DECIDING A QUESTION OF INTEREST TO BID
DERs.-The Secretary of the Navy to-day de.
cided question of interest to bidders on navy
and departmental supplies. With relation to
the application OF certain bidders to correct or
it, the Secretary holds that it would be an exere
else OF extraordinary power on his part to
permit the withdrawal or change of the propo-
sal after the acceptance by the department of
the bid and before the execution of the con-
tract, although the proposal of the bidder may
contain manifest error. The Secretary SAYS:
"!he proposal and its acceptance of course con-
stltute q contract in law, and doubt my power

The chief OF the board of review OF the Pension
office has made suggestion To the commits.
sioner which will probably be adopted. He rec.
ommends that the Driefing OF applications Cor
pensions required be done away with, and that
the affidavits be placed in alphabetical order Ina
a book for easy reference. lie also suggests
that the rule requiring report from
postmasters upon the credibility of witnesses
be changed SO as to leave il within the dscrc-
information or not. These changes sugge
ted for the purpose OF facilitating the business
OF the office, as IL is the experience of the e.
aminers that much time Is necdlessly wasted
in briefing cases. and that In the majority ~
cases there Is no necessity for inquiring INTO the
credibliiy nj witnesses. When necessary To bo
done, the examiner can ask for such informu-
ton. There is no intention I'm these changes To
impair the restrictions which now surround tho
granting OF pensions.

New YORK. October 31.-The of3cars -

rom them similar action. This is the
result OF an adjustment which these officers
nave reached on the basis first agreed upon
WITH MIL the Tribune during the heighth of the
Blame campaign in September, 1884, but
afterwards rejected by the Typoeraphical
Union themselves. The Tribune remainq
out OF the Union as it has been for nine
years past, works under it's own rules and
regulations, with it's old foreman, and
makes absolutely no change among it's

remain so: 1t agrees to continue
paying the present wages to
It's weekly hands, which are in
nearly all cases above the Union SCALE and
to advance its rate of composition to for
ty-six cents per thousand. This is the price
named in the memorandum to which
it agreed last year but which the
Union afterwards rejected. In speech to
his men this afternoon announcing the ar
rangement, Whitelaw Reid thanked them
Tor their conduct to their employer during
the long struggle, and said that in consider

more than the Union asked or had agreed
to do year ago. He. therefore, advanced

among the other newspapers for return
to forty cents per thousand, and this was
their reason for accepting the terms they
rejected year ago and being williog now to
adjust their difficulties with the Tribune on

HALIFAX, October 31.-R. I. Stupart, the
Hudson Bay observer, who, Wi h three
ASSISTANTS, abandoned his station at Stu
parts bay the day before the steamer
''Alert' reached there, arrived in Halifax
this evening on the steamer ''Mirandi"
from St. Johns, N. F. Stupart gives an in
teresting account OF the experience he and
his three companions met with after leav-
ing their post. The men with him were J..
W. Mcdaniel and J. w. Chaplain, OF St..
Marys, N. S., and Harry Bennett, of ST..
Johns, N. F. Each observing station in the
strait was furnished with eighteen months
ceived nothing additional for the fourth
man in his party. The consequence was
that by the Goth OF August they found
themselves with very small quantity OF
supplies left, and the country around
affording no support for white
men, they were compelled to make
d move for other quarters. The Esquimaux
were suffering for food because OF the failure
OF the fisheries, and he gave them what he
could spare. On August 21st all four left
their post in an open sail boat, taking with
them twenty-pounds OF meat and a barrel
and half of biscuit, and started for I'm
gaga Bay. After voyage OF thirteen days,
made under the most dangerous and un-
comfortable circumstances, the little party
reached their destination. At Fort Cline
they boarded the steamer Labrador" for
Rigolet, which they reached on September
2Sth. Thence they went one days journey
in q sail boat to Indian Harbor. On Octo-
Der 23d the steamer Hercules" took them
to Grady, and they came thence to Harbor
Grace, n. F., on the steamer Vanguard"
arriving last Tuesday.
