Herr Most Sentenced to Prison.

Her Most was brought to court in New
York handcuffed to O. thief. His associates,
Schenck and BraunschNeig, were with him.
The court room was crowded. It was said
that Most is greatly annoyed at the spread
OF the statement that he was in the pay Of
the German government, and his presence
in this country was for the purpose OF de-
stroying the labor movement. After ar
guments by counsel and the charge by the
recorder the jury retired, and after
seventy minutes returned with verdict OF
guilty for all three of the prisoners, but
recommending Schenck to the mercy of the
court. They were at once conducted to
the prison van in waiting close by. A big
crowd was awaiting. As Most was enter
ing the van a man threw out to him q long
round parcel, but was hustled away. He
ran around the van and again attempted
to get the parcel to Most. He was this
time most effectually repulsed. A motion
for q new trial will be heard shortly. The
maximum penalty is one year.

under the socialist law, forbidding the

The Prssidsnt vstoss lIors Private Pom
sis y !. Biils.
The president has vetoed four private
pension bills granting pensions to Dudley
B. Branch, Louis Melchsr, Edward Ayers
and James G. Chandler. The president
gives his reasons at length in respect to
each case. In the case Of Branch he says:
am convinced that the rejection Of
this claim by the pension bureau was
correct, and think it, acti0n should
not DO reversed. In the commit
tees report the statement is found that
the beneficiary named in the bill was in
two different hospitals during 1868, and
yet it is not claimed that the history OF
his hospital treatment furnishes any proof
OF the injury upon which his claim is now
based. #s-
The president withholds his approval in
4elcher's case upon the ground that he
finds nothing in his examination of the
facts connected with it which i'm
peaches the value OF tho surgeons
certificate upon which the ad-
verse action OF the pension bureau was pred
icated. In vetoing tho Ayers bill the pres
ident says:
1t appears that the claimant, served in
his regiment two years and nearly eight
months after the alleged injury until he
was mustered out. 1t is represented to mo
by report from the pension bureau, that
after his alleged wound and in May or
June, 1868, the claimant deserted and in
July OF that year was arrested in Indiana
and returned to duty without trial.
If this report is correct, the party
now seeking pension at tho
ability incurred in the service seems to
have been capable OF considerable physical
aYeFfinn ,Hfu 10, vuifh h.
In few weeks after he claims to have re-
ceived the injury upon which his applica-
ton il based.
INCONSISTENCY POINTED OUT.
In the last case, that OF Chandler, the
president, after reviewing the various ap-
plications made for pension and their re-
lection, says:
There still remained an appeal to con-
gress, and probably there were not want
in advising such an appeal and
who had at hand congressional presidents
which promised a favorable result. That
the parties interested did not miscalculate
the chances OF success is demonstrated by
the bill now before me, which, in direct op-
position to the action Ut the pension
bureau, grants q pension to man who,
though discharged from enlistment for
certainalleged disability, made two ap-
plications for q pension based upon
two distinct causes, both claimed to
exist within two months prior to
such discharge, and both different from
the one upon which he accepted
the same; and Notwithstanding the fact
that the proposed beneficiary, after all
tho disabilities had occurred, passed an ex-
animation as to his physical fitness for re-
enlistment, actually did re.enlist and serv-
cd till finally mustered out at the close OF
the war. II any money is to be given this
man from the public treasury, it should
not be done under the guise OF a pension.
