Report on Pension Appeals Cases and
Purchase of Indian Supnlies.

Report on Pension Appeals Cases and
Purchase of Indian supplies.
WAsHINGToN, Nov. 23.--The annual
report Of Assistant Secretary of the In
terror Bussey is very lengthy. 1t deals
exclusively with the work Of the Board
Of Pension Appeals aud with the pur-
chase Of Indian supplies at the Govern
ment warehouse at New y ork. The re-
port shows that on July l, 1891, there
were 5000 appealed pension cases on file
with the board, and June 30, 1892, they
had been reduced 10 4.349. There were
4,25S appeals filed during the year. OF
the 4,939 cases acted upon during the
year the decisions OF the Commissioner
were sustained in 1866, his action re-
yersed in 464 cases; 20l dismissed and 100
cases reconsidered by the Commissioner
pending appeal.
IN this discussion of the pension laws
Bussey calls attention to several defects
in the pension legislation and makes nu-
merous suggestions for amendments. on
June 30, 1892, there were borne on the
pension rolls the names Of ,US7 PEN
sioners, Us, ,92S more than carried on the
same rolls at the end OF the preceding
fiscal year and 451 ,050 more than on the
rolls June 30, 1887,
General Bussey calls attention to the
fact that the appropriation bill for Indian
services is usually passed so late in the
year that it seems impossible to let con-
tracts for supplies in time for delivery
before the winter sets in, and this, espe-
clally as TO blankets and winter clothing,
caused much suffering. lie recommends
that the appropriation for these supplies
be made one year ahead.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-William c. Lin
coin, ex-memher of the Board of Trade,
who is a juror III the special assessment
suit for building a large sewer to cost
nearly $1,000, 900, was charged in open
court this morning with attempting to
secure bribes from both property ty-owners
and the city. The matter has caused a
sensation.
Attorney Walker stated to the court
that he had reliable information that
some Of the sewer contractors who had
the promise of a contract had succeeded
in getting four men on the jury.
Attorney Kellogg said that in riding
down an elevator with Juror Edward
Wood the latter said, ''You attorneys are
getting big money out of this case and
we jurors are only getting s. per day"
The court ordered the members of the
jury before him, one by one.
In the investigation that ensued 7. II.
Andrews, juror, admitted that he tried
to raise money and said Juror Van Allen
had also. Van Allen denied the truth of
the statement.
Lincoln was sentenced to one years
imprisonment in the County Jail for con-
tempt of court. The jurors contempt
lay III the fact that he made no less than
half a dozen attempts to obtain a bribe
from attorneys on both sides of the case.
The court also discharged the remainder
OF the jury from further duty. Lincoln
admitted having tried to borrow money,
but said he had not a suspicion of doing
anything wrong,

ing inanc!ers and economists for their
views on the conference and the general
question Of bi and mouometallism..
George de 1olinari, the well-known
free trader and editor of the Joulnat des
Ecan0miStes, said: "The monetary pro-
blem as it now stands-that is 10 saw, in
the form Of debate between bimetalllsts
ana monometallists-does not seem to be
sOlNable, Tor, in excluding silver from
circulation there would be the danger Of
raising the monetary standard, which
would be unfortunate FOR debtors, and
particularly for all States in debt. ON
the other hand, by adopting bimetallism
there would be the risk OF a fail, which
would have the effect Of bankruptcy in
the case of all creditors of State or private
individuals, without speaking Of other
evils which would be OccasiOued by a rise
or fall. l cannot tell what may be the de-
cIsiOn OF the Brussels conference; but
whatever it may be, | am persuaded the
status quo viii be continued, for the
status quo, in spite OF the heinconveniences,
Is practical and preferable to either Of the
proposed solutions"
Cianageran, Lie Senator and Minister Of
Finance, said: II am inclined to think
free silver has few partisans in France.
oar free traders for the most part are
nOnOmetaillsts, while our prOtectiOniStS
are naturally OF the opinion that they
ought to protect France against an inya-
sion OF American silver, just as the
United States, by an almost prohibItive
tarlu, protects itself against the introduce
ton OF French industrial products"
Senator Buffet, eX-Minister Of Finance,
said: Il am, for the present at least, in
favor Of maintaining in France the none
tary status quo. and l am absolutely Op-
posed to the free silver idea"

P1TTsBURG, Nov. 23.-The Senatorial
Pinkerton Investigation Committee be-
gan its session here this afternoon. Chief
Martin Of the Carnegie Labor Bureau
thought the effect of the employment of
an armed force of detectives bad, as the
workingmen violently opposed them.
II. c. Frick thought his company had n
right to employ armed men to protect
property. He said the firm was now
treating with the men as individuals, but
had no prejudice against them if they be-
longed to the union. He denied that the
firm had a black list and said they en-
ployed over 200J0 men, about - per cent.
Of whom were native Americans. Speak
ing Of the effect Of the strike, Frick said
the men probably lost about 81 100000 in
wages. The FIRMS loss he could not es-
innate They forfeited good many con-
tracts, but in no case were held for dam
ages.
II. d. Gamble Of the United States Cir
