THE pIRscr-rAx X
why the List Of Commissioners Was Not
Announced Yesterday.

Governor Mckinney did not announce
Yesterday his appointments Of commission
efs 30 distribute the direct-tax fund. but
will probably do so to-day OF tomorrow.
The law providing for the distribution
authorizes the appointment OF the trca-
surers OF the different counties and cities
as commissioners provided they are not in
arrears to the Commonwealth.
IL Is understood that the Governor has
had his last of appointments prepared for
sone time. out q few OF those on the list
have not as vet made returns for this
year 20 the Auditor. A these are good aud
faithful officers. they have been written TO
that II they desire appointment as CON-
misSioners they must settle Immediately.
Their DELAY IN settling is not regarded as
indicating negligence. This is the time Of
year for making returns, and ordinarily u
Is expected that few DAYS grace will be
allowed. It was stated on the best authori-
~ yesterday that every tFeasurer's name
on the list was 40 assurance of faithful
returns TO the Commonwealth and prompt
distribution Of the fund when be got it IN
hand.
There has been no delay IN the matter of
distributing the fund "a far as the Governor
and the Capitol officers are concerned, and
Mr. Moon and Colonel Smith have pressed
their work IS rapidly as possible. The
Governor could take no practical steps to-
wards returning the money 10 those on
titled TO 10 until the lists had been COM
pleted. Mr.. Moon arrived IN the city last
night, and nothing will be allowed to pre-
vent Che money being paIc out as o o as
possible.
