An Order Issued by the Secretary of the ‘Treasury. Upon the adventof s new administration eabinet officers are overwhelmed with lection agencies which have bills against officials and employes of the various derart- ments calling upon the cabinet officers to aid them in the collection of their debts. Secretary Carlisle has received an unusually large number of letters of this character, which it would take considerable time for the employes of the appointment room, to which such matters are referred, to, answer. He does not consider it incumbent apon the ‘Seeretary of the Treasury to act in « judicial manner in these cases, and consequently he has promulgated the following order: “In view of the disputes continu- ously arising in reference to claims for indebtedness against the officers, clerks and employes of the department, and the impracti- cability of the Secretary acting in o judicial capacity in the settlement thereof, it is hereby announced that hereafter ‘The complaints of the above charac ier.” This action is simply a more strict interpretation of the jon reached by Senator Sherman when he was See: Secrotary Carlisle has further added to it by refusing to have the department answer the letters received in to matters of this kind. shay aime eae THE PRINCESS EULALIE.
