PENSION CERTIFICATES Wr1HHrLn
Secretary Foster Fears There VIII Ne .
Large DeAcieney In the Tressury.


WASHINGTON. May 17.-Tho Washington
Gazette to-day charges that the payment Of
pension certificates In cases that have been
completed 10 being withheld at tho order OF
Secretary Foster. who fears that there will be
large deficiency In the Treasury at tho end
Of tho fiscal year. The Gdzeite says:
"Tbe pension attorneys. who have hundreds
OF cases on f1le. are writing to the Pension Of
fee every day asking why certificates Tor the
completed cases are not issued. and In most
cases tho letters OF the attorneys remain un-
answered.
at appears that Commissioner Rnum is act
ing under Instructions from Secretary Foster
to ward or largo deficiency. which seems
inevitable. Instead OF issuing certificates for
cases in the completed nles the Pension once
is pushing with all the force at its command
cases fled under the Disability net Of June.
1890. Last month 10000 claims under tho act
OF June. 1890. were Issued, and comparatively
few cases on the completed files were touched.
Tho Commissioner understands the position In
which he is placed. and hence no 10 willing to
let the completed files rcst. take all the criti-
ciEms OF the attorneys. and listen patiently to
the tales OF woe the claimants pour into
his ear II hs can only avert deficiency. There
is material difference 10 the amount received
By tho pensioner whose claim is fled under
The act OF June. 1890. and the claim In tho COM
pieted ale. Tho average difference 10 between
500 and $500.
"'H the Commissioner would issue
certificates for the completed casss' said
q prominent attorney, 1t 10 doubtful
II there would be anything like surplus
left in tho Treasury after the pensions for juno
aud July have been satisfied. or course It Is
possible that the pension appropriation may
be strung out until tho beginning Of the fiscal
year. when tho appropriation made last Con-
gress becomes available. but In order to do 90
the Commissioner must greatly curtail the

CONQUERING THE CONGO.
Remarkably Rapid Spread OF Missionary
Posts Through Tnat Region.

Remarkably Rapid Spread OF Missionary
Posts Through Tnnt Region.
Every white man in the Congo state is
surprised at the remarkable growth of
the mission stations in that region. The
missionaries are spreading all over the
Congo basin and nearly everywhere
they are finding a welcome from the
natives. Large towns near the equator,
little south of the Congo, numbering
from ten thousand to over thirty thou
sand people, are inviting missionaries to
settle among them. In November last,
says the Chicago Post, the Pioneer, Il
little steamer in the service of the Con-
go Bololo mission, started from Stanley
Pool on her hrsJ trip up the river.
Three months had been spent in tho
very arduous work of transporting the
steamer to Stanley Pool. The mission
stations she is to serve are already es-
tablished in the region which was first
visited about five years ago by Grenfen
and Won Francois, who found there an
enormous number of cannibals and
many fierce dwarfs, who gave them bat
tie nearly every inch of the way. These
same regions are now welcoming the
white missionaries. At the present rate
of progress in less than ten years there
will not be district of any Importance
between Stanley Pool and Stanley Falls
which will not be occupied by some
missionary society.
Mr.. Jansen, the governor general of
the Congo state, who recently returned
to Brussels, reports progress in all re-
spects He says the human sacrifices
and tribal wars ere diminishing in
number. Many natives wish to learn
useful industries from the Europeans.
Fields are cultivated on all sides and
many brick houses are building. On
the Kassai river, where Il few years amo
Wissmann had to fol 10 his way by using
arms, Jansen vc3 received with enthu-
siastic friendship by crowds of natives,
who bcsought him to stay with them
permanently. nthc other hand, where
the Europeans have not yet frequently
appeared, as on tho upper Lomami, the
natives still appear hostile and vanish
without bringing the provisions the
whites ask for. J&nsScn says it will not
be long before in these regions, also,
the whites will be received in friendly
manner

INVENTORS AND INVENTIONS.

An inventor has applied for patent
for an automatic child spanker.
A DOLL that writes letters on n slate
is a recent invention of a machinist in
Nurem burg, Germany.
The New Jersey man who secured n
patent on his idea of photographers on
the tips of pencils is said to have real
lied 5000, 900 from it.
HALLIDAY, the inventor of the cable
street-car system, states that the sight
of six horses vainly endeavoring to draw
a car up steep hill at San Francisco
first suggested to him the foundation for
his invention.
A NEW pattern of shoemakers' awl is
encircled by spiral spring. After a
blow has been struck and the point OF
the awl has pierced the leather, the re-
action of the spring throws it out again
and saves considerable time and trouble.
