BLACK ON malicious Pension Decision

Black ON Malicious Pension Decisions.
WASHINGTON. May 6.-Gen. Black,
late commissioner of pensions. has made
answer to the suit filed against him for
100000 for the malicious withholding
of pension claim. The general says
that the United States government is
bound to hold harmless all its officers for
their official actions, even though they
maliciously construe or nisconstrue the
law. The pension commissioner decides
average of 500 cases day, and if each
applicant whose claim is rejected were
to charge malicious intent it can easily
be imagined what a mass of litigations
the government would have todeal with.
1t is understood that Gen. Black has
consulted with prominent members of
the government on the matter.

Declining Ambition.

Those who are with Mr.. Blaine almost
constantly are particularly struck with
his loss of ambition. As he is remem-
bered in the ascending greatness of his
date his present indifferentA to public
applause and possible promotion yet be-
fore is subject of sad comment and
speculation. The premier of 1889 is not

President.
WASHINGTON, May 6.-An intimate
friend. speaking of Secretary Blaine's
evident indications Of physical wear un-
der the persistent pressure and impor-
tunity of aspirants for office, said that
Mr.. Blaine himself talks discouragingly
on the subject of his ability to safely
submit much longer to the strain inn
posed upon him. The cause of his re-
cent confinement to his room, while
technically lumbago, was much more
serious. as his increased paleness reveals.
Overwork the Trouble.
The physicians familiar with the con-
dition of his health insist that there ex-
lists 10 organic trouble as far as they can
determine, but the symptoms of break

will culminate in complications If he
persists in the performance of his present
arduous task of satisfying the personal
demands made upon him by inconsider-
ate aspirants for office, whether friend
or stranger.
A person in the full vigor of health
would find this sort of usage day after
day heavy tax. 1t is, therefore, not to
be wondered at that Mr.. Blaine is not
improved in health by tlie&pres of Off

About six O'Clock last evening Jerry
Maloney, bookkeeper, was arrested by
officers Wilkins and Dugan, at 20 North
Main street, for creating a disturbance
by being drunk and disorderly. His
wife was attempting to persuade him to
go up stairs to their rooms, but he re-
fused and abused her. whereupon DR..
f. Taylor, who occupies one Of the rooms
on the same floor as Malonev, attempted
to take the inebriate up by main force.
A struggle ensued between the two men
and large crowd pressed into the hall
way to witness the scene. The patrol
wagon was sent for, and after show Of
resistance Maloney was conveyed to the
Police Station. His wife insisted upon
accompanying him to jail, and paied
several visits to the station in futile
effort to see him. She was informed
that she could not secure her husbands .
release until this morning, by which
time 1t was hoped he might have sobered
up sufficiently to be responsible.

How a Parrot Caused a Fearfully
Disastrous Hailroad Accidens.
Out in the far West on one cold night
in January horrible accident occurred,
says the Philadelphia Times. Snow sev-
eral feet in depth covered the ground.
The little town of B was perfectly
quiet, and not one Of its inhabitants
dreamed Of the scene of disaster that
would soon be witnessed. The
small station-house was for the
time deserted, the station-master
having gone to the store not
far distant. Poll sat all alone in the
cozy little station-house, ever and anon
talking to herself. "Poll wants
cracker; pretty Poll; pretty POLL" Then
with wise shake Of her head she flew
to shelf that was just above the tele.
phone, rang, and receiving the
dosn dosTsfs ils fnf Then 'hHgsss yss back TO
her perch she was quietly sitting
there when the master returned. There
was no telegraph in that part of the
country, and Poll had often watched
her master talk through the telephone to
the station-master at Jerome, small
town not many miles dietant. In about
half an hour the passenger train
was due. When it was nearly time
for the train to come the station. master
thought that he heard the noise of q
train in each direction, but, concluding
that he was mistaken, he did not trouble
himself to look out. In q few minutes
the passenger train passed up, but it did
not stop, and in another moment fearful
crash was heard, piercing shrek rang
out upon the night air, and then piteous
groans were heard. Snstching up q
lantern the station-master hurried out.
A fearful scene was before him. The
freight train attached to the engine 113
had come into collision with the pas
senger train.
Fifteen passengers and both engineers
were killed and five passengers were
injured seriously. In a short time the
whole town was astir The injured were
cared for and an engine arrived and
pushed tie broken cars on
. side-track. Much excitement pre-
vailed throughout the town.
The people wondered who it was who
had telephoned to the station-master at
Jerome. They did not solve the mys-
terry for many 9 long day and both
station-masters very nearly lost
their situations, but as nothing
could be proved against them they
were allowed to remain. One evening
in June az the station-master at B. sat
doHing in his chair he was aroused by
hearing the telephone ring. Looking up
be saw Poll sitting on the shelf above
the telephone and heard her call ont in
her shrill voice: "Send down 49,"
At last the mystery had been solved

Beside the loom of life stand
And watch the busy shuttle GO; g.h

Make up the filing; strand on strand
They slip my fingers through, and so
This web of mine fills out apace
While stand ever in my place. 81.

And colered with sunny dye:
Again the threads SO roughly twine
And weave SO darkly line on line
My heart misgives me. Then would

IL IL In she Air,

The cancer Of socialism is spreading.
In this country politicians shake hands
with the socialists, and some of the
preachers encourage them by denouncing
the capitalists.
Even Bismarck, in Germany, has
mixed socialistic methods with his ad-
ministration in order to conciliate the
revolutionists.
In England, Lord Salisbury has been
forced to support scheme for improving
wages and helping working people by
taxing the rich. Already taxes are
levied in England to build houses for
city laborers, to feed their children at
school once day, and to purchase small
lots Of land to give farm laborers. All
these things are now being done on q
small scale, and the movement is pro-
gressipg.

will never amount to anything in the

FILTHY PRISONS.

The Prisons Vote Attack in the House
 of Commons-After n Long Debate
 the Vote is Adopted.
 LONDON, Aug. 23.-In the House of Com mons this evening in the debate on the prisons vote, attack was made upon the treatment of Irish political prisoners. The case of Mir. Conybeare having been referred to, MT. Balfour announced that MT. Cony- beare was now cured and the only question remaining was as to the origin of his disease. McFadden, he said, was the previous occu- pant of the cell. A thorough examination revealed no trace of disease in the prison or among the prisoners. At the conclusion of the examinatisn he consented to the transfer of Mir. Conybeare to another jail.
 Mir. Blaine followed with an account of his experience in Londonderry jail. He declared that sick prisoners were never sent to the hospital until they are nearly dying. He had seen prisoners arrive suffering from lice. and other prisoners had been exhibited fro m the balcony to lady friends of the officers. He had never complained of his treatment because he new 1t was useless to do so. Mir. Sexton violently attacked Mr. Bal four's allusion to McFadden. MT. Balfour interposing, said he intended no insinuation. MT. Sexton, continuing, described the Lon QOnQ6rry JalI BE pest mousse where prleOu' CTS contracted fever and were thrust out to die. He detailed one case of fever amid groans from the Parnellites who, crying "another murder" "there's the assassin, invited Mr. Balfour to smile.
 Mr. Balfour said that long familiarity with such attacks induced contempt. Mir. Parnell, in the course of his speech contended that oakum picking was ill-paio work, and an endeavor to compensate fol this by reducing the wood supply. The re- | suit was the permanent enfeeblemsnt of thu prisoners. For himself he was con vineed that the Irish prisoners were
 half starved They ought to be provided with plenty of remunerative work and should ! be better fed. All the older prisoners are il ! a bad sanitary condition. He was glad tha MT. Conybeare had been removed, but h' l urged the house not to forget that thu 1 humber victims of Balfour were liable to b
 stricken at any moment, while MT. Balfoul
 disported himself with characteristic non ohalance.
 He hoped that Mir. Balfour would give nor
 assurance than that an engineer would b'
 appointed to lay the truth before the coun
 try. MT. Balfour would find his .procedur
 would only strengthen lrishmen Il | their determination not to yield. MI
 Balfour did not compel his pc
 Belfast forgers to clean the prison cesspool l as he did Fitzgibbon. The Parnellltes woul
 force this question until justice was oh
 tained.
 The prisons vote was adopted, 113 to 6s and all the other votes were agreed to.

INDIANA VETERANS.
What President Harrison Said

What President Harrison Said.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 23.-The Seventieth
 Indiana regiment held it's regular annual re-
 union at Tomlinson hall to-day. President
 Harrison presided at the mornings session.
 City Attorney Taylor delivered an address of
 welcome to which the President responded as
 follows:
 MT. Taylor: The survivors of the Seven
 tieth Indiana infantry now assembled in an-
 nual reunion have heard with great gratifca-
 tion the cordial words of welcome which you
 have addressed us. We have never doubted
 the hospitality of the citizens of this great
 city and have several times held our re-
 unions here. If we have more frequently
 sought some of the quieter towns in this con- 9ressionsl district where the regiment was organized, it has only been because we could be little more to our- selves than was possible in this city. You will not think this a self1sh instinct when tell you that, as the years go on, these re- uaions of our regiment become more and more family affairs, and as in the gathering of the scattered members of family in @ family re. union whom we have loved, when we get to gether as comrades to be some apart that we might enjoy each other. It has been pleas ant, am sure, however, to link this annual reunion with the great event of yesterday. Il did us good to meet with our comrades of the whole State, those who had other numbers on their uniforms, but carried the same flag under which we marched, in these exer- cises connected with the dedication of 6 monument that knows no regimental dis. tinction. fApplause.] I express, comrades, my own qualification at being able to meet with you. The change which was made in the time of our assembly has made this pos sible, and am glad to spend few moments with you to-day to forget altogether for the time being that am public officer, and to remember only that am your comrade and friend. (Applause.)
 If those having charge now will announce some proper arrangement by which I can take by the hand the members, not only oi the Seventieth Indiana, but any comrades of the First brigade who have done us honor by ! meeting with us to,day, will be glad to conform with their wishes. It is perhaps possible that without leaving the hall, simp- | ly by an exchange of seats, this may be ac. l complished. and when that Is done there may yet be time before dinner to proceed | with some of the other exercises upon the programme"
 The veterans listened attentively to this speech, and after the other exercises were ] over grasped the hand of their companion in l arms, now President of the United States.
