Reorganization Under. the Kellogg Bill. Changes—What th: re to be— = How Broug! About, Ete, After the close of business hours in the Treasury department to-day the force of the department is to be reorganized under what is known as the Kellogg bill, which passed the Senate and House of Representatives in the expiring hours of the last session of Con- gress, to become operative upon the close of We fiscal year ending June 30th, 1875. HISTORY OF THE BILL. The original bill for this reorganization was introduced in the House of Representa- lives by Mr. Conger, of Michig: ry. 1874, and was referred to the Committ on Reform of the Civil Service. It was sub- sequently referred to_a sub mittee eon- sisting Of Messrs. Kellogg of Connectieat Woodford of New York, and Sayler of Ohio This committee. in the exercise ofits duties, personally visited every bureau and division of the Treasury department, so as to make the members conversant with the actual neeessities of each. THE RILL REPORTED IN THE HOUSE. On the Lith of April, 1874, the committee reported the bill back to the House with a favorable recommendation, and it was made the special order for April 28th. Notwith- standing every effort to have action taken on it, it went over at the end of the session as unfinished business. During the Interval from the end of the first session until the commencement of the second session of the 45d Congress, Mr. Kellogg, who had charge of the bill, visited Washington several times and secured the endorsement of Secretary Bristow and Assistant Secretary Conant to its provisions. Upon the assembling of the second session the bill was reintroduced in the House, and was made the special order for February 15th, 1575. Meanwhile Mr. Hooper. a member of the Committee on Ways and Means, died, and his funeral being appointed for the day upon whieh the bill Was lo have been considered, it again met a cheek, there being but one hour left after the funeral services Which could bedevoted to it. Even, with this disadvantage, however, the bill passed the House by yeas 17s, nays 30, and was sent to the Senate, and there re- ferred to the Committee of Civil Service and Ketrenchment, and was left by it to slam! in the pigeon-holes of the elerk’s desk. Be- coming assured that the committee did not taking any action upon the bill, jogg obtained permission of the House to ofier itas an amendment to the sun- and with th was sent the Senate, and ai rd struggle adopted in commit ference about one hour before the Sy * hammer fell in each house ajjouraing them sine die. 2 SOME FEATURES OF THE BILL. It is Just twenty-two years since the pre- vious reorganization of the department. For at least ten years past Congress has been met by requests from the head of the Treasury d-partinent asking it to provide for reorgan- ization by law, and at each session, it will be remembered, every secretary has been berated for having chiefs of divisions and a large foree of employes not provided for by law; but who, vear after year, were paid by special appropriation bilis, The salaries of the auditors were fixed by law at $3,000 per annum in i799 and in 1 the last of them, the Sixth Auditor's, more than fifty years ago. The salaries of those offices thus fixed at $3,000, ha while others then fixed at $ ant have been raised to $4,500, and above tha’ PRESENT AND PROSPECTIVE FORCE. On the 3ist of December, 1873, there were employed in the Treasury 2,675 persons, with an aggregate annual compensation of $3,- 361,753.95. Under the Kellogg bill the num- ber of employes is fixed at 2,201 persons, with an aggrecate annual compensation of S2,- 331,183.50, showing a reduction by the bill of $34 employes and @ reduction of $507,400.45. 5 IN SALARIES. sof the changes in sala- 31,000, Instead of $3,000 as the chief clerks are made ors, With a salary of $2,500, in- $ 0 as tow. The bill also in- ereases the compensation of heads of divi- sions from $1,00 to $2,100, and increases the ~waries of the ehief clerks in the two con- (roliers’ offices from. $2,000 to $2,800. Office of the Secretary.-The pay of the chief clerk is increased from W Lo 33,000. The office of principal clerk and assistant clerk are abolished, and the office of chief of divi- sion and assistant chief are created aad for the first time are recognized by law. THE TITLE FEMALE CLERK is abolished, and instead they are classed as clerks without any designation as to sex, with an annual salary of 800. Three clerks at $2,100 each are added to the division of loans in place of those at $1,400. The force in the Secreta ry’s office is the same as by the appropriation bill of last year, but largely reduced from what it was at the time the bill was originally introduced in Congress. Ten laborers at 3720 and ten at #2.25 per day are abolished, and twenty at $000 added. “The additional pay to the chief clerk as superintendent of the Treasury building is abolished, so that the actual in- crease in the salary of this office is $500. THE OFF 1CES PROVIDED FOR EY THE NEW LAW. The force in the Secretary's office hereto- fore were appointed under no less than twelve different acts, extending from March 3d, 1853, to June, 1874, besides those provided for by appropriation bills from year to year. All now employed will be under what is known &@s the act of March 3d, 1874.

It is now established at $4,500. The office of assistant register was created February 20th, 1563, at $2,000; it is now made 2.500. “The chief clerk is now abolished, £2,000, and a deputy register created : By the appropriation bill of 1574 chiefs of division were provided for at 2,500, being $500 more salary than that paid to their superior officers, viz., the assistant register and ebief clerk.

OFFICES ABOLISHED. By an examination of the bill it will be seen that no assistant messengers are pro- vided for, or female clerks. copyists, or coun- ters. The bill designates those now thus employed as clerks at $900 each. In no por- tion of the bill is sex distinetively provided for, except in the single instance of the female assorters of money orders in the Sixth Auditor's office. In the loan section of the Secretary's office the female employes are calied copyists and counters, and in the reg- ister’s office, counters and copylsts. Itwas the intention to have had them all classed as clerks, but in the hurry and confusion at the end of the Congressional session, amend- ments were made which changed the char- acter of the title. WHEN THE CHANGES WILL BE ANNOUNCED. All the changes (that is, dismissals or ap- pointments) made under the bill will be an- ndunced to-morrow. Many of those now oc- cupying positions as chief clerks of the con- trollers’ and auditors’ office will be pro- moted to the new office of deputy, which has been created. It is not anticipated that there will be more than one or two devia- tions from this. in the Treasurer's office Captain J. Gilfil- lan, now chiet of the warrant division of the Secretary's office, will be appointed cashier, and will be succeeded by Captain Powers, now chief of the Register’s office. Itis expected that a large number of dis- missals will be sent out to-night. ON THE RAGGED EDGE. The clerical employes in the respective bureaus of the Treasury are considerably agitated to-day, in view of the fact that under the reorganization bill some fifty will be discharged. At 2 o'clock the documents were ready for distribution, and* will be given to the unlucky ones after the close of business hours. THE FOLLOWING APPOINTMENTS under the bill have been made in the office of the Secretary to-day: J. T. Powers, chief of division of warrants; assistant chief of division, Wm. F.

Major Fulton, when firing, lies on his back crossing its legs; turning slightly to the right, he places the but of his rifle over his right shoulder, and grasps it with his left hand, thus hold- ing it as ina vise.
