Countersigning Pension Cbecks.

The question of countersigning pension
checks after Endorsement has been question
of considerable difficulty with the agent lately.
1t has been the custom, in order to accommo-
date pensioners. for the agent to countersisn
such checks after indorsement that the
checks might be cashed without further identi-
hcation at the treasury and elsewhere. IL
has. however, been found physically impossible
to continue this plan except in cases where
pensioners are absolutely unable 70 secure
other Identification. 1t is thought safer to dis
continue the practice, too, as a countersigned
check If lost could be cashed by any one

day having become so large, il is desired by the
agent that all pensioners who can. without in
convenience, shall call at the agency between

The Case Dismissed.

Deputy Marshal Joyce today arrested Jas J.
Norris, a clerk in the land office, or a warrant
charging him with sending letter of an indie
cent character through the mails and took him
before United States Commissioner s. C. Mills,
where he was given a hearing.
Mr.. Andrew A. Lipscomb represented the de-
PENDANT and Mr.. Mullowney appeared for the
prosecution.
The complaint was made by Mr.. Moody, the
defendants brother-in-law and the warrant of
arrest was sworn out by Post Office Inspector
Smith.
The letter in question was addressed to Miss
NJ. Moody, at Steubenville. Ohio. Miss Moody
Is the defendants sister-in-law.

portion OF the letter was written by the de-
PENDANTS wife, who is clerk in the Treasury
Department.and that the husband UNDERSIGNED
portions of it with red ink and then mailed it.
Mr.. Lipscomb argued that the letter was not
indecent, and quoted q decision in support of
his claim.

peare's works as well as a hundred standard
works OF literature cannot be sent through the
mails.
The commissioner sustained Mr.. Lipscomb's
view Of the law and the facts and dismissed the

HON. LEONrDAs c. HoUK DEAD.
News OF the Pact Received Here-His Ex-
cellent Record.

cetlent Record.
private dispatch received here SAYS that
Congressman Leonidas C. Houk died at his
home in Tennessee this morning. Mistake in
medicine is given as the cause Of his death.
The news of Judge Houks death will be a
great shock to the large circle Of fri. Is which
he possessed in this city. Judge Houk in many
ways has made his name prominent In the poll
tics OF the country and during the last session
OF Congress as one Of the leaders Of the
southern republican delegation was especially
brought into public notice. He was a ready
debater. with a large amount Of humor and
sarcasm, and his speeches were always listened
TO with attention.
Judge Houk represented the second district
OF Tennessee, with his home in knoxville. He
was born In SEWER county, Tennessee
In 1886, and received little or no school
ed9cation. but by persistent labor at
ood moments, while working at his
trade as cabinet maker, gained
an excellent education and was admitted TO
the bar In 1859. In 1861 Judge Houk entered
.ne Union army as private, rapidly rising in
RANK until IN 1868 he resigned on account of
III health, holding at that time n coloneis
commission. After holding various posi-
lions In the state he was elected
Judge OF the seventeenth Judicial circuit
IN 1906 In 1872 he elected representa-
tive OF the lower house Of the legislature He
was member of the Forty-sixth Forty seventh
forty-eighth. Forty NINTH Fiftieth and Fifty
hrst Congresses and was reelected TO the Fifty
second.

NEW YORK, May 25.-The stock mari et
opened the new week with an active business.
which, however. was principally in half dozen
stocks. comprising st. Paul. Union Pacific, Atch-
ison, Rock Island, sugar and codage, while the
unusually strong tone of last week was missing
and some hesitation became apparent. First
prices were generally small fractions lower
than the closing figures of Saturday. though
a firm tone was Immediately developed, and
among the active shares advances over
the opening figures, extending to Il. were
scored. These gains were generally lost in the
later dealings, however, when the market was
less active. Cordage was exceptionally strong,
but sugar, which opened up l per cent,
scored only slight advance. st. Paul still re-
tanned its great preponderance in the dealings
but the market displayed no other marked
feature. At IL o'clock it was active and heavy,
generally at small fractions below the opening
prices.
Money is easy at 31za4 per cent The stock
market WAS decidedly less active after IL
o'clock. but no change in temper occurred,
prices slowly settling down until near noon,
when all the leading shares were frac-
tions below the opening figures. The
downward movement, which was the re-
suit OF the announcement that more gold would
60 out on Wednesday, made no further progress
and dizziness and stagnation marked the trad
ing in the last half hour. At noon the market
was dull and fairly steady, generally at small
fractions under fiHt prices.
