To investigate the Pension Rolls.

Acting Commissioner Murphy, of
the pension bureau, has issued an
order to special examiners in the
field, while engaged in their regular
work Of inquiring into the justice of
the claims now before the bureau, to
make careful and judicious inquiry
in their respective districts as to the
existence of pensioners who have been
placed OH the pension rolls through
fraud and deceit. COMMISSIONS CT
Murphy expresses THE decided opin-
ion that among the 95S, 600 pensioners
on the rolls Of the bureau there are
many fraudulent cases, and he cites
the fact that the numerous com
plants received by the pension
bureau have fortified him in his be-
lief. He therefore directs the eXami-
ners to make it part of their duty
to ascertain and set forth the cir
cumstanceS connected with any fraud
ulent pension, improper allowance or
excessive rate and TO report the names
and postoflice addresses of persons
cognizant of the fact" In making
these inquiries he directs the exercise
of extreme caution and wise discrimi-
nation, as there is no desire TO disturb
any just allowance of pensions. He
suggests that postmasters in the ru-
raj districts may be relied on to fur
nish information and that in the
larger towns and cities information
may be sought from the real veter-
ans, Of the war; In the smaller
towns the bureau will issue a circu-
lar requesting, in justice to the gov
eminent aud TO deserving veterans,
such information by the postmasters
that they may POSSESS.

Office Seekers Must Halt.

President Cleveland on Monday
last issued the following card:
EXECUTIVE MANSION, May S, 1898.
1t has become apparent after two
months experience that the rules
heretofore promulgated regulating
interviews with the President have
wholly failed in their operation.
The time which under those rules
was set apart for the reception Of
Senators and Representatives has
been almost entirely spent in listen
ing to applications for Office, which
have been bewidering in volume,
perplexing and eNhausting in their
iteration and impossible OF remcm-
brance.
"A due regard for public duty,
which must be neglected II present
conditions continue, aud an oOSer
vance of the limitations placed upon
human endurance, oblige me TO de
cline from and after this date all per
sonal interviews with those seeking
Appointments to Office, except as /,
on my own motion, may especially
invite them. The same cousidera-
lions make it impossible for me TO re
ceive those who merely desire to pay
their respects except on the days and
during the hours especially designated
for that purpose.
Il earnestly request Senators and
Representatives to aid ne in securing
for them uninterrupted interviews
by declining to introduce their con
otituents and friends when visiting
the Executive Mansion during the
hours designated for their reception.
Applicants for Office will only preju-
dice their prospects by repeated i'm
portunity and by remaining at Wash
ington TO await res ults.'

Poisoned Her Children.

Mrs. Fanny Korn, of New York, the
other day, gave poison to her two
children-Edwin, twelve years old,
and Florence, six years old-then
shot them, and afterward shot her
self. Mrs. Korn is thirty-two years
old, and the wife of Earnest korn, a
dealer in tea and coffee. The two
children were by her first husband,
Mr.. Wehring, who died three years
ago. For sometime Mrs. Korn has
been suffering from u nervous trou-
BILE, which her physician SAID was in
durable. She has been very deSpond-
ent, and has often said: Il had bet
ter kill myself, but when | die shall
take my children with me- While
her children were at lunch she gave
them mixture made from the heads
of matches and flour paste. She went
into an adjoining room, and, getting
a revolver, fired at Edwin. The ball
struck him in the left leg, and he ran
screaming from the house. She then
shot Florence in the side, just below
the heart, and taking the wounded
girl in her arms, sat down on a chair
and shot herself twice in the left side.
A policeman heard the wounded boys
cries and sent out hurried call for
an ambulance. Mrs. korn and the
two children were removed to the
Roosevelt Hospital. Florence died.
The mother and her son will proba-
bly, recover.

capital stock is hundred and twenty
millions dollars and an issue OF ten

several lumbermen, and many OF the
tanning companies which have gone
into the concern own timber and bark

Where They Think We Fail.

The difference between the Ameri-

ships, according to the talk of British
officers of the Blake, but in the train

American naval officer, say the
British, has too much "book-larnin' &c
