HAS BEEN MISREPRE RESENTED
SECRETARY HOKE SMITHS POSI-
TION CONCERNING PENSIONS.
Refers to Gases I'm which He Points
Out the Facts to Maintain His POSI-
tion-His Reference to Commissioner
LOchren's Recent Pension Order.

WASHINGTON. d. C, Sept 23.-Sec-
rotary Hoke Smith has made a state
ment regarding his position upon the
pension question. He says that he has
often been grossly misrepresented in this
matter. and held responsible for acts
about which he knew nothing until they
had been committed.
The secretary takes as his text the de-
cision rendered in the pension case Of
Charles T. Bennett, a private in company
F. Thirteenth Indiana volunteers, which
was the basis upon which an important
order was issued. and about which so
much has been said. Mr.. Smith also
says that it is wrong to suppose he is a
common enemy to pensions. He actually
and cOnscientiously believes that there
have crept upon the pension rolls,
through one avenue or another, by varf-
GUS rulings of pension commissioners
and the work of examiners and other
officers of the pension bureau, an enor-
nous number Of persons who were not
entitled to pensions.
These are the ones I am after" de-
clared the secretary. And they are the
ones we intend to weed out of the pen
sion list if they reduce the total number
Of pensioners one-half.''
Referring to the order of Commissioner
Lochren, directing that all pensioners
whose claims were not good upon the
presentation made, should be dropped
from the rolls for a period of sixty days,
when they must make their claims good
or suffer permanent suspension. Secre-
tary Smith says that this action was
taken when he was absent from Wash
ington and that ii did not meet his ap
prevail He believed that whether there
was authority or not, a pensioner after
being once placed upon the rolls should
have notice before being dropped. MIR.
Smith states that his original idea in
having the list of suspects" prepared
was to have stricken from the rolls those
who had failed to present priIna faCie
evidence that they were entitled to PEN
sions. He believes that investigation
into all of these cases would lead to the
discovery of much fraud and that fully
half of those who have not made prima
facie cases will fail in their efforts to
show that they were entitled to pen
sions. Many Of those who, being notified
that they must furnish new evidence.
had so little TO stand upon that they
would make no effort whatever.
The secretary says it is a great mis-
take to suppose that he intends to de-
crease pension expenditures by depriving
those who were entitled 10 pensions
under the law of their just rewards. He
says that he is not opposed to pensions
Referring to the fact that quite a num-
her of pensioners who were dropped from
the rolls were being reinstated, the
secretary says that all Of them had fur
nished the required evidence and had
filled in the links breaking the chain TO
their cases.

ton, peremptory, to create what seemed
to be aimed at by the resolution of the
senator from Connecticut NIr. Platt)
Cloture, declared Mr.. Turpie, would
not diminish the real power of the
minority. Members Of the senate, sub
jected to force and duress, come back
no longer in the minority, but in the
majority; A vote by force was not a
vote; vote by compulsion was not a
free act. and yet the first definition of
a vote was volition, the expression of
will. The very highest functions in a
free government were not compulsory,
and could not be made SO.
In the present condition there was no
reason for the adoption of the cloture
or for the invocation of what may be
called constitutional obstruction. This
was not the last congress, and the people
had ample remedy for the error of
majority. if such should be the case
There was no condition which justified
extremes upon either side. The proper
procedure was the adoption of a middle
ground upon which the majority and
minority could meet. That would be ac-
complished and would be found COM
petent of accomplishment with a great
deal more ease than the esta blishment of
cloture.
Mr.. Villas, referring to a statement of
Mr.. Turpie that the only rule in the
constitution governing the senate was
that providing that on the demand of
one-fifth the roll should be called said
there was another rule in the constitu-
ton applicable TO the two houses that
either house might, with the concurrence
of two-thirds, expel member. He asked
whether Mr.. Turpie did not regard those
two provisions as somewhat antagonistic
and contradictory.
Mr.. Turpie did not regard the two pro-
visions at conflict with each other.
Mr. Dubois Of Idaho Nopposed any
change of the rules in the midst Of an
exciting debate.
Mr. Call of Florida regarded cloture as
a proposition TO forbid debate, and op-
posed It,
On motion of MIR. Voorhees, the senate
at 1:15 o'clock went into executive ses-
sion and at 4 o'clock adjourned until
Monday.

MR.. HARTER AND TARIFF.
Although N Manufacturer He FavOrs
Only Revenue Taxation.

Representative Harter OF Ohio, who
was prevented from appearing before
the ways and means committee TO argue
In favor Of placing agricultural imple-
ments and flour the free list, has
submitted a brief TO the committee
covering the statement which he in
tended TO make. Mr.. Harter is himself
a manufacturer Of agricultural imple-
ments. The present duty on agricultural
implements, he says. is As per cent.
while the labor cost is only 20 per cent,
and the wages paid for labor in the
countries which compete are about 20
per cent. Of those paid here. On this
showing a revenue duty of 10 per cent.
would protect the American manu-
facturer. Mr.. Harter declares, however.
that no protection ought to be given as
agricultural implements are produced in
the United States cheaper than in foreign
countries and the American goods con-
troll the trade. He says that a small
tariff duty ought to be continued per
haps, looking not to protection, but TO
revenue.
With regard TO wheat -four, the duty
at present is % per cent. Wages do not
constitute more than per cent. of this
cost. a duty of . per cent. tariff in
stead Of the present rate of % per cent.
would be ample. AS a manufacturer of
agricultural implements for twenty-five
years and of -four for nearly twenty
years Mr.. Harter therefore asks that
both -four and agricultural implements
be placed on the free list.

THE FIGHT IN THE SENATE.
Some Decisive Action Expected to BE
Taken This Week.
BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL,
WASHINTON. d. c. Sent %.

BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL,
WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 90
There appeared to be a general expec-
tation when the senate met this morn
ing that something was going to happen
and developments were awaited with
interest. The proceedings. however, be-
gan without incident and there was
some disappointment on the part of
spectators. This grew out Of a lack of
knowledge on the part of the public as
to the method of procedure. The sug-
gestion made by Mr. voorhees, yester-
day that he hoped to get the support of
a majority of the senate to proIong the
sessions Of the senate did not imply any
fight this morning over a motion for
longer sessions. for the reason that no
motion to that purpose is necessary.
The only thing necessary to prolong
the sessions is TO hold a quorum and to
vote down motions to adjourn. There
fore there was nothing al the beginning
Of the days work to Indicate that the
fight for a vote was on. Mr.. George be-
gan his peech at an early hour in the
day, and things were as they have
been for many days past, as far as
outward appearances we're to be taken
for it.
The fight is on. however, and it is ex-
pected that this week will develop
whether or not the Voorhees, bill can
ever be passed without an amendment.
1t was expected by the repeal men that
they would be able to secure a longer
session than usual today and they sue
ceeded, but they did not start out with
the purpose of having a continuous
session. The idea was to sit until s
or o'clock today and then tomorrow
to have a still longer session, and the
next day longer, and finally to run into
a continuous session.
If the DILL can be passed Il is expected
that this will be demonstrated by Sat
urday, and II no progress toward
vote is made by that time, II is said
that IL will be regarded as evident that
nothing can be done, except through
compromise, and the expectation is that

BUREAU OF THE SENTINEL,


The action of Senator voorhees, in
practically conceding another week for
debate on the silver repeal bill is critl-
cised by some of the republicans on the
ground that he ought to push matters
more rapidly to a conclusion. Demo-
cratic senators who favor repeal declare,
however. that he is adopting just the
right course to deprive the filibusterers
from the mining states of the sympathy
of the country and of their associates in
both parties. Senator Voorhees, does not
intend to permit hlibustering If he can
avoid it when it is openly adopted to de-
feat the repeal bill, but in order to bring
it quickly TO an end he intends to keep
his hands clean Of the charge of unduly
forcing matters and Of depriving senators
of reasonable freedom of debate.
BY this course he is likely to get the
support of every senator who respects
the traditions of the senate for vote
after reasonable debate is exhausted, and
it is the only way in which he could get
their support and reduce the filibuster-
ers to an impotent half-dozen.
Nobody seems to believe that any
thing practical will be done with Sena-
tor Platt's cloture amendment The old
er senators do not like the idea of for
mally putting such thing into the
rules. however they may be willing to
act in given emergencies. Whether the
republicans as body would now vote
for cloture in the senat tie is in some doubt.
The mass of them had been brought up
to the point by considerable coaXing
when the force bill was under consid-
Grafton. but even at that time Senator
Edmurds of Vermont and several others
showed signs of revolt which caused the
leaders great uneasiness. The silver sena-
tors were opposed to cloture and are
likely to oppose il now The mass of the
democratic senators from the South who
remember how valuable the freedom of
debate was to them in that crisis are
also opposed to cloture without much re-
gard 10 their position on silver repeal.
II the republican senator's intend to
fight the repeal Of the election laws to
the death they would oppose cloture at
this time.
To Arraign the President.
The president of the United States will
be arraigned in the United States senate
next Monday for violating the spirit of
the constitution in endeavorlng to de-
stroy the independence of the law-mak-
ing branch Of the government by seek

in that event there will be either a COM
promise adopted or the whole matter
will be side-tracked-
According to the count Of the repeal
men, the silver men have about eigh-
teen senators who will filibuster as long
as necessary to defeat unconditional
repeal Operating under the time-hon-
ored practice Of the senate, this is
very strong force for a filibuster. A
number of the repeal men feel that
there is very slim chance Of getting
a vote by frightening the sessions but
to make the effort is the only way to
test il. II ii is shown beyond question
that a vote for unconditional repeal can
not be had, some of the repeal men
will be willing to try compromise, but
the most determined among them say
that they will not talk compromise I'M
til they have made the effort to get
vote without it and have failed. 1t
looks as If they might expect to find
themselves in about the same situation
at the close Of the session on Saturday
as they are in today.

A SHOCK TO ST. PAUL.
BY the News OF j. n. BurweIrS Crook
ed Financial Transactions.

ST. PAUL, Sept. Robustness and So
cial circles were shocked last evening
upon learning that Jules H Burwell.
vice-president, treasurer and general
manager of the Mast, Buford & Burwell
carriage company, was charged with the
misappropriation of $4,000 OF the funds
of the firm. The statement was at first
received with incredulity. but inquiry at
the office of the clerk of the district
court set all doubt at rest, as a COM
plant had already been filed there by
the company formally charging Burwell
with illegally taking $4,000. The firm
was forced into assignment on Monday
by the financial methods of Mr.. Burwell,
Victor Robinson being selected as as
signee. The complaint charges that
Burweil has been member of the firm
for eight years at a salary of 10000 a
year, and as treasurer has at all times
had access to the funds of the firm. 1t
states that Burwell. instead of taking
the $4,000 which was his rightful due
annually, appropriated to his own use
sums far in excess of the amount stipu-
lated OF the amount wrongfully taken
$4,000 Is charged to have been taken IN
money and the remainder in carriages
and other merchandise. Among the
items given Is one Of $1,000 which Gen
eral Manager Burwell is alleged to have
taken for the purpose of erecting a fine
residence at 103 Summit-ave. The firm
of Mast, Buford & Burwell therefore
asks judgment against Jules II. Burwen
for the sum of $4,000 The leading
CAPITALIST of the firm is P. p. Mast Of
Springfield, o. Mr.. Buford is a resi-
dent of Moline, III. Jules II. Burwel
has been considered one of the leading
citizens of Minnesota. Last year he was
president of the state agricultural So
ciety and last June he was the central
figure in carrying out the program or
the Hill celebration. He is a prominent
free mason and has long been known as
one of the foremost "hustlers" of St.
Paul.

The accident occurred in the Lance No.
II. colliery of the Lehigh & wiIkesbarre
coal company at Plymouth, two miles
from this city. at 2:O5 this afternoon and
was one of the most peculiar ever known
in the anthracite regions. Two masons
Flanagan and Jones, were building a
high stone wall at one end of the one
thousand-foot gangway in order TO re-
verse the air current. d. w. Jones and
William Jones, two rock contractors,
were experimenting the timbering of an
air shaft sixty feet deep. which was be-

Assistant Mine Foreman Lightly descend
ed the main shaft to inspect the works.
He had a naked lamp in his cap and
passed along the gangway and down an
inner slope on his way to the MAN, or
cooper gangway. He had not entered
this more than twenty yards when his
naked lamp ignited the gas and a ter
rife explosion occurred. The force of the
explosion swept everything before it and
was so great that the rush of air pass
ing along the gangway tore down the
high walls the masons were building.
crushing Flanagan and Owen Jones TO
death.
At the same time the workmen in the
shaft were struck down by a mass of
rock and timbers. shaken from the sides
by the force of the blast. d. NJ Jones
and William Jones were both instantly
killed and many of the rock men and
laborers at work with them sustained
more or less severe injuries. Foreman
Lighly's body was hurled from side to
side of the passage and burned and
charred beyond recognition. The con-
cussion was felt through the entire
mine and a rescuing party, which was
quickly organized, entered the workings.
The effects of the explosion were every
where apparent, rocks were torn up,
ties twisted and cars shattered to
kindling wood. The unfortunates were
found under the debris and were taken
at once TO the surface, where the in
jured were cared for. Lightly mas been
