CLERKS GIVEN MORE.
Pension Office Employees Are Treated
to a Surprise.

For the second time under the pres
ent administration, clerks in tae Tope-
ka pension Office today receive Il gen.
eral raise in salaries. 1t is the first
time in the history of the Office when
the government appropriation has been
fully used for clerk hire
Following general raise in the wage
scale in the pension Office shortly af-
ter the appointment of ". A. Smith
as pension agent, notices were served
today that a general increase would
become effective in the wage scale of
the Office. Almost every employee Of
the Office is included in the sweeping
increase and those who are exem pied
are mainly high officials. whose salaries
have been stationary for years.
The Office of chief clerk will remain
at $3.50 a year. No change is made in
the clerks whose salaries have been
$1,000 a year, but most of the others
received the benefits of the change.
Formerly the minimum pay for n clerk
in the Topeka Office was $3.50 a year.
Smith has arranged to raise these fig
ures to S1,020 a year. In the changes
made this month, Harry Ruff is pro
pension Office, under Elmer f. Miller,
who has held the position of chief clerk
for several months.
Under former administrations the
government appropriation for clerk
hire in the Topeka ONCE was never ex-
hausted and hundreds of dollars re-
verified to the government each year.
Col. Smith believes the government in
tends for him to use the money and
faithful in the Office. The change to-
day will mean the payment OF several
thousands dollars a year more in sal
aries to the employees of the office.

FRANCE MAY NOT REPLY
Probably win send Warship TO
Coast OF Morocco.

Paris, July 4.-Foreign Minister De
Selves did not remain in Paris today,
but accompanied President FalHeres to
Holland. It was announced that M De
Selves had changed his plans and
would stay here as consequence OF
the new situation brought about In
Morocco by the determination Of Ger
many to send a gunboat to Agadir.
Premier Caillaux has taken over the
conduct of the foreign office pending
Frances attitude concerning German
Intervention in Morocco.
AS France was merely notified OF
the fact accomplished, namely that
German warship had been dispatched
to Agadir 1t is possible that this gov
eminent will not send a reply to Ber-
lin. but like Germany, VIII decide
upon a course of action and then
adopt it.
1t is not unlikely that, after con-
sulting with Great Britain, France may
send a Warship to Agadir as the
Algeciras act authorizes the policing
of the Moroccan coast by France IN
conjunction with Spain. Although the
German action was sudden France had
been anticipating move OF some sort
by Germany because of SPANS extern
sion of her military operations in the
north of Morocco, a policy which
France has steadily opposed as leading
to the idea that the agreement or Al
geciras was dead and that Morocco was
to be dismembered. The French press
continues calm but urges the govern
ment to conduct the situation with a
firm hand.
The boursc opened weak today as Il
result of Germanys move. Prices were
lower all around. A slight rally later
in the day was followed by weakness
Of renewed offerings.
News DepFesses Stocks.
London, July 3.-The Moroccan scare
following the announcement that Ger
many would send a gunboat to Agadir
to the surprise and discomfort Of
France, depressed the stock exchange
at the early trading. Consols fell Il to
| 1875. Paris favorites, like Canadian
Pacific Tintos and De Beers gold
shares and Spanish and Portuguese
bonds were weak on sales from that
quarter. The spasm soon passed, how
ever, and at noon a general recovery
set in. Consols regained u, American
securities hardened a to g from the
lowest, although they were still well be-
| low parity.
