CoRroEAL TANNER, formerly Commits
sioncr Of Pensions, is said to have drop
ped into a pension practice that will
bring him from $4,000 to $25,000a year.
1t was fortunate misfortune that
drove Corporal Tanner back into pri'
yate life. His success shows how much
there is in the pension business for the
claim agent and once more causes the

A Pleasant Surprise,

WAsIISGroN, May l0.-Whcn John
G. Fremont was lieutenant In the Fourth
cavalry, In California, his accounts with
the Government were left in such state
that he has always been regarded rs the
official debtor to the Government TO the
amount of els, 900, and it has been one Of
the chief sorrows OF General Fremonts
later years that he was unable - secure
this balance against him. The other day
General Fremont called nj the ohlce OF the
Second Comptroller OF the Treasury, as
his financial circumstances arc such that
II his salary as u retired inalor-general
We're retained to meet this alleged short
age, he would be for some time In actual
want Al his request the Comptroller in-
vcstigatcd his accounts and discovered
that instead OF General Fremont being u
debtor, the Government had actually owed
him for over forty years sl, 900, aud Con
grcss will bc asked TO pay II.

Judge Aalleu Oppose. Leadville.

WASHINGTON. May 6.--Representa-
tive Townsend has received and filed with
the House judiciary committee q protest
from Judge Hallctt against tho establish.
ment Of term Of district court ut Lead
Vile.
In this protest Judge Hallctt says there
are now three places for holding federal
courts In Colorado. At Denver court sits
three to four months in each term-some-
thing like eight months In the year. A,
Pueblo tho court does not sit TO exceed one
month In each year, usually for two Or
three days, never exceeding week.
In each place circuits aud districts are
have concurrent Jurisdiction over the
whole State, so that II is in tho election OF
the parties TO bring their suits In one place
or another, rs they prefer. Removal suits
are taken to the court nearest to tho State
court from which they are received.
This statement, the Judge says, Is sum.
Client to show that, with these thrcc places
In tho district for holding courts, 10 per
cent. OF tho business transactions are at
Denver, and this, he says. is because the
litignnts prefer to go to Denver, tho larg.
est town In the State, rather than TO the
smaller places nearer home.
Tho reason for this Is that most OF tho
Colorado suits relate 10 mincs which can
bo better tried at some remote place where
there is no partisan feeling than In the
nelshborhood where the controversy
arises.
Hc considers tho fact that tho bill ere.
atcs new district In tho western part OF
tho State Is very Objectionable 70 the bar
and tho people.
Judge Hallett expressed In itailcs his DO.
lief thnt the people prefer to 70 to Denver,
and that an net compelling them 10 10
elsewhere would not bo acceptable. His
experience at Pueblo and Del Nortc
abundan,ly shows, hs says. that there Is
no reason Of convenlence or necessity for
having courts At different parts OF tho
State. He thinka tho bill In It's present
form ought 70 DO rejected.

Stanley Speaks on Africa.

LONDON, May 5.-The Geographic
cal Society reception to Stanley ut Albert
Hall last evening was notable event.
The Prince and Princess Of Wales, the
Duke OF Edinburgh, Duke Of Cambridge,
Duke OF Teck, Duke Of Fife, Duke Of Ar
gyle, Count of Paris and many other nots-
bles were present. The princes Of the
royal family headed the triumphal process
sion which conducted Stanley and his
colleagues into the hall The president Of
the society presented medals 10 Stanley
with an appropriate speech. Stanley re-
turned his thanks and proceeded to mar
ratio his adventures, assisted by chart.
The Prince Of Wales moved vote OF
thanks TO Stanley, and the Duke Of Edin-
burgh seconded the motion. The medal
presented to Stanley is gold. Copies in
bronze were presented to all Of his col
leagues. In the course Of his speech STAN
ley said carpers had asked what was the
utility Of exploration. He replied: The
gain to humanity was great, exploration
opened up a new, rich and productive re-
gion, and would enable them to teach
millions Of degraded human beings that in
the vegetable products far vaster value
than the flesh Of their fellow creatures.
1t was no cxaggeration to say that every
mile traversed would serve In the future
to extend British commerce, industry and
enterprise. Finally, they had extended
the British possessions to the eastern lin
its Of tho Congo, adding territory covering
thousands Of miles without the force Of
arms.

General Caprlvl.s Speech.

BERLIN, May 12.-Chancellor Co.
privi made long speech in the Reichstag
today In regard to Germany's colonial
policy. He said that regarding the bound
aries Of their respective possessions In
Africa. the predominating wish Of Cor
many was to go hand In hand with Eng
gland and TO cultivate the common inter
ests of both countries. Regarding slavery
the chancellor said: 1--WE must found
stations, and the bullet and Bible must
act in the civilization. Without killing
on the slave-dealers you can never
abolish slavery"
The colonial movement, he said, had Its
origin In the same idealism or romatic idea
OF unified empire. There was q surplus
OF this after war, and 1t was directed to-
ward colonizing. The movement was In
1udicious, as II one had only to raise his
hand to coniure forth Jumps Of gold and
ready-made cigars-and was begun with
little practical knowledge Of prudence
An atlas was taken and half Of Africa
painted blue. [Laughterl Such, how
ever was the invariaDle beginning of such
movements. 1t was difficult to convert
enthusiasm into hard cash, still he cher-
ished the hope that East Africa would be-
come fitting sphere for tho investment
Of private capital.
In reference to tho speech correspond
ent says: BY to days speech In the
Reichstag Won Caprivi passed with one
bound to tho first rank of European states
men. The opinion universally expressed
In the lobbies was that in comparison with
his predecessor he has nothing to fear.
His speech was IN intellectual treat Of the
first order. His whole bearing nnd es-
pecially the strength revealed by his con-
ciliatory manner toward opponents showed
nobility of nature, high integrity and
clearness Of purpose. Tho emperor and
Europe arc to be congratulated.
