A wEEDING-OUT PROCESS.
Investigations That Are Going on in the

Investigations That Are Going on in the
Various Governments Departments.
general plan for the betterment Of the de-
partmental service Of the government has been
agreed upon by the several heads Of the execu-
tive departments, and, when put into operation
as the result of Investigations now being made,
is expected to produce results Of radical
character. In carrying out this general plan
circular letters of instruction have been ad-
dressed to the chiefs of bureaus and divisions
in every department of the governmental
service at Washington. In general way this
letter asks all clerks, male and female, to state
their age, when appointed. whence appointed,
present grade, last promotions number OF rel
atives in Office, &C., &C., and such like ques-
tions, which. when answered. will give at
glance satisfactory history of the clerks OH
cial life. When all these questions have been
answered the appointment clerks of the several
executive departments will form themselves
into q kind of clearing house board, compare
notes and make such recommendations as the
facts in each particular case may seem to
warrant
These investigations are expected to disclose
that numerous government employees are aliens,
also that many families have from three to ten
relatives i'll government service, and that many
clerks and others now carried on the rolls are
too old and decrepid to perform efficient work
and are represented by substitutes at grsatly
reduced pay. These facts when established will
form the basis of a general reorganization all
along the line and by the ''weeding-out" pro-
cess the government service is expected to be
increased in efficiency fully 10 or l5 per cent.

Surgeon General wyman has issued a cir
cular for the general information Of officers of
the Treasury Department, setting forth the

The right is reserved by the Secre-
tary of the Treasury to terminate
any contract whenever the interests of the SER
vice require it. All relief must be furnished
in accordance with the revised regulations OF
the marine hospital service; and. in consequence
of the largely increased expenditures for relief,
and OF limited sources of income, il has be-
come necessary to give notice that, as provided
In the regulations, no allowance will be made
for expenditures incurred at any other station
than those named in this circular.
The term contagious diseases wherever oc-
curing in this circular, except as to specific
contracts made otherwise, includes only those

A cablegram was received by United States
Treasurer Morgan yesterday notifying him that
Barring, Magoun Co. had shipped s5oo, 900 of
gold to the United States. The steamer upon
which the gold was shipped ID expected to
arrive tomorrow or Saturday.
This is the first shipment Of foreign gold In
any considerable quantity to the United States
during the present month and Is looked upon
as showing that the tide in gold exports from
this country to Europe had turned.
For the past three weeks no gold has been
exported from New York to Europe. and as a
consequence Of natural accretion the Treasury
Department has been gaining gold during that
period. the net gold balance standing at e94.-

1t is expected that Secretary Herbert VIII
soon settle the celebrated case of Pay Inspector
Stevenson, which was so much trouble to his
predecessor He has promised to first give .
hearing to Mr.. Stevenson in his own behalf be-
fore acting. Mr.. Stevenson has already been
before two examining boards, both Of which
recommended his promotion. Pending the
settlement of the case promotions in the lower
grades are held up and no appointment can be
made to fill the vacancy which viii occur in the

One of the practical results Of the recent
disaster at Fords Theater building was the
prompt appointment by Secretary Lamont Of
commission Of army officers. consisting Of Quar-
termaster General Batchelder, Surgeon General
sternberg and Captain Knight Of the engineer
corps.to examine all the buildings outside of the
War Department building, occupied by branches
of that department, in order to ascertain their
safety and stability. The evident object Of the
examination was to prevent the possibility Of q
repetition Of such an accident through want Of
precaution. The army board has partially COM
pleted its work by the examination OF the
Speiden building, on street between 18th and
18th streets; the winder's annex, 610 18th
street. and the building at the corner Of 18th
and G streets, occupied by the war records
Office. The Speiden building is . government
building and is used by the War Department
as printing Office. The board reports that 1t
is perfectly safe, but recommends as a measure
Of precaution that additional supports be
placed under the printing presses on the second
floor. Suggestions are also made for improving
the ventilation of the building
wINDER BUILDING.
The building at 6l0 17th street. known a
Windners annex. is used by the record and
pension Office and contains about forty clerks.
No structural weakness was apparent in this
bull ding, but, in the interests Of economy
solely. the board recommends that it be vacated
at the expiration Of the present lease and the
clerical force now employed there be trans
ferred to the new quarters engaged for the 10th
street force Of that Office in the Union building,
on G street, now occupied by the city post
office, where there is said to be ample accom-
modations for additional clerks. The 17th
street building is owned by Mr.. John H. Clark
| and is leased to the government at 81, 400 per
annum. The present lease expires on the first
proximo, so there will be no difficulty in vacat-
ing it at once. The Union building is particu-
larly well adapted to the purposes Of the War
Department, and the erection of . few more
| fire escapes is the only Recommendation in re-
gard to it made by the army board.
The building at the corner Of 18th and G
streets has only few occupants and will not be
needed by the government very much longer,
the compilation Of the records Of the rebellion
| is nearing completion. In view of these con-
siderations the board makes no recommenda
tion in regard to this building. The only other
| building to be examined by the board il the
Army Medical Museum, and az that is a new
| building, constructed to bear the greatest pos
sible weight, it is not likely that the board will
| find 1t necessary to suggest any changes to in
sure the stability and security Of the building.
The report of the board was submitted to
Secretary Lamont yesterday. He will un-
doubtedly approve its recommendations. e.

A Way May Be Found Of Bringing Il
Trolley Company to Terms.

A Way May BE Found Of Bringing the
Trolley Company to Terms.
1t seems after all there is reasonable ground
for the belief that the operations Of the trolley
road on the battlefield of Gettysburg may vet
be checked whenever they are harmful or de-
structive Of points OF interest and that this de-
sirable end may be peacefully accomplished.
The report Of Mr.. Batchelder, one Of the
members of the Gettysburg battlefield commits
sion, strongly recommended interference by
the government, but after thorough examina-
ton the legal officers Of the War Department
have concluded that the government can do
nothing whatever, either now or after July
next, to check the vandalistic tendencies of the
electric company. The question may ulti-
mately be referred to the Attorney General.
with view to affording him an opportunity to
discover an opening for governmental inter-
ference for the preservation Of the historic
groundA
A CONFERENCE IN JULY.
The Gettysburg Battlefield Association will
meet at Gettysburg on July 2, and it is prob
able that the national commission will also
meet there about the same time. This will
bring the association aud the commission to-
gether for the first time, and there may be op-
portunity for full conference, with the probable
ity of accomplishing something toward bringing
the trolley company to terms. At least that ID
the idea of Col John P. Nicholson, president
of the national commission.
1t appears that the battlefield association
controls directly or indirectly certain privileges
that may be Of great value to the railroad COM
pany and it is hoped that some Of these, with
the consent Of the association may be given to
the railroad company in return for concessions
on its part in such matters. slight change
might be made in the location Of certain parts
of the trolley line that at present would inter-
fere seriously with the historical associations Of
the battlefield.
WHAT THE LINE HAS DONE.
For instance. it appears that the railroad has
inadvertently run its line across a small plot of
ground purchased and held by a New York regi
ment for the purpose Of erecting q monument
The road can be dispossessed Of this ground
and, moreover, it cannot pass on either side
without the consent Of the association, so that
here also is fair ground for compromise, not tc
touch upon many other considerations that may
arise az reasons for an amicable settlement oi
the question at issue between the trolley com
pany on one side and the United States. the
state Of Pennsylvania and the Battlefield Asso
