COUPLE ARRESTED
IN ROBBERY CASE
Man and Wife Taken at Union
Station as They Buy Rich
mond Tickets.

An attractive 22-year-old brunette
and her husband, wanted on robbery
warrants issued a few hours before,

travelling widely, working something
somewhat similar to the old badger"

man was lodged at No. l precinct.
Detective Thompson recovered the
wrist watch from the woman and abous
SIS from the husband, after he had Sc

Holds GalIinger Employees Pay
for Meals They Do Not
Actually Receive.
RECOMMENDS NEW SCALE
OF DEDUCTIONS BE MADE
Institution Shows Annual Profit
Of $6,648 From Overcharge
Against Workers.

Since Gallinger Municipal Hospital is
realizing an annual profit of S6,648
from employees who do not obtain meals
at the institution for which they are
charged, the Bureau of Efficiency has
drawn the matter to the attention of
the District Commissioners with the
recommendation that a new schedule Of
salary deductions for meals be adopted
Under the general practice of the
District government for institutions
under its care, deductions of $50
monthly for three meals a day are
made from the salaries of about 80 per
cent of the paid employees at Galhnger.
the Commissioners were advised. These
deductions are made regardless of the
meals actually furnished.
Way Plan Works.
AS the practice works out the non
professional group receives only about
II per cent of the meals for which
salary deductions are made The pro-
fessors and technical employees take
only about "a per cent of their meals
at the hospital.
Salary deductions for meals for non
professional employees. the bureau
pointed out, exceed the cost of the
meals furnished by monthly average
OF 1902. OF this amount 1854 is due
to salary deductions for meals which
employees do not eat. and S248 to profit
on meals actually furnished.
THE net result of this policy of max
ing fiat deductions for meals" says the
Bureau Of Efficiency, lis that in smany
cases the employees receive less COM
penSation than that to which they are
entitled under the amended classical
ton act Of 1923, and that the Gal
linger Municipal Hospital appropria-
ton is increased by a corresponding
amount. A deduction of S240 a year
without corresponding benefits consti-
tutes an unfair reduction in compen-
sation, which in many cases works
material hardship especially to those
employees whose positions are allocated
to the lower salary grade
May Stipulate Meals.
To solve the problem for employees.
most of whom eat at least one or two
meals a day at their own homes, the
Bureau of Efficiency suggests that each
employe may stipulate the actual num-
Der of meals he wishes on a six and
seven-day basis and be charged accord
ingly. The rates suggested range about
% to 25 cents meal, which allows
from to 8 cents margin above the
present cost.
On a six-day week basis the rate
would be from $3.50 a month for one
meal TO $3.50 for two meals, and
$3.50 for three meals per day The
corresponding rates on the seven-day
week basis would be $3.50, Sl4.50 and
$40.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
FOR SENATE COMPLETED

The work of installing new air cool
ing system in the Senate chamber and
galleries has been completed by the
Carrier Engineering Corporation and
will be ready for operation when the
upper branch of Congress reconvenes
August 10. to take up the tariff bill.
The new system similar to one in
stalled in the House, furnishes mechan-
lcal refrigeration equivalent to the melt
ing of $4,000 pounds of ice daily. When
the Senate floor and galleries are fully
occupied this is equivalent to $50 pounds
Of ice per person. Air is brought in
from a tower in the Capitol grounds.
It passes over oil filters to remove dust
and dirt, and is then forced through
water sprays before being conveyed to
the Senate.

BOY FINDS MANATEE
BONE ALONG RIVER
Prehistoric Remnant Is Believed
to Be 100000
Years Old.

The bone of a prehistoric manatee OF
sea COW, estimated by DR.. Remington
Kellogg of the National Museum as
about 100000 years old, was found a
few days ago in bank of the Lower
Potomac, near Compton, Md, by 49,
year-old Glenn K1otzbach of Clifton,
KY, who is spending the Summer with
his brother, Csrron Klotzbach, aboard
his yacht.
The ancient sea COW is supposed to be
direct ancestor of the present mana
tee, which still is found in Florida
waters, but is rapidly approaching ex-
tinction. 1t is mammal which, like
the whale and porpoise, has taken to
living like fish. 1t could not exist on
land.
