PENSIONS OF WIDOWS
They Will Be Paid Hereafter Cnly
When Necessary For Their
Support.
. DECISION BY REYNOLDS.
House Has Dellcacy in Asking Cleve-
land For a History Of China
Japan Controversy.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-The pension
bureau will hereafter refuse pensions
to widows whose income from other
sources affords them comfortable sup.
port. This policy is provided for in a
ruling Of Assistant Secretary Reynolds,
based on the June ~, 1890, act. In his
decision the assistant secretary says:
.'It was evidently the intention Of
congress to supplement- the Widows
means of support from her own labor,
and all other sources, by the pension,
only when such means were insult
ficient for her comfortable sup
port. Under ordinary circumstances,
without intending to lay down an arbi-
trary and infexible rule when a widow
is shown to have an income consider
ably in excess Of the pension provided
by the third section Of the act, from
sources independent of her daily labor,
she does not occupy a pensionable
status Hereunder"
Judge Reynolds also held in the case
Of James Heating, Fifteenth regiment,
United States infantry, that where a
soldier died before final action by the
bureau of pensions and his claim had
been subsequently rejected, the attor.
ney Of record has no legal right to ap.
peal from such rejection without first
obtaining from the widow Of the soldier
a power Of attorney to continue its
prosecution.

UTE INDIAN TROUBLES.
They Are Robbing, Pillaging and Driving
Off Stock in Utah.

They Are Robbing, Pillaging and Driving
Off Stock in Utah.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-Delegate
Rawlins of Utah says he looks for war
in Utah before the Ute Indian difficult
ties are settled. The latest reports that
he has received indicate a serious con
dition Of affairs.
The Indians have advanced within 80
miles of Moab, and have caused settlers
a great deal of trouble, robbing and
pillaging, and especially driving off
stock. Mr.. Rawlins says that the white
settlers have notified everybody to have
the women and children removed to
places Of safety. The settlers are arm
ing and intend to drive the Indians
back into Colorado, or at least out Of
Utah. Mr.. Rawlins has called the at
tention Of Secretary Smith to the an
ticipated troubles, and told him that
the settlers will remove the Indians if
the government does not.

BROOKLYN TABERNACLE.

1t Was Sold Unde Foreclosure to the
Second Mortgage.
BROOKLYN. Dec. 8.-The Brooklyn
Tabernacle property in Clinton, Green
and Waverly avenues was sold under
foreclosure proceedings in the old auc-
ton room in Willoughby street, noted
as Hugh McLaughlin's headquarters.
Charles 7. Wills, who held a second
mortgage on the property, was respon-
sible for placing it in the hands of the
sheriff. There was only one bid,
$4,000, and it was made by Mr.. Wills,
over and above the amount due Russell
Sage on the first mortgage. AS the
amount due Mr.. Sage is SOL, 765. Mr..
Wills gets the big plot for about SLY. 900
less than it cost the Tabernacle.

ond, that the charter Of labor union

Crocker and Dryer Think Racing in This

New YORK, Dec. 8.-The World says
Richard Croker and M. F. Dwyer are
contemplating the transfer of their rae
ing interests to England. Mr.. Croker
has had the matter under consideration
for some time.
Croker and I think racing will not

Dryer is quoted as saying, 'and as he

The Bankruptcy Bill the House Will Con.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The bank
ruptcy bill, which the Democratic eau
Gus of the senate has indicated a will.
lingness to consider at the present ses-
sion is by no mean the same measure
as that which passed the house, known
as the Bailey bill, during the long ses.
sion. The house bill contained only
about four pages, whereas the bill
which the senate will be called upon to
consider covers 18pages. It carries the
title of the house bill, but retains only
the first two sections of the Bailey
bill, and even these are amended.
The bill was amended in the senate
judiciary committee, and the amend
ments are understood to have been sug
gested in the main ny Senator George
Of Mississippi. The amendments in.
serted by the senate committee related
entirely to matters Of detail in making
assignment, arranging exemptions, pre-
ferring creditors, etc. The main pro-
vision in the bill is for assignment OF
cesslon Of property by any debtor owing
$500 or more that he cannot pay.
The friends of the bill are inclined
to urge that the steering committee
shall give it preference over other
measures selected for consideration by
the caucus. They say that a bank
ruptcy bill is n Of the urgent demands
OF the times, OIL account of the fact

PARIS, Dec. 1O.-Count Ferdinand de

ment of L'Indre. During the night he
received the last sacrament.
The French newspapers dwell upon
the contrast between his brilliant
career and his melancholy end, say
ing that he contributed to spread
abroad the greatness and inter-
ests Of France. They say that the
work in which he failed will be for

what he has accomplished.

QUESTION OF APPROPRIATENESS

House Has Some Delicacy in Asking For
Certain Information.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Representa-
tives Hit and Storer, Republican mem
bers Of the house committee on foreign
affairs, have talked over the desirable
ity of a house resolution Of inquiry on
the attitude of the government in the
China-Japan a Mr.. Storer had in
tended to introduce such a resolution
and he may yet do so. It is felt, how
ever, that the house of representatives
has such limited authority over foreign
affairs that the inquiry could be more
properly conducted in the senate. More
over, events in the China-Japan war are
changing the situation so constantly
chat there is doubt as to the nature of
an inquiry. This doubt is increased by
the fact that no information as to the
course of. this government has yet been
given to any members of the foreign
committee, so that in the absence OF
foreign information it is difficult tc
project any inquiry. 1t is believed by
members Of the house that the whole
China-Japan question will be gone ove1
in the senate when Senator Lodges
resolution concerning the Chinese exc.
cution OF the Japanese students under
American protection is taken up. Until
the senate has had III opportunity tt
act on the subject, MIR. Storer will holo
his resolution in allegiance.

o NEXT YEAR.

:N'ospect For Huain ess After the Holidays
, "nsi,ierr Inconrs;ing.
NEW YoRE, De. lJ--K. G. Dun s.
Co.'s Weekly Review OF Trade says:
1t is difficult to detect any change in
current business affairs. Prospects for
business after Jan. 1are quite generally
considered Tor hopeful; in some
branches there are larger orders and the
westbound shipments Of merchandise
are a little larger, but the working
force naturally diminishes near the end
of the year and the holiday traffic
brings just now a temporary activity
which is not Of such general signif-
canoe. The meeting Of congress and
the announcement of the new currency
plan and Of various bills proposed have
not affected the situation perceptibly.
On the whole agricultural products are
scarcely stronger, and wages of labor
do not advance, but there is reason to
expect the employment Of a somewhat
larger working force after the holidays.
Slight Advance in Wheat.
The receipts Of wheat are larger than
agar ago and the exports smaller, but
foreign accounts, particularly as to the
Argentine cop, has helped an advance
OF ~ cents. Estimates of the winter
wheat acreage indicate an increase of
10 per cent, with a condition some
what better than last year. Although
corn receipts have been much larger
than a year ago, and exports not one
sixth as large, the price has changed
but little, cotton has fallen again to
81 cents, very close to the lowest
point for many years, and actual re-
ceipts from plantations are larger to
date than in 1891, when the crop was
over 5000, 900 bales. The iron industry
seems to have
Distinctly Brighter Prospeess
at Chicago. where pig iron is frmer
and bar in larger demand because OF
orders for freight cars. But Besseme,
iron has sold at $40. rs at Pittsburg,
steel rails have been reduced to S2S
there and wire rods and nails are
weaker. Comparison of prices there
and at the East shows the lowest aver
age yet recorded.
The wool manufacturers, Judging
from sales at the three chief markets
since Sept. I, has been doing 3 per CEN
more than last year, but 81 per cent less
than in 1892.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-Information
has reached here that the Chinese gov
eminent will appoint an ambassador to
proceed to Japan to treat for peace. AS
the former government is anxious for
peace, the ambassador will promptly
start for Toxic, or more probably Hiro,

his council are now. It is expected
that Count Ito and, in all probability,
Mr.. Mutsu, the Japanese minister OF

that Japan never treated the American

Kin-Choo, a town of Manchuria, eight
miles from the north shore of the gulf
Of Llantung, avoiding an attack Of
