WASHINGTON, April 4: The
House Of Representatives took uu
the private pensions bills today.
Speaking on one OF these pension
bills, Stone, Of Missouri. declared
that no people had been despoiIel
and burdened under tie name OF
patriotism under the guise Of pension
laws as had the people Of the United
States he denounced the demands
Of the G.. a. II. and asserted that the
presidency was put up and sold to
the highest bidder. Thank God,
there was one grand man who de-
clined TO be party to such a sale.
Though he had fallen, he had fallen
bearing n reputation for wise, in
c0rruptible statesmanship, and en-
jOying the respect Of every honest
citizen. Applause on the demo-
cratic side. Benjamin Harrison
had attained his office by cash
raised by WananIakef and disbursed
by Dudley. Stone said he believed
the government had been generous
enough TO the soldiers. He (StOnel
favored granting liberal pensions TO
true, brave soldiers, but was opposed
TO granting pensions 70 undeServing
soldiers or to county jumpers.
After strong specifics in favor Of
liberal pensions by Deliver. Of
Iowa. and Flower Of New York, the
private pension bills passed.

WASHINGTON. April 5.-Shir
man, OF Michigan, denounced the
speech made by the gentleman from
Missouri. IL was no time to talk Of
the cost Of pensions. He well re-
membered the day when the cost
was not counted, when the govern
ment was prodigal Of money and law
ish Of blood; when the motives which

scanned and analysed. Then no
man was mean enough to suggest
that men went out TO risk their
lives for the paltry sum OF SIS a
month. A man who made such a
suggestion would have been
scorned, and looked upon as a
rebel. The gentleman from Mis-
souri, had cried halt, but the time
for halt had not come, and would
not come until reasonable provis-
ion had been made for the needs Of
every soldier of the country.
The country needed the service OF

widows, and n law establishing a
rule Of testimony in pension cases
