Numerous Visitors Inspect the IIPndsome
Oil Studies Yesterday.
Art admirers found much to interest
them in the Scott collection of fine oil
paintings on exhibition at Carney,
Brown & Co.'S building at the corner Of
Adams avenue and Linden street. The
handsomely arranged apartments were
visited by many picture buyers and art
critics yesterday who were enthusiastic
in their praises of Mr.. SCOTS fine col
lection. Among the studies that were
admired by the connoisseurs were In
the Studies" by Tamburini; The
Coquette," by ]. II. Witt, of New York;
the head OF white face bull by X. A.
Fox, one Of the most talented animal
painters in America; and many others.
In fact the entire collection is composed
of the works of the best known artists
OF Europe and America and one could
scarcely make mistake in giving fav-
orable criticism upon any canvas eXhib-
tied.
Mr.. Scott was kept busy nearly all
day yesterday welcoming old friends
and patrons who were almost unani-
nous in the opinion that the present
collection is one of the finest ever shown
In the city of Scranton. The art gal
lery will be open today and this eve
ming, and no admirer Of fine pictures
should fail tC inspect the paintings.

and John +. Brennan proved his claim
to the title of "the genteel Irish actor"
The first act Is laid in that delightful
spot, Killarney, the subject of so many
romantic tales, and the humorous vein
Of Irish life was admirably sustained
through the play. Little Winnie" the
juvenile actress, deserves first mention,
owing to the perfectly natural manner
in which she carried out her part and
won the unstinting plaudits Of the audi
ence.
Miss Eilee Desmond was a great fav-
orite in her part as Tins sweetheart,
and sang with great fervor "They Are
Faithful and True In Killarney" Miss
Marie Gauthre as Tins sister proved
a great success. and the remaining
parts were very creditably performed.
Mr.. Brennan sang several songs of a
humorous character and was loudly ap-
plauded. Tim the Tinker" will be per-
formed again this evening

UNCLE SANS PENSIONERS.
An Interesting Report for Veterans of the
Late War.

WASHINGTON, oct 13.-The report Of
Commissioner of Pensioners Lochren for
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1894 has
been submitted to the secretary of the in
terror and the following abstract has been
given for publication:
ThcrepOrt states that the number of pen
sioncrs on the rolls June 3d. 1898, was $685.
Ol2i that during the year 39O5l new pen
sioners were added TO the rolls, 1881 were
dropped for death and other causes and
S,3JS previously dropped were restored to
the rolls. The number of pensioners on
the rolls on June 30, 1894 was g69,5 ,5i4. The
number of pension certificates issued dur
ing the year was 80, 1913 and 132, ,S73 claims
OF all classes were rejected.
On July l, 1894, there were undisposed of
and in different stages Of preparation and
advancement claims for pension and for
increase TO the amount Of S619,027, of which
2SG2OJ claims, originals, widows and de
pendents, are on behalf of persons not al
ready ON the rolls. These claims, save
some recently filed, have been examined
more than once and found lacking in es.
sential evidence. They are the same cases
that have come down through the past
years.
The amount paid for pensions during
the year was $l39, ,SO4, i6l, leaving a balance
in the treasury Of S25, POS, ,713 of the appro-
priation Much dishonesty and fraud
mainly attributable to unscrupulous claim
agents, was uncovered and there wert

THE DEMANDS OF JAPAN
Sweeping Claims Of a Japanese
Newspaper,
MUST RENDER CHINA PowBRLEss

The Exaction of Indemnity Would Not Suit
Japan's Interest, but She should occupy
Shanghai, Collect Customs Duties, and
Civilize the Celestials.
WASHINGTON, oct. 18.-The kind Of in
demuity which Japan is urged in some
quarters to exact from China is shown by
the Japan Daily Herald, received at the
japanese legation yesterday 1t says
"Therc is tisk for the demand of "a large
sum Of money and also for the cession
of territory from the Middle kingdom.
But we must take into consideration
whether they serve to effect our purpose to
crush her fighting power, and render her
powcrloss for a period of at least forty to
fifty years. The ceding of Manchuria or
Formosa to us may no doubt be very good,
but this would not diminish her power to
carry on war i'm proportion to our trouble
TO rule these provinces. Likewise, the
execution of an indemnity would not suit
Japan's interest
The paper suggests an eXpedient which
would entirely prove beneficial to Japan.
This is the taking of the Nanyang Pei
yong, Canton and Fullien squadrons of
Chinese men-of-war, which could be EN-
ployed for fighting purposes, with the ad-
dition Of the whole of the vessels Of the
China Merchants Steamship Navigation
company In the event that this is not
sufficient Shanghai should be occupied
the japanese receiving the custom duties
Of that port. Japan should thus not lose
this opportunity to enlarge her power on
the sea.
The article concludes; Shanghai will
be the most tadyantageousp place foruphold
ing our influence in the east and checking
the western current The town is also &
most convenient station by which to intro
ducc into China the elements Of civiliza
ton, whereas the receipts from the Gus
toms dues of that port might be expended
with this view"
