The aggregate amount of Court expenses psId during the year was S2,S74,73 The Attorney General suggests the sd- visibility of building jails at each place in the country where United States Courts are held, and the necessity of the building Of government peuitenti- ary, where all persons convicted of of- lenses against the United States could be confined, Is strongly urged. Such convicts, he says, could be employed in the manufacture of supplies exclusively for the Government, which work would assist m making the institution self sustaining. lie also suggests the pro priety of erecting n grounds adjoining the Department of Justice a proper OuIlding for the accommodation, IT ad- diti,.n to that Department, of the Su- preme Court and other proper Courts Commissions oi the United States.
 The Attorney General makes a num- Der of other recommendations, among which are the following: That the fees of Marshals in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming be doubled; that the salaries Dt Marshals oe revised; that the com uensation Ot United States Attorneys for New Mexico anu ArizOna be in creass d, and that the compensation of clerks Of the United States !'ourta in California be reGaced. thss Attorneys and MArshsls be required to make re- turns by fiscal instead of cal endar years; that the accounts pt the Chef Supervisors of Elec- tion be taken into open court, uu der the inspection of the District At torney; that the penalty for the punish ment of persons resisting officers be made more severe; that increased pro- visions be made for the protection of United States witnesses, and that a suit able United States jail be built at Fort Smith, Arkansas.
