BILLINGS READS AN INTERESTING PAPER OX TRE BONES FOUND IN THE ZUNI REGION IN ARIZONA—OTHER PAPERS READ—INTEREST FELT IN THE ELECTION OF NEW MEMBERS. The second day's meeting of the National Academy of Sciences began in the lecture room of the National Museum today at 12 O'clock. Prior to this public meeting » private business meeting of the members of the acad- emy was held in one of the rooms upstairs. At this an election for vice president to fill the place made vacant by the resignation of Prof. 8. P. Langley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, was held. Gen. Francis A. Walker of Boston was the man chosen to fill this position of honor. Messrs. Geo. J. Brash of New Haven, Conn., Benj. A Gould of Cambridge, Mass., Prof. Simon Newcomb of Washington, Ira Remsen of Baltimore, Md., M. C. Meigs of Washington and Prof,’S. P. Langley of Washington. were elected additional members of the council. THE NEW VICE PRESIDENT. Gen. Walker, the new vice president of the academy, was superintendent of the census in 1870 and again in 1880. He is at present presi- dent of the Massachusetts Institute of Tech- nology. He is one of the best known scientific men in the country. He is president of the Thursday Club of ton and is connected with a number of the leading scientific societies of the country. Surgeon General J. 8. Billings of the Army Medical Museum read an interesting report on the human bones of the Heminway collection inthe United States Army Medical Museum, Prepared by Dr. Washington Matthews, U.S.., made under the direction of Mr. Frank Cush- among the village ruins in Arizona. r. Matthews recognized the possible value of these bones that were being found, in con- nection with the implements and tools. Dr. Wortman was sent out in November, 1887, with all facilities for hardening and preserving the bones as they were found. ABOUT THE ZUNTS” ze. Dr. Billings’ paper began by describing the localities where the bones were found. It is learned from Zuni folk lore that among these Indians it was customary to bury certain classes within the house and under the floor. The little children were often buried near the hearth, to be near the nourishing and cherishing fire spirit. The villages ex- amined ‘are estimated to have had a population of about 80,000, Las Muertas is thought to have had about 13,000. As to the antiquity of these relics it can only be said that the villages were complete ruins 350 ears ago. itis’ supposed. they aro at st 1,000 years old ‘and may be two or three times that old. ‘The specimens of bones found in these ancient cities were, for the most very badly broken when they reached this city, and it required the utmost care to put them inshapeagain. When this had been done the bones and skulls were carefully measured and studied by Dr. Matthews and as- sistants. Dr. Matthews made an extended re- port to the surgeon general and it was from this rt that Dr. Billings made extracts to thow the valuo of the work accomplished. ‘About sixty-nine sets of bones have come into possession of the museum, each represent- ing more or less of a skeleton. Among these bones many curious anomalies were found, as a ss many races of a Dr. iis lescril at some len; er wil the characteristics of these Salado bones, The skulls vary in size from the ordinary class down to the lowest form, the microcephalw; but it should be remembered that judging from the size of the bones the Saladoins were dimin- utive and slight in frame. One of the most in- ter features is the prevalence of the Inca bone, so called from its occurrence among the Peruvians. It 1s even more com- mon among the Saladoins. The Incas are re- moved from the rest of the human race, but the Saladoins are still farther removed. They ‘out-Inca the Incas. At the conclusion of the paper remarks upon special features of it were made by Messrs. Morse, Putnam, Cope and Brewer. REMAINDER OF THE PROGRAY. At this point an adjournment until 2 o'clock was taken for luncheon.

OFFICE DEPARTMENT. ‘When the Sixth Auditor's Force is Moved « Keadjustment Will Be Made. The large six-story building which has just been erected on E street opposite the Post Office Department building will be ready for ocenpancy about May 1. It was built for the accommodation of the clerks in the office of the sixth auditor's, who are now in the department building and in Marini’s Hall. It is reported that the six loots of this building, each containing about 6,000 square feet of space, will be sufficient to accomodate all the employes of this office. AN ENTIRE READJUSTMENT. The removal of these offices from the Post Office Department building will give much needed room and will enable an entire read- jastment to be made in the present arrange- ment of the building. Several of the divisions which are now in different parte of the build- ing will be brought together and provision will be made for office rooms for the new fourth assistant postmaster general. It is also proposed to utilize the room on the top floor of the department building by locat- there the postal museum which is to be es- tablished. Contributions have already been received from a number of f countries of articles illustratin the post service ond methods. The department library Tito be located in this room, STILL MANY BUREAUS OUTSIDE. The striking illustration of the discrepancy between the accommodations needed by the department and those actually supplied by the present department building is found in the inct that after the new building is occupied and Marini’s Hall given © department will still be paying $25,000 annually for the rent of buildings. The money order office, chesupply vision, the rey . PoRra| office and the sixth auditor's oftice will ail be outside of the department building. In the new building which is to be erected on street for the city post office a portion of te second floor will be available for the use of the Post Office Department. oe A COMMITTEE'S QUICK WORK. Award of the Contract for Stationery for the Anterior Department. Just now in all the various departments of the government committees are at work exam- ining samples of supplies of paper, pens, inks and other articles that come under the head of stationery for the purpose of awarding con- tracts to dealers to furnish these supplies for ‘the next fiscal year. As a rule these committees are occupied three or four weeks in perform- ing this duty, and during that time they are excused from othér duties. The record, however, has beer broken by the committee who made the awards for the Interior Department. They spent four dayson the work and on the fifth day made s report to the Secretary, which he at once approved, and on the nextday the printed list of awards was ready for distribution. The amount expended for stationery by the Interior De- partment is about #130,000 annually, and of the awards just made it is claimed by a mem- ber of the committee that the prices of 112 items were less than those of last year. In the case of eight items the prices were the same, while for forty-six items higher rates prevailed. ‘The Washington bidders who were awarded contracts were as follows: J. C. Addison, Wm. Ballantyne & Son, Hi Easton & Rupp, Melville Lindsay, E. Morrison Paper Company, John C. Parker, Geo. Byneal, jr., Fred. A. Schmidt, Wyckoff, Seamans & Ben- edict, The committee on award was es fol- lows: W. R. Lapham, J. W. Babson, Prof. Harry King, McKendree Downham and W. H- y' sitxetany FOSTER’S PLANS, How to Increase the Available Assets of the Treasury by Subsidiary Silver, Secretary Foster has decided upon a line of policy to increase the available assets of the treasury and at the same time piace the sub- sidiary silver now in the treasury in circula- tion. The plan is to exchange with national bank depositories silver half dollars for cur- rency. There are now two hundred na- tional bank depositories, holding $24,000,000 imeurrency. In the there 1s today $18,000,000 in silver half dollars. This frac- tional silver is unavailable for current busi- ness, The net surplus is less than $12,000,000, and the current receipts are not moro than keeping pace with the daily expenses. Within a month the Treasury Department will be called upon to make the quarterly payment on account of pensions—abont $30,000,000—with only about =12,000,000 to meet it. "The currency held by the national bank depositories if transferred to the treasury would make the available surplus 000,000 instead of $12,000,000. It is not THE DESERT.

Prospects of Russia and Bulgaria Meeting With Clash of Arms. Bentsx, April 22—A high official is quoted® as eaying that there is no danger to the peace of Europe during the summer, but, that the Russians will almost certainly tove on Bulgaria in the latter part of autumn, without attacking either Germany or Aus- tria; but leaving it to those powers to inter- fore if they see fit, such interference to be mob by France and Russia jointly, and that in each event the contestants would be Russia, France, Roumania and Servia against Germany, Aus tria, Italy and B The bigh official thought that Turkey's attitude would be doubtful. A Vienna dispatch says that Minister Stem- buloff of Bulgaria is resolved to force the hand of Russia by an attack on Servia, and that « Tupture between the two states is ble, which case Prince Alexander would be invi to assist Prince Ferdinand in maintaining his throne. The Servians understand Stambuloff's WAR PROBABLE 1 purpose, and do not like it, as their army is not equipped as well as the Bulgarian, but will be Inter in the year, The kaiser has emphasized the semi-official assertion of friendly feeling between Germany and Russia by ordering three regiments of in- fantry and one of the cavalry to reinforce the troops on the Silesian frontier.
