BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS.
Col. Wilson's Report of Operations
During Last Month.

Col John NJ Wilson has made a report
to Gen. Casey. chief of engineers, of oper-
ations on public buildings and grounds
during the month of January. Minor re-
pairs were made to the roof and heating
apparatus of the White House and some
additions were made to the tableware for
use at state dinners. The Washington
monument was maintained in good condi-
tion. During the month 1O.706 persons
ascended to the top of the shaft, 1852 by
the elevator, and 2,754 by the stairway,
making a total of 1,O45,OO9 persons who
have assembled the monument since 1t vas
first opened to the public. on October 0,
1855. The sum of sG46 was expended dur
ing the month for the removal Of snow
from the paths and sidewalks of the va
riouS public reservations. These walks
cover q distance of about thirty miles, and
an area of about forty-two acres. They
have to be cleaned after every snow storm.
More than one-half the appropriation for
this purpose was expended during the past
month.
Considerable vandalism is reported to
have occurred during the month in the
park at the entrance of lst street and Del
aware avenue, and in other public parks.
Benches were broken and removed and the
chain posts badly damaged in several in
stances. Col. Wilson says that these acts
are purely malicious mischief. The pedes-
tai Of the statue of Gen, Greene in Stan
ton Park, which was badly stained, has
been cleaned, under the direction of Mr.. ].
d. Free without expense to the United
States.
Fair progress is reported in the work
of repairing and enlarging the government
printing Office. under the supervision of
Col. Wilson. He says that every effort has
been made to push forward this work dur
ing the month and that every moment was
used during which brick could be laid
Owing to the heavy storms of snow, sleet
and rain much time was lost and occa-
sionally leaks occurred requiring more or
less attention. The iron and brick work
Of the east and west sections of the south
west fre-proof building has been nearly
completed. Plans have been prepared and
proposals invited for the new five-story
fire-proof building to be erected between
Col. Wilson says that with fair weather
he hopes to complete the work now in
progress before the close of March.

CORRECTED THE DIRECTORY.
One of the Acts of Ex-SOlicitOr Gen
eral Maxwell.

era1 Maxwell.
The officials Of the Department Of JUS
tice still persist in their determination not
to discuss, for publication, the reasons for
Solicitor General Maxwelrs retirement from
the department. From another source,
however, comes information of one :uci-
dent, which, with other matters, is said
to have caused the irritation between the
Attorney General and the solicitor general.
The Congressional Directory has given
for many years brief summaries of The
duties of the heads of different depart
ments, as fixed by law. The descriptive
matter has remained unchanged, the only
changes being in the names and addresses
of the officials. Some weeks ago the COM
piler Of the Congressional Directory re-
Quested the Department of Justice TO make
any changes which might be desired in the
lists of officials in the directory, prepara-
tory to the publication of a late edition.
The request fell into the hands Of Mr.. Max
well, who proceeded to edit the descrip-
ton of the duties of the Attorney General
He struck out that portion which says that
the Attorney General represents the
United States in matters involving legal
questions" He struck out all of the def
milton of the duties of the solicitor general
wherein it is stated repeatedly that the
latter official is under the direction of the
Attorney General and inserted the follow
ing: 1.-The solicitor general is especially
charged with the conduct of the business
of the government and with the argument
of it's cases in the Supreme Court Of the
United StateS.'

REAR ADMIRAL GREER.
He VIII Be Retired on the :Sth Inst
Promotions to Follow.

Rear Admiral Jas. A. Greer. the ranking
oificer Of the navy, will be retired on the
oSth instant. He is now on duty In this
city as president of the naval examining
and retiring board. He was recently sue
ceeded as chairman of the lighthouse board
by Admiral Walker. His retirement will
put Admiral Brown, commanding the Nor
folk navy yard, at the head of the navy,
with Admirals Walker and Ramsay No.
and 3, respectively. 1t will also promote
Commodore VIM. a. Kirkland, command
ing the European squadron, to the full
grade of admiral, and will make Capt. F..
NJ Bunce commodore, and Commander
=. F. Harrington a captain.
Admiral Greer was appointed to the navy
from Ohio and became a midshipman in
1S4S During the war he held the rank of
lieutenant commander, and then that of
commander. and reached the grade of ad-
miral in 1892. He has had over twenty
years sea service, and about twenty-five
years shore duty. His last sea duty was
the command of the European squadron.
1t is his intention to take up his residence
In this city.

Expectation That They VIII BE De
feated THIS Afternoon.

feated This Afternoon.
Nearly all the leading men in the House
Of both parties, and regardless of their at
titude toward the measures under con-
sideration, expect that the vote taken this
afternoon will result in the defeat Of all Of
the financial propositions to be voted on.
The discussion today was decidedly adverse
to action in its general tone and indica-
tions. A very few men. among them Mr..
Dingley and Mr.. Quigg on the republican
side and Springer on the democratic side,
think that there may be a possibility that
some sort Of measure might be patched
up and put through. Most Of those, how
ever, who are earnestly supporting the ad-
ministration bill are without hope, and Mr..
Reed does not expect the adoption either Of
his substitute or the administration bill in
any form. Mr.. Livingstone announced on
the floor of the House this morning that if
the state bank tax repeal amendment were
not adopted ITO democrats would vote
against the bill.
The Reed Substitute.
The Reed substitute would be in a fair
way to be adopted If the administration
democrats could have been induced to sup
port it. Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Carlisle,
however, are opposed to the substitute and
the administration men on the floor are
lighting 1T.
Apparently this substitute opened the
only avenue possible through which legis-
lation could be had, and in refusing to sup
port it, the administration men have up
parently cut themselves off from all hope
Of action. The question is kept before the
House in the most complicated manner pos
sible and all efforts to simplify the ques-
ton by reducing 1t to single proposition
are resisted by those democrats who are
presumed to be most anxious for legisla-
ton.
All Possibility of LEGISLATION Re-
moved.
Unless about three-fourths Of tho men,
bers Of the House are deceived In their
estimate of the situations the whole oalen-
dar of financial propositions VIII be wiped
clean before the close Of the day and all
possibility Of legislationg will be removed.
This close Of the fight in Congress is ex-
pected to be followed tomorrow by a bond
issue, but it is almost certain that the
bonds will not be negotiated at private
sale.

Charges Against Appofntees.

The Senate committee on commerce today
decided to report favorably the nomination
of Herbert Bowen of New Jersey as con-
sui general at Barcelona, Spain. The NOM
ination has been suspended for several
weeks on account of charges that while
acting as consul he charged illegal fees.
The committee also had under considera-
ton the case of George M. Hanson. who
has been appointed collector of customs for
the Passamaquoddy district, in Maine. 1t
has been charged against Mr.. Hanson that
he was not democrat in good standing
in his party. and some efforts have been
made to defeat him on that account. The
committee did not reach a conclusion in
this case.

THE HOUSE.

The House met at II o'clock today. Some
routine business was transacted before the
debate on the bond bill was resumed.
Bills were passed as follows: To give
homesteaders preference rights at the open
ing of the abandoned Fort Jupiter military
reservation. in Florida; to authorize the
Iowa and Nebraska Pontoon Bridge Com
pany to construct a wagon bridge across
the Mississippi river at Sioux City; to pen

lief of Catherine Cain.
The Tennessee Election.
Mr.. Grosvenor (Ohio) asked unanimous
consent for the consideration of joint
resolution for the appointment of a COM
mittee to investigate the validity Of the
election in Tennessee last November. The
resolution recited at length the allegations
made by large body of the citizens of
that state that there was no legal cleo
ton in that state for state officers, men,
hers of Congress and members of the leg
is!ature and instructed the committee to
investigate and report to the first session
a valid election for members of Congress
and If so, who had been elected.
II object to the consideration Of that
resolution" shouted Mr.. Cox (Tenn). "The

The Currency Bill Debate.
The House then went into committee of
the whole and resumed the consideration
of the administration bill to authorize the
issue of $50O,O0O,OOO of gold bonds.
The pending question was on the appeal
from the decision of the chair, ruling the
amendment of Mr. Bland (Mo.) out of Or
der.
The chair was sustained, 1882.

The state Departments Volume on
Foreign Relations for 1891.


Foreign Relations for 1891.
The State Department has begun the
preparation of the volume on foreign rela-
tfons for 1894. A new order of arrange
ment has been adopted, which will doubt
less very much facilitate reference to cases
and diplomatic Incidents, and instead of
exhibiting correspondence by countries
chronologically arranged, the plan has
been adopted of separating the correspond
encc relating to each place into chapters.
1t has already in press the correspondence
relating to Argentina and Austro-Hungary.
In the first case this exhibits an effort on
the part of our government to induce the
republic to join in the international copy
right act, which, however, does not ap-
pear as yet to have commended itself to
the Argentina people. There is also IN
cluded much correspondence touching the
new Argentine tariff. by which most favor
able terms are voluntarily accorded to i'm
ports from the United States in return for
the concessions of free wool made in our
present tariff act.
In the case of Austro-Hurgary. the cor
respondence is almost entirely devoted to
the subject of the United States citizens
and army service in Austria. There were
several of these troublesome cases dur
ing the past year, the most noted being
that of John Benich, naturalized citizen
of the United States, who, returning TO
Austria. was impressed into the military
service In the case or BENIGN, VINO was
a resident of Chicago, although a native
of Austria, the Austrian government made
the point that the man by protracted alb
sence in Austria during the five years
when he was required by our law to re-
side i'm this country as condition to nat
uraIization, was never entitled to such nat
uralization. and so remained a subject OF
Austria. The correspondence In his case
CLOSES with request by Austria that the
superior court of Cook county, ILL.,, call
upon Benich to show cause why his GER
tfffcate of naturalization should not be
Cancelled upon the ground above stated.
Another case that may be of some inter-
est In the United States was that of David
Hoffman, who emigrated from Australia to
the United States at the age of nineteen,
became naturalized and returned to Austria
In 1884, with proper passports. He was
Obliged to leave tho country within eight
days for reasons of public welfare, and
because IL appears contrary to pubic
peace and order that persons who have
evaded the military law in this manner So
icurn in this country" AS there was no
refusal on the part of Austria to recognize
his naturalization, our State Department
was obliged to admit the justice of his ex
pulsion conceding the right of country TO
keep out obnoxious citizens for reasons
which TO itself may seem sufficient.
