CIVIL SERVICE PENSIONS.
Some Form of Protection In Old Age
 Necessary Step.

From the New York Tribune.
 The secretary of the treasury has been making a careful investigation of the ef- ficiency of the several bureaus of his de- partment, and has arrived at the con clusion that some method of pensioning the superannuated will alone make pos- sible that business-lilxe administration at which he aims. This conclusion has been reached by other members or the cabinet with regard to their departments. Secretary MacVeagh purposes to make the recommendation of some form of old age pension an important part or his frst annual report and there is reason 10 De- lieye that the recommendation Will re- ceive the indorsement of the President. Civil service reform has prevented those wholesale changes in personnel, sweeping out young and old alike, that character ized the old spells system. Consequently there Is a large number of indivlduals Tn the service who have grown too old to be useful Of course, by every law or economy and thrift they should have saved something from their comparatively generous compensation to care for them in their old age. As matter or rnct' they have almost to a man, and woman, saved nothing. The head of department striving for businessf-like administration must dismiss them, regardless Of the want and suffering that may entail, must practically pension them, putting them in minor positions with the disadyantnge that even there they clog the wheels of business and contribute to a low standard performance, or must secure from con gress authority to retire them on reduced pay. .
 Under the circumstances some form or old age pension seems unacceptable. IL ID important, then, that the best form pc divscd--one which will entail minimum of expense on the government and re- oufre from the date of it's installation that the employees themselves shall contribute m to a fund for which to care for tnen seniors, and for themselves whsn tne'x

Washington, October 23.-According to a report received at the state department from Charles N. Daniels, United States consul at Sheffield, England, the English are as enthusiastic over the rolling skat- ing fad as the people were in this coun- try some years ago, when nearly every town in the country had it's skating rink, with an accompanying number of elope- ments during the season.
 Consul Daniels reports that roller skat- ing, which grew into great popularity in England last winter, promises to con- tinue this season as well. He says:
 An American firm of rink managers last winter fitted up the drill hall in Sheffield as rink, and appear to have caught the popular fancy. A local com pany formed to construct and operate a rink opened it to the public on July 91.

time comes. Under such an arrangement tbe government should make up the de- fciency only, for the interval, possibly ten years, before which the sum raised by deduction from salaries becomes suffi- cient to meet the demand. A large ma 1ority of the employees favor such system
 and 1t is believed that the government will itself save money by its adoption through the increased expedition and ac-

ENGLISH ARE GOING WILD
 ;. OVER ROLLER SKATING

The patronage is reported to be all the promoters expected.
 While this rink is furnished with skates to rent, there seems to be an inclination on the part of the patrons to own their own skates. Roller skates, principally of American manufacture, are offered CT sale by many stores in the city. As Sheffield is no exception to other indus trial cities of the midlands, England, it seems, ought to furnish a market for roller skates worth the attention of American manufacturers, at least, while the desire for this sport lasts.
 The government clerks who constitute the Clerks Retirement association are hopeful that Congress will, next winter, respond to their appeal for legislation to provide a retirement fund for superannu- ated employees in the classified service. An experimental bill, making provision

Theoretically, such a system is of course, paternalism. Practically. 1t seems to be a necessity, and the sooner the con- dition is recognized, despite theory, the sooner will work in the federal depart ments approximate that standard so earnestly desired by the department heads and by that part of the public which has to do with the federal service.

Tor federal employees, employed in Wash ington, was authorized to be favorably reported to the House in the closlna days of the last Congress
 It was known as the GiIlett retire. ment bill. It's provisions did not apply to government employees outside of Wash ington. This was considered fatal de- feet, and no doubt had an influence in holding up it's consideration.
 There is no question but what there is much sentiment in Congress in favor of some such legislation. It is believed by the advocates of civil pension that the civil service has reached a point where 1t is necessary to do something for superannuated clerks in the executive de- partments.
 Secretary of the Treasury MaoVeagh, who has been conducting an investiga- tion of the business methods of the de- partment and the records of the em- ployes, is said to be friendly to the pro- posed scheme for retirement of super annuated clerks, as recommended by the Clerks Retirement association. There is good reason to believe he will have some- thing interesting to say on this subject in his annual report to Congress.
 It is said he has data to prove that if the work of his department is to be kept up to date 1t will be necessary to in- crease the clerical force. The secretary does not want however. to unnecessarily increase the expense for help, and this could only be avoided by dropping the superannuated employees and calling on the civil service for younug blood
 It Is not known that the Clerks Re- tirement association Is spending large sums of money to bring about the legis- 1ation they have been vigorously pushing for several years. Probably their cause is one that does not require the use of money.
 Japan has recently issued an order re- garding emigrants that cannot help but please the people of the Pacific coast. It provides that a record be kept of every Japanese who comes to this country. This information was but recently re- ceved by the state department and was forwarded by George H. Scidmore, United States consul at Kobe, Japan.
 MT. Scidmore says the Japanese au- thorities have recently enforced regula- tons for the better Identification of emil grants destined for the United States. Under these regulations, he says, an in- tending emigrant is photographed by the police officials at his place of domicile and a duplicate print forwarded to the police officials at the port of departure for the United States.
 After being examined by an American medical officer those advised that they are free from disease are bathed disin- fected and put aboard a ship. One hour before sailing, during inspection, pass ports, together with duplicate photo- graphs are handed to the emigrants. These photographs are taken up by the police officers aboard ship. The impress of thumb marks is also required upon passports.
 It is believed these regulations will prove effective in preventing substitution among emigrants.
