ing upon the. treasurers of departments Tor

ploves in their respective departments, etc.

siye document. 1t contained all informa-
ton called for BY the present resolution, with

Mr.. Kellogg argued that the information
asked by the resolution was not contained in
the .'Blue Book" He hoped the resolution
would be referred to the committee on print
ing and the whole question be taken into
consideration.

minor importance. What Of impor-
lance was that the government should have
efficient officers.
The resolution was referred to the commit
tee on printing.
Mr. McDill called up the resolution offered by
him yesterday, directing that hereafter there
shall be contained in the official register of
the United States information as to the Con-
gressional district from which each govern
ment employe is appointed.
Mr.. Brown offered an amendment asking
for further information as to whether such
employees are white or colored. Race differ
ences should not make any difference.
The resolution and amendment were re-
ferred to the committee on printing.
Mr.. Hoar offered a resolution directing the
committee on elections to inquire and report
at the next session of Congress, what meas
ures are needful to secure ascertainment and
