The wnIrE CAPS AGAIN. Start

The WHITE CAPS AGAIN.-Start-
ing in Indiana and Missouri and
extending through many States OF
the Union, numerous bands OF out
laws known as "White Caps, "have
been organized. Their outrages are
almost daily reported, and the latest
comes from Monroe county, Indiana.
where defenseless woman was
beaten simply because of some idle
gossip touching her life before her
marriage. The work of these villains
has called forth a bill which will
undoubtedly pass the Indiana legls
Iature which makes it "riotous con
spiracy" for any persons to band to-
gether or wear masks and commit
trespass or deprsdations of any kind
against persons or property. The
punishment is fixed at from three to
ten years in the penitentiary. 1t is
high time that such measure was
passed, and its vigorous enforce
meut by Undertaking and law abid;
ing officials will materially check
the regulators in their bighhanded
lawlessness. 1t would create sense
OF thankfulncss if band of these
outlaws could once be cought in the
act of whipping a helpless person
and given the same merclless treat
ment that they extend towards their
victims. That would be the most
satisfactory and effective punish
ment that could be melted out to
such heartless wretches. They give
no quarter. respect neither age nor
condition, and it is but just that
they some day fall into the meshes
they have prepared for Others. Cow
ardly in their raids, they would IN
doubtedly call Justify for mercy
when once they felt the lash upon
their own backs.

Tue mortgage sharks, as well as
various other kinds of sharks, that
prey upon the small fish of a COM
mercial city are attracting great
deal OF attention just now. The good
people thought they had good case
against one of the species few days
ago when German citizens house
hold was stripped of It's belongings.
But it turned cut that the fellow
was worthless sot and of course
that hurt the case against the rob-
Der. 1t, however, ought not to de-
tract to any extent from the depre-
dation Of the mortgage fiends. Lee
ultimate money lenders ought TO
combine against this class Of thieves.
Their business standing is greatly
lowered by the association of the
two classes in all weli-governed citi-
zeus and it would operate salts
factorily to lender and borrower
alike to have the shark driven
to the wall.

Digging Out Charred Bodies Every Few

William Flynn arrives tomorrow, has
charge of the Smoky City forces, stated to-
day that 1900 men would be at work in the
ruins by tomorrow morning. Three hun
dred arrived from Pittsburg to-day, and
500 more are announced to come under the
captaincy of William Flynn tomorrow
morning. There are twenty-six foremen
here, all levelheaded fellows, who keep
their unwieldy and almost exhausted
forces under masterful control. Although
they were scattered all over the waste
places to-day, the heavy work was done on
the point district, where couple hnnderd
mansions lie in solid heaps of brick, stone
and timbers Here the labors of the
searchers were rewarded by the discovery
of a corpse every few seconds. AS gener-
al thing, the bodies were almost unrecog-
nizable, unless by marks or letters OH their
persons. In every case decomposition has
set in, and the work of the searchers is be-
coming one that will test their stomachs
as well as their hearts.

Fourth ward school house, where planks
have been laid over the tops of desks, and
on them the remains are placed. When
corpse is dug from the bank it is covered
with mud, but it is taken to the ante-room

hydrant and the muck and slime washed
of. With the clash of knife the clothes
are ripped open, and an attendant searches
the pockets for valuables or papers that
would lead to Identification. Four men
lift the corpse on a rude table, and there it
is thoroughly washed and an embalming
fluid injected into the arm. Then, with
other grim bodies, the corpse lies in larger
room until it is identified or becomes
offensive. In the latter case it is hurried to

INTERIOR DEPARTMENT.
Assistant Secretary Bussey on Pen
sion Claims.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25,--Assistnnt Sec
rotary of the Interior Bussey, In the an
nual report of operations OF his Office In
the adjudication Of pension claims that
are appealed from the decisions of the
commissioners of pensions, says: Out of
1898 appeals on iile 1885 were considered
and disposed of, leaving 1900 appealed
cases pending July 1, 1889. Bussey
says: Much time has been applied to
the examination of motions filed by
claimants and their attorneys for con-
sideration of appeals that have been ad-
verseiy adjudicated by my predecessor.
In many instances these motions were
given special attention because they re.
lated to cases of law of fact and of prac-
tice that seemed to require immediate
action, and IN order not only that justice
might be done to claimants, but that the
Judgment of the department might be
promptly stated with reference to a
large class of claims that have been
unnecessarily rejected. As a re.
suit of this course number of
important rulings have been made with
q view to broadening and liberalising de-
partment interpretations OF law applica-
BILE to numerous mcritorious claimants
whose applications for pensions have
been uniustly denied, partly because of
technicalities and partly because. of the
narrow definition of pensional rights.

ITALY.
King Humbert Makes q Speech on the
Opening of Parliament.

ROME, Nov. 24.-The Italian parlia-
ment opened to-day. King Humbert,
in his speech, alluded to the the small
ness of the deficit in the budget and said
the governments wise and equitable
policy assured tranquility to Italy and
guaranteed peace which, thanks to the
concert of the great powers, appears to
be assured to Europe. This utterance
was greeted with great applause.
Continuing, the king said the ques-
tions which might disturb peace
had not yet all been
settled, and it was necessary therefore,
without undue demands upon the
budget, to continue to provide military
ana Eavai protection to Italian unity
and independence. He expressed hope
that the ornaments which all the pow
ers were preparing would not be used,
Italy, he said, would lay down arms in
Africa when an international arrange
ment should have been reached guaran-
teeing TO her the very considerable pos
sessions she now has in that continent
and recognizing the wide sphere of her
influence,
