The price of wheat is largely governed

The price of wheat is largely governed
by the demand and the visible supply.
This visible supply or surplus stock held
for the future has been decreasing for
two years and is now much lower than
the usual and probably will be lower be-
fore any large quantity of the winter
wheat reaches the elevators. This fact
will tend to hold wheat at a higher
price than generally prevails. Should
the crop now nearly matured in this
section prove a good INT as it now pro-
misses, the price will in some degree. re-
pay the farmers for the grain ruined by
the rust scare last season.

Iowa is greatly concerned over the
fact that her population has decreased
since the census of 1900, and is unable
to account for it. If Iowa will examine
the North Dakota directory she will find
a big bunch of former Iowa citizens
which will give her some clew as to
what has become of her population; and
if the present crop prospects materialize
there will be another slump in the Iowa
census.

ing, submitted by E. Stanley Simmons
The building is to be erected on Eff

subject to change. His general outline.
however. is for an exceptionally hand
some seven-story buildiIs, of classic
style. Marble. or Hght-colored stone Is
suggested for the exterior, with marble
or stone ant' mahogany for the interior,
and bronze doors ana ratings.
There will be spacious bank interior

ment to admit uniform light There
VIII be an abundance of ante-rooms for

TREASURY DEFICIT
TWENK-TH9[E MILLIONS

Official figures givet. opt at the Treas
ury Department place the deficit for the
fiscal year, 1905, at exactly 1851, 752- 10.
nearly $1,000, 600 less thal, the figure set
by the Treasury Del artment officials
some months ago.
One month ago, however. the deficit
amounted to more thar $31, 100000, and
il was predicted by man. that the GUS
tomary large receipts during the month
o. June would not reduce this more
than IS, 0oo, 900 or s10oo5,G90.
This prediction was knocked in the
head by the increase in the receipts of
June, and the apparent economical eff
forts of the various heads of Depart
ments and bureaus. The combination of
an increase in receipts and a decrease in
expenditures piled up a surplus in the
month of June of sl2. 661, 32S17 The re-
ceipts from all sources in June, 1865
were s47, $50, 71704, SLIGHTLY less than the
figures for June, 1901 The expenditures
during the month just closed amounted
to $50, 2SS, S4S-S7. nearly 10000 $50 less than
the expenses of June, 1904.

G. v. j. ESTABLISHES
COLLEGE QE ENGINEERING
1t Will Occupy Old Mansion in Center
of Van Ness Park-Other
Buildings.

The George Washington University
has enlarged its educational work very
materially In the establishment of an
other division in its department of arts
and sciences, to be known as the Col
lege of Engineering.
To this college mas been assigned the
supervision of the courses of study and
technical training required for the de-
grees in civil, electrical and mechanical
engineering; and for the accommoda-
ton of its work the old Van Ness man
sion. around which the main group of
new buildings for the university will be
erected. Is being fitted up.
The structural arrangement of the
building lends itself admirably to the
new service. The architectural features
Of the building will not be altered The
improvements will be in the nature of
restoration. The foundations and walls
are intact and we'll fitted to withstand
the vibrations of the machinery that
will be installed.
The interior arrangement will pro-
vide amply for the several branches of
the engineering courses. The basement
will be used for heavy machinery, such
as engines, dynamos, lathes, construc-
ton appliances, etc. On the first floor
ZIG i5iilcf HdCiiuSTS, testing dppd-
ratus, mechanical and electrical meas
uring instruments, laboratories, ETC.,
will be placed.
The drafting rooms and class rooms
Will be located on the second floor. The
engineering work of the university will
be conferred in this building, but the
general university subjects will, as
heretofore, be taught in the class rooms
Of the administration building, the class
rooms in the Van Ness building to be
used for strictly engineering courses.
The other building in Van Ness Park
is to be used for the mems gymnasium
and for locker accommodations for the
athletic association.
The Van Ness mansion is located cen
trally in the park. The new group of
, buildings will therefore be built around
1t. and when the new buildings for the
mechanical arts are completed the ma
chfnery, apparatus and other equipment
then housed Up the Van Ness building
will be transferred to the new quarters
and su:h disposition made of the his
torlc mansion as may seem best.

Government Clerks Off To-
day at l O'Clock.

Early Closing on Saturdays During
July, August, and September.
Clerks Are Rejoicing.
CONTINUES DURING SUMMER

Beginning with today the clerks in the
executive departments of the United
States Government and at the District
building will enjoy the half holidays az
forded them every Saturday afternoon
during the three summer months of
July, August, and September.
As last year, the requirement is that
on Saturdays the clerks shall work from
3 o clock until o'clock in the afternoon,
not taking time out for lunch. At
O'Clock they were released for the day
Numerous expressions of gratitude
were heard today from the clerks on
being allowed this holiday during the
because IL affords respite, in addition
duties of The office
Work Piles Up.
1t is all the more appreciated because
a few weeks ago it was feared in many
quarters that the holiday would not
be forthcoming this year, as it was
last year. The reasons for this fear
were that the work in the departments
has increased in a marked degree since
last summer, and that a report got
abroad that a suggestion had been
made in a high quarter for discon-
tinuance of the privilege.
All these fears have been proven
groundless. however. The clerks had
tl;eir first holiday this afternoon. This
was the rule in all the departments.
Some Kickers.
In few cases. however. there was
heard some criticism of the requirement
that the clerks be kept in until 1 o'clock.
This criticism was based on the fact
that the clerks had been accustomed to
getting their lunches between noon and
1870 O'Clock, and the extra time kept
them working while they were hungry
These adverse criticisms were. how
ever, comparatively few, and were lost
for the most part in the general chorus
of thankfulness that the holiday had
been granted.

President Mcconnell of Machnsts Union to See Darling
Concerning Its Denial to Navy Yard Workmen.

A controversy between the Navy De-
partment and the machinists at the
Washington Navy Yard is on because
of the decision of the department to
exact the usual full days work at the
navy yard irrespective of the order
granting Saturday half-holidays In ex-
ecutive departments.
President Mcconnell, of the Ma
chinists Union, has asked for an inter
view with Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Darling, at which the question Of
the Saturday half-holiday is to be dis
cUssed.

PER DIEM EMPLOYEES
GO TO ANNUAL ROLL

An order was issued today at the
District building transferring all per
diem employees of the District TO the an
nifal roll in accordance with the provi-
sions of the act of Congress passed at
the last session. The list of such en-
ployes is a long one. there being sew
er2l hundred in the engineer department
alone, in Commissioner Vests depart
ments and number of others in Com
missioner Macfarlands
Tho change has the result of reduc-
ing the net salary of the employees in
various sums ranging from 20 cents TO
$40. But II also provides for an annual
leave of absence which was not posi-
bic under the former system.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1905-07-01

Last summer half-holiday was given
the navy yard employees, but it is stated
that the system adopted did not operate
to the satisfaction of the authorities,
and today half-holiday was not given.
The whole mater is in the hands of
President Roosevelt, and he Will decide
whether the same plan will go into eff
feet this summer.
The employees at the Washington
Navy Yard are paid by the hour, and
the question has been raised as to their
legal right to pay when they are not
actually employed.
