ARTISANS ARE KICKING
EMPLOYEES IN THE DEPARTMENT.
WANT MORE PAY. =
Those Who Are on Per Diem Rolla
Seek Jobs on the Out "a
side. iISs q

The recent increase in the price of living
and the increased demand for skilled labor
have naturally led to an increase in wages.
This condition is being felt in the executive
departments, 1t Is stated, for In some in
stances the salaries and wages in the de-
partments are less than in private estab-
lishments. The result Is that many per
diem men In the government departments
are kicking" if not striking. and some of
the salaried men are resigning. and stin
worse. the civil service is finding some
trouble to find eligibles who will accept
government work.
There are four classes Of plumbers, four
classes of pattern makers and four classes
of carpenters Uoiners) in the navy yard.
The joiners get from $500 down to 81. 33 for
day of eight hours; the plumbers get from
1882 to $3.50 per diem.
In the executive departments the carpe1-
tiers get from $40 to 500 a year for seven
and a half hours work
The first and second-clasS machfnists in
the navy yard get higher per diem pay than
those in the departments, and the result is
that men are resigning from the depart
ments 1t is argued. however, that the en-
thirty days leave per year, 'if they can be
spared (and they usually get it), and they
may be paid for thirty additional days II
sick, while In the navy yard they get but
hfteen days leave In ALL
The result of existing conditions, 1t IL
stated, is that those who are in feeble
health are apt to stick to their department
jobs, while those in robust health are nat
uraIy seeking the more lucrative employ
ment in other places. =
An examination of the pay tables shows
that there Is quite discrepancy in the SAL
aries paid In the different executive depart
mentS for the same class Of work. This Is
particularly SO in the cases Of engineers
and cabinet makers.

TRADE WITH MANCHURIA.
How the American Interests May h
Safeguarded

How the commercial interests of the
United States in Manchuria may be safe
guarded against future international COM
plications and our trade in that country
maintained and increased is told in a re-
port received at the State Department from
United States Consul Miller at New
chwang. He says that Russia in the end
will practically dominate the commercial
and industrial affairs of Manchuria unless
other countries have in every way equal IA
cilities. American trade in Manchuria to-
day consists principally of cotton goods,
kerosene and flour, and largely in excess
of that of any other country. 1t is esu-
mated that our exports to Manchuria will
equal 100000 taels, or thirty-five per cent
of all foreign imports. In order that this
commercial supremacy may be maintained
Consul WILDER has made the following
recommendation to the department:
First Establishment by American manu-
facturers of an expert agent in Manchuria
who shall sell direct to native firms instead
of to Shanghai and Hong Kong.
Second. That the Washington govern
ment urge the opening of all of Manchuria
to the trade of the world AS Tree TO US
as to Russia or any other country
Third That new consul general be
added to the American consular service,
It's head to be known as the United States
consul general for Manchuria.
Foreign imports into Manchuria have In
creased during the past ten years at rate
ranging from one hundred to five hundred
per cent reaching the high water mark
in the wear Just past. Free expectation OF
all products for the future, Mr. WILDER says.
would increase trade development for years
to come as greatly as in the past decade,
and If in addition, Manchuria could be
made free to commerce and Industry OF all
people and their mines opened there would
be he predicts, a growth of prosperity
astonishing to China and the world.

PROGRESS OF REFUNDING.
Total Of 3 and Per Cent Bonds Ex-
changed About S56. DOC. 600

The Treasury Department continues to
receive large consignments of 8 and 4 per
cent bonds for exchange into 2 per cents.
Up to yesterday afternoon the total amount
of the two classes of bonds surrendered
has been about $56.O0OOOO. The treasury
officials say that the correspondence indt-
Gates that there is still considerable inter-
est in the refunding operations and the
expectation is that by the middle of May
nearly the entire 500, 600 900 that Secretary
Shaw announced would be accepted for re-
funding will have been turned in.
The result of the operations this month
has been large increase in the deposits Of
bonds by national banks security for cir
culation. On March 81 the total amount
of bonds of all classes held by the treas
urer of the United States in trust for ma
honal banks as security for circulation
was $342, 154, 30. At the close of business
April % the total amount of bonds held
increase of SS521.550 The figures yester.
day and today will probably make the to-
tai show a net increase of 5000, 600 or
more. Circulation is being issued against
these bonds as rapidly possible. Where
the circulation was already on hand it has
have had to order the printing of additional
circulation to cover the additional bonds
deposited by them. This printing under
rush orders, cannot be done in less than
twenty -five days at the bureau Of engrav-
ing and printing, where the whole force is
printing.
The total amount of government bonds
held as security for public deposits has
changed little during the month of April,
deposits with national banks in some
time

PEACHES ARE SAFE
NOT BELIEVED THE CROP Is MA
TERIALLY HURT.
AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT
xNCLINEs TO THE VIEW THAT THE
COLD BETTERS PROSPECTS.

Reports Thus Far Received by the
Department in Atlanta Indicate
That the Peaches VIII Escape.
Assistant Commissioner of Agri-
culture WriGht's Views - He
Thinks the Cold Will Serve to
Retard Development, Thereby Be-
ing Beneficial.
Atlanta Feb. lit is not believed
that the peach crop of Georgia IS mate
rally hurt by the present freeze, ac-
cording to reports received at the State
Department of Agriculture.
State Entomologist Scott is out Of the
city, but Assistant Commissioner of
Agriculture r. F. Wright says, accord
ing to information received, the
peaches had not advanced far enough
to be materially damaged, though
blooms have come out in some sections.
In his opinion this cold spell will
rather tend to help the peaches by
keeping them back out of the way of
danger from another freeze, should one
come within the next week or two.

MARINE HOSPITAL
SOON TO BE UNDER WAY.
Preparations AfOOt to Make an
Early start on the Building.


Washington. Feb. 17.-Work on the
new Marine Hospital at Savannah will
probably begin within the next few
days. At a recent conference of those
who are interested in expediting the
construction of the hospital with Sur
geon General Wyman of the Marine
Hospital Service and Mr.. Taylor super
vising architect of the Treasury De-
partment, the subject of acquiring adj
ditional property adjoining the site was
fully discussed.
The suggestion was made that there
is an urgent demand for the early
completion of the hospital and al
though only half of the square has
been ceded to the government by the
state, 1t is quite sufficient for the
present for such a building as is con-
templated. Accordingly, the treasury
officials have determined to push for
ward the plans and specifications for
the structure, and it is the intention 10
begin building early in the spring.
1t is said that the delay in the work
was due to the decision on the part of
certain persons to have the hospital
and adjacent grounds occupy the en-
tire square. The owners of the adj
joining property 1t is alleged, placed
fancy figure on the land, which was
too rich for the economical blood of
the treasury officials. For the present,
all attempts to acquire the other half
of the square has been abandoned, and
the money. which might have been ex-
pended in securing more property. will
be used to render the Savannah hospital
one of the best equipped institutions of
its kind in the United States.
