COLUMB!Ar4, BF-OOMSBURO. P m That Number Will be Required for the Next Census. DEPEW IN CHEROKEE STRIP Director Merrlam Unpeg to Organise nt Once fnr tliu Canaun, but No Appoint ments Will he Maile for Some Tlrae Knumrratlmi Dove Not . lUglo t Mill - June 1000. Washington, D. C, March 8. "No ap pointments In the census force will be made at present," said ex-Governor W. R. Merrlam, director of the census, yes terday. He Is going to Minnesota In a few duys to close up some matters of business, and when he returns the work of organizing the bnreau will be beKun. By that time It is expected that Fred- rick II. Wines of Illinois, the assist- , ant director, who Is to supervise the statistical work, the tabulation and de ductions therefrom, will be in Washing ton and aid his chief in arranging the preliminaries. Governor Merrlam says: "I hope to get the organization start ed by April 1. It will proceed slowly. The three hundred supervisors will not be appointed before December 1 next, but in the meantime I will bo selecting the various experts who will have the details In charge. I am not a statistic ian nor expert, but I hope to prove ca pable of giving the census a good or ganization, so that when the work of enumerating the population and collec ting the statlsttcsd begins we can go right ahead without losing any time. "The enumeration does not begin un til June 1, 1900. Under the law the cen sus Is to relate specifically to four items population, mortality statistics, the products of agriculture and those of mar rfacturlng and mechanical estab lish: tents. The reports covering these four branches must be completed In two years. Then we are authorized to take up special questions Including sta tistics relating, among other things, to insane, blind and deaf persons, crimi nal and reformatory institutions, public Indebtedness, electric telephone and telegraph business, transportation, and mines and mining. We have three years In which to publtbh this great mass of Information." "How many enumerators will be re quired?" "At least fifty thousand. We shall occupy this summer and next winter in plotting the United States into geo graphical divisions and sub-divisions, and assigning the supervisors and the enumerators to their respective dis tricts. This will be really the first work we shall do." The law directs that the census shall be taken In Alaska and Hawaii. -It will be a difficult task to operate In Alaska," said Governor Merrlam, on account of the great stretches of al most uninhabited territory there, but by putting some experienced and ca pable man in charge and leaving the management very largely In his hands I do not anticipate trouble. We shall nave to follow the same plan in Ha -wail, on account of the difficulty of communicating with these Islands. I do not know yet what Is to be done in regard to Porto ' Rico and the Philip pines, although both will undoubtedly be American territory In the fullest sense of the word in 1900, Oar Major Generals. Washington, D. C, March 8. An In terpretation of several provisions of the army reorganization act will be asked by the war department of the at tomey general. The law provides that ne major general may be appointed for every twelve thousand enlisted men and the war department and the presi dent are anxious to know whether this means that the twelve thousand men must be actually enlisted before the major general can be commissioned The provision for the appointment of brigadier generals specifically says that there shall be one brigadier general for very four thousand men "actually en listed," and the president and Secreta ry Alger have practically decided that this applies to the major generals. It was rn accordance with this construc tion that they selected only two in stead of five major generals at their conference Monday; but to settle the matter positively they will secure an pinion from the attorney general. Another point Involved is whether either Major General Otis or Major General Shaffer can be appointed to their present volunteer rank under the new law until sixty thousand men have keen unlisted. There are now forty thousand enlisted men in the army. If the attorney general decides that act sal enlistments are necessary to justi fy the appointment of additional ma lor generals, it will be necessary to re cruit eight thousand more troops be fore General Otis can secure his new commission, and twenty thousand mora before General Shatter can be appoln ted to the highest grade under the law. The three major generals of the reg lar army. Miles, Merrltt and Brooke are equivalent to 86,000 men. Thil leaves a surplus of four thousand mon now in service, to Which must be ad ded eight thousand to legalize the ap pointment of Otis, provided, of course, that the attorney general decides that twelve thousand men must be actual ly In service for every major general appointed. The provision of the law permitting the re-enlistment for six months of the volunteers In the Philippines Is con structed by the war department as ' authority to continue In service the general officers now in the archipel ago. To Inspect Canal Routes. Washington, D. C March 8. An in vitation has been extended, it la said, y the Nicaragua Maritime and Pana ma Canal Companies , Jointly to the members of the House committee en tivers and harbors to inspect their two routes across the Isthmus. Should the Invitation be accepted a steamship will bt chartered and the trip made within the next few weeks. In the meantime there to much specu lation as to what the president will do ander the provision of the river and arbor bill authorising him to make an Investigation of the several proposed routes for a oanal and report te ion- tae test meet available route for the purposes of the United States. This provision was Inserted In obedi ence to the universal demand that something should be done toward a re alization of the desire of the people for a canal. A commission of seven, members is provided for, but Inasmuch as the Wal ker commission has not yet completed Its work the president may continue It In existence, and add two members to make it comply with the new law as to numbers. If that be done, the commission will return to the Isthmus and examine the Panama route. As a result of Its Investigation o the Nicaragua lines, the Walker com mission has decided to recommend con struction along the Lull route, but had also prepared details for six others, so that full Information can be given Con gress respecting them all.

The temperature in this city will fall twelve or fourteen degrees to about six degrees above zero, and north of here the morcury will fall twenty to twenty-flve degrees. It will not be any colder In the South than It Is now, and Just at present it is warmer In New England than south of that section. Later In the day, however, a decided change is predicted throughout New England. The weather will be very se vere all along the New Jersey and New England coast. Throughout the West it Is now ex ceedingly cold, the temperature run ning a little below zero, but It will con tinue fair through the central portion of the country and will warm up a lit tle. In the Northwest the mercury Is , rising rapidly, and yesterday stood at I 38 above in Montana.

C, March 8. The fact, announced- In these dispatches, that the president had decided not to raise any volunteer or provisional reg iments authorized under the new army bill, Is being discussed by members of Congress, who are seeking appoint ments. Within twenty-four hours the presi dent has told callers there would be no army appointments, except the one hundred and one second lieutenants appointed from civil life, and the twen ty appointed at large by the president, making one hundred and twenty-one In all, as authorized by the bill. He pointed out that there Is not a staff oppolntment to be made, and that there are enough regular army officers to officer all the regiments. Work has been begun at the war de partment for mustering out volunteer regiments, and there Is no chance of reappointing volunteer officers In the regular army. A number of young men have come here with the hope of getting appoint ments In the army and many have been at the White House. The president advised them to return home, that there were no appoint' menu to be made. Oeu. Eugan Going to Hawaii. Washington, D. C, March 8.

Emperor William's message of sympathy to Mrs. Rudyard Kipling, occasioned by her husband s serious Illness, is commented upon by tho press here. The Vosslsche Zeitung says: "This new manifestation or tne em peror's and the recent ones by German ministers form a pleasant contrast to the erroneous statement that Germany Is about to declare a tariff war against the United States. The German nation, on the contrary, is strongly desirous of living In peace with America, and In economic peace as well, but hopes for full reciprocity, and that the legitimate Interests of Germany will be consider ed." la Favor of Voting-Machines. Buffalo, N. Y., March 8.
