MAKING GREENBACKS.
Report of the Chief Of the Bureau OF
Engraving and Printing.

The report.of Captain William n. Mere
dith, Chief Of the United States Bureau OF
Engraving and Printing, for the last fiscal
year, says that it was decided, on account Of
the restrictions imposed upon their use by
Congress, to discontinue permanently the
use Of steam presses in plate printing. The
bureau intended to gradually substitute the
use Of hand presses for the steam presses, out
was unable to execute contract, on the
terms specified by Congress, with the owners
Of the steam presses. Some inconvenience
was caused thereby, and by extensive preva'
lence of the s'grip" in the winter; but by
working the force overtime for an hour to an
hour and a half daily, the Bureau was en-
ab,ed to meet all the demands uponSt with.
out serious embarrassment to the operations
Of the Government, every sheet Of work &C.
tually needed in the public business being
furnished. The expenditures during the
year were 81, ,010, $40, leaving an unespended
balance Of $7l79 on hand at the close OF the
fiscal year. There were completed and de-
livered during the year s,702,32O sheets OF
United States notes, gold and silver certln-
Gates, bonds and National banknotes with a
face value of 1927, ,5s3 05O; 26,6l0 0SS sheets OF
internal revenue and customs stamps, con-
tanning 757, ,002, OLE stamps; 1,200, ,3l1 sheets
of drafts, checks, certificates, etc., besides a
large amount of miscellaneous work for the
various departments Of the Government.
The amount Of work to be executed during
the fiscal year 1891 is nearly fifteen per cent.
greater than the amount delivered during
the year 1890, and nearly eight per cent.
greater than the amount executed during the
year 1889, in which were made the largest
deliveries during a period Of thirteen years.
The bureau expects to meet all demands
promptly.

THE REVENUE MARINE.
Report on the Operations of This
Branch Of the Service

Report on the Operations of This
Branch Of the Service.
Captain Shepard, Chief Of the Revenue
Marine Division, has made report to the
Secretary of the Treasury of the operations
of that service during the last fiscal year,
from which it appears that the thirty-si1
vessels in commission traversed 2SS liz nau-
.tical miles, and boarded and examined %, 16l
vessels, of which number 9l5 were found to
have violated the law and to have incurred
fines and penalties amounting to 1896, GIG.
Eighty distressed vessels were assisted the
value of which, together with their car goes,
amounted to q, SOC, 900. Forty-three persons
were rescued from drowning, and S11 were
assisted in other ways The expenditures on
account Of the services were $685., ,033, of
which S17, ,272 were spent in marking the an
chorage lines of New York harbor. Captain
Shepard says that the Manhattan is not able
to perform efficiently the duties assigned to
her of enforcing the anchorage regulations
at New York, and should be replaced at an
early date by larger and more powerful
steamer. All revenue vessels cruising in Alas
kan waters the last season, Captain Shepard
SAYS, were directed to enforce the provisions
of the act Of Congress approved March 2,
1880, relating to the protection Of the salmon
fisheries of Alaska. He says that several
new vessels are required for the proper main
tenance of the service, and that unless the
present feet is enlarged it will gradually be-
come debilitated. The rapidly increasing
commerce at the ports of Boston. New York,
Philadelphia. Chicago and San Francisco de-
mands that new steamers of moderate cost
be furnished at each Of these ports within
the next two years to replace vessels nearly
worn out and not suitable for the service
The greatly increased work required on the
Pacific coast makes another vessel for duty
On that station absolutely necessary.

THROUGH A TRESTLE.
Disastrous and Fatal Wreck Near
Salem, Oregon.

Shortly after $50 o'clock on recent night
the overland Pacific train, southbound, went
on to the north end Of q long trestle over
Lake Labish, about five miles from Salem,
Oregon. The trestle must have given
way as soon as the engine struck it,
and the train and trestle all went
down together. The engine was over
turned and half buried in the mud, and fol-
lowing this were the tender, mail, baggage
and express cars, smoking car and tourist
sleeper. All were broken to pieces. The fol-
lowing is list of the killed: McFadden, =,
engineer; McNeal, Timothy, fireman; two
unknown men; C. Griebel, Of Milwaukee,
Wis, making five dead in all.
The total number of deaths from the acci-
dent will probably reach as high as ten, as
many may have sustained what, it Is feared,
would prove serious internal injuries. The
train carried over 100 persons, nearly all OF
whom were more orless injured.
The bridge is about 900 feet long and from
sixteen to twenty feet high. 1t Is supposed
that the engineer felt the trestle give way
as soon as his engine struck 1t. He gave one
short whistle and set the brakes The train
moved ahead about fifty yards as 1t went
down.
Fires vera built along either side IT the
train to warm the wounded who had been
removed from the wreck, and to light the
way Of the workers who had fastened to the
rescue from Salem, Oregon, and vicinity:
Laid out on the ground were the mangled
corpses recovered from the wreck; reclining
OF the improvised beds about the fires were
the wounded, while standing about, lending
what assistance they could, were those less
seriously wounded, and around these and
everywhere were the crowds who had come
to heip or from curiosity.

tion was the banquet rendered to him at Co

ducts of the hothouse, while above all
lowered majestic palms and fragrant e1otics.
The orchestra was hidden from view in a
mass Of foliage, in turn surrounded with q
curtain Of smflax. At the southern end of
the hall, upon platform heaped with palms
and roses In bloom, were crayon
portraiture statues of ex-President Cleve-
land and the especial guest Of the
evening. The table of honor rested upon
a platform running half the length
OF the hall. Longitudinal with this there
were sixteen tables, each with accommoda-
ton for eighty guests seated vis-a-vis Every

tent to view the proceedings from the gal
lery.

J. Lentz Of the Thurman Club, appeared

cupied in discussing the elaborate menu. 1t
was after 10 o'clock when President Lentz
raped for order, and in a few well chosen
words proposed the toast Of sour Guest"
Mr.. Thurman, on rising to respond, was
greeted with applause, which lasted several
moments.
The announcement of the next toast, "Cit-
