CHARITIES TO NEEDY WOMEN.
1t was learned from the treasurer of the
Central Union Mission yesterday that it had
received $500 from the Mclean fund of
$1,000 This $500 was expended for charities
TO needy women who were employed
in making garments for the poor the mate
rial, etc., being paid for out of that amount.
There is now to the credit of the Central
Union Mission another $500 available for
bills incurred. The treasurer of the Mission
has, however bills TO the amount of about
s1,OS7 which, If partly paid by the last $500
appropriated, will still leave the Mission peo-
pie $5S7 in debt
Col. John Tracey, superintendent of chari-
ties. was seen yesterday and asked not only
about this matter, but the general condition
of men without occupations in the District.
He said that the central relief committee was
by no means out of funds. In fact, tbey still
have on hand about S1.600, a disposition of
which will probably be made at the meeting
of the central committee on Saturday
Col Tracy believes that the committee is
doing all it can under the circumstances.
Last year they had the $40, 600 of the Marine
Band fund, this year they have only the
$4,000 Mclean fund. Credir. he said. should
also be given to the Municipal Lodging
House, which provides on an average each
night for about seventy persons. Application
has been made on behalf of this institution
for more storage room.
100000 FOR PUBLIC WORKS.
AS to the condition Of the unemployed
workingmen he had no practical suggestion,
but called attention to the Call bill, which
seeks to have appropriated 800, 900 for pub
lie works for this class of people. Incl
dentally il was mentioned that II the 800, 900
were, now available it would give 5000 men
work for only twenty days at 81 day EACH
Owing to the failure of relief at the. Cen
