Pension Bureau Reversed.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. February 2S.-Several
decisions of pension matters have been pro-
mulgated by Assistant Secretary of the In
terror Reynolds. In the case of the depend
ent mother of Abraham Woods of the 22nd
New Jersey volunteers, who died IN the ser-
vice. the department holds that where the
father and mother of the soldier are with
out property and the father is unable to
support the family. the mother is dependent
within the meaning of the law. Her claim
was recently rejected by the commissioner
of pensions and his action is overruled.
The assistant secretary also holds that q
muster-,n is not essential to the pensionab.e
status of a soldier who has been regularly,
according to the military law. enlisted in
the military service of the government. The
ruling reverses the action of the pension
bureau.

No Executions.

The steamship Australia arrived in San
Francisco from Honolulu. Among her pas
sengers are thirteen exiles from the Hawaiian
islands. They were put on board by an
official of the republic at the last moment
before the sailing of the steamer. Among
the mum Der are only few who have been
accused of actual completely in the recent
revolut on. The others are mostly Brltishers
and Germans who made themselves obnox-
ious to the republican form of government
by doing too much talking.
Among the exiies who became known as
supporters of the revoluti nary party are
Wurbenburg. Creighton. Peterson, Rath-
emil, Brown and Fitzs lrnmons. The most
important news brought by the steamer was
the decision of President Dole and cabinet

leading rebel plotters. The sentences were
commuted to thirty five years imprisoh men,
