PETER CLAASEN's PARDON.
President Clevelnnd's IndOrsement In
Granting Clemency.

Peter J. Claasen. convicted in New York
of embezzling and misapplying the
funds of the Sixth National Bank Of New
York and sentenced March, 1891, to six years
Imprisonment in the Erie county peniten-
tiary. New York, was pardoned by the
President yesterday.
The reason for the Presidents action is
explained in the following Endorsement Of
the application for pardon:
"Granted-The reports have received con-
cerning the physical condition of this CON
vict, in my opinion, fully justify his pardon.
Besides the fact that those engaged with
him in the transactions resulting in his in
generation have been released lends some
assurance that justice will not be violated
by the pardon of the remaining participant
whose guilt is certainly not greater than
that of his associates. i confess that in ad-
dition to other considerations. 1 cannot miss
the fact that the granting Of pardon in
this case will bring comfort to wife and
daughter. whose love and devotion have
never tagged and whose affection for a hus-
band and father remain unshaken."
President Harrison repeatedly refused to
pardon Claasen.

ONLY OFFICIAL NEWS
To he Issued Hereafter From the Pen
sion Bureau.

~ Do ADoueQ ncECUIteH rom xnO rem.
sion Bureau.
BY q verbal order issued to the chiefs of
division In the pension bureau it il believed
by the officials that the character OF the
news concerning that branch OF the govern
ment will be improved. A conference was
held yesterday between Commissioner
Lochren and his chiefs. at which It was
agreed that hereafter no Information for
public print shall be given out excepting
through the commissioner or his deputies.
When news hunter desires to follow up
certain trail he u to apply directly to the
commissioner.
If the subject be deemed sufficiently
know what Is wanted to be known, shall
be sent for, and the conversation contain
ing the matter which 1t is desired to print
office. That otiicial win then know what
Is given out for publication. This is the
theory on which the order is founded.
All the chiefs With whom tha reporter
for The Star talked this afternoon stated
that nothing SO far had been sajd to the
employees about the order. bur intimated
that the anti-news elict would gradually
become noised Arouad and that the en-
ployes would be expected to take the hint.
One chief of division told the reporter that
let loose information which should have
been nursed by the bureau. A great many
things had gotten INTO print which ought
was designed to improve the news service,
give all the news sent out an official stamp,
as it We're and suppress the loQuacity OF
some subcrdinates.
Another chief told the reporter that the
commissioner had been particularly an
noyed by stories which purported to be
spondents had sent out sensationalities
which were all fake. He thought that the
present order would be pow weriess to effect
a cure. but would rather tend to Increase
the evil complained OF. No rule could pro-
tect the department from alleged news
paper men who depended more on imagi-
nation than on hustle for stuff He did
not think that In all ways the order was
q wise one. but as it was an order 1t would
be obeyed. He thought, however that the
Questionable matter would continue to 20
forth.
Another official high in the confidence Of
the commissioner said that there was not
the slightest intention to suppress news
No such policy had been contemplated It
would be unfair to the public and decidedly
un-American. The department would be
perfectly frank and Straightforward with
the press. What the department objected
to was to publication Of Inaccurate news
given out from other than Official sources
The order was simply designed to insure
the accuracy Of pension news.

At present there is not q great in,,,cs-

Senator Harris, the chairman. that he

committee formerly held their sessions
A star reporter this morning talked with
several members Of the committee with
reference to any local measures that they
mad contemplated introducing. but none OF
them had as yet given this matter their at
ten1on. Senator Mcmillan, the former
chairman OF the committee, has lost none
OF the interest that he mas always taken IN
District affairs. and some time later when
he thinks that there will be some chance
introduce. Will present a number Of the
measures OF importance that were left un-
acted on by the last Congress.
For the present. however, he will not act
as he says that as far as he can discern
the democrats seem to be disiuclined to
allow any business to be transacted
He still takes the view Of the trolley oues-
t1on that he always has and expressed the
opinion that the trolley should not be al
lowed within the city limits Though in
some cities he favors the trolley as a means
of locomotion he does not think thar this
city should have this system.

WASHINGTON. c. THURSDAY
SENATE FINANCECO COMMITTEES
Tho Silver Question Not Discussed at
Today's Meeting.
Republican Dissatisfaction 1t the Line oi
Action-Possibiiity Of Favorable
National Bank Legislation,

The democrats in the Senate do not pro-
pose being forced by the republicans Into
hasty action upon the silver question. and
have resolved that no forward step shall
be taken until they have agreed amopg e
themselves upon plan Of action that
shall secure the support Of the united party.
So. when the finance committee came to-
gether this morning for the first time this
session, Chairman Voorhees,, who had is-
sued the call. announced that the majority
wished time to discuss and agree upon q
line of action. and therefore desired that
the silver question should not be brought
meeting he hoped that the subject would be
In order.
Republican Dissatisfactton.
The republican members of the COM
mittee. save Senator Jones Of Nevada, who
stayed in the room only q few moments
after learning of his mothers death. ex-
pressed their dissatisfaction at this pro-
gram, and announced that they were ready
at once to proceed to discussion and action,
as the President had called attention 10
the need Of special legislation. But as they
realized that a simple expression of the
wish Of the majority was equivalent to a
formal motion which would undoubtedly
to Mr.. voorhees, suggestion, and the silver
question was relegated to next week, so
far as the finance committee is concerned.
National Bank Circulation.
Ah OAoCH tHdt Tie tiInc might not be
altogether wasted. however. the committee
took up and discussed the proposition to
allow the national banks to issue circula-
ton to the full face value Of the bonds
deposited In the treasury. Instead OF limit
Ing 1t to 80 per cent OF the value of the
bonds as at present. 1t IVES urged that the
result of this legislation would be more
Immediately beneficial than any other that
had been suggested. as 1t would add a large
sum to the money In circulation as quickly
as the notes could be printed.
Possibility of Favorable Legislation.
1t was made clear that for the first time
in many years there is a possibility Of
legislation favorable to national banks in
the line indicated. for although no vote
was taken the discussion appeared to In
dicate a leaning toward the measure by
majority Of the committee. The present
danger. however. lies in an attempt to
cumber the bill with amendments that
will involve the whole silver question and
prevent q disposition Of the measure ON ita
own merits

THE ITALIAN MISSION.
A Nice Point Which the President
Will Have to Decide.

In the case Of our minister to Italy the
President has nice point before him for
decision. Mr.. William Potter Of Pennsyl-
vania, the present representative Of the
United States In Rome. was appointed by
President Harrison last November in place
of Gov. Porter OF Indiana, who resigned to
take part in the campaign. The Italian gov-
ernment has since raised its legation in the
United States to the rank of an embassy
and has recommissioned Baron Fava as an
ambassador. MIR. Potter meantime mains
minister and envoy simply. International
courtesy requires that the United States
should reciprocate by sending an ambassa-
dor to Italy. The point Mr.. Cleveland Eas
to determine is whether he will send in Mr..
Potter's name to the Senate as ambassador
and thus in a manner reappoint one of MIR.
Harrison's selections, or whether he will re-
move Mr.. Potter earlier perhaps than he in
tended by sending in another persons name
with the rank Of ambassador attached

The Secretary of the Navy today issued
advertisements inviting proposals for the
construction Of three gunboats under an
thority Of the last Congress The delay in
calling for bids was due to the decision OF
the Attorney General. which held that the
Secretary had no power to build composite
boats under the act providing for these
ships, designs for which had already been
drawn up by the department. and bids were
about to be asked. The ships are to be Of
1900 tons displacement to have triple ex-
pansion engines and to be capable of about
fifteen knots speed. They will be PRACTICAL
ly Of the same type as the Bennington and
Yorktown, although somewhat smaller and
they are intended for service in Chinese

partment reserves the right to award the

or not his bid is the lowest submitted This
Is done in order to make a more equitable
