One of His Orders.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-Assistant Secre-
tary of the Interior Bussey to-day, il de-
Gliding pension appeal case, rescinded an
order Of Commissioner Tanner, which reads
as follows:
April 25 1sS9:-Order all cases where
pensonable disability is found, the rate allowed
shall not be less than 81 per month"; to date
from and including March q, 1899.
JAMES TANNER. Commissioner.
In the case under consideration the PEN
sioner had been rated under this order,
which was cited as authority for the rating.
PLAINLY ERRONEOUS.
Secretary Bussey, after reviewing at
length the existing law, and the former
practice of the bureau. says: "The error
of the above mentioned order, issued April
25, 1889. by the late commissioner of pen
sions, is manifest, and resembling of it
necessarily follows. 1t has neither the color
of law nor the authority of precedent. If,
however, it appear to you, in the light of a
medical examination, that the pensioner is
entitled to an increased rating for an in
crease of disability from chronic diarrhea,
you will proceed to adjudicate his claim
accordingly"

A CARPET TRUST,
American Manufacturers Seriously

american ManufaCturerS Seriously
Considering Its Organization.
Boston, MASS, Oct. 9.-Ihe American
Wool Reporter will say tomorrow: "a
meeting was held at the Fifth Avenue hotel,
New York, yesterday. to consider propo-
sition to form a carpet manufacturers trust.
Many of the larger carpet manufacturers
of New England, New York and Phla lei
phia were present. The real object of the
meeting (which was held with closed DOORS
was to discuss the situation, and, if prac-
ticable, to take the initial steps to-
ward forming trust or close combination.
1t is stated on reliable authority that the
promoters of the scheme have interested a
majority of the manufacturers, considered
as to the amount of production, and that
they expect to be able to control from IS to
S5 per cent. of the whole production. There
are those on the outside, though directly
concerned in this movement, whose
interests would be seriously affected should
the trust be econsummated, who are inclined
to regard the whole thing as visionary and
without the shadow Of a probability of
being carried through. A carpet trust is
among the possibilities, however, and it is
said that German and other capitalists
stand ready to put $25, 600, 600 into it.

BROWNS pETTERMENTs.
The House Against Granting a Per-
sonal Interview.

ATLANTA, GA, Oct 9-The movements
Of the joint committee appointed to confer
with the lessses has so far been character
lied by considerable changeableness. The
committee contemplated that the claim Of
the lessees for bettorments should be sub
mitted in writing. The committee on Sat
urday advised President Brown that they
would receive q communication from
the lessees Tuesday afternoon. Presi-
dent Brown requested the committee TO
meet him at his hotel instead of at the
capital, so that he could submit the claim in
person. The committee yesterday refused
TO do this, and insisted that the claim must
be submitted in writing. The committee
reconsidered this action this morning and
agreed that in submitting written claim
the lessees might make an oral statement
and argument, and gave the lessees three
speeches and six hours.
THE HOUSE SAYS NO.
The minority of the committee on this
question brought the matter up in the House
this afternoon, and a resolution was adopted
that oil the committee was expected to do
was to receive q written statement from the
lessees. II tie committee regards this ex-
preSslon from the House the lesSees Will not
be heard from orally. There is growing
feeling in the House, always strong, that
the joint committee ought not to have been
appointed, and the present prospect of delay
Is not what was expected when the original
resolution was adopted.

morning, and Mr.. Olive completed his argu-
ment started yesterday. He offered sub
