The President Succeeds In Stirring Up q
Large-Sized Hornets Nest.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 26-The President in
vetoing three or four private pension bills, an
that the pensions should be granted. has stirred
up hornets nest in Congress. There are sew
eral thousand such bills up for consideration be-
fore every Congress- Testimony Is taken by the
pension committees Of the House or Senate. and
reports made on each application. If there is
merit in the claim. there is little difficulty in
securing tie passage of the bill. The bill when
sent to the President, simply contains the name
of the individual and the amount to which he is
to be thereafter entitled. The President con-
suits the Commissioner of Pensions finds out
whether or not there ever was such soldier,
increase of pension is In the cases which the
President has just vetoed it is claimed that there
is no evidence before the Pension Office to show
that the claimants are entitled to pensions. The
pensions in this were passed upon by the
Senate COMMITTEES. who say that they have in
their possession abundant testimony to justify
the allowance of pension. They say, further
and their opinion is that of Representatives
and Senators generalv-that when a committee
of either house has taken the evidence in pen
sion case, and decided that the pension should be
allowed, that ought to be conclusive in the mat
ter The President. however, takes different
view of the matter, and will insist upon being
fully informed before he sanctions, by his sig
nature. the appropriation of one cent of money
for any claim that does not seem to him to be
thoroughly jusrifable

committee on the state of ORDER the most i'm.
portant of all. held its session in the parlor OF
the Weddell House. This committee consists OF
Messrs. Frank A. Foster, chairman, os Haver-
HILL Mass; James Cummings, of New York;
Henry Mentor, of New York; Robert Shilling, of
Milwaukee; George Mcneil, of Boston, and Mr..
Shaw, of Illinois. The afternoon WAS spent in a
general discussion of the matters that were to be
brought before the committee. Samuel Camp
ers, president of the State Workingmen's AS
sembly, OF New York; A. Strasser. president Of
the international Cigar-makers Union. and P. j.
Mcclure, secretary Of the Carpenters and Join
ers Union, held conference with the commit
tee, and related, in general way the grievances
that each expected to bring before the commit
tee. The cigar-makers spoke of the recent
trouble in Pittsburg, between the international
Union and the Knights of Labor.
The delegates to the General Assembly ex-
pressed themselves as highly pleased at the ac-
structing its delegates to the annual convention
to vote that the union 60 over to the Knights of
Labor in body. The convention will meet in
Pittsburg, June l, and it is confidently asserted
that it will adjourn as district assembly Of the
knights Of Labor. About g. 500 members will
be added to the Knights of Labor by this action,
and it is claimed that the compositors in small
towns where there are no unions will swell the
number to so, 900.
The General Assembly will reconvene at 8
o'clock tomorrow morning and during the re-
naming sessions the hours will be from to IL
o'clock in the morning, and from 2 to o'clock in
the afternoon, standard time. The General As
sembly cannot possibly adjourn before Saturday,
and the business may occupy the delegates at
tention during the first part of next week.
