GENERAL Howard Ia working hard
to secure an appropriation for the en-.
largement of Fort Omaha, and the
erection Of quarters and barracks suf-
ticient to accommodate ten companies of
infantry. The amount asked of con
gress is something over SIG, 600
which will purchase the necessary
land and secure the needed buildings.
Fort Omaha Is one Of the posts re-
commended by General Sheridan for
permanent occupation in the Depart

great railway centre it Is peculiarly

moved at q moments notice to
any scene where their presence il
required. A lack of energy on the
part Of Nebraska's congressional dele

prevented action on the part of con-
gress looking to Its permanent i'm

Smelling have been favored with hand
some appropriations, and both garri

ARMY LEGISLATION.

The reorganization of some portion
of the army is q topic of debate at
every congress, and the present SEES.
hion furnishes no exception to the rule.
The army appropriation bill which
passed the house contains several i'm
portant riders which will seriously
affect the service as at present organ
lied. The first 10 the abolition of the
pay corps and the transference of its
duties to the quartermaster's depart
ment. This proposition, which is
meeting with tho most violent oppo-
s%ition, ought to carry In the senate.
The duties of paymaster could easily
be performed by the quartermaster.
All that it would require would be an
additional clerk who could readily DO
taken from the army itself. AS at
present constituted the pay rolls are
made up by the company clerks and
furnished to the pay departments
which oashes the vouchers. A large
amount Of the expenditures of the
army are made through the quarter
masters department and the pay of
officers and men could easily be added.
There is however no likelihood that
this portion Of the army bill will pass
the senate. The pay depart
ment is the only branch Of
the service In which party
patronage rules. Four.6iths of the
paymasters I'VE their positions purely
to political influence. 1t is hardly TO
beYpresumed that the senate will iop
off the pegs upon which it has been in
the habit of hanging relatives, pro.
teges and friends, for the sake of a v
Ing some $500. 900 annually to the
government
Another important proposition which
has also passed the house Is, that which
sltsl down the number of aides and
limits their time of service away from
their regiments. This will meet with
general approval everywhere outside

The Philadelphia Times rises to re-.
mark that Jay Gould has evidently
fallen on an unusually cold season.
The New York courts led off by declar.
Ing his stook-watering job In connec.
ton with Western Union null and
void. Next his company was prohib-
tied from paying dividends on the sur.
plus stock. This was followed by
suits in New York, Pennsylvania and
Illinois against the Western Union for
violation of charter limitations. On
Tuesday his injunction against the
Mutual Union pool wa, dissolved, and
the suit OF Williams & Co. against the
Western Union, which wa, brouph;
to prevent the consolidation schemes,
was fixed for trial. Ga top of al
these little perplexities comes the or.
ganization # the New York legisla.

MAJ for speaker that Mr.. Gould diin't
want elected. The first days session
was signalized by the introduction O
bills requiring teleg rsph wires to b.
run under the streets, and reducin,
street car and railroad fares in Ney
York city to five cents. The ne,
speaker is sure to make up his com
mitees in the interest of these new re
forms. Mr.. Gould will probably fin
