SLOCUM ON PENSIONS.
The Old Soldier Vigorously Re
plies to a Criticism Of an Ohio
Editor.
Justice to Deserving Veterans De-
mands Wedding Out Of Fraud
ulent Pensions.

New YORK, June 5.-The Brooklyn
Eagle today publishes an open letter
from Gen. William H. Slocum adj
dressed to John L. Rapier, editor of the
Ohio Soldier, Chilllcothe. o.. in reply to
a recent article published in that
journal. The article referred to criti-
ciSed some of Gen. Slocum's recent ref
erenceS to the pension system, and init
mated that the generals utferances
came with bad grace from "a man who
is drawing a service pension of about
$1,000 a year"as retired major general.
Gen. Slocum begins his letter with the
statement that he is not on the retired
list and that he has never drawn dol
lar from the government except for
services rendered. At the close of the
war commission giving him rank in
the regular army was offered him, but
he declined it.
The general declares himself strongly
in favor of paying pensions to the real
soldiers of the War of the Rebellion
who are now disabled or in want, but
emphatically objects to any pay to
bounty jumpers, or men who enlisted
in the closing days of the war, and who
never heard q hostile shot. The general
bounty jumpers, three of whom,h he says,
he ''had the pleasure of seeing shot in
one day." These same men, who risked
death and disgrace during the war to
secure the bounty of the government,
do not hesitate to seek that bounty now,
in time of peace. wnen they are really
risking nothing. The general concludes
his letter as follows:
II trust this scandalous business is
now to cease. | believe that the pen
sion department is now in the hands of
gentleman who, while earnestly en-
deavoring to do justice to all deserving
veterans, will not boast of his ability to
increase the pension roll at the rate Of
more than two names minute. He
has and should have the support and
cooperation of every bonest soldier in
the country. A continuance of the sys-
TEN which has brought the burden upon
our people would inevitably lead to the
adoption OF some remedy which would
result 10 the punishment of brave and
deserving pensioners in common with
the fraud and impostor."

CHIN ROW IN A SYNOD
An Illinoisan Objects to Being
Fired Out Of Church for
Divorcing His Wife.
He Is Attacked by a Minis ter, and
Confusion Reigned Until
Adjournment.

New CASTLE, Pa, June 5.-An inn
portant case in church discipline came
up in the Reformed Presbyterian synod
today. James Reid, of Sparta, H.,
separated from his wife, and the Hi
nois presbytery had decreed that he
could hold his membership in the
church if he would contribute to
her support. but later had thrown
him out. Mr.. Reid gave a detailed
account of the case. in which he
claimed gross injustice had been done
him by the presbytery and elders of
Bethel church. Rev. d. S. Farris de-
Tended the action of the presbytery, and,
as Reid's wife is now in the insane asy-
lum, he claimed that Reid had got him
self in hot water by marrying an i'm
beetle in the first place, and that he
ought not to whine about it now. The
statement brought several members to
their feet. who excitedly called for the
moderator to stop the speakers. Reid
rose and began to attack Rev. Farris
personally. the moderator's calls for
order were not obeyed. and for some
time Rev. Farris was given to under
stand that his course would not be toll
Grated. The session adjourned while
the excited discussion was still going on.

Harmonious Meeting OF the West

CHICAGO. June 5.-The meeting of
the Western Passenger association to-
day was harmonious, and there is every
probability that the association agree
.ment will be adopted. provided the as
soc.ation roads agree to certain stipula-
tons made by the Atchison. When the

was taken on the adoption Of the agree
ment, it being understood that each road

AtchisOn declined to come in unless
certain matters we're provided for. Com
mittees were appointed to discuss these
matters and report at the meeting to-

should come into the association, plan
to stop the payment of commissions. par

Runs on Some, and Some Close

MADISON, Wis, June 5.-There was
small run on the, First National bank
today, but not enough to cause any great
excitement. The banks balance at the
close of business Saturday showed $685.
600 on hand to meet demands, and the
officers of the bank are not at all
alarmed.
PORTLAND. June 5.-Private advices
from Spokane, WASH, state that the
Bank of Spokane. the oldest IN the
county, has suspended. 1t was one of
the smaller banks of Spokane.
MILWAUKEE, June 5.-There was a
slight run on the South Side Savings
bank this morning. 1t was a slight
follower from Saturday. By noon,
however, whatever slight excitement
there was had subsidized. Cashier John
b. Roofing stated that they expected no
trouble; that they were taking advant-
age OF the thirty-days rule, and that the
bank was in perfectly safe condition.
New YORK, June 5.-The Shoe and
Leather National bank gave notice that
it would not clear for the Canal Street
bank after tomorrow. This will make
it necessary for the Canal Street bank
to go into liquidation. Its deposits are
about S45O,O0O.
WASHINGTON. June 5.-Comptroller

Merchants National Bank of Fort

day. The bank was closed on an order
from the directors, and Bank Examiner
Stone was placed in charge.
SANDUSkY, o., June 5.-The doors of
the SaEdusky Savings Bank company,
which closed Saturday night and what
was generally supposed to De one of
the soundest and safest institutions
OF the city. were not opened this
morning, bat displayed the follow
Ing announcement that it had been COM
PEELED to assign. The present trouble
is ascrlbed directly to the heavy, though
gfoundless, run that was made ON the
bank about ten weeks ago, and whichlit
withstood successfully at that time,
paying out upward of 100000 within
two days, when the run ceased as
suddenly as it had begun. The avail
able assets of the bank will aggregate
fully 100000, while the liabilities, at an
outside estimate, are only sos, 900, and
1t was for that reason that all assign
ment was decided upon rather than
receivership.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber ofCornmerce.

Wheat futures were weaker in all
American markets, but quoted steady in
Europe. The cause appeared to be due
to unsettled financial situation and re-
ports of cholera abroad. Prices broke
&c early. Very little outside demand
was reported. The principal buying
was done by shorts. July sold down to
60$lc early in the session. Crop condi-
tions in this country were generally re-
ported as favorable.
India wheat shipments last week were
$1,000 bu.
Cash wheat was very dull and lower.
Buyers were mostly out or the market,
being apparently scared by the break in
futures. Only one prominent miller was
in the market. No. l northern sold

CHICAGO, June 5.-With few con-

diocese of Chicago for seventeen years.

Feehan and the congregation of st.

people and against the archbishop, and
celebrated in the church the first mass
said there for many years. The st.
Trinity congregation requested Arch
bishop Feehan to give them as priest
not member OF the order of resurrec-
ton. He refused because of contract
between Archbishop Foley and the
resurrection order. The st. Trinity
people would not accept the decision
and the archbishop would give them no
other. Today the church waS filed
