If Persons fail to make satisfactory settlement with the members they owe, after having been notified, that ie their fault, not the members’, and they have no right to complain if their name is put on record as being that of @ person unworthy of credit. I propose to pro- tect our members and will place on reeord the names of all persons reported to me as not paying their bills and furnish scopy of the record to all members, that they may know to whom credit should be refused. ‘None but dishonest persons will take offense at re- ceiving notice of their obligation toa member of this union, We would advise debtors to act promptly om receipt Of first notice, _ Very respectfully, 3.

WHAT I8 ASCERTAINED AT THE VARIOUS GOvErN- MENT DEPARTMENTS AS TO THE NUMBER WHO WILL DEPOSIT THEIR BALLOTS TOMORROw— LIVELY SCENES ABOUT THE RAILROAD STATIONS, The department clerks have taken more in- terest in the election which is to be held to- morrow than is usual in what is known as an off year, Many of them have rendered volun- tary assistance to the congressional committees at night and havo directed piles of campaign documents, A number had saved their annual leave until now when they would be enabled to do some good work in their respective con- gressioual districts, Those who live in states or districts which are considered close have taken the greatest interest in the campaign and have generally gone home to deposit their ballots, The example set by the President, Attorney General Miller, Treasurer Huston and other In- diana officials in going home has been preti well followed by the clerks from the Hoosier state, and it is stated that the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad have sold about 400 tickets to voters in Indiana, Ohio and Lilinois, Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt leaves tonight for his home at Oyster Bay, L.I. His stay will be a brief one. He will cast his vote for the republican p: and then come back. Solicitor General Taft leaves the city this afternoon for Cincinnati for the purpose of voting. He will return Wednesday. THE UPTOWN DEPARTMENTS. Except from the Treasury Department there has not been any very marked exodus of clerks for voting purposes this fall as affects those de- partments on the western end of tho line around the White House. The Treasury has contributed very generously to the voting popu- lation of the country, about 70 of the 3,000 clerks and employes having been granted leave, or 25 per cent, It is possible, of course, that these clerks include a number who are off on ordiuary vacations without any decided voting intentions. In the War Department, with its 1,700 om- ployes, the number of absentecs is about as usual, but it is not thought thatover 5 per cent have gone home to vote. A very few certifi- cates have been issued by the Secretary. There are 228 people on the rolls of the Navy Department, of whom about thirty-five are ab- sent, or about 15 per cent of all. ‘The State Department is wholly free from the yotiog epidemic. There are seventy em- ployes enrolled, of whom but two aro now away from their desks, One of these is in Europe and the other is a Washingtonian with- out avote. The Department of Justice has about ninety folks to look out for, of whom 9 or 10 per cent are away, all for voting purposes. ‘Thus in these five “uptown” departments there is un average absence of about 11 per cent of the whole force. THE POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT. Comparatively few employes of the Post Office Department have gone home to vote. Of the total number of clerks, namely, 615, it is estimated that about 100 are women. A large proportion of the men have either lost their residences in the states or do not con- sider that their votes are needed. The result is that only about fifty have left their desks in order to go to their homes and vote. At a presidential election, however, when the issues are supposed to be more important, it is estimated that about three times that number deposit their ballots at their homes. ‘he prin- cipal officials of the department, however, will exercise their right of citizenshi Mr. Wanamaker will vote in Philadelphia, the first assistant, Col. Whitfield, in Ohio and Gen. Hazen, the third assistant, in Pennsylvania. Mr. J. Lowrie Bell, the second assistant, will be acting postmaster general. Mr. Bell is paired with SB aemoerat and will not go home to vote, THE INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. It is difficult to form an estimate of the num- ber of employes of the Interior Department who will be at their homes tomorrow for the purpose of voting. The usual number of em- ployes on the rolls of the depart ment is 3.500, but the census affice isa bureau of the department and its force of employes, numbering now somo 2,300, adds about two-thirds to the clerical force. One- thiry of the entire force, itis estimated by the acting appointment clerk, Mr. Clarence G. Allen, who is an expert in statistics, are women, It is calculated that about 20 per cent of the male clerks go home to vote. On this basis the Interior Department will be reprosented at the polls tomorrow by nearly 800 clerks. Tho Secretary. Gen. Noble, bas a vote at his home in St. Lous, but he will not deposit it this year, Gen. Bussey, however, will go over to New York and cast his vote. Mr. Chandler, the first assistant secretary, who lives in Mis- souri, will keep the Secretary company in Washington. AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT. Maj. 8. S. Rockwood. chief clerk of the Agricultural Department, said that it was hard to tell how many clerks in that department had gone home to vote. It was impossible, of course, for all the clerks to take their regular leaves of absence at the same time during the hottest part of the summer, and a number of them wero off on their regular leave now. Whether they had gone home to vote or not he could not say, nor could he tell how many clerks are away without sending around to the various chicfs of division, In this way it was accertained that there were twenty-four absen- tees who had left for one reason or another. AT THE DEPOTS. Any casual visitor at the roailroad station to- day would have had little trouble in arriving at the conclusion that something was on hand, such asa picnic, an excursion or an election. ‘The temporary resident in Washington doesn’t stay here to do his voting, but girds up his loins and hies himself to some one of the states, and he doesn’t go by himself but takes his family and his cousins and his aunts. All the railroads offer reduced rates to voters going home and the average voter takes ad- vantage of this rate to take his family fora trip to the old home, ‘The Pennsylvania road, the Baltimore and Ohio, the Chesapeake and Obio and the Richmond and Danville have all had a share of the traffic which has been going on for some days, Today, however, is the busiest day, as the residents in the nearby states—Maryland and Virginia— have been get- ting their voting clothes on and moving out, VOTERS, DISTINGUISHED AND OTHERWISE. Among the voters, eminent and otherwise, who left this morning for their homes were the President and Attorney General Miller, who got off on the 11:50 express from the Penn- sylvania depot, both with neatly folded repub- Hean tickets in their vest pockets, Probably the banner states, so far as the number of voters who have from here are concerned, are New York and the New ‘land states, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Mary- land, Ohio, Indiana, New Jersey, Illinois, and Iowa. A surprisingly number of voters have this year gone west, while the Maryland and Vi people have fallen off somewhat in their usual quotas, The Maryland defection can be explained by the passage of the new registration law, which cut off so many former voters in that state. One Maryland club which last year sent over 400 voters into land will year have bard work to get out 100, iam: Va! baby dy vieg~d ticket offices in ad y disclosed the fact that something very 5,000 voters’ tickets had been sold in this city, has been said, however, this number many cases includes the families of voters x and thers who are merely taking advantage of the Feduced rate.

Indications point to a close contest. with odds slightly in favor of the republican candidate. Ashley will go out of this county with 1,800 majority, which will even up the democratic majority in the three outside counties. i SPEAKER REED ON NEW YORK.
