AND so forth. There is a total of 1874 diff
ferent charges on the same scale of munifcence.
Travelling expenses sleeping cars aside from
the special train commented on already, reim-
bursements, personal expenses, etc. figure con-
stantly in the list. Aside from their con1pensa-
ton, which exceeded $50 day it appears the
Commissioners charged the Government their
daily living expenses at about SO day each.
GENERAL WILSON'S EXTRA PAY
General Wilson's appearance in these vouchers
is not creditable either himself or to his pro-
fession, While receiving this exorbitant pay
and these unusual enOluments for inconseQuen-
tial duties, he a brigadier of the Staff De-
partment, in active service, at the call OF the
President upon any reasonable public service
The investigation of staff shortcomings in the
Spanish war was perfectly germane to his Off
ciaI business. If the Government had been
robbed or the troops subjected TO undue hard
ships II was his duty to get the facts While
acting as Beef Commissioner he was relieved
Of responsibility as Chief of Engineers, at least
in large measure. Although ne undoubtedly
regularly drew his pay and allowances as a
brlgaaier-geaeral, nearly $1,000 per annunl, he
had no hesitation in drawing $1,000 or upward
compensation as Beef Commissioner for about
i!Ne iIOHLAS service, Wnlcn seems 10 nave been
Mite mere than JunketIng through the length
and breadth of the land, and in addition more
than $1,000 for per diem expenses AS an
army officer besides his pay and allowances
proper, he has free medicines and free medical
attendance for himself and family, free sta
uonery and the right TO purchase most of his
household supplies of the United States Quar-
termaster at cost.
In view of these facts to accept this extra
compensation a questionable proceeding.
The Secretary Of War should have interposed his
veto. There was some excuse for the civilians,
they may have been taken from employments
upon which their livelihood depended. But Gen
eral Wilson held life tenure place, with large
pay, and was apparently beyond all human
Ylclssitudes. He was educated Government
expense, and had been carried upon its payrous
for about forty years. In view Of these discos-
ures, IL is a matter of public concern TO know
