COMMISSIONER DUDLKY's EsrIMA TEs LESS THIS YEAR
THAN LAsT-PoINTs FROM HIS FORTHCOMING AN
NCAL REPORT.
Col Dudley, the Commissioner OF Pensions, told
STAR reporter to-day that he was engaged In
preparing his annual report, and from the data
now In his possession he thought that his esti-
mates for the next year would be much less than
last. OF the one hundred millions appropriated
for last year, there would be about thirty-nine
millions left In the Treasury. large number OF
cases had been examined, but many OF these had
been passed over. He would recommend that the
force OF clerks in the field be Increased and the
Office force decreased, making a total reduction In
the present force OF about $50 clerks This reluc-
ton was mainly caused by the efficiency OF the
force, which enabled a smaller number to handle q
larger volume OF work
