EXTENSIVE PENSION FRAUDS.
What Are Believed to BE Such Are Now
Being Investigated.

7" uot Aro DeIleveu 10 DC Sucn ARC NOW
Being Investigated.
The pension bureau is now engaged in inves-
tigating what appears to be an extensive sys-
tenn Of pension frauds in New Mexico. As
stated in The STAR some time ago, the bureau
has had reason 10 suspect the existence Of
crooked dealing in that territory, and instituted
examination of pension affairs there.
An examining board consisting OF three med
ical examiners and seven special examiners,
was sent to New Mexico and about
the first result Of preliminary
investigation was the arrest of PEN
sion attorney at Socorro named Marcelino,
charged with forgery Of evidence. He pleaded
guilty, was tried at once, and has been SEN
fenced TO seven years imprisonment in the
penitentiary.
II is not known yet how extensive Marcelino's
fraudulent operations were. but about 200 cases
of his are under examination Some of these
will doubtless prove to be all right but they
are all being closely looked into
1t is said that about 1000 pension cases in
the territory are being investigated by the
board now on the ground. No report has yet
been received from the board and the bureau is
unable at present to estimate the extent Of the
frauds which have been perpetrated.

GRESHAM IN '96.

Gen. Terrence of Chicago Believes That the
Democrats Will Nominate Him.
NEW YORK, July 19.-Gen. Joseph I. Tor
renee Of Chicago. personal friend of Secre-
tary Gresham, said yesterday at the Holland
House that. although a republican. he had voted
for Grover Cleveland last fall
But" he said. IL shall vote for Walter O.
Gresham for President in 1896. 1t is nv judg-
ment he will be nominated by the democrats
then Do you suppose he would have
resigned life judgeship simply to be
Secretary OF State? Well, guess
not. 1t is generally understood among his
friends, and l am one of them. that he is to be
the party candidate three years hence. 1 do
not believe MIR. Cleveland will be candi-
date for third term. 1 tell you
that if Gresham is nominated he will
sweep the country like whrlwind. 1t will
need no campaign to elect him. The people
will be for him regardless Of party. They have
confidence in his integrity and admire him for
his true statesmanship. The next President of
the United States will be Walter Q. Gresham of
Illinois"

8. The present is a bad time for erpensice
