Important Pension Decision.

Second Controller Maynard has render
ed the following important decision under
the add tional bounty act OF july 2S.
1866:
Every soldier who enlisted after April IA,
1851, for a period Of not less than two
years, and was honorably discharged after
serving two years, for the purpose OF en-
aiding him to accept Il commission, is en-
titled to the additional bounty OF $50 au-
thorized by the thirteenth section OF that
act, provided, he was not entitled to any
greater bounty than 500 under the laws
existing at the date of the passage OF the
act, and provided his claim was filed in
time.
The decision is not applicable to any
claims Tor such additional bounty which
was not filed until after July l, 1850, the
time for filing such claims having expired
by limitation on that day.

There are frequent sneers at the base
ball game, but it is evidently popular
with the people. At the opening this
season in New York, the Mail and Ex-
press says: 1.-THE most wonderful and
significant feature was the crowd that
viewed it. The grand stand and the
Tree seats were packed with people.
Hundreds sat on the fence. Thou
sands stood up all around the field.
Even the roof OF the grand stand was
occupied. There were more than 49,
600 persons in the enclosure. And
the crowd was not more remarkable
for it's size than for its critical knowl-
edge of the game. Every point, how
ever slight, was noted at once" It
would be difficult to attract 10000
people to any other kind OF amuse.
ment, even in New York.

The Head Anarchist Arrested.

John Most, the anarchist and ~agitator,
was arrested in New York at the house OF
Mrs. Fisher, No. 19S Allen street, by our
detectives and Inspector Byrnes. Mosten-
dcavored to elude the officers by crawling
under the bed OF one OF the female inmates
OF the house, and with whom he is said to
have been long intimate. The de-
%tectives seized the anarchist n few
hours after having located him, and
when the apostle of anarchy was
pulled by the heels from under
the bed he presented a sorry spectacle.
His head and face were covered with dust
and dirt, and his eyes were large with fear.
He recovered, however, sufficiently % wave
his arm aloft and shout a demand forlibcr-
ty Tor the people. He was handcufied and
taken to police quarters, where he was
locked up. Most, since he went in hiding,
has spent much OF his time in Newark, n.
j., and on the Jersey City hills. He was
found by tracking the man who sells him
white paper for his anarchist paper. In
the house where Most was arrested were
found a Winchester repeating rifle with
bayonet and books upon dynamite bombs
and kindred topics.

Levi D. Jarrard OF New Jersey, for
many years one OF the most powerful
political bosses in the state has just
died in prison. He worked up from
humble beginnings, made a great for.
tune, and got a great and corruptpow-
er in both political parties. His for
tune was swallowed by the cormo-
rants he had raised up, and at last he
stole money placed in his hands as
county treasurer, and went to prison,
where many OF his tools had gone be,
tore him.

The New York Sun isnot an alarm
:st. After recounting a series OF dis
orders, that paper says; "Yet we
shall live thro ugh it, and capitalists
and laborers and all the rest OF man
kind, will find that, after it is over,
their relations will be essentially the
same as they were. The Sun will
still be published daily; the winds
will blow, the rains of heaven will
tall, and the earth will yield herfruits;
and law, order, and liberty will be
ours afterwards rs they were before"

Military critics continue tocompare
the war equipments OF France and
Germany, thus keeping alive the now
well settled belief that these two ma

conflict. The latest report represents
Germany as ready to put in the field

The Presidents Veto Me,,aee.

Washington Special: The president
has sent messages to the house return
ing Il large number OF pension bills. 1t
created u decided sensation. TWAS known
that the president was giving these bills ex-
animation, with a view of a%scertaining
whether they were BASED upon evidence
sufficient to warrant the relief granted. 1t
was discovered h a good grounds were as
signed for the disapproval OF the two bills
vetoed, and that the lecture OF
the president upon the carelessncss ex-
hlbited by congress in passing upon
thls class OF bills was JUST
fled by the facts set forth. The message
was generally approved by the right-minded
men OF both sides OF the house, and cannot
iail to induce congress to be more careful
in the future. The two bills vetoed were
evidently selected to emphasize the presi-
dents objections to the manifest careless
ness exhibited by congress in dealing with
pension bills, and the objections in both
cases are such that upon reconside-
ration the house will be forced to
sustain the vetoes. The house did
not need this admonition from the
executive to become convinced that sufici.
ent care is not shown in passing upon pen
sion bills. Early in the present session Mr..
Springer introduced IA bill to pension a man
who was voted a pension at the last ses-
sion OF congress-, by the passage OF the iden-
teal bill presented by Mr.. Springer. Not
withstanding this fact, the pension COM
mittee actually reported the billfavorably,
thus showing that the committee had given
the case no examination whatever.

Virginia the white vote was about

not less than ninety per cent. OF the
negroes voted for license. The negro
farm laborers are not much given to

EXPIRING CONTRACTS.

Saturdays issue of 0 Luso Ha-
,oaiiano contains very important
article on the Forthcoming crisis in
the Portuguese colony, which must
call forth the attention of our econo-
mists. BY documents published by
the Luso. it is shown that all the
Portuguese people, arriving by the
ships Suffolk, Hankow, Bell-Rock
and Abergildie, terminate their con-
tracts from the present month up to
November next. So that in all,
over 1000 families will be thrown
out of employment. The L"S0
wisely advises its readers not to
wander about in search of uncertain
work, hut to try and stay on the
same plantations by which they are
now employed. However. it is
certain that many, who are disgusted
with plantation work, will not be
satisfied by anything but change,
and if they fail to find new occupa-
tion, or to find opportunities to
settle down for themselves, they
will either be thrown on public
charity or will leave these islands,
thus depriving us of very desirable
class of laborers. Something ought
therefore to be done to meet the
emergency by the Legislature in
the shape of land inducements for
settlement. But, in the meanwhile,
the Luso is doing good work by
giving them excellent advice.

REPORTS AND REPLIES.


Minister Gulick, from the Print
ing Committee, presented the house
with printed copies of certain acts.
Rep. Dole presented report of
the select committee on liquor law
bills, recommending that an amended
act submitted he substituted for the
act to amend chap. Al Of the laws Of
1882, and that the other acts re-
ferred to them, introduced by Mr..
Nahinu, be indefinitely postponed.
Adopted.
Minister Gibson presented a
printed reply to the resolution of the
hon. member for Lahaina, relating
to passports granted to Chinese.
Also, reply in writing to the
resolution of the hon. member for
Lihue asking for a statement of the
expenditures for the Kings Guards
and Military, and for Foreign Mis-
sions. He said he had no knowledge
of the vouchers or the nature of the
exl enditures, and therefore moved
that the statement be referred to
the Finance Committee.
Rep. Kalua moved the report be
printed.
Rep. Castle hoped the member
for Lahaina would withdraw his mo-
tion. The reply was merely state
ment of drafts. BY law each Minis
ter had charge of the disbursements
in his own department, but there
was a special law under which the
Minister of Foreign Affairs had
only nominal charge of the military
appropriations. He seconded the
Minister'S motion.
Rep. Dole said he was disap-
pointed in the Minister'S reply to
his resolution. He did not think
shelter should be taken under the
special law referred to. The Secretary
of the Foreign Office had given him
to understand that details could be
furnished. He moved the reply be
returned to the Minister of Foreign
| Affairs.
Minister Gibson begged to inform
