SHAW CUTS RED TAPE.
AN ANNOYANCE TO BUSINESS MEN
DEALING WITH SUB-TREASU-
RIES ABOLISHED.

Washington. April 22--One of the most I'M
portant decisions made in years in the Treasury
Department was announced to-day, and viii De
welcomed by the business men of the country as
abolishing an annoyance they have experienced
in connection with government business Here
tofore the government has insisted. through the
sub trea suriee, that all government checks and
warrants not only must be fully and completely
indorsed in the regular way. but also must he
accompanied by a certificate showing the Eu-
,hority OF the indorser TO indOrse the check
This has frequently given rise TO Vexntious de-
laws and q sort of red tape which has annoyed
bankers and business men everywhere. The
government heretofore has not deemed ordinary
Endorsements accepted by banks as sufficient
unless accompanied by this certificate OF author
iIy to indorse. By IA ruling of the department
made to-day sub-treaSurieS throughout the
country viii hereafter pay government war
rants and checks when indorsed and indorse-
nlent guaranteed by the banks presenting the
same for payment. This reduces the PROPOSE
tion to one of simple business caution, and here
after the government will pay warrants much
as a cautious business man or banker would
pay similarly indorsed paper
