CAPITOL GLEANINGs AND NOTES.

WASHINGTON, December 1.-Secretary
Chandler is so busy in the preparation OF
his report that he has no time to devote to
devote to politics. He is rapid worker
and sometimes does as much in one day as
Hunt did in a week.
He is layiRg his plans to get from Con-
greSs some s., ,OOO, 900 toward finishing
Robeson's Monitors
and building two steel cruisers. A few
days ago tuere met at the Navy Department
representatives of several shipbuilding
firms. Chandler was eloseted all day with
them. They figured, and Chandler, with
little stab pencil, figured, and they at length
gave him some bids. The Secretary has in
his control large sum appropriated at the
last session of Congress for launching the
Robson monitors, which haye been rusting
for some years on the stocks. Mr.. Chand-
Ter thought it would be fair to give these
ship-builders to whom Robeson gave the
original contracts the first chance to make
proposals to the department for Carrying
on the work. After the Secretary's old
friend, Roach, and his old friend, Cramp,
and Mr.. Gauze, of Wilmington, finished
their figuring, he carried the estimate into
an inner room. Then he lookout his pen-
Gil and began 10 figure. The Secretary can
figure almost as fast as Zenas Colburn used
10. He kept the distinguished shipbuilders
waiting only little while before he re-
turned.
Gentlemen" said he in his quick way,
~ can't accept these bids. They are in a
lump sum. ItwoR't do. Congress and the
press are watching this matter, and they
will make fuss il accept the estimates
in lump. You must make them out in
detail"
The shipbuilders folded up their esti-
mates, and said they would send him such
as he wished.
Secretary Chandler means to get the full
amount from Congress this wiRter. He
will bring
The Pressure OF His Department,
his personal influence. and that of the
administration to bear to secure il. The
President agrees with him. Chandler's
superior qualifications as lobbyist will be
brought TO bear, and he intends that his
scheme shall be let severely alone by
Robson, but be champiOned by men
whom Congress respects. He wants S7,OOO,-
OOO and he has boldly put that sum in his
estimates. That is the reason why the
estimates for the Navy Department bounce
from the last year to So, 900, 900 this. The
Secretary says that he wants $2,0S0,0O0 to
build the two steel cruisers, he wants
s., 100000 to complete the four double
turreted monitors and he wants s., 965 O0O
to complete the machinery OF the double
turreted monitors and the two steel cruisers.

The Last OF the Mohicans.

Norwich, CoNN., December l.-"Samuel
Brushed. the last descendant in direct
line of Uncas, the chief of the Mohican In
dams, who occupied this country when it
was first settled by the whites, 200 years
ago, died Tuesday. Brushed was 81 years
of age poor, addicted to drink, ugly and
deformed, but he was the only Indian OF
royal blood living here, and also the only
one of pure blood, a fact upon which
he greatly prided himself. A
month ago he fell from an apple;
tree while pruning the buds and injured
his spine so that he knew he could not live.
He expressed a wish that upon his death
the flags of the city should be displayed at
half-mast out of respect for his high Indian
rank. He leaves a widow. Brushell has
for years been a feature at country fairs.
He was dextrous in playing reeds. his
funeral was from the Norwich town
chapel, and was at the expense OF private
citizen. The coffin was wrapped about
with large American flag. None OF his
fellow members of the Mohican tribe, who
occupy a reservation on the west bank OF
the Thames river, were present. The in
terment took place in binding snow
storm and was very impressive,

The GARFIELD CLAIMS.
The Garfield Board OF Audit Ends Its
work.

WASHINGTON, December 1.-The Board
appointed to examine the claims presented
for services rendered to President Garfield
has completed its work. The amount ap-
propriated to satisfy the claims was ST.
500, aud the law explicitly provided that
the doctors bills should not exceed $S5, 500
of this amount. The claims of the physi-
clans runs up in the neighborhoOd of $780,
coo, and since it became known that their
original expectation would not be fulfilled,
there has been considerable lobbying. by
some of them to win the favor Of the Board
for their individual claims. The only
claim put in for railroad transportation was
by the Central Railroad of New Jersey,
which asked s., 900 for transportation aud
the laying of track between Elberon Sta
ton aud FrancklyR cottage. This charge
the railroad officers regarded as very rea-
sonable, and their excuse for presenting
any bill was that the road being in the
hands of receiver it was required by law
that charge should be made for every
service rendered. Members of the board re-
fuse to give any information as to their

The CIVIL SERVICE.
What the Republicans Propose 10 Do
The Pendleton Bill.


The PendletOn Bill.
WASHINGTON, December THE leaders
on the Republican side OF the House intend
TO press for passage a civil service reform
bill in some form this session. What the
bill will be has not been developed. A
large number of bills have been introduced
on this subject in both the Senate and the
House, and in the former body bill known
as the Pendleton bill was reported by
the Committee on Civil Service Re
form, but the bill has not
vet been considered. Among the bills
introduced in the House were those by
Nessrs Calkins, Willis, Chalmers, and Cur
tin. These bills are now pending in the
House Committee on Civil Service Reform,
of which Mr.. 0rth, of Indiana, is Chairman.
The other members of this committee are
Messrs. Hasson, of Iowa, Horr, OF Michi-
gan, Briggs, of New Hampshire, Neal, OF
Ohio, Hubbell, of Michigan, Butterworth,
of Ohio, House, of Tennessee, Tucker, OF
Virginia, Phelps, of Connecticut and Cur
tin, of Pennsylvania. No report has been
made by this committee. Leading Repuo-
lican members say that something must
be done in regard TO this measure this
winter, and it is probable, in order to in
subject, that an effort will be
made to incorporate a civil-seryice reform
clause in the legislative, executive, and
judicial appropriation bill, which appro-
priates money for the salaries OF all the
emplOyes of the Government. That mat
ter, il is said, is now under consideration,
and il Is not improbable that motion Will
be made early in the session to discharge
the Committee on Ciyil-Serylce Reform
nf Nba ra-
ferred to it and refer all Of them to the
Committee on Appropriations.
The people are CIamorous for such action
on the part of Congress, and it is inpera-
tive that something should be done IN the
direction indicated, and no member Will
dare to vote against the measure.
The PendIetOn Hill,
pendipg in the Senate, meets with good
deal OF favor, but il will not probably be
adOpted by the House Committee, Tor the
reason that il does not go as far as some
radical reformers on the Committee desire,
and that the principle on a civil service re-
form commission, for which it provides,
will probably not be receptacle to ma
iority of the Committe. This commission,
the Pendleton bill provides, shall be
composed of five persons OF differ
ent political parties, OF whom
three shall hold no other ofhcial
place, and two shall be experienced in the
public service. This commission shall
have the supervision of all matters per-
tanning 10 the civil service, and shall make
an annual report to the President for sub
mission to Congress. They shall have
charge of all appointments and promo
-tions, which shall be made after competi.
tive examinations. The effect OF this bill
would be to take from Congressman the
privilege Of recommending appointments
and otherwise controlling the service. II
would, in a measure, remove the political
character of the public service.

A PreMiRet Pittsburgh Physician a
Victim of COnfideAce Game.

PIr7sBURGH, December IA check given
by DR.. Pollock some tina ago came from
a New York bank to this city for collection,
payment of which the doctor has en-
deavOred to stop and the matter has gone
to court. DR.. Polloek's checks are ex-
cellent paper, as is we'll known, and how it
comes there is a dispute about this one
runs as follows:
While in New York some time ago the
doctor met a young man who claimed to be
a son of President Berry, OF the Citizens
National Bank of Pittsburgh. They
strolled into a gaming place, and the young
man, it seems, first played well but after
ward lost heavily, and the doctor kindly
offered loan, and this being swallowed up
drew a check for 81, 200.
AS the doctor took the train for home
and as he sped over the country an uneasy
feeling took possession of him that all was
not right. Upon reaching this city he in
Quired at the bank concerning Mr.. Berry's
son, and was informed by that gentleman
that he had no son. DR.. Pollock then
stopped the payment of the check. When
it came on it was sent back, and, as stated
was then returned here for collection as it
had been cashed by a bank in New York.
