JUDGE LOCHREN HOME.
The Pension Commissioners Enjoy
ing Short Vacation.


ing a Short Vacation.
United States Pension Commissioner,
Judge Lochren, arrived in the city yes
terday from Washington, accompanied
10y his family. His presence in the city
has no political significance, and is
purely of private character.
In conversation with reporter he
said: II made my wife's return to Min
neapolis an excuse for getting away
from work for few days vacation. l
shall go back TO Washington in a few
days: probably OH Monday"
Questioned as to political matters, he
pleaded ignorance OF anything new,and
said, while his name might have been
mentioned in connection with various
Offices. he had no political aspirations.
He also said that he knew nothing of
his rumOred resi- gnation from the pen
sion commiSSiOnship except what he
had seen in the newspapers.
Judge Lochrcn pronounced the at
tempted connection of politics with the
Van Leuven case as all nonsense.
"rhere is nothing OF the kind" he said.
1.-The case was taken up on its merits
and pushed just as any other case of
fraud would be. And think yuu will
find that the special examiner who has
been at the head of the matter and most
active in its prosecution is a Rerub-
hcan.
do you EXPECT that Van Leuven will
be convicted?"
"rhere seems to be no doubt that
there is sufficient evidence for cOnvic-
tiOn," was the reply.

Is Fast Assuming Normal Con-
dition. ::
The amount of shipments from the
local market indicate that the trade is
getting back into the condition in which
it was before the cut ra.es went into eff
feet. says the Lumbermap. There was
falling off in the shipments the last
week Of about two million feet. and
the figures are now at about fair
average, though still quite little above
those for the early part of May. Com
pared with last year there is difference
of about two million feet in favor of
1898. But last year was all exceptional
year. and June an exceptional month.
The shipments for every week IN June
last year were in the neighborhood of
the ten million mark, and held up
throughout the whole month. Going
back another year to 1892. it is noticed
that the amount shipped for the week
corresponding to this was identically
the same. SO that it can be seen that
trade is still keeping up to the ordinary
run.

Although the mayor requested Gen.

the city's good. the big fellow
was OH hand last night with all
his moxie. and spoke to a crowd
of several thousand people Oh Hay
market square. They were not all
commonwealers or 'commonwheeIers,"
as the astute general calls them in his
bad English. They were for the most
part working men out of employment
who came to the square expecting to
hear something that would interest
them. The hundred or more soldiers
were on the platform surrounding the
commander. They were fairly bursting
with Bologna sausage, corned beef.
lager beer and river water. This was
no doubt the reason they were unable
to applaude with any degree of vigor
when Gen. Jumbo" made his wild
stabs of rhetoric.
The fat commander talked until he
was red In the face and his voice lost
Itself in a mass OF hoarseness. He
roasted the newspapers and called the
reporters every vile name he could lay
his tongue to. He took a turn
at the mayor and applied a
few choice epithets 10 him and
then fell onto tie railroads, the Great
Northern in particular. with vim that
might have accomplished wonders had
it been directed in another channel.
For the most part his speech was made

immensely.

to remain any longer he would do SO.
There was nothing small about him, and
