An Order to Protect Treasury Clerks Again

An Order to Protect Treasury Clerks Against
tho Ten-Per-cent. Shavers.
WARRINGTON. Oct The order Just issued
by Secretary Foster. providing for the pay
mont Of the employees Of the department every
week instead oftwice month. as has been the
custom. is intended to protect them against 10
per cent month shavers. Many Of the en-
ployees Of tho Government here are in debt to
greater or less extent to these bloodsuckers.
who are willing to run the risk Of advancing
them small sums OF money without security at
10 per cent month. There are very few
clerks who can 60 to any straight business
man or firm and borrow $50 or 500 without
security. though there Is q reasonable
certainty that not one out Of 500
would fail to meet the obligation. Therefore.
lending money to clerks who are temporarily
embarrassed has grown to be very profitable
business with certain brokers who are not
afraid to take the risk. The profits on the
loans are 80 great that an occasional loss
makes no on the business Where
clerk he makes q thousand on the rest II a
clerk neyer pays back the money borrowed the
times the principal before no works hin sell up
to the point Of repudiating the debt The result
Is that the clerks pay dearly for any extrava.

A correspondent who properly Identifies

In regard to Mr.. FAssErr's and Mr..
PLArrs connection with the Job In ques-

that TAssErT did not know what

good faith toward New York in Mr..

Congressman WALLACE Is right when he
says that the location Of the Fair was de-

the men responsible for that monstrous de-
cision were tho Hon. THOMAS @. PLATT and
