ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
The President Hard at Work.
WASHINGTON, June 25.-Yesterdsy was
probably the busiest day the President has
had since his Inauguration. He devoted
it almost entirely to the consideration OF
Pension codes. During the day he acted
ON lis private pension bills, after giving
each case q thorough personal exsmina-
ton. Thirty bills were vetoed, and 81
| approved. He also approved the bill re-
imbursing Edwin Stevens, United States
Consul at Ming Poo, China, for extraor-
binary expenses incurred during the
| Franco-Chinese war. The bill for the re-
| lief Of Richard T. Wintersmith, late door
| keeper of the House, was allowed to be-
| come Q law without the Presidents sigma
| ture. The President wrote his veto mes
| sages himself without the assistance by q
| dictator or otherwise. They make about
| so pages of closely written foolscap. In
| deed, 1t is stated that the President has
| personally written every message that hes
issued from the White House during his
administration.

Getting Down to Business.
WASHINGTON, June 25.-In the caucus
tonight the attendance was large, nearly
all of the Democratic representatives in
the city being present, and the proceedings
we're harmonious throughout. Contrary
to common expectation, nothing was said
directly about the tariff on the pension
tax proposition. The state OF business in
the House was discussed, and Speaker Car
Isle. by request, ran over the calendar,
calling attention TO the almost inextricable
confusion of special orders on every sub.
iect of general importance. After hearing
the statement the caucus decided to select
a committee of three bers, which
should be charged with the duty OF select
ing and pushing TO q point of action such
OF the measures as ii should deem proper
to attempt to pass, and Messrs. Carlisle,
| Morrison and Randall were named. The
statement Of the caucus seemed TO be In
favor OF passing appropriation bills and
bills declaring q forfeiture Of land grants,
and then adjourning.
