Especial Correspondence to Morning Journal

Chicago, Aug. 9.-Now the cost of
summer vacations has been computed,
compiled and totaled-at $525,000 for
Chicago and a grand total for the
United States of 500. 600, 900 of
which sum the benefieiaries are legion
and largely rural. Greater efficiency
is the reason given for these vacation
expenses, at business investment. Ac-
cording to a schedule compiled, yaca-
ton expenses average sl5l.79 Of
which business houses pay a share.
The west is catching up with the east
in his regard, but Uncle Sam, as re-
suit of custom, stands the heaviest eX-
pense for the junketing of employees,
the total being six million dollars each
year, according to the figures Of an
official in the treasury department.
Uncle Sans employees are by custom
entitled to thirty days vacation dur
ing the year and an extra thirty days
sick leave. receiving full pay for the
sixty days Of idleness. Fully seventy
five per cent OF the number contrive
to get their full time on sick leave"
