Custom House Employees
Given Salary Increase
Collector Newton Succeeds in
Obtaining Raise for About
1890 Examiners and Others

byron n. Newton, Collector of the
Port. returned Yesterday from Wash
ington, successful at last in his re-
peated efforts 70 get salary increas ases
for Custom House employees. In
creases of from 5000 to 5000 a year
will be received by about 1900 en-
ployees, the higher pay being retroac-
tive 10 July /.
Laborers, who get the least of any,
are not included among those whose
salary is raised. Their wages are fixed
by an act of Congress passed several
years ago, and the Treasury Depart
ment has no authority to change it.
Collector Newton has made an ap-
peal on behalf of the elevator opera
tors in buildings under his control
and believes that he will be able to
obtain more pay for them. They get
from s720 to s840 a year and can get
much more at jobs in other buildings.
So many Of them quit that recently it
was necessary to discontinue service
in four elevators in the Custom House.
The biggest increase in pay will 90
TO examiners at the Appraisers Stores.
Under the old scale some of them re-
ceived only $1,000 year although ex-
pert and responsible men were re-
Quired.

Nine Army Corps Areas
Await Bakers Approval
Order Abolishing Six Depart
ments Prepared Under Terms
Of Reoroanizafion Bill

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-An order
abolishing the six departments of the
army and establishing nine corps areas,
as provided in the army reorganiza-
ton act, has been prepared in the War
Department and is awaiting the ap-
proval Of Secretary Baker.
The departments which would be
abolished are the Northeastern, Boston,
Major General Edwards commanding;
Eastern, Governors Island, N. Y, Major
General Bullard commanding; Central,
Chicago, Major General Leonard Wood
commanding; Western, San Francisco,
Major General Liggett commanding;
Southern, Fort Sam Houston, Tex,
and the Southeastern, Charleston, S.
c., Major General Morrison command
ing.
The geographical boundaries of the
nine corps areas have not yet been
announced. Each area would be under
a major general. as are the present
army departments of the country, and
there would be located in each four
divisions. Two of these would be re-
serve organizations, which would exist
largely on paper and would be called
only in case of national emergency
One division would be of regular
troops and the fourth of National
Guard.
Neither the regular nor National
Guard division would be at full war
strength, but under plans now being
prepared thev could be recruited to
that strength when the necessity arose
A full quota of officers drawn from the
officers reserve corps would be avail
able for these divisions at all times.
