NEW PENSION RULINGS.
They are of Interest TO Pensioners.
Agents ond Attorneys.


Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Reynolds has rendered four decisions
of considerable Importance to pension
attorneys. He holds that where sew
eral applications are filed for claim
ant at different times by different al
torneys, based on separate disabilities,
the several applications pending shall
be considered as one claim and allow
ed as such. If a contract for fee of
$25, on account of each disability, has
been filled, the only fee allowed will
be 80 the attorney filing the first con-
tract.
The former practice of dividing the
fee ON allowance of the claim between
the attorneys filing contracts has been
ordered discontinued. This is due to
the fact that the commissioner of pen
sions has no power to vary the terms
of contract or divide the fee between
the attorneys after the party filing the
fiji st agreement, under the law, has
complied with the contract terms.
This ruling will apply to claims al
ready filed and in which the attorney
filing the contract subsequent to the
first has performed no service, and to
all claims hereafter filed.
Where widow claims pension for
herself and her own children, and
also declares for the soldier child by
former wife, the claim will be consid-
cred an entirety and the rights of all
parties are subject to single adjudi-
cation. In these cases the attorney is
entitled to but one fee. In cases
wherein the same relation claimant
asks for increase and alleges a nom
disability, and an attorney prosecutes
tho claim under articles of agreement,
the contract applies TO the whole mat
ter pending and the attorney is held
to but one fee.

built in the United States during the
year 1898. from which it appears that
in engine and passenger cars the re-
cord, as compared with previous years,
is not so bad as Was to have been ex-
pected; but the number of new freight
cars has fallen off from 98, 1876 in 1892
to SO, 082 in 1898. The statistics are
gathered from the principal manufac-
turers throughout the country, but
do not include railroad companies
shops, and they are summarized as
follows: Locomotives built in 1898,
1858; in 1892, 2026. Passenger cars
in 1898, 1880; in 1892, 2195. The

THE TREND OF TRADE.
An INV ird Move in iron. Larger Snies
of Wool. Business Failures.


An INV lrd Move in from. Larger Sales
of Wool. Business Failures.
r. G.. Dun IL Co.'s review says:
Improvement in business still appears
in many directions, but it seems to be
in part balanced by loss in others. Re-
ports of resumption of work continue
to indicate that the industries are doing
more than in December, aud yet the
record of their actual gain is disap-
pointingly small. Tbs marked in
crease which appears in the offerings
of commercial paper has almost
wholly ceased, and the accumulation
of unemployed funds continues 50
large thut Endorsed mill paper has been
taken at 2 "a per cent. The lowest
prices ever known for wheat have
been recorded. Doubtless the uncer-
tainty about the taritf bill and current
measures of Importance pending in
the house has some hindering intlu
ence, but there is still seen an in
creased demand for many kinds of
goods because of the exhaustion of
stocks i'll the hands of dealers.
The volume of domes site trade does
not materially increase, exchanges in
dicating decline compared with last
year of 1875 per cent elsewhere and
24.9 per cent in New York.
The actual production of pig iron
February l was 90 ,242 tons weekly,
against 3d. S7 tons January and
171,201 It year ago. The apparent
output was slightly less in January
than in December, but the increase in
stocks unsold was only Is, 1907, against
19,447 in December. There have
| been large sales of steel billets and q
better demand for wire nails, wire
rods and barbed wire, while the Pitts
burg price of Bessemer pig has ad-
| vanced.
Philadelphia notes fair transactions,
and improvement appears at Chicago.
| The decrease in shipments of boots
| and shoes at Boston was only II per
cent.
Textile fabrics are gaining a little.
Inquiry discloses larger stocks of cot
ton goods held by dealers than was
supposed, and quite a large proper
ton of mills are likely to close before
long unless orders increase, but the
number reported started is again sew
eral times larger than those closing.
Sales of wool were larger last week
and the markets were more active,
but this week is comparatively quiet.
Many mills have opened in an exper-
mental way and have made up goods
to try the market, with results not a.
yet largely encouraging. There is a
better demand for dress goods, and
some worsteds, but in general the
trade is extremely dull, The recent
sharp reductions in cotton goods have
not brought out the extreme business
expected.
Domestic exports fell below those
of the corresponding week last year
though for the year thus far the in
crease is Z per cent, while the import;
are 40 per cent less than last year.
The failures of the week are 3S5 ii
the United States, against 222 las
year, and sixty III Canada, against
forty-four last year, several being Of
more than ordinary Importance.
