nent employees of the Government
receiving regular monthly sala-
ries, will be paid from the Audit
Office after July l, 1898, by indi
vidual warrant on the treasury.
In other words, payments OF all
salaries and wages, heretofore
made under warrants of the
spending bureaus, are now to be
made under warrants of the Audit
Office.
What, then, becomes of all the
garnishee judgments on recordY
This is what is worrying the &C
countants in the bureaus upon
whom the responsibility for sat
isfyiug the garnishee judgments
has hitherto been placed. With
that question goes the query as to
whether the Audit Act can have
retroactive effect to the nullifica
ton of the official garnishee law
regarding judgments already EN-.
tered prior to the going into force
OF that Act. An affirmative ans
wer would seem to be prepos.
ferrous. To the BULLETIN it does
not appear that there need be any
serious trouble about the matter.
The functions of disbursing Off
GERS are simply transferred by the
new regulations from those
hitherto having such to the off
cials of the Audit Office. With
those functions should also go the
responsibility of garnishees. The
heads of departments being re
CURED to furnish the Audit
Office with their salary lists
and pay rolls ought to be
able to purge themselves OF res
possibility as garnishees by trans.
hitting with such lists and rolls
the DEGREES of garnishment attach
ed. This would be in accordance
with the reasonable view that, for
the purpose in question, the audi
tors are the successors OF the
other officials, and just as respon-
sible to the courts for satisfying
the judgments as would be the
successor in Office of an official
who died or resigned while gar
nishee of a Government benefi.
ciary. If, however, the troubled
officials are not empowered Of
their own motion to transfer their
responsibility as garnishees, there
is surely means known to the law
officers of the Government for re
lieving their distress.

1t is suggested now that the reason why
the Spaniards refuse to exchange Lieut.
Hobson is because he has seen much at
Santiago which might be of value to the
United States forces in their attack on the
city. Hobson's opportunities for obser-
walton could not, however, have been very
extensive. After sinking the Merrimac
he rowed to a Spanish .man-of-war near
by, and has since been confined in Moro
Castle There are few on board the
United States feet who have not had bet
ter opportunities for getting information
about the defences of Santiago than Hob.
son. A more probable reason for not ex-
changing him now is that the Spaniards
expect the Americans will capture many
important prisoners at Santiago, among
them Gen. Linares and Admiral Cervera
and think that he may be exchanged to
better advantage after that. The
Spaniards will have no American
prisoner of the rank of Gen. Linares OF
Admiral Cervera, but they hope the fame
Hobson has got from his exploit will
make him the equal for purposes of ex-
change of either of them.

and the conditions that have surrounded
them have not been health promotive
Yet it is said there is no sickness at all
among them. The health of the men on
the fleet too is generally good, notwith-
standing the intense heat and the narrow
quarters in which they are compelled to
sleep. These facts seem to show that
we have not so much to fear from the

Probably the administration has never
cherished the hope that the Spaniards
could be starved out of Havana by a sea
blockade. The island is too fertile for
that. The chief purpose of the blockade
was, no doubt, to keep out reinforcements,
and arms and munitions of war with
which the Spanish defences might be
strengthened and the Spanish troops
rendered more efficient. That it has
served that purpose well there can be
little doubt. Havana can be starved into
surrender only when it is invested on the
land side as well as on the sea. That
will take place in the fall-provided Spain
has not collapsed before-when the ondi-
ton for active campaigning will be far
better than now and our troops will have
been brought much nearer perfection in
discipline anu equipment. Meanwhile
if the people can continue to live in COM
paratiye comfort perhaps it will comport
better with our claim that the war was
prompted largely by considerations of
humanity.

The latest story that the powers are

The third call for troops, which it was
said few days ago was about to be issued
has been postponed, perhaps indefinitely.
There are troops enough already under
arms to take care of the business we
started out to do. They are deficient in
equipment and discipline, but when these
are supplied we shall have army enough
to drive the Spaniards out of Cuba and
occupy Porto Rico. The impossibility of
Spain's sending reinforoements to either
Of the islands makes IL certain that no
matter how long we delay the Invasion
we shall not need any more troops than
now. Indeed we shall not need so many,
for disease will considerably diminish
the number Of Spanish soldiers in Cuba,
while the efficiency of our regiments will
be greatly improved.

There is a curious room in Chicago.
1t is in one of the most imposing man
sions of the city-a mansion famed for
its dinners and balls. This little room
is fashioned of mirrors. Ceiling, floor
and walls are all Of mirrors, some Of
which are convex and concave, some
fiat. The door is also Of looking-glass,
and it opens with a spring, which it is
not easy to find. One of the jests Of
the household is to entice a guest into
the glittering room, close the door and
leave him for a few moments to find
his way out. The effect upon the
senses is bewildering. The occupant
sees himself in grotesque shapes all
around. He is logged with c%aricatures
of himself. He sees himself with 4 fat
and swelling face and with IN elonga-
ted and lugubriou- phiz; he perceives
himself squat as a dwarf and towering
like a beanpole, and can find no escape
from these absurd presentments OF
himself.
