RECRUITS FOR THE ARMY
Nearly Fifteen Thousand Secured
for New Regiments.
Every Effort Being Made to Get
Them Ready for Early Departure
for Manila - War Department Of
ficiaIs still Troubled About Trans
ports-AdditionaI Ships Necessary.

Nearly Is 600 recruits have been secured
by the War Department for the twelve
volunteer regiments organizing. Exclusive
of the two colored regiments, one of which
has 14S men and the other SIS, there are
enough volunteers now on hand to fill ten
of the volunteer regiments. Returns re-
cefved from the recruiting officers up to
hand to fill these regiments, and tele-
graphic returns received yesterday after
noon show that more than that number
had enlisted. Five of the regiments
have more than their quota, but recruiting
will continue until each regiment is filed.
The regiments, according to the returns
UP to yesterday, are as follows: Thirty
eighth, Colonel Anderson, 1,407 men,
Thirty-ninth Colonel Bullard, 1433; For
tieth, Colonel Goodwin 1,271; Forty-irst,
Colonel Richmond, 1901; Forty second.
Colonel Thompson, 1,166; Forty-third,
Colonel Murray, 1,103; Forty-fourth, Col
onel McClernand, 1,434 Forty fifth, Col
onel Dorst. 1884; Forty sixth, Colonel
Schuyler, l 1,453; Forty y-seventh, Colonel
Howe, 1854; Forty-eighth Colonel Duvall.
1.14S; Forty ninth, Colonel Beck, SIS;
Philippine service, unassigned, 20.
Everything is being done to get these
regiments in shape for departure for Manila
by the earliest date practicable. Orders
have already been issued to the Thirty
ninth and Forty-sixth regiments to move
to their places of embarkation and orders
to the Thirty-eighth, Forty-fourth, and For
ty-fifth regiments may be issued any day.
The question of transportation still troubles
War Department officials and it may be
necessary to charter additional transports.
1t is proposed to send the Forty-first, For
| ty-third, and Forty seventh Infantry to the
Philippines by way of the Suez Canal,
| transports for which are expected to be
ready between October 20 and the 1st OF
| November
! The Forty-first and Forty-seventh regi-
! ments are being organized at Camp Meade
| Pa and the Forty-third at Fort Ethan Al
/ len, Vermont. The ships selected for theil
transportation are the Thomas, Logan, ant
| Meade, now being iitted up. A provisional
schedule prepared yesterday at the Wal
! Department, shows that one of these regi-
ments will probably leave New York abou
| November l and the other two on Noyem
Der 10 or Is. There has been some criti
/ cism about the lack of facilities at Caml
Meade for target practice, and orders have
been issued to the Ordnance Department 4

soon as possible. so that target practice cal

CHOOSING CENSUS AGENTS.
A Statement by Director Merriam Re
rardiur Their Appofufmeps


The Director of Census yesterday promul-
gated the following order concerning the
selection OF special agents, who will be en-
ployed by the Census Bureau in carrying
out the provisions OF the census law
"A plan has been outlined for the selec-
tion of the special agents who are to do
the work connected with the collection of
statistics relating to manufacturing and
mechanical industries, differing considera-
bly, from that of ten years ago. At that
time special agents were employed as clerks
in the Washington Office, and also to coll
lect information throughout the country on
various subjects.
Under the present law the only statistics
that will be gathered for the next two years
which will require the efforts of special
agents will be those concerning manufac-
turing and mechanical establishments. Un-
der the direction of the Director of the
Census, S. n. D. North, Chief Statistician
in charge of the Manufacturing Division,
has outlined plan By which the industries
of the country are grouped under sixteen
different heads, including food and kindred
products, textiles, iron and steel, lumber
and its remanufactures, leather, clay, glass
and stone products, etc. The work OF col
| lecting the information concerning the sub
jects mentioned will be done under the i'm
| mediate charge of sixteen expert special
agents selected under the direction OF Mr.
North for their expert knowledge of the
subjects assigned them. All the prelimi-
nary work fer the ascertainment of the
various facts required will be turned over
TO the special agents referred to- subject 10
the supervision of the chief statistician OF
the Division of Manufactures
Under the law it is absolutely requisite
that the data concerning the manufacturing
and mechanical industries be collected
within two years from June, 1900. The plan
has therefore been adopted of appointing
special agents in all Of the largest cities OF
the country who will be employed not to
exceed thirty to forty days in gathering
! the information required 1t may be said
| in passing that the persons selected for this
| particular work will be men of experience
and, as far as possible, expert knowledge.
/ 'Inasmuch as the law requires that the
| statistics concerning the four general
heads, namely, population, mortality, agri-
culture, and manufacturing and mechanical
| establishments, shall be completed before
| any other work is undertaken, the Office
will have no use for the services of special
1 agents to gather information in regard TO
what is denominated special subjects until
| after the four general subjects referred 10
are completed. 1t is possible in about two
years when the special reports are taken uI
that there will be more or less demand TO,
special agents to look after the gathering
of the enquiries required by section eighI
of the census act"
This is an entirely different plan from
that employed in the selection of special
agents for the census OF 1890.

THE DEPUTY NOT AT FAULT.
Complaint OF Business Men About
Purchasing Revenue stamps.

Complaint OF Business Men About
Purchasing Revenue stamps.
Numerous business men of the city, who
daily use large quantities of revenue
stamps, have complained that they are un-
able 10 purchase stamps when they abso-
lutely require them. They state that the
Office of the stamp deputy of the collector
for the District, in C Street, is closed at
2 O'Clock all week days except Saturday
and on that day two hours earlier.
IL was said al the office OF the Commis-
sioner of Internal Revenue yesterday
that no such complaints had been fled
with the Commissioner. The stamp dep
uty." said an Official of the Internal RIVE
nue. Office. is required by law 10 deposit
in bank every day the receipts from the
sale of internal revenue stamps, and as
the banks close at 3 O'Clock on weeks days,
except Saturday, when they c,ose at u, ii
viii be seen that the stamp deputy must
be governed accordingly. Il takes little
time 10 tx his accounts and make a de-
posit. If The business men who complain
that they cannot buy stamps after O'Clock
would stop to consider this they would see
that the stamp deputy is not in fault. 1t
seems 10 me that a man ought 10 be atle

may need between the hours of a. N.
