CLUBBED AND ROBBED.

Jonn Ill. Heizer Set Upon by Highwaymen
in the Northeastern Section.
John III. Heizer, living at 1905 Ninth street,
was waylaid and robbed last night at the corner
OF First and II streets northeast and so badly
beaten that he had to be taken to Providence
Hospital in the ambulance wagon. Mr.. Heizer
was returning from Cold Park, Nd, and left
the cars of the Baltimore and Ohio Company at
Delaware avenue in order to make short cut
home. He was passing across the street at the
point named above and while skirting between
two freight-cars was set upon by two men,
who he thinks were white. He made gallant
resistance, but they beat him down with clubs
and then robbed him of his pocketbook, contain
ing nearly fifty dollars He was left in an in
sensible condition and when found was very
weak from loss of blood. Lieut.. Kelly had him
at once removed to Providence Hospital and
set his officers at work. MIR. Heizer says he
does not know the parties. 1t was one of the
most dastardly affairs that has taken place in
our city for years.

Main Feature of the Bill as Reported to

Main Feature of the Bill as Reported to
the Senate Yesterday.
Senator Allison yesterday reported, with
amendments, the bill making appropriations for
pensions for the next year. The changes made
in the original bill increase the allowance to
pension attorneys from 50 to SIS as compensa-
tion for prosecuting any claim, no such sum to
allowed for clerk hire is increased from $780,
600 to $500 600, and section is added authoriz-
ing the Secretary of the Interior to arrange the
agencies for the payment of pensions into
three groups, for which purpose the bill appro-
the change. Another section is added extend
ing the same powers to special examiners in
administering oaths in investigating suspected
attempts to defraud the Government as are al
lowed to clerks detailed by the Commissioner

Some very interesting points are raised by Mr..
JACQUES VAN RAALTE, the Hollander who the
other day brought suit against Secretary BLAINE
to recover S125, 900 with interest which he in
vested in Confederate bonds during the late
war. VAN RAALTE sues Mr.. BLAINE as an
officer of the United States because the United
States itself cannot be sued, and because he is
the successor of Secretary SEWARD, who in 1865
issued the proclamation providing that the
United States nor any State should pay any
debt incurred in aid of insurrection. VAN
RAALTE contends that this proclamation was
illegal because it included debts already con-
tracted by States which, according to the i'm
plcations of the proclamation itself, had never
lost their status in the Union, and were there
fore competent to contract obligations which
could not be repudiated by the Secretary of
State of the United States. These are very in
teresting points Mr.. VAN RAALTE raises, but it
is not at all likely he will ever raise anything
else on that S125,000 worth of Confederate
bonds, which had the spots knocked out their
value by SEwARD's proclamation.

The Republican party has given of late so
many indications of an intention to retire per-
manently from business that the promoters of
new political enterprises are getting things into
shape so that the Democrats may not be left in
monopolistic possession of the field. First,
there's the Farmers Alliance, which is getting
its shares on the market West and South in true
hustler's style. And now comes Mr.. PowDERLY
with prospectus for new industrial political
scheme, in which all wage-workers may become
stockholders without even dropping nickel in
the slot. No, the Democrats are not going to
have any monopoly when the G. o. P. winds up
its affairs shortly, They will have to meet
lively competition. The days of soft snaps in
national politics are gone forever apparently
There's little chance of any one getting too
much of good thing

'EPARATIoN AND WILL BE ISSUED
PROMISES TO THE SIOUX.
To BE Carried Out Precisely as the Indians
Understood Them.

To BE Carried Out Precisely as the Indians
Understood Them.
In the Senate yesterday Mr.. Dawes presented
conference report on the bill to carry out in
part the provisions Of the act to divide the
Sioux Indian reservation; and in explanation
he said that the commission of which Gen.
Crook was the head had promised the Sioux
Indians in the course Of the negotiations to use
its influence at Washington for the redress of
certain grievances.
The commission had subsequently met repre-
sentative Sioux Indians from the reservation
Wnere the present outbreak occurred to see
that those outside assurances were carried out
The Indian committees of both Houses were
also present, and all being together bill had
oeen prepared to carry out exactly the assur-
ances as the Indians understood them. That bill
had passed the Senate in April last, but from
difficulties in the other branch of Congress it
had not passed the House until last month, and
then it contained a duplicate appropriation of
100000. The Senate had struck out that du-
plicate appropriation, and hence the necessity
of conference. AS the bill now stood with that
duplicate appropriation struck out) the bill car
ried out to the letter not cnly the assurances of
the commission as the commission understood
them, but also precisely as the Indians them
selves understood them, so that with the
original bill and with the pending bill all the
stlpulatlons OF the agreement and all the assur-
ances OF the commission would be fulfilled
and there could be no ground on which the In
dians could complain of the Government in any
matter out of which the existing disturbances
had arisen.
The conference report was agreed to.

Columbus sailed, and erect wharVes at La

discoverer took refuge. Near the convent a

Advanced civilization-the railroad, the tele-

the human race to degenerate, but it is in q way
consoling to observe that they seem to have no
effect on the weather Winter now and then
compels the modern world to acknowledge that
it retains all the vigor and igor it was famed
for of old. This country has felt it in much of

Congress had better pause and take glance
back atrecent legislative history before it passes
a free-coinage bill with the expectation that it
win make times and money easier Most of the
laws passed of late seem to do just precisely the
contrary to what they were expected to do. The
law taxing oleomargarine was passed with the
expectation that it would destroy that business
In reality the oleomargarine business is more
hourishing than ever it was before. The Nc
KINLEY bill was passed with the expectation
$50 it was said) that it would cut down foreign
imports. Foreign imports are heavier than ever
In view Of these facts the best thing Congress
can do when it wants to accomplish anything
If It ever does seriously have such desire) is
to legislate for exactly the opposite.

The opposition to Cameron seems to have
been largely of newspaper character. The
Senator seems to strenuously avoid giving
newspaper men the slightest ground for liking
him. There is no well-authenticated case on
record where newspaper man ever got any
thing out of him. He seems TO regard the whole
craft about as college boy egard, the proctor
who is always interfering With his fun and
yanking him up for pecadilloes.
