NEW ORDER OF THINGS

Washington. July 10. - Several recent
incidents in the pension bureau, entirely
apart from the restoration Of chiefs OF al
visions and clerks, have indicated III a
very positive manner the accession of the
new administration. 1t has been partic-
ularly noticeable in the pension claims
which were refused adjudication by the
pension bureau under the Cleveland adj
ministration and which were subse-
'quently introduced in Congress as private
pensi On bills, which, failing to pass, have
been brought before the present admin.

Western Republicans Will Oppose the
Currency Commission.
Washington, July 10-Western Re.
publicans are making Il strong fight
against the proposition for currency
commission. Great pressure is being
brought to bear upon the President by
Western Senators and Representatives to
at least y 'stpone until next session the
sending of n message to Congress.
The fact that it is utterly impossible
now to pass resolution through the
Senate authorizing such IL commission is
being urged upon the President, and
strong arguments as to the effects of such
an attempt on the situation in the West
are also being presented.
Secretary Gage intends to devote a
great deal of his time this summer to
perfecting his plan for currency bill.

A SHORT CONFERENCE.

The Tariff Bill May Reach the President
bv the 10th.
Washington July 10. The Republican
members of the tariff conference commit
tee, after the meeting to day, expressed
the opinion that there would be no strur-
gle over the bill. The conference promises
to be the shortest on record. Members
of the committee now claim that the bill
will be out of conference the early pnrt of
the coming week and will probably get
through Congress the latter part of the
week and be ready for the Presidents

WASHERWOMEN SUFFER-

Washington, July lO.-One of the
greatest hardships of the delay caused by
the tariff falls on the washerwomen who
wash the linen and tow els for the various
departments. They have had no pay since
february owing to refusal of Congress to
take up the deficiency bill, which con-
tains an appropriation for their work.
