preparations of S607 600 for U. s. marshals and
deputy marshals, and s4OO,OOO for the govern
ment printing Office. The latter amount
is reduced 100000 by the committee, in
consequence OF the passage by both
Houses (since the pending bill was pre-
pare4 Of the special appropriation OF 100000
for the same purpose. The committee agreed
to recommend the addition OF items Of

department building and $sOo 900 to provide for
placing water and gas fixtures ETC., in the
nearly completed National Museum during the

appropriation for marshaiS ana their deputies
win not be changed but the committee decided
that an amendment should be made in
the phraseoiogy Of the clause relative to
the future method Of appointing deputy
marshals Of elections. The House pro-
vision on this subject requires their appoint

Judges but the constitution provides that all
Officers shall be appointed BY the President,

Senate with the reservation that Congress NAV
by law vest tho appointment Of such inferior
officers as it thinks proper In the President
