she offered to pay the damages, but
the postmaster Informed her that the
matter had already been reported to
the department and must take It's
regular course. As the act of break
ing into the box is technically a
grave violation of the United States
mail laws and is punishable, speeu-
lation runs high as to the outcome
of the affair What makes the case
still more interesting is the fact that
the husband of the lady, Colonel
Ludlow, is one of the leading Re
publicaus of the city, and is a can
didate for postmaster in place of
the Democratic incumbent now
enjoying his last days of office.
Whether his wife's act in punching

yariously regarded.

LONDON. July 3o.-The Times special
from Buenos Ayres says: At the time
pickets of the Union Civica were being
extended, Provisional President Alem,
stated that negotiations were in prog
ress. and he expected them to be sue
ceSsful.
At noon the squadron began firing
on the government house and firing was
renewed in various parts of the city.
President Celman and his adherents
were obliged to abandon the govern
ment house. They took up their quar-
tiers in the street on the twenty-tifth OF
July. The squadron had improved its
aim so that every shot but one struck
the government house. Alem and Lopez
claimed after the bombardment ceased
that they had ordered the fire discon-
tinued. 1t is believed. however. that
the ammunition gave out and that this
led to the final capitulation of the I'm
ion Civica, whose chief reliance had
come to be in the navy. The ammuni-
ton in the hands of the insurgent land
forces was also insufficient.

Either Pension Commissioner Raum
should resign or his son John should go
out of the pension business. There
ought to be sufficient sense of the pro-
prieties OF life in the family to force one
of them to quit.
1t appears that man named Wilkin-
son and Mr.. john Raum have gone into
| the pension and bounty claims business,
the senior partner having an office in
the little village of Mount Carmel in
| this State. and the junior partner hav-
ing one i'll Washington, and looking
after cases before a bureau where his
father is Commissioner and one of his
brothers Il clerk. The firm is advertiS-
ing over Illinois and probably over the
country.
1t is not at ali pro bable that Messrs.
Wilkinson Il Raum have any special
facilities for getting business attended
to at the Pension Bureau. 1t would be
hazardous to favor them at the expense
of other claim agents. Still. the name
of public officer is being used to get
business for q firm of which his son is
one of the members. The old soldiers
will believe that an agent who is so near
+
tages which others do not possess. 1t
comes close, therefore, to being case of
getting business under false pretenses.
a son who had any delicacy of feeling
would not do any thing which would
subject his father to unjust but natural
suspicious. a father who cared much
for his good name would not tolerate
for a moment the attempt on the part
of son to trade on it. The members of
the Raum family seem to have thick
hides, however, and they may not mind
what the outside world is saying so long
as the cash comes in.
General Raum went into Office under
favorable circumstances. He had made
good record in the Internal Revenue
Bureau. He succeeded the surplus
BUSTER" Tanner, whose adminiStrat ton
of the office had been marked by irreg-
ularities, such as the rerating of pen
siOns. but for some time back the pres
ent mbent has been the object of
charges in and out of Congress, and to
some of them he has made no reply. So
far as these accus ations limited at mis-
conduct nobody who knew him be-
lieved them. When he was accused of
peddling out among his clerks the stock
of a company in which he was inter
ested he denied it, and his denial was
believed.
But in the light of this unrebuked APP
pearance Of his son as a pension agent
at time when the business, owing to
the passage of the dependent act is to
be a most profitable one, it is difficult
to see how far General Raum's denials
of past charges can be given much
weight. He has shown too plainly that
he has not a high standard of official
proprie ty-that he is willing to put up
with suspicion and distrust, so that
some member of his family may make
a little money out of the old soldiers.
His course is Notifying to every Hi
uoisan. -Chicago Tribune (Rep.).
