WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-Commis-
sioner of Pensions Tanner did not put
in an appearance at the pension Office
to-day and deputy Commissioner Hi
ram Smith is acting commissioner. 1t
is believed that the commissioner has
taken leave of absence until the time
for him to turn over the office formally
to his successor. His daughter, who is
his confidential secretary, was at her
post of duty to-day.
Secretary Noble was asked to-day
if he intended to make public the
correspondence between himself and
Commissioner Tanner, which, it is said
the secretary laid before the preSi-
dent and ON which he based his rea-
sons for asking that the commissioner
should vacate office. The secretary re-
piled that he had no intention at pres
ent to make the correspondence public
but if it was deemed necessary, and
there was any public demand for it.
he might do so in the near future
Secretary Noble also refused to say
anything y it'll regard TO the common
report that Hon. VIM. I'll. Warner
would be in Washington to-day, IN res
ponse to telegram sent to him In re-
gard to his taking the Office of commits
sioner of pensions.
Hon. VIM. Warner, ex-member OF
congress from Kansas City, and ex-
comAander-in-chief of the G.. A. r..
arrived in Washington this afternoon
and spent two hours in cOnSultatiO
with Secretary Noble. AS he came Out
of the Office hf said in answer to ques-
tions of a reporter: Secretary Noble
and / have discussed nothing but the
affairs of the Sioux commission as yet. >
sDidn't you incidentally refer Il
the pension commissionership?n
ssOh yes. incidentally. not only &c
that but to several other matters, but
we discussed nothing but the Sioux
commission and its business.
just then the secretary appeared &C
hand Mr.. Warner several kilograms
that had preceded his coming, and be-
ing appealed to, he confirmed Mr..
| Warmers statement as to their discus
sion Secretary Noble told the re
porter there was nothing new in re-
gard to the appointments OF another
pension commissioners. The report OF
| the investigation committee of the pen.
sion Office viii be in che report to-mor.
row. Secretary Noble has already seen
| if. Whether il viii be made public il
not known.
The appearance of Geo. S. Merrill
insurance commissioner OF Massachu-
sets, and an ex-eommander of the G.
A. 3. in Washington to-day had caused
considerable speculation. An invita-
tion TO cOme to Washington was teIe-
grabbed him at Boston with the know,
ledge IL not at the request Of the presi-
dent. but he had already left there fol
this city on business ana called at ths

Opinions divided tonight as TO thu

Topeka, Sept. 1.-THE mayors and
and councils of Winfield, Arkansas
City, Humboldt, Larned, Great Bend
and independence have made COM
plant to the railroad commissioners
against the Missouri Pacific, Frisco,
Santa Fe, Missouri, Kansas s. Texas
and the Rock Island, alleging discrim-
ination in freight rates against their
towns. They demand she same rates
as that given to Wichita few months
ago in an order made by the railroad
commissioners by which what are
known as the Wichita jobbing rates
were established. The commissioners
have set Monday, September q, as the
date for hearing these cases.
The Farmers Alliance of ScottSville,
has complained to the commissioners
that the Central Branch railway is
discriminating against them in the
shipment Of grain. The members of
the Alliance decided to ship their own
grain, but it is claimed the regular
shippers, IN collision with the Central
Branch agent, undertook to freeze out
the Alliance by refusing to furnish
them cars, while at the same time it
was supplying cars TO other shippers.
The board in a decision to-day says:
1.-THE rule insisted on by this board is
that cars must be furnished impartially

general Alger,s opinion.

DETROIT, Mich. Sept. I3.-When
General Alger was asked last night
what he thought of Mr. Tanners res
ignation, said: well, that is q hard
question to answer until the facts
come out. I know in a general way
that he has been accused of exceeding
his authority as pension commissioner.
If he has done so, / am sure that it
was unintentional. l do not believe he
wotld do any dishonorable act, but
owing to lack of business capacity
he may have made serious mistakes in
his conduct of the Office. 1t is unfor-
tunate that all this should happen,
but at present it is matter entirely
between the secretary of the interior,
and commissioner Tanner. When /
was in Milwaukee, General BusSey
and Mr.. Tanner both sought my adj
vice. 1 urged them to bury their diff
ferences and pull together harmoni-
ously, but it seems that they could not
be reconciled. II have been asked
what the G. A. r. think about it. -
General Alger said in conclusion, ssbut
under the circumstances they have no
feeling except one of regret. They
will have no opinion to express until
the facts come out. No, have not the
slightest idea who who will take I an
ner's place. have great respect for
Mr.. Tanners absolute confidence in his
integrity and greatly regret his resig-
nation. -

NEW YORK, Sept. I3.-Long before
10 o'clock this morning the hour set
tor tue funeral of the late Samuel
Sullivan Cox. the First Presbyterian
church began to fill with ilIustrious,
humble mourners and admirers of the
dead statesman before the services be-
gan. The church was filed as it was
necessary to close the doors leaving
many people on the outside.
The floral tributes to the departed
were unusually magnificent. at 1925
a. m. the funeral cortege arrived. In
the line Was Grover CleYeland aud
Vice President Morton, General W. T.
Sherman and Judge DAILY, w. IL.
Northrup and John T. Agnew, George
Hoadley and Douglas Taylor, S. K.
Kimball and George Francis Train.
Immediately behind came tie bier
borne by John ID. OiConnor, Mr..
Hirchfield, NJ. H. AVhaIen, John Henry
Mccarthy. j j. Morris, j. FL. Resisting,
n. j. Kearney and Henri BiSchoff.
Close to the coffin walked the be-
reayed wife leaning on the arm of her
brother-in-iaw. DIR. Deems read from
the scriptures. The Rev. DR.. w. II.
MIlburn, the blind chaplain of the
house of representatives. followed and
delivered a short address. The Rev.
L. Dewitt Talmage spoke very beauti-
fully of MIR. Cox's character as a typi-
cal American. The Interment was at

Continuing, Mr.. ingalls, said: The
confederates have broken every prom
lse they made to save their property
from conEiscatiOn and when they de-
clare that Jem Davis and Lee were pa
triOts TO be elaSsed with Lincoln and
Grant, denounce it as an outrage
upon this nation On the matter of
pensions, Mr.. Ingalls, said: THE
wealth OF this nation increases $500, :
O00, Oo0 with every tick of the watch
and the soldier has earned it all; with
out him there would have
been no treasury, no nation
and he is entitled to his
percentage of it. There are Just
three things that ought to be done, .
said the senator. First, the limitation
on pensions ought to be removed;
second, the disability pension bill
ought to become a law, and third.
every soldier who received an honor
able discharge ought also to receive g
pension These were the results thai
Commissioner Tanner had sought to
attain in his administration of the
Office of commissioner of pensions and
Mr.. ingalls, honored him for his high
desire and brave efforts in behalf OF
the veteran soldier. 1.-THE only fault

million acres of land in Northern and
