WASHINGTON LETTER,

FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON, NOVEMBER 18TH, 1900.
Nearly every Senator and Represen-
tative who has been to Washington
since The election, regardless of political
afilmticn, has expressed pleasure that
the result of the election was SO over
whelming that the talk Of fraud and
corruption which has disgusted so many
after some of our national elections has
been conspicuouslv absent this time. 1t
is also almost generally agreed that it
was the great prosperity of the country
that brought about the result rather
than blind devotion to any political
party. That belief is based upon the
general idea that the average man who
is doing well is averse to taking the
chances involved in making a change,
even when he beives that the change
might be beneficial. The rejoicing of
the dominant party has also been re-
markably free from partisan rancor,
which has had good effect upon the
spirits of the defeated and added to the
all around pleasantness.
There is no pleasure in life if you dread
going to the table to eat and can't rest at
night on account of indigestion. Henry
Williams OF Boonyille, Ind, says he suffered
that way for years, ill he commenced the
use of kodol Dyspepsia Cure, and adds
Now can eat anything like and all
want and sleep soundly every night" kodol
Dyspepsia Cure will digest what you eat.

UNITED STATES TREASURY.
Figures Made Public From the An

Treasurer Roberts.

Washington, Nov. 13.-The annual
report of the treasurer of the United
States, Ellis H. r. Roberts, on the
operations and conditions of the
treasury, has been submitted to Sec
rotary Gage.
Mr.. Roberts says the growth and
prosperity of the country and the
general activity of business are re-
Elected in the transactions of his Of
fee. The net ordinary revenues of the
government for the fiscal year we're
$567, 240, 1852, the largest in the history
OF the country, exceeding those of
1866, the next highest, by $47, 291 ,2Ss.
The increase of $51, 2S0,232 over the
preceding year was contributed from
all the general resources, but chiefly
from customs and internal revenue.
On the side of the expenditures there
was a net decrease of Silt ,358,3S8 in
comparison with 1899, so that the de-
ficiency of $50, $50 for hat year
was converted into a surplus of $79,-
527 ,06O in 1900. The gross receipts
under warrant, including those on ac-
count of the public debt, were $685.
290,262, and the disbursements $780,
943,472, a large increase on both sides
over the previous year.
With the exception of July, 1899,
when there was a deficiency of So
o 1892, a surplus was realized for
every month of the year, the one for
June being the largest, at ST, 1895, 159.

CLAIM FOR LONGEVITY PAY.
II Found to be Valid. VIII Make the
Naval Personnel Bill a Cost
1y Enactment.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Alfred Lee
Royce. a chaplain in the navy has
brought action in the court of claims,
based upon a construction of the
naval personnel bill, for $500 back
pay, which, if decided in his favor,
would result in the payment of
considerable back pay to all Of
ficers and warrant officers of
the navy appointed from civil life.
The action is based upon the clause
in the personnel act providing that
"all officers, including warrant Off
GERS, who have been or may be APP
pointed from civil life. shall, on the
date of their appointment, be credited
for computing their pay with five
years service"
A chaplain in the navy ranks as a
lieutenant. His longevity pay as we'll
as hat of all officers does not begin
until the end of five years service. In
the case of Royce, who was appointed
in 1881, it would amount to $500 per
year for five years. If his claim is
good alk other officers, surgeons, pay
masters as well as warrant officers
have a claim for longevity pay from
the date of their entrance into the
service. Comptroller of the Treasury
Tracewell has given an opinion
against the validity of Royce's claim,
contending that the intent of the law
was only to give h allowance to Off
GERS who have not beer in the serv-
ice long enough to begin to receive
longevity pay.

try, under Capt. Chetwode, managed
TO pass the Doe outpost, and while
the latter engaged the enemy's pick
ct the hussars charged the Beers in

officers behaved with great gallantry.
but the hussars would probably have
suffered severely, as they got into bad
ground, had they not been supported
by the mounted infantry. In the
morning artillery and infantry joined
Chetwode's force and completed the
Boer rout, who are said to have lost
heavily.
