After brief debate, the national
bank circulation bill went over without
action.
A resolution was offered by Senator
PETER, and went over until to-day, calling
on the secretary of the treasury for a
report as to whether national banks in
Boston, New York, and Philadelphia were
being conducted in violation of law;
whether they were paying depositors'
checks promptly in lawful money, and

Secretary HOke Smith Begins uig Work Of
Cutting Down tho Pensions.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-Probably the
most important pension decision ever
sent from the Office OF the secretary Of
tho interior to the commissioner OF pen.
sious was filed yesterday, 1t is believed
by those high in authority in the pen.
sion bureau that 1t will reduce the pay
ment OF pensions under the act OF June
2S, 1880, between Sl5,0OO,00O and S20,-
00J0O0, 1t involves the repeal oil an
order passed by General Raum and APP
proved by Assistant Secretary Bussey,
and a return TO the language OF the
statute requiring the disability, not OF
service origin, TO DO such as to prevent
the applicant from earning a support
by manual labor,
The decision in the case OF one Ben
nett, who sought pension under the
old law, alleging that while in the SER
vice at Raleigh, N, O., he was pros
traled by sunstroke, which resulted in
partial deafness in both ears, This APP
pliCation was denied on the ground that
while the applicant has slight deafness,
as alleged, it was not OF sufficient sever
ity to warrant any rating, The testi-
mony showed that Bennett could hear
a watch tick at the distance OF hall an
inch from either eRr
Bennett subsequently applied for and
received a pension Of Sl2 u month under
the act OF June27 1890. This act allows
pension ranging from 50 to So u
month to eX-soldiers or sailors suffering
from any disability OF permanent
character not the result OF their own
vicious habits, which incapacitates
them from the performance OF manual
labor in such a degree us to render
them unable to earn support.
The inability to earn support is
therefore made the basis OF the law,
During Commissioner Raum's admin
istration an order was issued, known as
order No. 1914, which directed that all
claims Tor pension under the act OF
June 81, 1890, should be- rated the same
as like disabilities OF service origin, and
that all cases showing pensionable
disability which, II oil service origin,
would be rated at or above SD month,
should be rated at Sl2 month. 1t is
this order which Secretary Smith has
reversed.
The only requirement to obtain a
pension under the law applicable to
pensions OF service origin Is disability
byreason OF wounds received or disease
contracted while in the service and in
line Of duty,
The decision Is signed by John NJ,
Reynolds, assistant secretary oil the
interior. Secretary Smith, in com.
munication to the commissioner of
pensions, says it is hardly necessary to
present argument or to support by
authority, the proposition that neither
the secretary nor the commissioner
can, by order or practice, supersede an
act OF congress, and he therefore
directs hereafter the practice OF the
Office conform to tho law,

CLEVELAND, May 29.--In response to a

per, Governor Foster answered as fol-
lows:
"Thanks for your offer of space. My
present mental distress precludes nc
ceptance of your kind offer to any OK
tent. My failure simply illustrates tho
grdat folly of permitting oneself to be in
debt beyond tho reach OF reasonably
quick assets for relief when tho hour Of

pile are in such condition, and the sta
