Superintendent McDonald, of the money- order service, has submitted his annual report to the Postinaster General, The 30th of last June closed the twentieth full year since the money-order system was put In operation. The first year, 1866, there were 766 money-order offices, and the issue of orders that year and the payments amounted to_a little less than $4,000,000. Now there are 7,355 money-order offices, with orders issued annually amounting to $120,000,000 and payments nearly as much. ‘The total receipts for fees the first year were a ttle over $35,000. They now aggregate almost a million dollars annually. ‘The gross revenue of the system has increased from $7,000 the first year to an average of $250,000. For the last fiscal year the number of money orders issued was 7,725,893, amounting to $117,358,921.27, and’ the payments exceeded the issue by $137,283.79. ‘The total tees were $923,930.55. ‘Tere was u slight falling off, amounting toa little over three per cent, which, is attributed to business stagnation and the in- creased use of postal notes. The number of postal notes Issued last fiscal year was 058,287, of the total value of $9,996,27. ‘The’ tolal_ amount or payments ‘und’ repay: ments was $9,948,023,.80, The fees amounted to $152,018.58. During the year 138 cases, of lost Femiliances, involving $11,550.75 were re- rted. Phe total number of erroneous payments al- leged to have been made during the year was bd, or-in the Tutio of one to every 145,527 money orders, In 59 cases, involving $1,2 56, the paying stinusters were held responsi- ble, ‘Lhe receipts of the service were 3925,. 125,03 and the expenditures were $681,150.06, leaving a net revenue of $243,974.97. The re- ceipts of the postal note business were $152,- 018.58 and the expeditures $91,275.82. I cess of receipts over expenditures, $60,742.76.

The report of the commissioners of the Sol- diérs’ home for the year ending September 30) 1885, shows that the amount avallabie for the year was $267,000.15. The expenditures amounted to $243,468.98, leaving an available balance at the end of the year of $23,531.17, The expenditures Included $17,531.55 for the new annex building, so that the regular ex. pense of maintaining the home was $170, 937.4 One hundred and ninety-two dis_ charged soldiers received their original admis. sion to the home during the year, equal to the number for the preceding year, which was the largest since the establishment of the home, ‘The number of men who in any given period seek the benefits of the home atter leaving the service is a very small percentage of those dis- charged from the service under circumstances which appear to give them the right to its ben- efits. This is significant, in view of the fact that large number of these disabled men must in a few years seek an asylum somewhere, and the Soldiers’ home will undoubtedly have to re- ceive and maintain them, IMPROVEMENTS, ‘The extension to the north wing of the main building was completed and occupied last No- vember. In the basement of the extension a comfortable amusement room was fitted up with billiard and bagatelle tables, and proved very satisfactory to the fnmates. ‘The new dormitory was completed in October. It is now oevcupied and will accommodate about 200 men, thus relieving the overcrowded «| and’ hospital. Enlarged accommods ‘all kinds for future wants will be considered as soon as the matter can be taken up. The dairy department earned $2,604.72 during the year, and Eee) of farming operations ‘were 34,912.09, The report states that there has been A VERY GREAT INCREASE IN DRUNKENNESS during the year, One hundred and nine cases were admitted to the hospital for inebriations against 50 cases the preceding year, The cause for this is laid by the governor at the door of the existing law for the disposition of the pen- sion money of inmates. About one-tenth of the pensioners assign their pensions to relatives. ‘be other nine-tenths, on whose account mor than $10,000 is paid Verte to the treasurer of the home, are permitted to draw small sums from time to time, while the larger amount remains undrawn while they are inmates. This fund becomes a good basis for credit at the grog shops, and is a constant temptation to those easily influenced. In many cases the possessiun of the money, which must be given to dis- charged pensioners, is the sole object in leaving the home. In a few days the money is squan- dered, and the commissioners are asked to readmit a destitute old soldier. There are actual cases of this description in the almshouse in this city, It is considered impossible to secure remedial legislation by Congress, and the com- | missioners are compelled to fix a limit to the number of such missions, and to permit the pensioner to enjoy his pension and his liberty without Interval. RECOMMENDATIONS, Attention is again called to matters requiring | Congressional action—a more speedy settlement of accounts in the Treasury department; the expense of keeping insane members of the home at the insane axylum: the appropriation of a reasonable amount to pay the home for round taken for a national cemetery. It may necessary to usk for special authority to con- vey to the District of Columbia about halt an acre of ground, appraised at $1,000, for the new reservoir. ‘The governor and treasurer in their reports mention the need of lezislation to define and te the administration of discipline, and todirect the disposition of moneys left by de- ceased intnates. The benefits of the home are conterred upon enlisted men who have been placed on the retired list in accordance with the decision of the Secretary of War of July 11, 1885. o—______ THE NEW CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.
