CHIEF WOLF IN CONGRESS-,
He Is Jnsui;ed by Member, but Mr.
Wilson Comes to the Rescue.

WASHINGTON CITY, jan. 25.-[SpeciaL Rep
resentatlye Wilson evidently does not propose
to quietly submit 10 any attempt of his COL
leagues to poke fun st any o! his constituents
even though they are Indians Today Chief
Wolf, o! the Paouse tribe was the most con-
splcuous parsonage present in the house OF rep
resentatlves, Alter the chief had occupied the
speakers chair previously TO the cali To order
and had attracted any amount OF attention, he
was given q front seat III the members gallery
by Representative Wilson. The chief watched
the antics of the members on the foor al! day
with apparent interest. He was be licked with
red blankets and scarlet ribbons His face was
painted deeper RED than his wearing apparel
During heated debate in the forenoon Repre-
sentative Taylor, OF Ohio, who was verbally
chastising certain GiibusteriuC members
turne! square about AMI facing Chief Wolf sar-
casticaily remarked; This uneducated red
man could give some of the men on the floor
lessons in good behavior" Wilson bobbed up
like flash, interrnp,lng Taylor. He gave no
ttce that 40 man could point the finger OF scorn
a. his constituent. Il want TO give notice that
] won't submit 10 IT," shouted the little WASH
ington representative. Wilson raised 3 laugh
and sat down apparently satisfied.

on July /, 1891. was s132,1i3,42e, aed on Deem
Der 81, 1892. s129, 0e2,5sS. The istal estimated
revenues for the fiscal year eniin< June so. 1893,
are sos gu $50. and the total estiisated expend
lures are s464.67i $50, leaving estimated sur
plus of receipts over expenditures for
the current fiscal year Of exactly
100000. The estimated cash balance
available on June 30. 1898, is placed at
$l2o, 992, ST, which includes the $loo, o0o, coo
gold reserve fund. For the next fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1894. the secretary estimates that
revenues from ali sources will De s491, ~, $50,
and that the estimated expenses which, how
ever, do not appear to INCLUDE miscellaneous
and extraordinary expenditures, will be $751;.
60. 335, estimated surplus OF So, $780, $50. To
this the secretary adds SO 9a2 81 IS q cash bal
ance above the gold reserve estimated available
on June 80, 1893, making an eStiIaated bslsnce
on June so, 1894, OF $50. $50 407, fror which must
be deducted $500 900 Tor the re1eIa ption of past
due bonds, fractional currency arei bank notes,
and 81 ,00o, eco for payments on m9il subsidiary
contracts, leaving balance of s47,s52 407. 1t Is
estimated that ss0,0o0,O00 in coiE.racts will be
payable in 1891, which would bang the real
working balance down to 1882 401 The expen-
ditures on account OF pensions, estimated in
this statement for the next fiscal year, amount
to s166, S3l $50, or an increase oves the amount
which it is estimated will b. spent Tor
pensions this fiscal year OF only s.. $3.50 The
secre,ary's statement for 1894 shows s40. 1909
contract liabilities to be deducted from si7,s52,-
407 of the balance above the gols reserve esti-
mated as available cash, but does not show
clearly whether So 259. S5S OF the esntracts to be
paid in 1928 has or has not been desueted. Very
little is allowed to the sinking fund in these
estimates. and a supplemental statement places
the estimated balance due the funif on June 80,
1894, at $95, sol 6S7. The SIS 900 contract liza
bilities are included in estimates t:is year. and
therefore does not come out OF tae estimated
cash balance at the end of this fiscal year.

amendment provides for the appointment OF
commission to consider necessary notifications
in the pension laws and report at the next con-
gress. The bill. as framed by the majority of
the subcommittee. also does away with pension
agencies throughout the country, and provides
for payment of pensions by checks directly
from the treasury department; abolishes examt-
nation OF applicants by surgeons, and provides
for the appointment of $50 special examiners TO
hereafter make examinations.
The amendments were adopted by a vote OF
three to two, the Democratic mem bers Mutchler.
ONein and Livingston, voting yea, and Grout
and Bingham nay. The fight against the amend
ments will be carried by the Republican member
to the full committee on appropriations, which
has yet to act upon the bill. 1t is said 70 be
likely that some OF the Democratic members OF
the full committee will vote against their asso-
'iates on the suo-cOmInitlee. III Tic aihenu-
Inents get out of committee lively hght in the
house is certain.
Hill of Massachusetts,, speaking for the major
lty OF the members On the reasons for making
the proposed changes, said: 'There is no dis
position the part of the majority OF this house
to take pension away from q man who deserves
it, Or from any man who became disabled while
in the United States army. The country wants
the pension list reduced, but it does not want
single worthy pensioner stricken from the rolls.
1t seems to the committee that certain persons
are entitled to pensions, but they should stop
there"
Grout of Vermont, one of the two Republican
members of the subcommittee. said the Repub-
lican minority were against the amendments,
and will oppose them In full committee and in
the house
