THE PENSION OFFICE.

Vigorous Complaints Over the Methods Pur-
sued by Commissioner Black.
.pecial to the Indianapolis Journa'
WASHINGTON. July %. "A great deal of fault
is found by members of Congress who have busi
snessat the Pension Office at the methods which
preraii in that branch of the governmeut serv-
ice. In all sections of the country boards OF
pension examiners are appointed for the express
purpose of rating the disability of men who apply
for pensions Under Republican administration
the decisions of these pension boards were al
ways regarded in making up the final papers in
claims before the Office, as entitled to the great
est weight for it was looked upon as certain that
men who were right the field could Judge better
of mans disability than those who were located
from mile to thousand miles away. Under
Commissioner Black this practice has been re-
versed, and now little or no attention is paid to
the recommendation of examining surgeons at
the home district of the applicant. but the rate
is left entirely to the judgment of the examiners
employed in the department itself These men
seem to be anxious to curry favor with the Com
missioner (who, in spite of his reports, seems to
regard applicants for pensions as beggars for
bounty and in order to do this adopt the Hol-
man economical idea of cutting down appropra
tions to the lowest possible notch. Great injus-
tice is done by this means, and the complaints in
consequence are both righteous and vigorous.

A FORTUNATE RECOVERY.
How Diamond Merchant Got Back $4,000
Worth of Lost Jewels.

BOSTON, July 23.-Alfred A. Marcus, a dia-
mond merchant of this city, is very happy to-day,
having recovered Ave thousand dollars worth of
diamonds which he never hoped to see again.
On the evening of July 2. Mr. Marcus met at
the fremont House a representative of New
York diamond house, and gems valued at $50. 900
were handed over to the latter. A few days
later word was received from New York that
fourteen gems worth s., 900, part of the origi-
nal package, were missing. search through
the hotel availed nothing, and, after an inter-
change of considerable correspondence. Mr..
Marcus notified New York that he would stand
the loss A few days ago. the Rev. Francis
Williams, of New York. was visiting Mr.. Marcus
and was told of the loss. The clergyman remem-
bered that he had seen an advertisement in
Rhode Island newspaper concerning the finding
Of some diamonds. The advertisement was
hunted up and found to be signed "A. S. ia mie-
son, Greenwich, r. l."
Detectives were put to work and finally traced
the advertisement to the Rev. o. w. Scott, of
Greenwich. r. I. The clergyman admitted hav-
ing the gems, and said that on the night they
were lost he was stopping at the fremont
House and found them. He was so dunn
founded that instead of turning them over to
the clerk he retained them for three days. Then
he was impelled to hand them over to the proper
authorities but feared being charged with their
theft. In consequence feeling that something
must be DONE he inserted the advertisement but
used the name of his nephew. Jameson who did
not at the time reside in Greenwich simply to
avoid publicity and annoyance. Upon learning
of the proper ownership he made every effort to
offer speedy restitution, and TO that end accom-
panied by Judge Tillir ghast, of East Greenwich,
he visited this city and returned to Mr.. Marcus
his lost diamonds. Mr.. Marcus was 30 pleased
that he presented Mr.. Scott with two gold
watches
