The sport began with the opening scram-

Correction in fast time. The second event
was a sweepstakes, for 9-year-olds and up
wards, at mile. Again favorite, Am

grow enthusiastic. Sir Excess, in the ju-
venile stakes, was a hot fsvorite Owing
to bad start second was the best he could
do, Senella a 20 to chance, beating him
by two lengths.
The event of the day, the Metropolitan
handicap, came next on the program.
The Pepper, one Of Marcus Daly's repre-
sentatives in the race. and Pierre Loril-

SAVING LIE PENSIONS.


A Decision which stops a Leak of Mill.
ions Annually.
WASHINGTON, May 20-probably the
most important pension decision ever sent
from the Office of the secretary of the in
terror to the commissioner Of pensions was
filed Saturday.
It is believed by those high in authority
In the pension bureau that il will reduce
the payment of pensions under the act Of
June q, 1890, between els, 600 900 and $50,
100000 1t involves the repeal of an order
passed by General Raum and approved by
Assistant Secretary Bussey and return to
the language Of the statute requiring the
disability, not Of service origin, to be such
as to prevent the applicant from earning
asupport by manual labor.
The secretary bases his decision upon the
case Of Charles r. Bennett. formerly pri.
vate in company F, Thirteenth Indiana
volunteers, who enlisted on Sept. "A, 1864
and was discharged June 2s, 1865 Bennett
hled his original application for an inva-
lids pension in July, 1856, slleging that
while in the service and in line Of duty al
Raleigh, n. c., about June /, 1865. he was
prostrated by sunsrr.l5a,- from which a
dsseesgor ihe mead and loss of hearing re.
snlted. The claim was rejected on Feb Is,
1899, and Bennett appealed from the de
oision
In connection with the case the board Of
examining surgeons declared that the
man was in perfect health, but was
slightly deaf, and rejected the claim. This
rejection is affirmed by the department.
Under the provisions Of the act Of June q.
les0, Bennett filed a second application,
and was granted the maximum rating OF
tl2 a month.
