senator COIquftt's FuneraI-An I'M
pOrtant Pension Decision
senator PETER Does
Not Like COxey's
Army.

Washington, d. c., March 27. -
The funeral services over the remains
of Senator Colquitt drew to the senate
chamber very distinguished company.
President Cleveland was not present but
all the members of the cabinet excepting
Secretary Lamont were there. Senate
Chaplain Mi1burn conducted the cere-
monies, assisted by Chaplain Bagby, of
the house. The blind preacher was pecu-
liarly impressive in his rendering of the
service for the dead and in his address he
dwelt particularly on the virtues of the
home life of the distinguished senator,
rather than his political achievements.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies the
casket WAS taken up by eight capitol
policemen and preceded by a committee
| of the senate and house, appointed to ac-
company the remains home, passed
through the south door of the chamber.
The family consisting Of the widow, five
daughters, son and private secretary
of the dead statesman, followed. When
the chamber had been emptied of all save
senators and officers, Senator Harris, of
Tennessee, moved that the senate adjourn
at 9:45 a. m. and this was agreed to.
PETERS OPINION OF ooxEY.
"It is foolish and childish" remarked
Senator PETER, when asked about Coxey's
Army. II have advised against it from
the first and have written letters and in
speeches pointed out that no object
could be attained by such haphazard
move as this. 1t is no spontaneous up
rising and organization like the Farmers
Alliance. Coxey is horse trader, horse
raiser and gambler to start with, and it is
not presumed that he could bring about
him men who could give weight to such
movement"
AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
The pension rolls will be greatly en-
larged hy the decision of Assistant Sc
cretary of the Interior Reynolds, an
nounced at the department to-day. It is
one of the most important decisions
made by the present administration and
admits to the rolls the names of large
number of insane, idoits and permanently
helpless minor children of deceased
soldiers where pensions of the former
had ceased by their children attaining the
age of sixteen years, prior to the act of
June ~, 1890. The decision holds that
the act of 1890 has the effect of restoring
these dependent persons to the rolls dur
ing life or continuance of their disability.
TO-DAY's SENATE.
The senate met at 9;45 o'clock to-day
and Immediately adjourned until -
o'clock tomorrow.

Charged With Fraud.

DR.. D. G. Patton, United States exam
lining surgeon at Pine Fork, Tenn, was
recently arrested by Special Examiner
Hammer, arraigned before United States
Commissioner Morgan at Cookevine and
bound over to the Federal Court at
Nashville. The charge against him is
violating section 5, 49S Revised Statutes,
which forbids the acceptance of any
gift, gratuity or valuable consideration
from any claimant by any officer of the
United States for any act performed in
an official capacity. His bond was fixed
at 81, 200. The penalty is fine of $4,000
or years imprisonment. 1t is charged
that Patton has been browbeating PEN
sioners by making them give him part
of their pensions; that he threatened to
report them as fraudulent unless they
gave him part of the money. The play
has been going on long time, and it is
possible that lot of the pensioners
will be thrown out.

heat so much as light. This peculiar
affection frequently befalls workmen
employed in melting metals by means
of the electric process. 1t appears
from observations made at steel and
iron works that the intense voltaic arc
between the carbon and the metal to
be melted emit rays which, even at
distance of thirty feet, produce pain
full, hot, pricking sensation, like that
of burn on such uncovered portions
of the body as the throat, face, and,
more especially, forehead. The skin
of the parts affected becomes either
copper colored or assumes a bronze
hue; the eyes, in spite of black glasses,
are so intensely dazzled as to be use
less for some minutes, after which an
thopsia yellow vision) sets in. Every
thing appears saffron-colored, the con-
junctiva are inf1amed, and there is a
gritty feeling as of sand under the
eyelids. There is frequently great
pain, also sleeplessness, and in some
cases fever. 1t is now found that the
surest and quickest cure for this affec-
tion is perfect rest in a subdued light.
Under these conditions the symptoms
subside, usually in few days, the skin
of the affected part peels, and the pa
tient is restored to health. Chicago
