treasury, has made report to Acting Secretary
Fairchild Of the work performed in his office
during the year ended May 81, 1886, under his
administration as compared with the work

accounts examined and revised; an increase
of Sl1S,06l, 1906 in the amount Of claims
and accounts adjusted; and an increase of
nearly 100 per cent. In the number Of vouchers

crease in the number on hand at the close OF
the year, The force of clerks, messengers, So,
employed was also less by ten than during the
previous year. and further reduction Of ten Is
promised on the list proximo. It is estimated
that there will be balance of &, 900 In the APP
propriations for the Office at the end of the cur
rent fiscal year. The estimate of appropriations
for the next fiscal year shows a decrease of
sl2,2s0. The monthly average of adjusted

hind, has been brought up to as recent date

A Few Words In Defense of Comm is
siOner BLACK.

EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,: Was 1t
supposed that Gen. Black on taking charge Of
bureau containing 1900 Republican employees
would make any further appointments from
that party? Has he not been conservatism
itself In the matter of removals. Has not his
record as commissioner demonstrated the
wisdom of his appointment Are not the dis
posnls for 1888 ahead 10y far of all previous
years2 Does not this speak volumes in favor
of his energy and methods? Literally laying
both his arms upon the altar of his country at
twenty-five is he not entitled TO more consd-
Grafton than he has received at the hands of a
bitter partisan press? This Is not written by
one who has any favors to ask, but simply In
justice 10 much abused but conscientious
and able officer. One example will illustrate
The act of March ~, 1885, increased the pen
sion Of 90 600 persons from IS TO SO per month.
Ordinarily this work would have dawdled
along for years besides clogging the machinery
OF the office and retardlng action In thousands
of accumulated cases; on June 4, these PEN
sions had all been increased and were ready
for payment at the respective agencies, n thing
without precedent in the history of the office.
] think any one can see that the office IS fast
becoming a place of business instead OF a
refuge for incompetents Yours.

The company Issued notes in March last for the

which, becoming due Saturday, 1t was unable
to pay, and the notes were protested. Post
master Conger. president of the company,
visited Alexandria last Saturday and paid on
the employees. The failure of the company Is
attributed to the recent rainy weather, which
greatly interfered with the manufacture of
bricks, and TO the depression in the building
trade caused by the existing labor troubles.

The sensation Of the discovery of the dead

subsidized when another came on top of It,
and now excitement in that section Of
Montgomery county and about Rockville
is intense. 1t was that Of an attempt made
by notorious colored rough TO outrage q
highly respected young colored woman,
living near Rockville, last Friday evening.
AS the culpritb has not been arrested HIS name,
as also that of the young woman, could not
be learned from Sheriff Miller, who fur
nished the information. The young
woman was stopped by the scoundrel on the
road to Rockville, where she was knocked
down by him. Her terrible struggle with
the fellow is apparent by the bruises she
received about her face and head. When
the affair became known In Rockville the
people became very indignant. Securing
parties went in search Of the rascal, but
failed to find him. He is well known, aud
will likely be arrested very soon.
