Baltimore Sun.
Ex-Uommissioner Of Pensions Tanner,
now resident Of Washington and In the
enjoyment of 3 paying practice as pension
attorney, Is Of opinion, according to q
correspondent of the New York World,
that "the pension Office needs thorough
ogerhauling and reorganization. 1t will
be source of qualification to the general
public to know that the former head of
the offlce-who may be supposed to know
whereof he speaks-is so much Ia agree
ment with 1t on this point. The pen
sion office does undoubtedly need
an overhauling, and great deal of Il.
The pension office, the ex commits
sioner explains, sis used by some public
men as an asylum where they can place
their lmpecunlous and almost helpless
friends and constituents and have them
we'll cared for at the public expense.
That abuse extends further than the
country lie advised Of I" The bad con-
dition of the office he attributes chiefly
TO dead timber In the shape Of helpless
and useless clerks A conscientious
application of sound principles of civil
service reform would cure this evil Let
the Secretary of the Interior bat give the
word. and only competent persons
would be employed and the In.
competent would be dismissed.
But there is something worse in the
office, the ex- commissioner suggests, than
mere incompetency There are" he
says. "sples and eonspirators, liars and
worse, TO be found employed there who
ought to 90 weeded out. and who must be
weeded out before any man holding Office
Of commissioner of pensions can carry
out anything roHv milling business policy
there. Those creatures hamI cred me
while | was commissioner, and have
no doubt that they az seriously hampered
General Rsum. The "cohspirators, liars
and worse" in the Office, acting In collu-
sion with pension sharks outside, seek, it
appears, to run the business OF the estab-
lishment In ways that will swell their
private purses and IL thwarted by theirsu
perior officer, they have It in their power
to make trouble for him by going to the
Secretary Of the Interior. The commits
sioner, Mr.. Tanner asserts, is not sufi
ciently his own master" It is supposed
that the commissioner has the whole bus
mess OF the Office in his own hands But
such it seems ID not the case.

This seems TO be a year o . ,rprisss
After sending out nearly $50, wv, 900 of
gold In shorter time than was ever dore
before, the stock market is not far from
the levsl of prices 1t had reached after
five weeks of good bull movement. We
can stop for a moment now, when IL is
said that the urgency of the European de
msnd Is over, and see what this immense
export Of gold has done for us. We have
never, since this country became one Of
the family Of great nations, sent ont so
much money in so short time-a few
weeks only. The demand came with i'm
perlous urgency, at q time whea the stock
market had advanced so far and so con
tinuously that reaction was in order
anyhow. Therefore 1t was struck az the
top. It was struck, too. on a side pc
culiarly sensitive after the still fresh ex
perieuce OF last November Ii ought TO
have gone all to pieces, according TO the
usual calculations. Instead OF this the
market resisted stubbornly tine depress-
ing conditions, rsllying on every oppor
tunity, and some Of the leading stockE
had got back close to the bast prices
quoted for them this year. The money
market which might have been OK xDeeted
TO be frightened into spasms. has been
quite easy call loans the past week were

Tanner knows what Place 1t Is

Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
Tanner has been talking sgain. He is
one Of the men who when he uses his
mouth generally says something, though
1t is not always agreeable 10 the ears
OF his friends or foes He was a victim
Of his own recklessness in this respect
when he lost his official heard Butt man
like Tanner may sometimes be put to good
uses Thus, when he tells as in recent in.
terview, what kind of place the Pension
Bureau is, he is certainly performing a
genuine public service There is enough
In what the ex- commissioner says In this
respect TO demand the practical attention
Of those in authority. His story is a
virtual arraignment Of one of the most
Important disbursing departments OF the
Federal Government In fact more money
is now paid out for pensions than on any
other account. Tanner was in the office
long enough to know just what kind OF a
place 10 is.
