REPORT WAITED
On DRY LAW

The fate of the Alexandria city
dry law will be decided tomorrow
night when city council receives
the report prepared by City Man
ager Lawrence, City Sergeant R.
H. Cox and Captain Arnold on
the income and cost of the dry
ordnance.
Fines from dry law violations
have dropped from $4,000 a
month in 1880 and 1881 to less
than $500 a month for 1888, and
the cost of feeding dry law vio-
lators who go to Jail will deter
mine whether the ordnance will
be repealed.
The decision in the cases Of
the three lunchroom operators
who are to be tried tomorrow on
charges of possession of 80 beer
also will influence the council in
determining the future of the
dry law. For the past year nearly

Floating 80 Garden
To Be Anchored Off
Alexandria Pier

A floating beer garden on the
edge of Alexandria, in dry Vir.
ginia, will soon be a fact if cur
rent reports prove true.
Although Virginia prohibition
laws turn thumbs down" on
the sale of beer, several resi-
dents of Alexandria are plan
ming to anchor a barge in the
Potomac, a few hundred feet
from the city wharf, connecting
the same with land by a small
pier. Beer would be sold on the
craft which would be in waters
under the jurisdiction of the
District of Columbia.
Similar structures are operat-
ing at other Potomac River
points, immune from the Vir.

INDIAN SCHOOLS
GUT, To CLOSE

Several Indian schools and two
Sanitoria in the Far West will be
closed in line with the economy
program of the Interior Depart
ment, it developed today from a
ruling of Comptroller General J. R.
McCarl, which held that the
schools might be closed, but that
only 10 per cent of the funds pro-
vided for them could be used for
other purposes.
The ruling was made in re-
sponse to a communication from
the Secretary of the Interior, call
ing attention to the fact that
funds available for the depart
ment this year have been greatly
curtailed, the Indian Service hav-
ing suffered to the extent OF
about $4,000,000.
There are Is non-reservation
boarding schools for Indians, the
total appropriation for which in
1884 will be $3,755, 900, a much
smaller sum than was available
this year.
The secretary felt that the only
way to meet the reduction was to
close the non-reservation schools
at Genoa, Nebr.; Mt. Pleasant,
Mich; Fort Apache. Ariz.; Salem,
Ore, and Rapid City, S. D., as
we'll as the Pyramid Lake Sani-
tarium in Nevada and the La
guna Sanitarium in New Mexico.
The Comptroller Generals rul-
ing is that it is for the Depart
ment to decide whether schools
shall be closed, but attention is
called to a provision of the law
whereby only 10 per cent of the
funds provided for these schools
may be diverted to other pur-
poses.
The remaining 90 per cent
saved must go back into the gen.
eral fund of the Treasury. the
ruling holds.

2U.S. UNIONS
LAUNCHED
Split in Ranks Has Weakened
Their Cause, Federation
Group Believes

The American Federation of
Federal Employees today an
nounced an aggressive campaign
to reunite Federal workers whose
ranks were split when the Ma
tional Federation of Federal En-
ployes withdrew from affiliation
with the American Federation Of
Labor.
A communication signed by the
national campaign committee OF
the American Federation of Gov
ernment Employees, which remains
associated with the American
Federation of Labor, asserts:
SEE CAUSE WEAKENED
"By separating from the A.
F. Of L., the leaders of the Ma
tiOnal Federation of Federal
Employees unquestionabIy weak
ened the cause of every Gov
ernment emplOye. AS a mat
ter of fact, it may be mentioned
that since the N. F. E. E. aban-
dOned its fellow workers in
organized labor, Federal en-
ployes have suffered pay cuts,
loss of sick and annual leave,
and other privileges, along with
the prestige of their former
strong organization.
"It is apparent that these
actions on the part of the
N. F. F. E. officers have re-
suited in disaster to their own
hopes and plans, and it is also
evident that Government Off
cials have awakened to the
course of these N. F. F. E. Off.
cialS."
The statement then quotes q
letter from John P. Simpson
president of the Interstate Com
merce Commission branch Of
Local No. 2, N. F.. F. E., submit
ting his resignation from that posi-
on the ground that he considers
the break with the A. F.. Of l.
"unwise and unwarranted." The
letter expresses the opinion that
since the break Federal employees
have lost as much as they hao
hitherto gained in Is years work
Demand Solidarity
The field also demands solidar
ity among Government workers
the committee asserts, and a state
ment by a speaker at a mass
meeting of Federal employees ir
Yakima, WASH, is quoted to this
effect.
The national committee an.
nounces as it's program restora'
ton of all lost pay, and of al
lost privileges; 30-hour. S.
day week, with no reduction ir
pay; liberalized retirement, with
optional but not compulsory fea'
lures; employe representation II
personnel matters: maintenance
and expansion of the merit
system; a fair promotion system
for all employees; and fair anc
equable classification.
Members of the national com
mittee feel that in view of May
statistics showing rising living
costs, and recent exceptiona
activity of the A. F. of L. il
organizing new trades, whereby it
membership has been largely in
creased, the time is ripe to reunit'
the two wings of the Fedora
employees movement.

REP.SNELL HITS
ECONOMIES"

Although Democrats claim the
recent special session OF Congress
made an extraordinary record for
economy, Representative Smell OF
New York, Republican leader,
issued a statement today declaring
it is the most extravagant peace
time Congress in history.
Representative Buchanan CD OF
Texas, chairman of the House Ap'
preparation Committee, contends
Congress effected savings of $780,
100000 to 100000 in the cur
rent expenses of government,
while admitting that emergency
expenditures reached new high
levels.
Smell declared the Democratic
Administration is engaged in fool
ing the public by dividing current
and emergency expenditures.
Had the Republicans adopted
this course, he said, the first
$9O3, 100000 deficit of the Hoover
administration would have been a
$3.50, 100000 surplus.
The recent special session, he
declared. appropriated approx
mately $4,4OO, 100000 in 100 days.
In addition, he said, Congress
authorized $8.560.000.000 in new
Government bonds or securities,
including the farm and home
mortgage issues, for which the
Government only guarantees in
terest. He said
with the issuance of these
bonds, our Understanding pub
lie debt will exceed by $5,OO0,-
100000 the peak of our public
debt during the World War"

FOE Of INDIA

Church yesterday. Because Of it,
trade and business are at a stand"
