TO BURN HOKE IN EFFIGY.
Citizens OF an Ohio Village Much DispIrnse
Over Recent Pension RULING.


PORTSMOUTH. O.. July Messengers from
Rome. in Adams county. arriving at 10 o'clock
tonight reported that large crowd had
gathered to burn Secretary Hoke Smith in
efIlgy. A dummy had been made and big
pile Of straw and old rags collected.
During the day movement started to add
the Presidents effigy to the funeral pyre. but
1t ct with opposition. The intention was f.
nally abandoned. The time set for the burn
ing is midnight Citizens have tried to dis
suade the crowd. but the leaders are deter
mined and declare they will have no interior
ence with their plans.
The indignation was occasioned by the sus-
pension from the pension rolls Of J. L. Reed O
veteran S3 years old. Reed was member OF
the Eleventh Illinois Cavalry. Col. Robert G.
InRersol's old regiment. The old man has no
other means OF support but his pension. and
it's discontinuance for investigation has
weighed SO heavily on his mind that he is now
insane and will have to be taken to an asylum.
The recent rulings Of tho Pension Depart
ment have been received with alarm by the
old soldiers and their friends in this county. 1t
seems peculiarly unfortunate in this county
thnt the ak has fallen In many in stances where
the results were pathetic.
The case Of r. Newman. at Buena Vista, is
much cited. He was without doubt q gallant
soldier. serving through the war with honor.
For years he has been quito infirm. His pen
sion. his only support. has been discontinued.

mand that he vacate the Office and that Presi-
