PLACING new POLICEMEN
Major Moore Trying to Make the
Increase Fill the Want.
He Hopes to be Able to Add to the
Patrol In suburban
Localities.

The District appropriation bill, passed at
the recent session Of Congress, provides
for all increase Of fifty in the police force,
and this addition will lie due July /,
although 1t is not certain that all OF the
appointments will be made by that date.
There are now but forty applicants eli
gible for civil service examination, that
number having successfully stood the test
before the medical board as to their
physical qua ualifications. These have been
cited to appear before the United States
civil service examiners oD Wednesday y next.
1t will be gratifying TO the department if
all pass, us IL will enable that proportion
TO be appointed at once. This is desirable
for the incidental reason that the equip
ment and uniforms can be provided at the
same time, but principally because the
arrangements for tie disposition of the
men can be made to better advantage. II
the entire additidDaI force could he put
on at the same time IL would for this reason
suit Major MoCre best.
Speaking OF the q arrangements for the dis
posal OF the new men the Major said yes
terday that he should make a careful survey
Of the situation before u king action. Such
precincts as are most IN need of help Will
receive first consideration, and while he
cannot now speak positively to which
OF the sections are to be given the greatest
addition he hopes to he able, he said, to
do something substantial for the suburb.
With the small increase for SO large a
territory, and so many less than he feels
are required. Major Moore realizes that
he will experience considerable difficulty
in adjusting the force. since SO many quar-
ters OF the District are asking for an in
crease in the service.

The present excursion season promises
to be exceedingly successful. TIE Jane
Moseley Colonial Beach excursions are
becoming more and more popular as the
season advances This paiatial steamer is
unquestiopably the most elegantly and best
appointed boat that has ever piled bet weeu
Washington and Colonial Beach. 1t comes
In the "nic'' OF time, and supplies long
felt want to the respectable Washington
patronage of the beach. Possessing cool,
spacious hurricane decks, extravagautly
furnished SALOONS, and a conimodious dane
ing hall, it affords comfort, combined with
pleasure. Ladies and children are es-
pecially cared for as absolute decorum pre-
walls at all times, Gentlemauly, affable
and courteous attendants are everywhere
on the boat. IL
TIE concert aud dance music is fur
nished by Prof. Pistorio's Band. Ex-
cellent meals are served, the unequalled
''cuisine' being under the experienced
caterer, Mr. Frank Stewart, late of the
st. James Hotel. 1t is the object OF
the management to make the Jane Moseley

cursions out of Washington, and for this
purpose they could not have secured a
better appointed boat than the Moseley. 1t

Tuesday evening. Not witbstanding the
weather the hall was filled to overflow
ing A novel feature of the evening was
the voting OF au immense gilded medal to
the "ugliest'' gentleman member of the
lodge. Four OF the most popular and
best looking members were selected as
candidates, aud the contest was amusing
and spirited, inasmuch as each candi-
date took the stand and extolled his own
particular style of ugliness. At the close
of the evening it was found that Mr..
Arthur Campbell led the race, and he was
presented the medal, District Chief Templar

GRATrITIES.

One of the features of the English
army system is the granting of "gratui.
ties" after every campaign to those en-
gagged in them. These campaigns !"
are generally about the size of the ex-
petitions F" our Regular Army used to
make against the Indians. The way the
allowances are made reminds one of the
old sailor saying that prize money was
sifted through ladder. What went
through was the officers share; what
caught on the rungs went to the men.
A gratuity has recently been granted
to those engaged in the Ashantee CAM
paign. According to the schedule, a
Colonel will receive $500; a Lieutenant
Colonel, $40; a Major, s120; Cap
tain, $50; First Lieutenant, sos; Sec
ond Lieutenant, S45; non ommissioned
officers from SIS to 500, and privates, 81.

COST OF LABOR AND PRODUCT.

Col. Carroll d. Wright, Superinten-
dent Of Census, and without doubt the
best informed and most reliable stats
tician of the country, has made an H.
teresting calculation, which takes the
wind completely out of much bogus Stats
tics which have been foisted upon the
people.
Taking the figures of the Eleventh
Census he finds that the gross product per
capita for the number of employees en-
gagged in manufacturing and mechanical
industries was S2,204 and the average
wages were S445. Instead of the differ
ence, s1,759, going to the employer, he
shows, as matter of fact, that of the
total product per capita, 20.1S per cent.
went to labor, 55.0S per cent. for mate
rails, and 24.74 per cent. to miscella-
neous expenses, salaries, interest, profits,
etc.

ONCE MORE

While it seems to us that we have ex
planned all the features of the Service
Pension Bill in the most exhaustive
manner, we are still in receipt Of many
letters from pensioners who are fearful
that the passage of such measure will
result in their pensions being cut down
to So or S12 month, whichever rate
may be fixed.
This is a most groundless fear. 1t is
astonishing that anyone should enter
tain it. The Service Pension, as its
name implies, is pension for service
it will have no effect upon pensions
for wounds and disabilities. These are
wholly independent of it. No man who
has received a pension under any of the
laws now on the statute books will be in
least disturbed by the passage of Ser
vice Pension.
The Service Pension Bill will give
every man pension who served 80 days
and was honorably discharged. He
aciH get this simply because he served 90
days, and sras honordbly discharged.
Nothing more will be required, or can
be required. These two facts are all
that he will need to establish. There
will be no medical examination, no nasty
gossiping about his habits, no prying or
pettifogging about whatever little prop
erty lie may have accumulated, no
harshly restrictive "orders and =" de-
cisions" to defaud him of his rights.
The law will be plain as pikestafi, and
as mandatory as drill order. The man
who served 80 days and was honorably
discharged must be given his pension
No "vested rights" legislation will be
necessary to confirm it to him. He will
have it by an absolute right, to enjoy
until death, and it can only be taken
away from him by showing that he did
not serve 80 days or was not honorably
discharged.
1t is strange that so simple, just, and
commendable legislation as this should
receive criticism or opposition from any
friend of the veterans. They should
understand it thoroughly without expla-
nation. The reasons for Its passage
should appeal irresistibly to them, and
they should he enthusiastically for it.

SHERnIaN'S MEMOIRS.

This weeks installment of the "Me-
moirs of Gen. w. 7. Sherman takes
us forward through the story of the
first occupation of California by United
States troops to the brink of that mo-
mentous event in the history of the
country-the discovery of gold. Next
weeks installment will give a full ac-
count of the first discovery, and the
scenes which followed this event. Gen.
Sherman tells everything in delight
fully unassuming direct ofi-hand way,
which makes most fascinating reading.
1t has all the attraction of real flesh
and-blood history. The Memoirs are
only published in TIE NATIONAL TRIB-
UNE They alone are worth far more
than the subscription price of the paper.
Don't fail to send in your renewal
promptly, that you may not miss a

The National tribune., 1896-05-07

The assassination of the Shah OF
Persia brings another complication be-
tween Great Britain and Russia. Both
have strong interest in the ancient
sadly-rundown Kingdom of Persia.
Russia wants the country-and has
heretofore taken large slices of it-be-
cause it will give her access to the Persian
Gulf, an outlet into the southern oceans,
and naval position of great Importance.
These are the strongest reasons in the
English mind why she should not have
the country. Its possession will place
Russia directly Oh the flank of Hindus-
tan, and Russian naval station on the
Persian Gulf would put the Cars ships
in very easy distance of the Indian
coasts. The two countries have been
intriguing over Persia for a halfcen-
fury. Russia has followed her usual
policy of alternately making war upon
the Shah, and slicing off large tracts of
his territory, and then wheedling him
into the belief that the Gar is his best
and most powerful friend. Great Britain
has fattered and courted the Shah,
sometimes given him substantial as
sistance in his wars, but more fire.
quently left him helpless when he most
needed help. Now there are two sons
of the late Shah aspirants for the throne,
and it is believed they represent re-
spectively Russian and British interests,
and that an intenecine war is likely,
into which both the powers may be
drawn.
The National tribune., 1896-05-07

The silver question enters into the
matter of the construction of the Nicar-
aqua Canal. The estimates for labor
are based upon the fact that the laborers
will be paid in silver, which has less than
half the purchasing power of gold, but
this is Offset by the fact that the Iaborer
will not do more than half rs much work
as a man will in the United States. I'm
other words, if a man in Nicaragua gets
81 a day he is paid silver dollar, which
is really worth less than 90 cents, but he
really does no more than so cents worth
of work, measured by United States
standards.
The National tribune., 1896-05-07

SPEAKER REED has only himself to
blame for the unexpectedly weak show
ing that he has made in the Presidential
race. One year ago his splendid ag-
gressiveness, his readiness to take instant
advantage of every opportunity to adj
vance the interests of Republicanism, and
the principles that millions had closely
at heart made him the idol of Republi-
cans everywhere, and his name was in
everybody's mouth. But in becoming a
Presidential candidate he seemed to lose
all the qualities which had endeared
him to the people. He became eau
tious, conservative even timid, it
seemed. In short, he ceased to be
Reed, and the people who had once
gone enthusiastic over him lost their
interest in him,
The National tribune., 1896-05-07

COL LUDLOW testified before the
House Commerce Committee last week
that he thinks the Nicaragua Canal zen.
tirely feasible" and that he has arrived
at this conclusion by an examination OF
the whole line. He claims to have been
the only engineer who, up this time, has
made such thorough examination. He
thinks, though, that the company's esti-
mates have been entirely too low, and
that it will cost possibly s150,000,00O
to construct the canal. As to this,
however, he would want fuller informa-
ton and more thorough surveys than
are yet before him. He thinks that
the tolls would readily make the ex-
penditure of-such a sum a profitable in
vestment. ~
