NATURAL BENEFIT.
Counsellor Charles Corbln argued from
the standpoint that the proposed railroad
would be public benefit as its natural
tendency would bs to encourage manu-
facturers to locate In Jersey City, and.
further, it would enhance the value of
realty. He reviewed the facts published
in THE JERSEY CITY NEWS on L thursday
last. 1t was by this time half past ten
o'clock and the com missiouers retired to
discuss the matter. At midnight Prssi-

One More Inst ince of Disgraceful Har-
risonian Methods.
WASHINGTON. June "a. 1S93.-Mr. !.
Tarsuey's bald-headed pensoner has
been found, according to a story made
public this morning.
In February last Representative Tars-
ney of Missouri delivered speech in the
Hense in which occurred the following G
startling statement:-'I speak not in Jest,
but in sober truth and from the record.
when I declare to this House and to the
country that pensions have been granted
on account of loss of hair-on account OF
balduess Think of the diminishing
effect upon a mans capacity to earn
support by manual labor that must result
from the disability of badness"
A week later, in batch of correspond
ence submitted to the House which
passed between Commissioner of Pensions
Raum and Medical Referee Ingraham of
the Pension Office, the statement of Mr..
Tarsnsy was denied by The Pension
Bureau Representative Grout submitted
this correspondence together with q
letter from Commissioners Raum, in
which the latter stated that he felt con-
fident MIR. Tarsney had been misin-
formed
MIR. Tarsney in reply said ne could no
produce the name of his informant. be-
cause the gentleman who had given him
the information was employed in the
Pension! Office as a medical examiner
ana would suffer dismissal il his name
was published. Dr. Warren Holt of
Missouri, medical examiner of the
Pension Office. it was said later, had
given Mr.. Tarsney the information
that brought forth. Commits
sioner Raum's denial. Dr.. Rolt
was dismissed from the Pension Office on
March last 'sfor cause.t
DR.. Holt was not able to point out any
case OF badness which had been PEN
stoned, but by accident the following re-
markable case was discovered.
Allen G. Peck, of Company II, First
Rhode Island Light Artillery, was allowed
a pension on October 10. 1891. Certificate
No. 670,l75 was issued to him, and the
case was ordered to be dated from March
/, 1884, and the arrearages Of 81 per
month amounted TO about 1894. The rec
ords of the Pension Bureau developed
the fact that no other cause was given as
the reason for the allowance of Mr.
Peck's claim than the ''loss Of hair" re-
suit of typhoid fever.
Efforts. it is said will now be made to
have Mr. R0lt reinafutoQ.
