ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SURGEON @ENERAL OF THE NAVY. Surgeon General Gunnel of the navy, in his annual report, submits estimates amounting to WASHINGTON, D. C.. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1885. TWO CENTS. CHANGES IN THE OFFICES. Appointments by the President, Ete. The President to-day made the following ap- pointments: ‘Wm. Smith, of Red Lake Falls, Minn., tobe register of the land office at Crookston, Minn., vice Jno, Cromb, term expired. Winfield 8. Austin, of Seattle, W.

Mr. Albright performed similar duty some time © Secretary of the Treasury has appointed Edward P. Adams to be surveyor for the first ‘and second lighthouse districts, The New Rale at the White House. BAD FOR THE BARBERS, The President's order excluding office-seekers from the White House has been very effective. The number of callers requesting private inter- views is reduced to the minimum, and the President gets much more time to himself, Public men who call on the regular days are not questioned by the doorkeepers or refused admittance, but they understand that they ‘must restrict their conversation to business matters, and that any references to appoint ents would be extremely distasteful to the President and would injure rather than advance their objects. Some have been discourteous enough to violate their privileges, but they have generally been made to feel'that they have gained nothing by so doing. Generally Senators and Representatives have respected the President's wishes and left the question of the offices outside, or,when they have broached the subject at all, they have done so by diplo- matic hints, speaking more freely only as they felt that the President's interests had been awakened. ‘The hotel proprietors and barbers are louder in theircomplaints against the new rule than even the office-seekera. It it is kept up 13 will ruin us,” sald a bar as he ran his fingers through a STAR re] halr and then asked him in a despondent voice to look at the vacant chairs. “It is a direct blow at us. When the office-seeker had full Tun at the White House our chairs were full all the whe and men were waiting around for a chance. Six men jumped up every time we cried ‘next.’ Now look. There's the etlect of the new order! Empty!” Then he shut his lips tight and tucked a damp towel down the back of the reporter's neck. “You sce,” he added, relaxing a little as he rubbed his vie- tim’s head, “you see men who eall on the Presi dent for anoffice always want to make an im- pression and they go well barbered. The hotels ‘Were tall of office-seekers before that order went out, and every other morning the most of them got'shaved and spruced up to see the President. Some of them staid so long that they got to be regular customers. But now they are ail gone, or ifany of them still linger they have stopped etting shaved, and business is way down. then he whisked the cloth off the reporter's lap and erled “next,” but there was no next, +0.
