We have been watching and waiting for an offering in the Linen market that would let loose some of the better values at prices we could call bargains.

Mr. Curtis, acting secretary of the treas- ury, has made an important change in the rules governing the granting of leaves of absence to clerks and employes of that de- partment, which change probably has a bearing on the coming election. Hereto- fore leaves of absence were granted by the Secretary only in cases where the applica- tions had received the approval of the head of the bureau or office in which the appli- cant was employed. Unless such applica- tions were favorably considered by the head of the office they never reached the Secretary of the Treasury for action one way or the otier. Under this system the head of the office had almost absolute dis- cretion In the matter of granting or reject- ing applications for leaves of absence. While the Secretary might possibly t an application bearing the approval of the proper bureau officer, he would have no knowledge of applications which had been disapproved by his subordinates. Believing that this system was defective, and that it gave opportunities for favor- itism by bureau chiefs, the acting secre- tary has issued an order directing that hereafter all applications for leave of ab- sence shall be sent to the Secretary for his final action, regardiess of the views of the bureau chiefs in the matter. The order in- cludes in its scope all the bureaus and di- visions of the Treasury Department in this city. in effect, it makes the Secretary of the Treasury responsible for the denial, as well as for the approval, of these applications. The immediate cause of this change in the rules is said to have b the action of Mr. George A. Howard, auditor’ of the treasury for the Post Office Department, He is reputed to be a free silver democrat, and he has gone home to Tennessee to electioneer and vote. Before his departure, it is said that he issued an order that no leaves of absence should be approved in his bureau until his return, after the elec- tion is over. The effect of this order un- der the old system was to prevent any of cler! e from going home to en issued to the in 5. Lothrop « A. Bopp and F Averill and Juliet A. Luttrell of Culpeper y O.
