CUTTING OF EXPENSES
RAISE CRY FOR RE-
 IMPEACHMENT.
.xoiut subcommittee of Reuse and senate Looking Into Extrava- gance fin the Matter of
 Printing Bills.

Washington, Oct 27.-(Speciall l-!t sounds like the good old, way-back Democratic times to hear the Repubii- cans talking about cutting doWn the expenses of the government as they are doing now, and the shadowy hgure of inc real Old Dog Tray of Treasury Watch-D Dogs, William s. Holman, rises out of the mists of memory. and can almost be heard at the head of tho House Appropriations Committee asalh barking alarm and baying deep mouthed economy.
 The joint subcommittee of the Sem ate and House to investigate the ex- penditures In the government printing office has set to work on its large task' Senator German Is on the Committee. hut. on account. of the exigencies or fine Maryland State campaign, has not vet been able to be with his associates.
 Messra. Landis of Indiana and Per- lins of New York are representing the House. Preliminary to the nearing the executive departments were asked py MT. Landis to submit reports showing the costs at present or printng III .noir respective jurisdictions and embodyins suggestions of practical reform.
 'sThe reports we have received" said Mir. Iandis indicate that every cabt- net officer is in harmony with the pro- gram of this committee. Several Of the departments. acting on their own motion, have appointed boards on printing; and these boards are now go- ing through the annual reports, reduc- ing them and throwing away copy that can be sacrificed. Secretary Hitch cock. for instance, tells me that he be- lieves that he will be able to reduce the cost of printing for his great de- partment from 25 to 50 per cent. oth- CT cabinet officers are talking much the same.
 T think it Is safe to say that the public printers estimates to the Ap- proprSations Committee could be re- duced half q million dollars over last years. The acting public printer is also looking about his establishment with a view to saving an enormous sum annually In wages and other charges"

on diamonds and jewelry brought to
this country is 10 per cent Of the
value Of the goods.
Figuring on this basis, the gov
eminent authorities expect to realize
between $4,000 and $4,000. The rest
of the proceeds from the sale of any
jewelry or diamonds on which duty
has, not been paid will be turned over
to Mr.. Loeser to be distributed among
the Chadwick creditors.
According to the government Off
Gals, by far the greater portion Of the
jewelry is in the hands of innocent
persons. The work of informing these
people that their claim on the
jewelry is to be protested is going on
The anticipation is that practically
all the people who have the jewelry
will agree to settlement without
taking the matter into the courts. At
the same time the government au-
thorities, as we'll as Receiver Loeser,
are taking steps to enforce their de-
mands in the matter if SO compelled.
