in compensation to the
pay is sl2.67O 610lS & for 1879 against al 300 900
Tor the current year; In Its nistrative
changes this bill. as already announced. gone
rally follows Banning's Army bill. Ii cuts Off the
fayoritism hitherto shown in the appointments
OF civilians to the army. by requiring that in
future all vacancies in the grade Of Second
Lieutenant shall be filed either from West
Point or the ranks. There is very palpable
aluston TO Hayess recent appointment OF
Smith in the provision requiring all future va
cancies in the Pay Department to be filed by
men under fOrty-uvc years OF age.
