EVENING SESSION, THE PREsIDENT's IS
REPORT.
The next business in order was the
annual report Of the President, Mr..
Donnelly gave review of the bust
ness of the alliance during the year.
He spoke of the great success which
had attended the establishment of
the alliance organ, the REPRESENTA-
TIVE. He produced the proofs of the
mailing galleys, showing that it has,
in nine months, reached an actual,
paid-up, subscription list of AOO-
(which was swelled during the con-
vention to nearly 2,7OO). He invited
any doubters to count the names.
He referred to the ruthless persecu-
tion the paper had been subject to,
even long before it's first number ap
peared, by the Great West, the editor
of which had declared that he would
"trip it up the back" and that it
must die before July 1st, 1893. Here
the President caught sight of q. w.

Turin, March 2S.-The funeral SER
vices over the remains of Louis Kos
suth, were held in the Evangelic church
this evening. The route of procession
to the church was lined with the mimi
cipal guard. The streets presented an
unusual spectacle on account of the
presence or throngs of Hungarians in
natural costume. Only the prominent
members of the Hungarian delegation
and the representatives OF other for
elgn countries were able to secure. adj
mission to the church. The coffin rest
ed on handsome catafalque in front
OF the altar and was covered with flow
ers. A guard of honor of Hungarian
students, and the sons and other rela-
tiYeS of the dead were grouped about
1t, Pastor Peyrout delivered a eulo-
CYSTIC sermon, and, after other simple
services, the body was borne to the
railroad station followed by a great
multitude of many nationalities. There
1t was delivered to General Turrmarkus
representing Buda Pesth, by the mayor
of Turin, in a sympathetic address. The
train is expected to reach Buda Pesth
tomorrow morning.
Shortly before 9 o'clock tonight the
special train to convey the remains of
KoSsuth to Buda Pesth came into the
station, and the coffin was placed upon
the train. The guard of honor, com
posed of Hungarian students, then
| took their places in the carriages. TO-
gether with the members of Kossuth's
| family and the representatives of the
municipality of Buda Pesth A detach-
| ment of military was present and at

| three volleys were fired.

Washington, March 28.-The ruling
of Assistant Secretary Reynolds, of
the interior department, which will
add to the pension rolls the names OF
a large number of insane, idiotic and
permanently helpless minor children of
deceased soldiers, decides the claim Of
Harrison F. Loeb, Of Ducks county,
Pennsylvania, whose father was killed
at the battle Of Gettysburg while serv-
ing In company H 15Jst PENNSYLVANIA
infantry. The minor reached the six
teenth year limit June 8, 1879. His
claim, based on permanent helpless
ness, was filed under the act of June
~ 1871, on December 9, 1891, and re-
Jected April II, 1892, on the ground
that he was over 16 years OF age at
the date Of filing claim. The act I'M
der which he applied provides that
where a minor child is insane, idiotio
| or otherwise permanently helpless,
pensions shall continue during the
child's life or during the period Of the
disability. This proviso, 1t is said, ap-
plies to all pensions heretofore granted
or hereafter to be granted under this
| or any former statute
| The issue presented was whether, by
the terms Of the act, the pnsion of an
insane, idiotic or permanently helpless
minor which had ceased by the minor
attaining the age of 16 years before the
date Of passage of this act was renew
able.
1t was held by a former assistant
secretary that such pensions were not
renewable, and all like cases were re-
jected.
| Secretary Reynolds, in rejecting the
| former departments rule and admit
ting these claims. holds that where,
under the general law the pension of
minor children who are insane. idiotic.
or permanently helpless has terminal
ed by reason of attaining their pension
able majority prior to the passage of
the act of June q, 1890, the pension
may be renewed from the date Of fill
ling application upon proof of a con-
tinued and uninterrupted insanity,
Iidiocy or helplessness."
! In commenting upon the former rul-
ling, Judge Reynolds says: 1T would
seem that little further than a careful
reading of the act itself would be suffi-
Gent to demonstrate the fact that this
law has been misconstrued to the
grievous harm of a class Of the nations
dependents who should receive, as the
law intends they should, the most be-
nevolent consideration.
| mo other Interpretation of the law
lis consistent with justice, reason and
| the express terms of the statute. The
whole scope of the law was to provide
for state of dependence and the for
lmer Interpretation seems to me to be
/ wholly at variance with the intention

method Of procedure under the re-
Organization act
/ 1t is not supposed the bill will go
through committee without opposi-
ton. However, there is little doubt
but the bill will go on the calendar
with favorable report. Friends of
the bill assert the scheme for building
a canal across the isthmus under the
auspices of the United States has made
material progress in public estimation
within the past few years, and atten-
ton is called to the fact by a member
of the committee that the president had
changed from his attitude of hostility,
which he occupied nine years ago, to
one of advocacy, and that the legisla-
lures of Various states and chambers
of commerce of several large cities
have memoralized Congress in the in
terest of the enterprise, advocating the
Building of the canal by the govern
ment, or with its support.
1t is also asserted that the House
committee which originally opposed the
measure, had changed in sentiment and
is now in a fair way to report bill
similar to the Morgan bill.
