THE WEEK IN WASHINGTON
jftlnor Matters of Interest in the Capital
City.
B0XDAY, Skpt. 3. Hepardlcss of tbe fact that
a report had pono abroad in the newspapers
of tho country that President Cleveland
Lad undergone an operation for tin, removal
of a ameer in his mouth, he, with "the first
lady in tho land," attended church at the
old stand to-day. He has grown stouter, hut
looks as though ho had enjoyed his fishing
at Buzzard's Bay. The cyclone which
struck this portion of the country last week
seems to have produced tho most perfect
weather, and to-day was one of the most
delightful in an experience of 25 years in
Washington.
Monday, Sept. 4. Minister Blount, who re
turned recently from the Hawaiian Islands,
called on Scctctary of State Gresham and had
n long talk on tho Hawaiian question to-day.
A time was fixed at this meeting for an inter
view with President Cleveland, at which the
whole subject will he discussed, and the
policy of this Government toward the islands
settled. The Commander of tho Spanish
Caravels, Capt. Victor Ha Coucas y. Palau.
called upon Secretary of the Navj Herbert at
the Department to-day. and transferred the
caravels, now at the World's Fair at Chicago,
to tho United States. Tho Spanish sailors
who havo been manning the caravels will
go back to their 'native laud on ono of the
ocean grayhpunds immediately.
Tuesday, Srcrr. 5. Congressman W. C. P.
Breckinridge, of Kentucky, filed his reply
to-day to tho declaration of Miss Pollard,
who is suing him for breach of promise to
marry. The demurrer of the Congressman
is very short, does not dony Miss Pollard's
charges, but attacks the bill from a law
standpoint; Col. Breckinridge claiming that
the declaration is bad, in that it claims threo
separate contracts of marriage, when only
ono contract can be entered into between
two persons. As the House was not in
session to-day, and President Clovelaud had
returned from his Summer outing, the halls
of the White Houso were filled with Repre
sentatives of tho various States in accord
with the Administration, all anxious to for
ward the claims of their constituents to tho
various offices in the gift of tho President.
Wednksday, Skit. G. Senator Yoorhoes
to-day introduced a bill in the Senate for
the relief of Capt. John D. Dowd, an
Indiana veteran who was injured in tho
Ford's Theater disaster, was pinned under
tons of debris for several hours, and was the
last person taken ont alivo from tho ill-fated
buildiug. The bill appropriates $10,000 for
tho benefit of Gtpt. Dowd. Tho Commis
sioner of Patents to-day refused to review
his decision declining to register tho word
"Palmetto" ou the trade-mark in connection
with tho salo of whisky in South Carolina.
Because of this decision tho Palmetto Stato
will disburse tbe corn-juice without sanction
of United States law.
Thdesday, Sept. 7. Hon. Josiah Quincy, of
3Iassachusetts, First Assistant Secretary of
State, called at tho White House to-day and
tendered to the President his resignation.
Tiiis action has been expected for several
weeks. Mr. Quincy informed the President
that the move was made at the solicitation of
tho Massachusetts Democracy, and that he
would immediately return home and person
ally conduct the campaign of his party this
Fall. Senator Walthall, of Mississippi,
rather astonished his colleagues of the Sen
ate by making a silver spoeclrto-day, as it was
generally understood that he was in accord
with the Administration on the .financial
question. He stated that he adhered to the
plat'orra of the Democratic party as an
nounced by tho Chicago Convention, and be
lieved in tho free coinage of silver. Tho
Secretary of War to-day ordered 300 hospital
tents sent from the Quartermaster's Depart
ment at St. Louis to tho peoplo left homeless
through the ravages of tho great hurricane on
tho South Carolina coast last week.
Feiday, Skpt. S. There was a small-sized riot
at Eckington, a Washington suburb, to-day,
caused by a strike of colored men working
upon a sewer excavation. The men dc
mnuded wore money from tho contractor,
which was refused, and they stopped work.
Some Italians who were on the same work re
fused to quit. The negroes attacked tho work
ing Italians, and tho entire reserve of police
of Washington was necessary to quell the riot.
Nobody was seriously injured, but there was
a number of black eyes and bloody heads
when tho fightingstoppod. Tho President
sent in a number of important nominations
to-day. Among them wcro the names of
Theodore Eunyon, of New Jereey, to be Em
bassador to Germany; Albert S. Willis, of
Kentucky, to bo Minister to tho Ilawaiiau
Islands; Henry M. Sraytho, of Virginia, to
bo Minister to Hay ti; Ellis Mills, of Virginia,
to be Consul-General at Honolulu, and AL S.
Carroll, of Maryland, to be Consul-General to
Dresden, Germany.
Saturday, Skpt. 9. For tho first time in tho
history of the historic Executive Mansion, a
child was to-day born to a President of the
United States. The interesting event hap
pened about noon, and another daughter has
been added to tho Cleveland household. Tho
day before Mrs. Cleveland took a long drive
witli her husband, and was in the best of
health and spirits. Several others have first
seen the light of day at the White House, but
no other President has ever had a child born
in the Mansion. President Tyler had a
grandson and granddaughter born in tho
White House, as did Gen. Grant a grandson.
The latter wa3 tho first child of Col. Fred
Grant, who was living with his wife iu tho
Mansion at tho time. Mrs. Cleveland and
tho baby arc reported as doing well.
CHAT OF THE CORRIDORS.
Tho War Department announces that the
itir created recently over tho exhibition of a
Tccruiting placard of the United States Army
in an Ottawa (Canada) store window, which
called for able-bodied men to join tho United
States A rmy, was simply "a tempest in a teapot."
The display of tho placard was unauthorized
by the War Department, and it is said that
tho poster was obtained without authority by
unknown parties.
Herman Perls, a veteran of tho late war, ono
of tho owners and publishers of the Deutsche
Prase, tho leading German newspaper at tho
Capital, fell and broko his leg, on Wednesday,
Sept. 6. What makes this accident especially
Bevero to Comrade Perls is the fact that when
a soldier in a Now York regiment ho was
wounded so severely in his other leg at An
tictam that ho could hardly navigate. This
accident, therefore, is especially unfortunate,
becauso tho good leg is tho ono that was hurt
'his time.
Comrade William D. Mack, who was unfor
tunate enough to lose both feet in returning
from tho battlefield of Gettysburg on tho
4th of July last, was out driving last week, and
appeared in excellent health. Otio foot has
been amputated above tho ankle, aud the other
cut clean away, leaving nothing but tho heel.
In a very short tinio Cornrado Mack will be
around with artificial limbs, and tho Surgeons
predict that he will bo able to got about with
out tho least difliculty. It it almost a miracle
for a man of Comrade Mack's ago to havo re
covered from such a shock.
Mr. Ellis Mills, wno was lor somo time edi
torially connected with Thk National Trib
une, was nominated by tho President last week
to bo Consnl-General of the United States to
tho Hawaiian Islands, stationed at Honolulu.
After leaving The Tiubunk .Mr. Mills becamo
Privato Secretary to Secretary of Stato Bayard,
filliug that position during tho first Cleveland
Administration. When Secretary Blaine suc
ceeded Mr. Bayard. Mills was made a clerk in
the State Department. Ho was detailed to
accompany Mr,. Blount when tho latter was
sent to the Hawaiian Islands as Commissioner
from this country to settlo a flairs in thoso
Islands. It was reported shortly after Mills's
arrival that he, like nn oiiicer of tho U. S.
Navy, was engaged to bo married to the daugh
ter of a millionaire Chinaman of Honolulu.
Mr. Mills hails from Virginia, and is ono of
the best stor3'-tollers that noted Stato ever
produced. Without question he will edify tho
inhabitants of tho Islands with somo of his
best efforts in this direction, and will soon
become a favorite with tho natives.
S C
A case of extremo hardship, under tho re
cent rulings of tho Interior Department, camo
under tho personal notice of tho writor last
pension day. A veteran from Baltimore, who
camo over to Washington for his pension
money, seeing that I wore the G.A.R. button,
stopped aud asked for information. Ho told
me that after having spent over an hour iu the
line at the Pension Agency, ho was told by the
employes there that notice had como tho day
before that his pension had been suspended.
Tho comrade, whoso name is forgotten, pro
duced his pension certificate, which was num
bered in tho 10.000, showing clearly that ho had
been on tho roll over 30 years. His skull had
been fractured by a minie-ball ; he was dis
abled by another wound in the right elbow,
and had received a bad wound in tho right
groin iu the coven days' battles before Rich
mond in 3SC2. All theso wounds were men
tioned in his pension certificate, and tho writer
felt his head and could trace tho silver plato
which covered the brain where tho natnral
covering had been shot away, and could dis
tinctly see that the right arm was helpless. It
was a very pitiable caso, aud will without doubt
be remedied.
The resolution introduced in tho Senate on
Thursday, Sept. 7, by Senator Wolcotfc, of Colo
rado, calling for information as to tho bounty
on maple sugar, and to which Senator Gallin
ger, of New Hampshire, objected, having come
up on Friday, Senator Wolcott expressed regret
at the bru;quenes3 of his response to tho New
Hampshire Senator, aud said that ho wished
now to modify his resolution in accordance
with Mr. Gallinger's suggestion to cover all
kinds of sugar. This was agreed to, but not
before Senator Proctor, of Vermont, had dis
charged some shafts of ridicule at the junior
Senator from Colorado. Maple sugar, ho said,
added a peculiarly tempting flavor to certain
mixed commodities, which made them very
tempting to the wayward appetite. Laughter.
The Senator from Colorado would pro'nably ask
that tho Government should take tho whole
product, have it coined into suitable cakes and
put up in other proper subsidiary packages, to
be given to Senators and Eeprescntatives for
distribution among their constituents. It
would not require to have stamped upon it
"In God we trust," nor would it need to he
mado legal tender by law. Ho would guaran
tee that it would pass current on its intrinsic
value.
ANOTHER GREAT MAN GONE.
IlamiUou Tish, Grant's Secretary of State,
Passes Away.
Flags flying at half-mast on the Department
of State ou Friday, Sept. 8, caused inquiry to
be mado as to what Statesman was dead. It
was soon learned that Hon. Hamilton Fish,
Secretary of State during Gen. Grant's Ad
ministration, had died at Garrison, N. V.
Ex-Secretary Fish was one of the beat-known
figures on the streets of Washington during'
the two terras of Gen. Grant in tho White
House. Ho was appointed Secretary of Stato
March 11, I860, succeeding Hon. E. B. Wash
borne, of Illinois, who held tho position but
six days.
When Gen. Grant was re-elected and took his
seat, March A. 1673, Mr. Fish was reappointed
Secretary of State, and served through the
entire term of that Administration, turning
over the office to Hon. William M. Evarls, who
became Secretary of Stato under President
Hayes.
Tho funeral took place on Monday, Sopt. 11,
the services being held iu tho historic St.
Philip's Church of tho Highlands, at Garrison.
The paul-bearcrs were John King, John Schuy
ler. Aleck Clinton. Seth Low, Col. Thomas B.
Ardon, and Samuel Sloan, all intimate personal
friends of the dead ex-Secrolary.
While living in Washington, boing a rich
man, the ontc-rtninnieuts given by Secretary
Fish to tho Diplomatic Corps were the most
lavish of anythiug ever before seen at the
Capital, and wcro only equaled by those given
by Secretary Whitney, of the Navy Depart
ment, during Mr. Cleveland's first Administra
tion. TIRED OF LIFE.
Ex-Cliicf Clerk Crohby Attempt to Drown
Himself.
Henry T. Crosby, who served as Chief Clork
of the -War Department while Gen. W. W.
Belknap was Secretary of War. and until Hon.
Kobert T. Lincoln had administered tho War
portfolio for a year, when ho was discharged,
attempted to drown himsolf by jumping from
tho Aqueduct Brtdgo in Georgetown on tho
night of Sept. 4.
Col. Crosby has been "playing iu hard luck "
since ho left the War Department. During
the war he served as a private in the 40th Pa.
Inf., and was for a time stationed as a guard
on the Seventeenth-street eutrauco of the old
War Department buihliritr.
He became a "Gencnil-Scrvico" clork in tho
War Department at tho close of the war, and
rapidly advanced through tho various grades
until he became Chief Clerk of the Department.
Col. Crosby is ono of the best-hearted com
rades iu the Dopartmoutof tho Potomac Ho
is a good lawyer aud one of tho best-informed
men as to claims against tho Government in
Washington. His rash act va3 caused by
financial troubles. Ho will recover, and it is
probable that tho notico given the public by
his attempt at suicide will result in his many
friends proffering a helping hand, which will
tend to make his last days his best days.
TO RESTORE THE OLD RULING.
Representative Meiklijohn, of the Third Dis
trict of Nebraska, has introduced a hill in tho
House regarding tho dependent pension law.
His bill says that, "Prodded, That if the dis
ability or disabilities rendering tho claimant
unable to earn a support are of such a degree
as would bo rated at or abovo $G and less than
$12 under existing laws, they shall, nndor this
act, berated the same as like pensionable dis
abilities of service origin, nnd all claimants with
a pensionable disability or disabilities which
are of service origin would be rated at or abovo
12 per month shall be rated at $12 per month."
GIVEN A SHARP REBUKE.
Secretary Herbert Scores Several Nnval OHl
cers in General Orders.
A fire aboard tho U. S. S. Atlnnta, lying at
Norfolk last month, brought to tho attention
of the Navy Dopartmout through n Board of
Inquiry appointed to find out who was re
sponsible, culminated in tho issuance of an
order by Socrotary Herbort last wcok, which
gives a sharp robuko to tho Naval officers
aboard the Atlanta.
Mr. Horbort intended to order a court-martial
for tho trial of the officers involved, but
owing to tho fact that certain othor officers
previously attached to the Atlanta, who arc bo
lieved to be equally responsible with tho oflicors
named iu tho report submitted to the Court of
Inquiry, but who could not be reached legally,
it was decided by tho Secretary of tha Navy
to givo a General Order showing that the offi
cers of tho Navy generally appear to bo dovot
ing too much time to other matters than thoir
duties. Secretary Horbort says:
The neglect which resulted in tho flro appears to
linvo been duo chielly. if not wholly, to a desiro on
the part of those in authority on board (bo Atlnnta
to get rid of the vessel as soon as possible by turn
ing her over to the navy-yard authorities. Tho
court properly fixe tho responsibility for the flro
upon the officer hereinboro niiuicd, but it appears
to tho Department, if tho evidence is to bo relied
on, tlint olhora not named in tho report of the
court are indirectly responsible therefor, through
Ciireleisiie.9 in nut making a proper inspection of
the ship before anil nftcr she win placed out of
communion. Tiio Department refrains from natn
inir such persons in this General Ordoronly in con
sideration of the faet that the court failed to fix the
incnsiiroof their responsibility for the nclion.
After mentioning Capt. Bartlett and Chiof
Engineor Inch by name, Mr. Herbert concludes
with tho following, which will give tho Navy a
general fthakiug up, and has issued nn order
amending tho Naval ltegulations-so as to pro
vide for moro rigid inspection aud reliable re
ports :
Under all the circumstances above stated thoofll
ccm named in the report are responsible for tho lire
nnd for the condition in which the .hip was found,
and are liciily deserving- of a court-martial. It is
only bfcnu.-iu of the fuel that it would be difficult,
if not iinpractic.ihle, to bring- to trial all of the
parties whom the Department deems responsible,
and in soma tnenbure because of the opinion ex
pressed by the Court of Inquiry that no further
proceeding) are necrssnry, that furthor judicial
ptocecdings are not instituted.
The foregoing Goneral Order is published to the
service and will be read to the officer and crew of
every vcmsel of the Navy in commission, as re
quired by Article 3t5 of the United Stales Naval
Regulations. In giving this widespread circulation,
the Department hopes that such a condition of
afliiira as has been discovered on board the United
States steamer Atlanta will never again exist on
board a vessel in the American Navy.

CONGRESS,
Abstract of tho;T More Important
Proceedings of Both Houses.
Tuksday, Sept. 5.
In tho Senate, Mr. Stewart (Nov., Ti.) occu
pied throe hours aud a half in a speech against
repeal. The gist of his remarks was to tho
effect that there was an, honest remedy and
there was a dishonest remedy. Tho honest
remedy was to rostoro stiver, or, if that could
not bo done, to utilize th6 silver in tho Treas
ury by issuing silver certificates on it, and by
issuing enough greenbacks to reliovo tho dis
tress. Tho dishonest remedy was to pas3 tho
repoal bill, to sanctify tho infamous act of 1S73,
and to fasten a perpetual gold standard upon
tho country.
During his speech tho Sonator was once in
terrupted by Mr. Hoar, by a simplo inquiry
concerning his own record in the Sonato on the
pending question. Sonator Stewart waved his
hand at the man from Massachusetts in adopro
cating manner, nnd then,-clenching his fist, he
shook it toward tho Massachusetts Sonator.
" I decline to be intorruptod and interpolate a
lot of trash in my speech," ho cried. "Tho
Sonator is trying to break up tho continuity in
my speech. If ho will wait until I got through
he can talk as long as ho wants to."
At one point Mr. Stowart paused, having
noticed that few Senators wero in the Chamber
or listening to him, and declared that ho could
not go on with his speech unless a quorum
wore present.
A call of tho Senate was made, 56 Senators
responded, and then tho Nevada Sonator re
sumed his remarks. Iu two minutes there wore
fewer Senators present than bofore.
At 3:15, the Senator having disposed of his
type-written manuscript, mndo another pause.
He said that ho had much moro to say, but was
not suro that ho could got through to-night.
No one offorcd to reliovo him by moving that
the Senate go into Exccutivo session or adjourn,
aud so tho Senator continued.
After ho had continued in this stylo for over
a quarter of an hour he opened his desk, took
out of it a bttndlo of papers, and proceeded to
read extracts from a Now York paper of Janu
ary, 1891, in condemnation of the Federal
olectious bill and of tho closure rulo then pro
posed. Mr. Morgan (Ala., D.), realizing that Mr.
Stowart was doing this merely to sparo himself,
moved to go into Executive session, and a vote
resulted yeas 35, aays 23. So tho Seuato pro
ceeded to Executive business, and at 4:40 ad
journed till to-morrow at fcocc
Wkdnksday, Sept. 0.
In tho Scnato another day was spent in
speech making.
Affor somo routino business Mr. Voorhces
called up his resolution providing for the meet
ings of tho Senate hereafter at 11 o'clock. It
was apparent that tho Senator from Indiana
was much annoyed when ho rose, and every
body was surprised whon he announced that
after " full and caroful consultation with friends
of the repeal bill ou this side of the Chamber,
in whoso judgment I havo been accustomed to
confide, and whose wishes I cannot disregard, I
will ask that this resolution go ovor for tho
present, believing that if wo oceupy the time of
tho Scnato carefully wo will mako as much
speed, perhaps, as by its adoption, until at least
a later Jay."
The silver Senators made an aggrcssivo move
ment through Senator Morgan calling up his
resolution providing for the creatiou of a joint
com mil fee of both Houses to consider the
financial situations Jlo-mado a long speech as
to the need of some broad and comprehensive
survey of the financial situation.
Senator Voorhces' then'moved that tho Sen
ate proceed to thocunsideralion of tho Wilson
hill. After opposition on tho part of the silver
Senators, and a calling of tho roll, which took
until 2 o'clock, when thd bill became the order
anyway. Senator StewarC resumed his speech.
At 5 p. m. Mr. Yoorhoes asked the Nevada
Senator if ho wished to continue his speech
that evening, and upon replying in tho nega
tive, moved for an Executive session.
-. -After the doors were opened tho Senate, at
5:15, adjourned.
In tho House tho scene was flat and stale. A
wrangle over the rules occupied most of tho
time.
The Kyle amendment striking from tho rules
tho clause making 100 members a quorum in
Committee of the Whole was agreed to.
Several amendments wore considered and
lost, and the consideration of the codo having
been completed, tho rules wero adopted with
out a division.
Tho House, at 3:50, adjourned until Satur
day. TnuitsDAY, Sept. 7.
fei tho Senate, Mr. White (Cal., D.) offered a
resolution calling on tho Secretary of tho Treas
ury to furnish information as to the expendi
tures made under tho appropriation for the
enforcement of the Chinese exclusion act and
what portion of the fund is now available, aud
whether any and What additional appropriation
is necessary in order to carry out tho provisions
of tho act.
The resolution was agreed to.
At 12:35 31 r. Yoorhoes moved to proceed
with the consideration of tho Houso bill to re
peal the purchasing clause of tho Sherman act.
The motion was agreed to without division.
Mr. Stowart expressed his willingness to dis
continue his speech for tho present in favor of
Mr. Walthall (Miss., D.).
Mr. Walthall then addressed tho Senate in
favor of bimetallism.
Mr. Stewart then proceeded to score Mr.
Voorliees for what he was pleased to consider
his desertion from tho side of free coinage of
silver. Oncoho paused and called for a quorum,
with tho usual rosult.
He was still talking at 4:15, when Mr. Daniel
went ovor and whispered a word in his ear,
when, to tho astonishment of all, ho announced
Stewart touts ron a Quorum.
that ho would now close his speech. "There
aro several branches of tho subject which I
have not yet touched, and which I wish to
speak upon, but I will close this speech here."
"Does tho Senator conclude?" Mr. Yoorhees
asked, with an incredulous manner.
"Yes," was tho reply..
"There is," said Mr. Voorhoos, "a largo
amount of Executive buvsinc;s to bo transacted.
I move that the Senate proceed to that busi
ness." .j t
Tho Seuato then proceeded to Exccutivo busi
ness, and at 5 p. m4 adjourned until to-morrow.
Friday; Sept. 8.
In tho Sennte the policy of tho silver mon is
ono of delay. Senator Faulkner eloquently
delivered a speech, that was but a pare of tho
plan of tho silver men to kill time, although
the Senator declared himself in favorof ropeal,
in tho oveut that a vote can be reached. His
proposed amendment indicates a disposition to
delay final action. Every proposed amend
ment is an excuse for furthor debate and time
killing roll-calls. It would seem that the Sonate
must adopt a closuro rule boforo unconditional
repeal can bo accomplished.
After Mr. Faulkner closed his speech tho
floor was taken by Mr. Turpio (Ind., D.), who
addressed tho Seuato in favor of the principle
of bimetallism.
Mr. Jones (Ark., D.) was f tho next speaker.
Ho would vote against the' pending bill and
would resist its enactment into law as long as
possiblo unloss if was coupled with somo moos-
W.'ll r'
uro recognizing silver and providing for an ex
pansion of tho volume of tho country's money.
Then, ns a suggestion was made to proceed
to Exccutivo business, Mr. Halo (Me., E.)
mado a short speech, in which ho suggested
that Mr. Yoorhees should not consent to so
early nn adjournment .i t was then 3:40), but
should require Sonators to go on with tho dis
cussion until a rcasonablo hoar of adjourn
ment, and a few moro suggestions in the samo
vein. Mr. Voorhces took oflonso at tho re
marks, aud scored tho Sonator from Maine.
Tho closing incident of the day's session was
rounded off by a little passago between Mr. Al

mado. On the whole, howover, much attontion
was given to Mr. Toller's speech, the main
1 point of his argument boing an attempt to
' provo that the financial troubles were not duo
to tho Sherman law.
At 3:50 Mr. Toller was still spoaking. Mr.
Voorheos interrupted him to move an Exccu
tivo session, and tho silver Sonator gladly
yielded.
In tho House, the attendance was small and
the interest weak. Several unimportant reso
lutions wero offered and referred.
Mr. Meiklcjohn (Neb.. 11.) asked consent for
tho immediato consideration of n resolution
calling on tho Secretary of the Interior for in

16 Republicans when tho proceedings opened.
Mr. Dolph presented a remonstrance against
tho execution of tho Chinese exclusion act
from tho Oregon Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, and ho said that this peti
tion illustrated what ho had said the other
day, that much of the criticism of tho Geary
act came from persons entirely unfamiliar
with it; in this caso Ire pointed out wherein
the Conference was mistaken ns to tho require
ments of the law.
Referring to the bill recently introduced in
tho Houso to extend tho requirements for one
year, Mr. Dolph declared that he would have no
objection to that extension if tho Chinese- Six
Companies would advise tho Chinese to regis
ter. Mr. Pugh addressed the House in opposition
to tho bill before the Senate. At the end he
hinted at filibustering as a means to enable
tho opponents of repeal to "stand upon their
convictions."
Mr. Toller then finished his speech of tho
day before.
The Senate, at 5:05, after a short Executive

Mr. Kilgoro objected, and tho resolution was

SUFFERED FOB COUNTRY,
Hut Is Unfortunate Enough to jLIvo In
Another Tand.
Editor National Tribune: I see in a
recent issue that there is danger of the pen
sions of Union veterans who are living; out
side of the United States being cut off, for
reason of their place of residence. As I am
one of these comrades, I would like to cite
my own experience as a protest against such
an outrage.
When the war broke out I wa3 the only son
of a widowed mother with one daughter 15
years old, and no home, no property, and not
a dollar.
We resided nbont two miles southeast of
Leroy, N. Y., aud the 105th N. Y. was then
being recruited at Leroy. This was in the
Winter of 18G1, and several business men of
tho town asked me why I did not enlist. I
said I could not leave my invalid mother;
but they told mo if I enlisted I would get
100 bounty, and the County Commis
sioners (one was named Robinson) would
look after my mother aud see that sho did
not want for the necessaries of life, and if I
got killed she would get a pension sufficient
to keep her from want.
So, ou Feb. 1, 1SG2, at Leroy, N. Y., at
the age of 17 years aud eight months, 1 en
listed in Co. D, 105th N. Y. From that day
to this my mother has been an invalid, with-
lout one cent of assistance from the Town,
County, State, or Government.
The rest of my history goes with the regi
ment to Hatcher's liun, Va., where, at about
4 p. m., in a charge near a small stream and
cabin, defending the colors of the 91th N. Y.,
I was shot down, the ball going in at the
top of my right pocket and coming out and
grsiziug the backbone, aud breaking off the
tvt6 lowest short rib.s, making a wound that,
with the best of care, was a running sore for
two years, and which kept me in the hospital
until after the war was all over aud my
regiment had gone home.
Aud after I was discharged, and still on
crutches, I applied for that promised pen
sion, and was granted the magnificent sum
of $2 per mouth, that myself and invalid
mother, who gave her all to her most gener
ous country, might roll in peace and plenty
the rest of our dear lives.
About 18S0 1 was advised by the Examin
ing Surgeon to apply for increase of pen
sion, Baying I was fully entitled to $8 per
month. I went before a Board of Examin
ers at Oil City, Pa., and as I could then walk
without crutches, they agreed that I was
entitled to more than when I could not
walk, so I got a magnificent rise of 2 more.
I enlisted uuder false pretenses made to
me, and misrepresentations and promises
which wero never fulfilled. After 1 got iu I
could not get out. Lator I was persuaded
tojgo to Australia, through misrepresenta
tions and promises which were never ful
filled, through no fault of mine, and after
I got there I could not get back again.
I am an American citizen, registered on
the American Consul's book, and claim pro
tection from that officer under his flag.
Now, why should I lose my pension, which
barely keeps my poor mother in medicine,
and who has had to have medical aid for
over 30 years? Aud why, in the name of
God and humanity, cannot I have my check
signed over to go direct from the Pension
Office to my mother, instead of coming
23,000 miles, round trip, and taking five
mouths before she gets it ? E. S. HEATH,
Leaauecoorie, Victoria, Australia.

PERSONAL.
A relic of tho war was found recontly by Mr.
Qeorjro W. Worley on bfs farm, southwest of
Marietta, near Cheatham Hill. Gft., where tboro
was a terrific battle fought. It is a bright silver
stnr, ns large an a silver dollar. The following
Inscription in plain letters is on it: "Benjamin
Dsy, Co. C, 131th Reg't. N. Y. V." In tbe center,
encircling Co. O, is a crescent. The star nnd n
cntchpin, showing that it was worn on tho lapol of
tho coat or vest. Mr. Worley discovered it while
plowing-. It is not in tho least corroded end wears
n bright polish. If Comcndo Day or any of his
bcira would like to communicAlo with Mr. Worley,
a latter nddrcssed care of tho Marietta Journal will
roach him.
Gen. Howard seems to be as ready for nn emer
gency in time of penco as bo was in time of war.
In one day atn Reunion of old soldiers in Cnldwell,
O., hold very recently, he delivered threo stirring:
speeches, and at midnight on tho samo dnto ho
started on his return journey to New York City.
The home of the late " Mother Lee," near Phila
delphia, was rich in testimonials of the regard nnd
nflection In which she was held by thousands of
brave soldiers. A letter written D7 Dr. Vnnder
kicft, of the hospital service, after the battle of An
liotnm.says: "Mrs. Leo's untiring efforts In behalf
of our pntriot soldiers have won the love nnd
esteem of all to whom she has administered."
Chaplain Slonn, In n letter from Antictnm. wrote:
"None of the newspaper notices tell half the story
of her good works. Many that suffered hero will
lonjj remember her kindness. She labored harder
and did moro to allovlnte tho pnina and sufferings
of tho wounded nt Antictnm than any three
others." A testimonial sisrned by tho wounded In
Ward B, Sixth Division of the General Hospital at
Gettysburg, enlis her another mother to them nil,
and asks the blessings of Heaven upon her head.
Gov. "William "McKinley, jr.. of Ohio, has decided
to drop tho "jr." from his name at the end of his
present term of ofllce. He would have done so im
mediately nfter the death of his fnlher, who had
borne tho same nnme, but it was held by some that
ns ho was elected ns "William McKinley. jr.,"
somo complications might follow a ohnnge of his
signature. His nnme will be printed William Mc
Kinley on the ballots this Fall.
Capt. Jesse McNeill, who commanded the Con
federate detachment which captured Gens. Crook
nnd Kelley in Cumberland. Md., during tho late
wur, has still in bis possession the sword taken
from Gen. Crook. It id bis intention to present the
sword to Gen. Crook's widow.
As a worker Gen. Lew Wallace Is painstaking In
the extreme, with the patience which a gifted
Frenchman has called n synonym for genius. The
amount of tireless research nnd careful investiga
tion which wont into "Bon Hur" can, perhaps,
only bo fully appreciated by the author himself.
It was n gracious rewnrd of his toil whon he found
that scholars and travelers willingly testified to
tho nceurncy of his descriptions of Eastern life nnd
surroundings. This is the moro remarkable ns the
author did not cross tho ocean nnd visit the locali
ties until nfeer tbe completion of his greatest work.
We may consider it the greatest, because it is most
probable that ilia fame will rot upon the "Tale of
the Christ," of which 500.0CO copies have been sold
in the United Stntcs alone. It has had Urge sales
in other inugUHges, but from thee there is neither
report nor profit to the author. At that time wa
had no Internationa copyright law. One has now
been passed, and the new book, "Tho Prince of
India," will be amply protected.
Tho Secretary of Wnr has just issued to Capt.
Lee Nutting, Into of the 61st N.Y., the Congres
sional medal of honor for distinguished services
in the fight at Todd's Taveru, on May 8, 1304. Tills
affair was named by the regiment the "cracker
box fight," because crncker-i were being distributed
to the men when tho engagement began. Capt.
Nutting led ft charge of ins company upon the
enemy, in which he was siiot through the lungs
nod went down. It lias alwnys been considered
Hint Capt. Nutting displnyed uncommon ability
nnd bravery on tiiis occasion, nnd hia comrades of
the Cist aro glad of the recognition ho has had nt
this Into day.
