Secretary Carlisle has made it a
rule to see everybody that called on
him at his office until this week, when
after much deliberation he came to
the conclusion that his promiscuous
callers were taking up SO much of the
time that should be devoted TO weight
Ter matters that it was his duty to
follow the Presidents example and
deny himself to general callers, and
an announcement to that effect was
made. 1t is easy enough to see Sec
rotary Carlisle if your business is of a
public nature, but otherwise you can
not. Theoretically it seems hard on
some of his callers, practically there
was no other course left for him to
take. In the present state of the
country the official duties of the Sec
rotary of the Treasury are of the
highest Importance, more depending
directly upon him than upon any
other member of the cabinet, and
John Griffin Carlisle has never shirk-
ed or neglected his duty, although he
has often found it, as he probably
does in this case, more or less painful
to perform.

Commissioner of Pensions Lochren
has decided after mature considera-
ton, that to carry out his policy sue
cessfully in the Pension bureau he
must have new chiefs in every divis-
ion in the office, and the present
chiefs, some of whom are VIGOROUSLY
inefficient, will all have to go, Some
of them who have made fairly good
records will be allowed to remain as
clerks. Some of these chiefs, although
they are Republicans, have influential
Democrats trying to save their official
heads, but Judge Lochren says he
intends to put the Office upon what he
considers strictly business basis and
that no amount of influence will
change his purpose. s

That inexperienced young man."
Comptroller of Currency Eckels, is
very vigorously administering the
business connected with his Office.
He says he intends to put a stop to
national banks being used to bolster
up outside wildcat financial schemes
that would have no standing or credit
whatever were it not for their sup
posed connection with national banks.
Nobody knows better than Mr.. Eckels
that it is big contract that he has
undertaken, but if he succeeds he will
certainly be a popular man with the
solid business interests of the country
which are naturally opposed to the
dummy mushroom financial concerns
that always do so much to demoralize
legitimate business. Mr.. Eckels en-
phasized his position on this question
by telling Mr.. E. A. Means, the Presi-
dent of two North Dakota banks that
failed this week, who called on him to
say that he expected both banks
would resume business, that the banks
would not be permitted to resume,
and further that no national bank
with which he (Means) was connect
ed would be allowed to begin bust
ness hereafter.
