night to large audience. He said
that sometimes he had known preach

The action of the late congressional
convention. in which Crawford, Shep-
par1 and the speaker withdrew after a
long contest and presented the name
of ID. b. Culberson, was discussed
and every Democrat urged to exert his
full strength for the nominee. He said
that the Vindlcator Chird party gave
the text from which all those who OPP
posed Culberson were preaching. He
declared that no Democrat had a right
to oppose the regular nominee of the
Democratic party. Each Democrat
could fight for his choice before the
nomination, but any man who DELHI
erately opposes said he, the Demo-
cratic nominee. is an enemy to the
Democratic party, be he George Clark,
ID. C. Glddings, Henry ID. Mcdonald

Washington. Oct l2.-Steps will be
taken by the pension bureau TO mete
cut punishment TO the remaining mem
bers OF boards of pension examiners
involved in the Van Lueven frauds.
Indictments against several physicians
have already been returned, There are
five boards involved In the corrupt
methods, and several members OF these
yet remain to be prosecuted probably
half q dozen. The number OF cases
filed by Van Louven reaches 800. and
about so per cent at least are fraudu-
lent.
Judge McComas says: The secretary
of the treasury has concluded that the
sugal bounty repeal paragraph Of the
tariff act of 1894 is a repeal of the act
of October I, 1880, requiring supervl-
sion and inspection OF the production
OF sugar. This clause Is not expressly
repealed II Is, however, incidental
and intermediate to the Issuing OF
licenses to producers and the pay
ment of hounties TO them.
These are expressly repealed, and the
Issuing OF licenses and payment Of
bountiea declared unlawful. The re-
neal OF the clause. for inspection and
superylsion is Useless fragment Of
statute, and It's repeal Ii therefore
fairly implied"
The court refuses TO Interfere with
the decision OF the treasurer ana sus-
gests the only relief for sugar pro-
ducers holding unexpired licenses is
to appeal to congress, presumably for
financial recompense. The petition for
mandamus is therefore refused.
