A QUESTION OF SALARIES.
Debate in the Senate Over the Legi
latfNe Augmentation BILL

Debate In the Senate Over the Legis-
latfve Appropriation Bill.
In the debate in the Senate yesterday
Afternoon on the legislative bill, Mr.. George
attacked the entire policy of giving high
salaries, and showed that the governors and
attorneys general Of states received less by
half than the bill proposed allowing federal
district attorneys.
Mr. Allen also criticised the provision al
lowing the Attorney General to designate
the number of deputy marshals. He spoke
against the horde Of Office holders" Under
Buchanan, the government cost $50, GOO, 900
annually, and now it cost $500, coo, 600. In
that time the population had doubled, but
the government expenditures had increased
ten-fold. Officials were thrusting their
hands into the treasury, and by hook and
crook, mainly by crook, seeking to increase
their salaries. The purpose of this pro-
an executive officer.
Mr. Hoar responded warmly that the Sem
ate could not waste its time investiga ting
into the details Of the number of denutv
marshals in each Of the seventy-seyen dis
tricts in the United States II 1t did It
would become laughing stock. If the gov
ernment could not trust the Attorney Cen
eral with this duty, then the American gov
eminent had better shut up shop and apply
to some populist club to carry on its affairs.
After an extended debate, the salaries for
district attorneys and marshals were agreed
to as reported, with a few minor changes.
The bill was still under consideration
when the Senate went into executive ses-
sion, at $40

WORKING IN THE. sLUMs
Salvation Army Officers Tell Of Their
Labors to Save Fallen Women.
Graphic Recital Of accidents I'm Their
Experience by Brig. Gen. Perry
and STAFF Captain Cox.

In the presence Of an audience number
ing not less, it was estimated, than 1900.
for every part of the great auditorium was
packed with men and women, and compos-
ed of persons who are as intelligent as can
be found in any city in the Union, Mrs.
Brigadier Perry and Staff Captain Cox the
former Of New York, and both members
of the Salvation Army, told last evening
at Foundry NJ E. Church, corner Of 18th
and G streets northwest, some of their
thrilling experience in laboring among the
slums and in the rescue homes Of great
cities.
Willie the ladies were speaking there
were at times but few in the room whose
eyes were not tear-dimmed, and from the
beginning to the close of each address the
closest attention was paid to what each
had to say, but when after Brigadier Perry
had explained that 1t was necessary, in
order to properly continue the work, to
have some promises Of financial aid, and
cards were distributed through the house
for names by Mrs. H. B. F. mcfarland
and other good women who are earnest in
the cause, the responses were comparative
ly few.
Mrs. Perry Is at the head Of the Salvation
Army rescue and slum work in America.
She arrived from New York yesterday, and
at pm held a service at Foundry. Mrs.
Perry has had a varied experience in diff
ferent countries, and q successful career
in the army, and has the reputation of
knowing the slum work thoroughly.
Capt Eva Dunlap, who became SO well
known as a fine singer when she was sta
toned here, and DR.. Frederick Nice Of
New York, the famous violinist Of the
army and editor of the German War Cry,
were also present, and took part in the ex-
ercises.
