FAREWELL RED TAPE.
Senate Committees Trying to
Simplify Department
Work.
The Present Absurd Methods
of Attending to Public
Business.
The Aqueduet Tunnel In
vestigation Still In
Progress.
How Defective Work Was
Concealed by the
Contractors.

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator
Cockrell, chairman of the select COM
mittee on the business methods OF the
executive department, to-day submitted
to the senate second report. The COM
mittee. in previous report, suggested
as the most feasible and practical
remedy for the defective methods of
business that the secretaries of the
treasury and war should appoint COM
missions in their respective depart
mentS TO consider and revise the method
of business. These commissions were
afterward appointed and their reports,
which were transmitted to the commit
tee were laid before the senate to-day
as a part of the committees report.
Secretary Fairchild. in a letter dated
Jan. Is last. says: 1.-The commission
has reported to him from time to time
recommendations, which he has caused
to be put into operation, or which have
been adopted by the bureau officers Of
their own notion" The commission
also suggested the adoption Of system
of accounts with officers OF United
States courts: discOntinuance of hand
copying in record books of all letters
written and the substitution therefor OF
press copies or carbon duplicates; the
destruction of useless file matter;
supervision of lighthouse service
and accounts by special agents;
the settlement Of all the
accounts of aided railroad companies by
one auditor and comptroller; the extern
sion into every branch Of the public
service of payments by disburslng
clerks, instead of by settlement ON sepa..
rate accounts, and the prohibition OF
al
committee indorses the recommendation
of the commission for discOntinuance
of hand copying into record books OF all
letters written and the substitution
therefor of press copies or carbon dupll-
Gates, and also the recommendation or
the treasury commission for the settle
ment of all the accounts of aided rail-
road companies by one auditor and
comptroller. The committee quotes
the following passage from the com-
MISSIONS report in regard to ac-
counts of aided railroads. "At pres
ent these transportation accounts are
settled by several auditors and all three
of the eomptrolling officers OF the treas
ury department. The result has been
that the balances have been declared
from entirely different standpoints and
upon different rulings of the several Of
fees" There is a great deal of useless
and unnecessary red tape in the dis
patch of certain work IN the war de-
partment, the committee says, and by
way of illustration shows that one spec
ified case was handled by officers and
clerks seventy-six times, and including
messenger service, ninety-four times.
The committee in concluding its report
says that while it has not accomplished
all that it desired, yet it hopes that the
good work already begun will be more
Successfully and perfectly carried out

lures Of the executive departments re-

THE AQUEDUCT CASE.
Workmen Tell How and why Bad
Work Was Done.

WASHINGTON, March 2s.-The Ly-
decker court-martial opened to-day with
Robert Condor upon the witness stand.
He was not stone mason but had been
employed to pack the tunnel. Work
was hurried along by order of his en-
ployer, which accounted for its bad
quality in many cases. Thomas
Davis. a stonemason, told how nice
little bulkheads were built to conceal
bad work and how guide always gave
warning of the approach of Lieut..
Townsend or Col. Kirlin. If Maj.
Lydecker had visited the tunnel
daily the men could not have
done half as much bad work
as they did. Emery, the sub-contractor.
gave orders to do bad work and quar-
relied with the sub-inspectors upon the
subject. He had told witness that if he
persisted in doing good work that he
would break up the company and had
another man to instruct witness how TO
do bad work. Thomas OBrien. SUBJ
inspector, testified that he had received
81 a day extra pay from the contractors
in addition to his salary from the gov
ernment. This was for keeping the
time of the men. He figured on the
pay rolls under fictitious name.
Major Lydecker did not go through
the tunnel while witness was there.

CLARKSON EXPLAINS
Why He Is Playing Havoc With
Fourth-Class Postmasters.

Fourth Glass POStm aSterS.
WAsH1NGToN, March 2s.-Gen. Clark
son the first assistant postmaster-gen-
eral. was Questioned to-day concerning
certain newspaper criticisms directed
against his policy in the appointment of
fourth-class postmasters. In answer
he said that practically all of the
changes thus far have been made for
other than political reasons. A large
number of the appointments made dur
ing the last administration were
VIGOROUSLY bad, and a consider
able number had been found to
be delinquent in their accounts.
Other changes had been made in order
to secure better locations for the offices,
and in many cases appointments had
been made with a view to the removal
of the offices from the vicinity of
saloons. In every case of removal there
had been good and sufficient cause
therefor. Perhaps" he added. cit is
not generally known that my prede-
cessor, within the month or six weeks
prior to the 4th of March. made over a
thousand appointments OF fourth
class postmaSterS for the pur-
pose. apparently, of forcing them
upon this administration. This
course had never been pursued to my
knowledge by any previous administra
ton. During the last several weeks of
President Arthur'S term not single
fourth-class postmaster was appointed
except in rare instances where the eXi-
gencies of the service demanded it, and
when Postmaster General Hatton re-
signed there were more than 5000 resig-
nations on file in his Office. The COM
missions of the thousand appointees of
my predecessor were, of course. with
held, and these vacancies. with others.
are now being filed as rapidly as pos
sible."

Separation, kidnapping and a
Suit for Divorce.

Suit for Divorce.
Special to the Globe.
MASON CITY, March 2s.-A highly SEN
sational divorce case has been occupy
ing the attention of Judge Ruddick's
court this week. Seven years ago Fred
81. McEwen became infatuated by the
winning ways of Miss Clara j. Sprague,
daughter of eX-Supervisor II. D.
Sprague. of Floyd county, and married
her. They moved to the little village
of Floyd. where they lived happily for
a time, the home circle being made
cheerful by the birth of a daughter.
But soon jealousy sprung up, which in
July. 1887, eliminated in separation.
Mr.. McEYen Immediately left for Mt.
Vernon, Dak. while his wife took her
child and went to live with her parents.
She remained home about two months,
then went to Rockford, where she went
into the dressmaking business. In De-
cember, 'ST, Vern ID. Cutler, prOmi-
nent farmer Of this county, and who is
conspicuous figure in the case, mutually
agreed with his wife upon separation,
and when the day came he took her to
Rockford. and, seeing her garb was not
of the best, went with her to Mrs. Nc
Ewen's establishment. where a new at
tire throughout was ordered. and the
wife went her way. Cutter was there
after very frequentVisitor of Mrs. Nc
Even. She soon quit the dressmaking
business and went back to her fathers
to live. Cutler followed her. and about
the 1st of March, 'SS, he hired her to
keeg house for him. McEWen was

Makeup of Committees.


Makeup Of Committees.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-In the SEN
ate to-day Mr.. Sherman offered resolu-
tion, which went over, for the appoint
ment of two senators to wait upon the
president to ascertain if he has any
other business to lay before the senate.
Mr.. Cockrell, from the select committee
to inquire into the methods of business
IN the executive departments of the
government, made a final report, to-
gether with statement in regard to the
condition of the business in some
branches of the public service. The
report was laid on the table. Senators
Cullom and Gibson were appointed as
regents of the Smithsonian inStitu-
ton to fill vacancies. Mr.. Call
offered resolution declaring: First,

ence to the equality of states and

affairs, Judiciary, foreign relations,
finance, postofflce, public lands, COM
merce, Interstate commerce, until every

of them. Third, that seniority of serv-
ice shall give preference in the assign
ment of committees, unless ortherwise
