TO ASK MORE DATA
ON APPROPRIATIONS
CONGRESS NOT WELL ENOUGH
INFORMED OF PLANS
Senators Purpose to Know in Future
Just How Money Is to Be Ex-
pended by the Cow
eminent

WASHINGTON, March 22.-There
will be a new order in the making of
appropriations in the present congress
IL the purposes of several senators are
realized after congress assemblies in
the first regular session next December.
These senators are looking forward
to some plan by which congress may
be fully informed concerning the ex-
penditure of government money which
it is declared is now known only in a
general way
1t is understood by many members
of the senate that the method of au-
ditlng accounts in some of the depart
ments is one that permits the approval
of vouchers for expenditures that are
not actually made but which stand
for items of expense that would not
so readily meet popular approval II
plainly named.
There will be an effort to reduce the
appropriations for these vague pur-
poses and to confine them as far as
possible to specific purposes and then
to overhaul the accounting systems of
the departments so that congress VIII
have greater access to the exact pur-
poses for which the money has been
put.
It is said the process of short cir
cutting congress in the expenditure of
appropriations, referred to in the de-
bates of last session by Mr.. Hemen-
way, has been carried on extensively in
several departments.
Just what plan will be adopted to
allow congress to follow appropria-
lions when their expenditure has not
been determined, but several senators
are now giving a great deal of thought
to what they regard as an important
matter in regard to the financial mat
ters of the government

VASSAR GIRLS QUIZ
STATESMEN AT ALBANY
Peach Basket Hats in Assembly Hall
as They Get Points for Debate
on Primaries

ALBANY, March 21-The Vassar girl
is going into politics. She will make
her debut by solving the direct nom
nations problem. Six types of her, as
distinct and as fascinating as the ons-
inal Gibson girls, invaded the state
capitol in search of data for a mighty
forensic battle to be fought at the
famous woman's college soon.
The Vassar emissaries, two blondes
and four brunettes, three in peach bas-
ket hats, set rakishly over peachlike
compilations, and two in picture hats
trimmed with spinach and other Vege-
tables, shrouded their identities with
veil of mystery.
1--WE do not want to get in the pa
ers." they told Speaker WadsWcrth.
I'VE want all the information we can
get about Gov Hughes efforts to puri-
fy the politics of the state. We've all
read lots and lots of things about IL
and are going to debate it on Saturday
night. Three OF us, headed by Eunice
here, are for direct nominations, ana
Clarice and her supporters are against
them. We want to talk to the men
who know all about both sides, If you
please"
The speaker sent for the leaders of
the warning factions and requested the
statement to illuminate the situation,
Mr.. Allen of Chautauqua and Mr..
Green of Brooklyn supplied instruction
for the pros, and the speaker and Mr..
Francis of New York for the ants.
The Young women sat in the assembly
chamber with half the members rub
boring" at them. The girls knew just
what they wanted, and their questions
indicated that they either were Wen
coached or had read up on the subject.
A statesman who attempted to inject
some humor into the interview was re-
buked by Miss Clarice. I'VE are really
serious about this, you know" she
said, land hope that you will not re-
gard it as a jest. We know all about
the question and are not to be treated
with ridcule."
A feature of the controversy about
which the Vassar girls did not con-
Germ themselves was the efforts OF the
machine leaders to agree upon bill
giving the governor the shadow rather
than the substance of the reform he
demands. The Woodruff organization
of Brooklyn is sending along a Dill,
mandatory in form, and designed to
complicate the situation.

SUITED IN SCORE OF 10 TO 2IN
FAVOR OF .. II. S.

The Pensacola High School won
their fourth straight game yesterday
afternoon. taking it from the team of
the First National Bank by a score
of 10 to ,. The feature of the game
was the pitching of Mr. Bull, who
struck out - men, walking only one,
and allowing but hits, and also the
catching of Coleman and Second
Baseman Anderson.
The playing of these youngsters is
4 revelation and is due largely to the
coaching of Prof. Bull. Their team
work is great. and it would not be a
bad idea for some of the older base
ball players to take in a few of the
games.
The p. H, S. will go to BrewtOn for
a series of games on the 2lSt and
22nd of this month.
