MACNEAGH APPEALS.-Secreta Mac
Neagh sent communication to Congress
to-day in which he appealed for authority
TO institute an up-to-date system of inspec-
ton Of the several Sub-TreasuEes of the
United States Mr.. MacVeagh pointed out
that the present appropriation Of 5000
year was insufficient. and that the law
which provides for biennial inspections is
Inadequate and faulty. Mr.. MacVeagh does
not ask an increased appropriation. how
ever, but merely for authority 10 utilize so
much OF the contingent fund Of the Treas
ury as may be necessary 10 insure proper
Inspection and effective safeguarding Of the
fund Of the government in the Sub-Treas =
uries. Mr. MacVeagh points out that the
inspections should not be made at fixed
times, when all officials OF the Sub-Treas-
ur!es know that an inspection is imminent
but that the Secretary Of the Treasury
should have authority to cause inspections
To be made at any time that his judgment
dictated and without warning TO the Off
Gals OF his purpose. precisely as is now
done in the case Of inspections Of the ma
tional banks. To that end, Mr.. MacVeagh
urges that he be permitted to use the con-
tingent fund to defray any expense beyond
the 5000 already appropriated which such
inspections may necessitate. Mr. Mac
Neaghs communication was referred TO the
Committee on Appropriations.
