Pension Attorneys Printed Blanks Do
Not Go Any More.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-An order was
to-day issued by Commissioner Lochren,
of the Pension Bureau, and approved
by Secretary Smith, with a view to pre-
venting fraud In making applications

certain pension attorneys In different
parts Of the country to file applications
for their clients, using printed form, all
of the matter contained in the applica-
lions being in print, except the name,
regiment, etc. BY this means II is be-
lieved applicants have been induced By
unprincipled attorneys to swear to a
false statement of facts. This is to be
stopped. THE one object l have 10

tary Smith to-day, ais to get at the

Win Col. HART answer this question:
If the fall ln the price Of wool in 1898
Is due 10 "the Democratic threat Of free
wool, what was the cause Of the fall
IN the price Of wool before the Demo-
cratic victory, with the Mckinley wool
schedule 10 full operation?
What has been the cause Of the steady
fan in the price Of wool ever since the
first high wool tariff was enacted in
1867?
We might rest the matter here, for the
lare facts brand our friend Col. HART
as an Atwood demaqogus Of the silliest
character. Wool has gradually fallen
from Az cents in 1867 to 20 cents or
lower In 1898. "a

tion of the walls. which is to be done
leisurely, and chiefly by artist members.
A novel scheme for the treatment OF
the walls has been submitted TO the
club, and will probably be adopted. 1t
is proposed to give the walls a coating OF
some one of the different oil-paint pro-
cesses from the floor to the height a
wainscoting usually goes-a sort or "A
dado, in fact. Then FROM the ceiling down
reserve sufficient room for the pictures
Between these two features there would
be space eighteen inches wide. This
is to be marked of into plain shields, or
some other convenient figure. aud each
member OF the club select one figure and
decorats IL strictly according TO his own
fancy. He may merely write his
name in the space; he NAV paint his
coat-of-srms, his seal, his 'scutcheon. or
whatever he pleases; or he may put in a
charcoal silouhette. pastel or cravon
portrait; or he may do almost any thing
SO that he does it himself
This would make the Press club room
as distinctive as the club is aud would
be a unique feature Of decoration not TO
be seen in any other city on earth. so far
as know Tue friezs OF silhouettes at

proach TO IL ever heard of. The Press

than one.
