The Committee on Agriculture.

WASHINGTON, Feb. Is.
The House committee on agriculture adopt
ed the report of the subcommittee upon the
proposition to make the agricultural depart
ment an executive one, and instructed Ander-
son to report favorably to the House, at the
next call of the committee.
The Committee ON Pensions.
The House committee on pensions instruct
ed Marsh, chairman, to report to the House
the following resolutions: Resolved, That
the committee on military affairs be instruct
ed to report to this House what legislation, if
any, is necessary to increase the efficiency of
the adjutant generals office so as to secure
more prompt attention to the requests for in
formation made by the pensions committee
and other authorized persons, respecting the
military history Of persons applying to Con-
gress for relief. The resolutions were sub
sequently introduced in the House.
A Rumor.
1t is stated that the subpGnas served upon
several witnesses for the prosecution in the
star route cases, purporting to bear the sig
nature of the clerk of court, were not signed
by that person at all. The presumption is
that they were issued by parties connected
with the conduct of the investigation without
taking the trouble to have them properly
signed by the clerk of court. How many
have been sent forth in this manner is un-
known.
