NO COMMISSIONERS YET.
The Pension Once Problem Is Stil
Without Solution.

The delay in the appointment of commits
sioner Of pensions has brought forward great
many names for the place, and the consequence
is that matters appear more mixed than usual.
The latest report is that it was offered
to Representative Morrill, of Kansas, who was
at the head Of the republican side of the PEN
sions committee in the House last Congress,
but MIR. Morrill, would have to resign his seat
in Congress to accept and it OF thought
that any sort OF pressure would induce him
to do this Kansas has already lost one Of her
best Representatives in Congress by resigna-
ton in the person Of Mr.. Ryan, who was ap-
pointed minister to Mexico. The state has
remarkably strong delegation in Congress, but
the people will hardly like to lose any more Of
them in this way
Gov. Golf of West Virginia has been spoken
OF for the place, but he says that if the position
were offered him (Which he does not think
likely to occur) he would not, under any cir
cumstances, accept it.
Gems. Rae, Gibson. Kniher, Fairchild and
lots of others prominent in the Grand Army
are still spoken of, but there appears
to be hitch in some way or other wherever
the President turns. There is some idea
among Grand Army men that he might look
among the men of ability who were privates
during the war. There is some talk, too, of a
civilian being chosen. This latter is not, how
ever, generally regarded as likely thing to
happen.
1t does not seem any more probable that Gen.
Warner will accept than it did day or so ago,
but as long as there is any doubt on this sub
ject no other person will be appointed to the
place.

A SECTIONAL APPEAL.
The Bid Of st. Louis for the Worlds
Fair Likely to Defeat Her Aspirations.

The city Of st. Louis has heretofore been a
candidate for the high honor of being the place
where the great exposition of 1892 should be
located, but the publication of printed
circular sent out conidentially by Gov.
Frances as governor of Missouri and
chairman Of the committee of two hundred.
has had, to say the least of it, an injurious
effect upon Its chances.
The circular is lengthy one and is ad-
and the southwest. Attention is directed
to the fact that st. Louis is emphatically a
southern city, more fairly, representative
industries and population than any
other city in the Unied States. .In
spirit of identity and interest" saws
the appeal, in commercial afinities
and historical associations St Louis stands
connected, from the earliest to the latest days
In. spirit, hospitality and hberality
St Louis people have been az
fected by southern influences and have
been drawn into closer social and business re-
lations with that portion of the country than
any other. = At st. Louis the south
and southwest can obtain a better representa-
ton Of their industries than at any other city.
The people of st. Louis and Missouri are
their friends and neghbors and will co-operate
readily and effectively in all their desires and
uesigns. through every line OF the circular
sectionalism is plainly visible, but II
becomes obstrusively unjust in the following
paragraph: III the fair is located ON the east,
ern seaboard, or away north Of all southern in
terests and influences, this (referri ,g to the sd
Santages before quoted cannot .,e expected.
TO reach the scene Of the fair, and when they
get there they will find Themselves almo:t
strangers and under the dominant infIuence Of
eastern spirit and ideas"
Southern arguments follow to such an extent
that northern Congressman viii, il Il almost
certain, resent tlDe attempt made BY the gov
nor Of Missouri to secure the exposition by
purely sectional appsala

FRAUDULENT BONDS.
Supposed Plans of a Gang Of Adroit
Swindlers.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2S.-A dispatch from Kansas
City, NO., says: There is every reason to be-
heve that gang of adroit swindlers is prepar-
ing to flood the eastern cities with fraudu-
lent bonds Of counties in southwestern
Kansas and northwestern Texas. Bankers here
have been receiving inquiries from the east for
several weeks in regard to bonds of various
Kansas and Texas counties most of which have
not been listed here. In the northwestern por-
tion of the panhandle Of Texas is an immense
grazing groundand this county is selected as the
seat Of operations. The swindlers make their
headquarters in some small town. procure sip-
natures to petitions for the establishment
Of counties, file their petition with the
secretary of state and get the bound
airy lines established and hold bogus elections
at which bonds are voted. A high rate of in
terest is promised and the bonds are listed con-
siderably below par.
The agencies are established, where the
bonds are sold to the smaller class of investors.
who are persuaded that large returns
will follow the investments in these
worthless securities. The authorities of Texas
have about run the swindlers to earth, but are
holding of until they have suf6cient evidence
to break up the gang

CASE OF OFFICER BLOCK.
The Hearing-District Attorney Hoge
and MIR. w. A. Cook Lock Horns.

The examination in the case Of Detective
Sigmund ]. Block on the charge Of compound
ing felony in allowing Frank Brainard, alias
Monroe, charged with the larcency Of jewelry
from Mrs. Alice Parker, to leave the city, was
resumed this morning before United States
Commissioner Stone in the Criminal Court
room. Mr.. A. G. Riddle appeared for the
defendant and Mr.. W. A Cook for the prosecu-
ton.
Testimony for the prosecution was resumed.
Mr.. W. Z. Williams, clerk of the Criminal
Court, produced the docket and testified that
there was no record Of charge against Mum
roe for the Parker robbery.
Detective Raft testified that he was assigned
to the Parker robbery and did something in
the case, but Mr.. Block took the case subse-
quently. On cross-examination witness said
that in Mr.. Armes' Office Block ex-'
planned the Parker robbery as well as
the other. Armes said he would
make charges against Lowenstein and would
use Monroe as q witness. Detective Horne de-
MED that he told the clerk at police headquar-
tiers that nolle pros. had been entered On
cross-examlnation witness explained that Mrs.
Parker positively refused to prosecute Frank,
and Mr.. Block told her that she would have to
see the district attorney.
The testimony OF Assistant District Attorney
Armes before Judge Miller in the Police Court
was by agreement accepted as evidence in this
case.
C. Z. Vernon, lieutenant in charge OF the
fourth precinct, produced the entry Of arrests
and read that Of Frank Monroe, June Is, by
Block.
Jerome Desio testified to ring given up BY
him to Detective McDevitt.
TESTIMONY FOR THE DEFENSE
Officer Horne was called by defendant and
testified that Block distinctly told Monroe that
he could make no promises.
District Attorney Hoge testified that Mrs.
Parker expressed her disinclination to prose-
cute and he sent word 10 her that he would not
require her to appear. He acted in this mat
ter according to the discretion allowed him
On cross-examinatlon Judge Hoge said that
he had advised in q number Of cases no prose-
cution, especially when Q child is charged with
larceny from parent
Mr.. Cook asked Judge Hoge TO give any au-
tnority ne had for arresting prosecution.
THE QUESTION EXPERIMENT.
Judge Hoge declined to answer, stating that
he regarded the question as impertinent. He
knew nothing Of the arrangement TO send
Monroe out Of the District He had taken the
course under the discretion allowed him, which
he had frequently exercised in other casea
Mr.. Cook asked II II was not his desire 90
shield the Monroe and Seston families which
prompted his action.
Judge Hoge answered emphatically, ssNo,"
and said be would submit If he should be fur
ther questioned in this matter
The Commissioner said that the examination
was going too far.
Mr.; Block, the defendant, then took ths
stand.

SHIPS AND NAVAL AFFAIRS.
Interest Felt In Report Of German
Board OF Investigation.

LONDON, Sept IA good deal OF genuine
curiosity u felt BY English experts 10 see the
report OF the board Of ofscers detailed By the
oerman admiralty TO investigste the condition
OF tne vessels belonging to the navy, the
ooek yards, and facilities for adding 70

seafaring people who have won plentiful hoporv
adoat and that their discipline Is a toler.blv
good one, but there is q feeling that
there are any improvement 70 be
made in sailing or fighting ships Enelishmep
should know them. There is O sneering tone
in the remarks Of some Journals and suppressed
incredulity in those OF others, but beneath all
can be detected an anxiety TO know what mys-
terious maneuvers the German board 90 conf
IDENTITY recommend as likely to prove effective
in case Of need.
THE GERMAN ARMY rs An oByrcr or DREAD
and the same iron discipline applied 10 the
navy might or might not make the sister arm
Of the service an equal terror and menace
to other nations. An article in the Army and
Nary Gdzette, signed with the initials Of .
prominent naval authority, gives as the writer's
apinon that the day Of fleets and concerted
pians mas gone by and that random
combats and torpedo skirmishes will
be in future the rule. The author
is inclined to ridcule the German idea Of pre-
concerted tactics or new methods Of training
seamen, is confident of the superiority OF
English seamanship to any sought 10 be manu-
factured TO order and alludes TO the proyerbisl
dificulty OF making ducks out of hens
In tine meantime the confession of Construct
ing Engineer Panneck is proof that the Ger
man naval service is by no means a model TO
Others as yet. So many officers Of high rank
have been named as implicated in the i'm
mense frauds at kiel that il is most likely that
while some Of the offenders will be quietly
punished further reports will be suppressed
andf
TIE MATTER ALLOWED TO DIE OCT.
Further, apropos Of naval affairs, Sir
Michael Hicks-Beach viii find that his
Recommendation Of the formation Of .
naval reserve, to be composed Of fishermen
and merchant seamen, TO be drawn upon in
emergencies, is not likely TO work very
smoothly. Such men detest the naval service.
They are too independent to take kindly 10 the
rigorous discipline, and, moreover, are of an
age at which they have formed their habits of
life and desire least OF all 70 form new
ones. All prominent naval officers are of the
opinion, though they might not care TO express
It, that In the event Of q prolonged war the old
fashioned resort Of impressment would be
found imperative in spite Of the outcry it
would produce.
