The assertion made in the cablegram

that much criticism had been occasion.
ed there by the extravaganza increase
of salaries of American exposition of.
ticlalS was shown yesterday to have
ample foundation. The President sent
to tue Senate a cOmmuni alton from
Secretary Hay, with an accompanying
list of appOintees and the details of the
expenditures during January, Febru-
AIRY and March of this year.
In view of the facts which are dis
closed by the information sent to the
Senate, Commissioner General Peck
seems sarcastic when he remarks, as
quoted by Secretary Hay, that sin
making all appointments. the fitness
of the individuals to perform the ser
vice required has been the main con-
sideration, and the questions of geo.
graphical residence and party affilia-
tions have been purely incidental. 1t
is possibly due to the fitness which Mr.
Peck thus emphasizes that bis son,
ferdinand w. Peck, jr., appears on the
rolls at a salary of So 900 a year; that
the son of Admiral CrOwninshieId is a
clerk at 50 900 year; that Mr.. Peck 3
is another official at good
salary; that w. W. Bracket, the son
or nephew of Secretary General
Bracket, is clerk at 81 489 a year
and that a son of Sec rotary Wilson has
also been provided for Indeed, the
whole list is one long example of nspo-
tism, to say nothing of government
employees on the rolls in Washington
who are also on the rolls of the exposi-
ton.
