Washington, Sept. "A reform in
the personnel and business methods
of a sweeping and drastic nature will
be put into effect in the department
Of the interior within the next six
weeks or two months. 1t will result
In a saving to the government of more
than $4,000 a year. 1t involves nu-
merous transfers of clerks, the con-
solidation of two big bureaus, the
moving of one of the largest bureaus
I'm the department to the pension Of
fee building, in uniformity in the PEN
sion office and land Office blanks used
and the storage of the patent office
models in the pension office building.
Although there will be, according to
the present plans, no dismissal OF
clerks or other employees of the depart
ment, the total number of clerks en-
ployed will be diminished gradually
by allowing unnecessary offices that
become vacant to remain vacant.
The changes viii come as a result Of
the detailed reports of the government
experts named by Secretary Of the In

branch of the department and recon-
mend changes tending to more econo-

STRIKE OF TELEGRAPHER5
Both Sides Say That 1t Will End
Shortly.

New York, Sept. 2.-The strike of
telegraph operators will come to an
end soon according to prophesies made
by leaders and company managers.
The opposing leaders are by no
means agreed upon the conditions
which will bring about the settlement.
On that point they appear to be as
widely apart as at any time since the
strike began. Daniel L. Russell of
the Telegraphers' union said he is con-
ftdent that next Wednesday will see
a complete eapitulation of the COM
nanies. Superintendent Brooks of the
Western Union said he believed that
the empty pockets of the strikers will
lead to a solution of the trouble.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 2.-The Anglo
Russian convention has been signed.
1t regulates the respective interests
of the two powers in Thibet, Afghanis-

While the foreign office here, act

New York, Sept George APai-
mer, a wealthy farmer of Parksville,
N. Y, has brought suit for $4,000
damages In the supreme court against
John j. Reisler, proprietor of bar
Der shop at Thirty-eighth street and

his beard, of which he was quite
proud, was cut off by one OF Reisler's
employees, Palmer fell asleep in the
BARRIERS chair, he says, after having
told the man to simply trim his whis
kers, but the barber stupidity sheared
off all the whiskers and shaved his
face. The application of a wet towel
on Palmer's face awoke him, and when
he realized that his beard was gone
he sought a lawyer instanter and had
suit brought at once.

We're President Roosevelt, Secretary

counsel for the government.
The discussion was participated in
more especially by the president, Mr.

and Commissioners Knapp and Lane.
The conclusion was promptly reach
ed that however damaging the evi.
dence against Mr.. Hartman his testi-

nifty from criminal prosecution.
Commissioner Knapp explained that
he had not completed his investiga-

As soon as the interstate commerce

is not expected therefore that any i'm

PRESIDENTS SECOND VISIT.
II Was Georgia Day and Exposition
Managers Called II the Real
Opening.

Norfolk. Va, June 1.-THE James
town exposition management has de.
termined to look upon yesterday, the
occasion of President Roosevelt's sec.
ond visit, as the real opening. The
president lost no opportunity to voice
his approval of the showing made since
the backward opening of the exposi-
tion on April 26.
1t was Georgia day and the open
ing of Bullock hall, a replica of the
early home of President Roosevelt's
mother, at Roswell, Georgia, erected
as the Georgia state building, was the
feature that drew the president to the
exposition for a second visit.
From the time the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt and their guests were
landed at the government pier at 1850
a. M. until their departure at 4:37
o'clock in the afternoon every minute
was occupied. The president spoke
at the Georgia ceremonies from the re-
viewing stand and in the afternoon ad-
dressed the convention of the National
Editorial association in the exposition
auditorium. On both occasions he was
given an enthusiastic welcome. He
visited the Georgia building, the New
York building and the negro exhibit
and in drives over the grounds thous-
ands of people lined the streets and
gave him a continuous ovation.
The schedule arranged in advance
was followed to the letter and when
the Mayflower weighed anchor at 8
p. H. and the party started on It's re-
turn trip to Washington an unusually

The naval review in Hampton Roads
and the reception of the commanders

which preceded the presidents arrival
at the grounds, and the military re-
view on Lee Parade ground, following
the presidents forenoon address, were
similar to those events on the opening
day, except for some slight difference
IN the personnel of the participants.
