with %. Burrows with 20 and Gen. Henderson

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.
Must Pay Duty on its Affairs, but the
Stained Windows can Come In Free.

Right Rev. John ]. Keane, rector Of the
Catholic University of America near Washing
ton, wrote to the Secretary Of the Treasury
recently requesting that certain stained glass
windows and carved affairs which are to be i'm
ported for the use of the chapel of the univers-
ity be admitted to free entry. Assistant Secre-
tary Tichenor has informed him in reply that
If upon examination by the appraising officers
the stained glass windows are found to be
paintings attaining to the rank Of works Of art
they will be admitted to free entry, but that he
regrets to state, however, that there is no pro-
vision of law under which the affairs can be
admitted free. He adds that the question re-
garding the free entry of such articles has
from time to time been considered by the
department and that 1t has been invariably
held that, inasmuch as they are neither ''statu-
airy" nor ''regalia" within the well-established
meaning OF those terms as contained in the free
list, they are liable to duty.

CAPT. BURKE IN CHARGE.
The Psn-Americans Proceed on Their
Way.

MILWAUKEE,, WIS, Oct 2S.-The All-Americas
travellers this morning left Chicago at o'clock
under the attentive care Of Capt. Burke of the
army.
This was because Of the fact that the special
agent, VIM. E. Curtis, remained behind
under advice of DIR. Yarrow, U.SA
Mr.. Curtis is obliged to take
rest. Anxiety for the success of the trip and
activity in attaining it have caused nervous ex-
haustion. He expects, however, to resume
his duties tomorrow.
The run to this city was uneventful save for
the boarding of the train at Western Union
junction BY the Milwaukee reception
committee, bearing tiny bottles of Miiwau-
kee lager as souvenirs and also hand
some pamphlets, all illustrative of Mil
waukee. The st. Paul road on
which the run is now being made also distrib-
uted elegant souvenirs. Upon ar
rival at Milwaukee carriages took
the party through the residence sections,
the art gallery, water works, breweries and to
. hotel at 80, where lunch was had.

PENSION OFFICE GOSSIP.
Some Rerated Employees who are
Not ON the Published List OF Thirty.

There was an air Of festivity about the PEN
sion Office today. 1t was not Observable, how
ever, until about o'clock. Prior to that time
1t was the same kind of dull rainy day at the
pension Office as in other parts Of the city.
But when O'Clock came Gen. Raum, the COM
missioner. made his first appearance at the Of
mosphere Of festivity that was diffused az
every step. He breathed forth the fragrance
Of grange blossoms and wedding cake, and his
smile was sufficient to dispel even the gloom Of
rainy day in the pension Office, for Gen. Raum
had been attending the wedding Of his daugh-
ter. When that was over he turned his foot
steps toward the office and his attention to
claims and pensioners. 1t was quite transit
tion, but Gen. Raum wore q smiling face and
ofice..offcials to share in the wedding rejoicing
GETTING DOWN TO WORK.
From O'Clock, however, he banished orange
blossoms and such things from his mind and
attended to business. He is gradually getting
hold OF the way the pension Office is run and is
beginning to be familiar with the pension busi-
ness. In the meanwhile he is dong nothing
except to attend to routine matters.
ABOUT DOZEN EMPLOYEES NOT ON THE LIST.
A STAR reporter was told today that the thirty
cases OF rerated pension Office employees, as
published in yesterdays STAB from the report
Of the commission, was incomplete. There
are about dozen MORE" the reporter was told,
"whose names are not included in that list.
Why they were omitted by the commission
from the 'empioye list il not known, but they
are in the office all the same"
1t seems that in two cases the rerated PEN
sioners have been officially requested to re-
fund TO the government the extra money paid
to them on account Of such rerating. 1t is not
known what action they will take, but the law
gives them sixty days in which to decide that
question.
THE CASE OF HIRAM SMITH.
STAR reporter was asked today why the
name of Hiram Smith, the first deputy COM
missioner Of pensions, did not appear in the
.employe list" published in yesterdays STAR.
MIR. Smiths case Is mentioned in the report Of
the commission, but it is not included in
the "employe list" His pension (to-
gether with ten others) was re-
rated by Mr.. Tanner, who based
his action on decision of Secretary Chandler.
The report of the commission expresses the
opinion, however, that this decision cannot be
regarded as q precedent, and does not agree
with Mr.. Tanner in his construction Of the law.
Mr.. Smith lost q leg and an arm and was draw
ing pension Of $685. His pension was rerated
and he was given q pension Of S72 per month.
The arrearages in this case are said to have
