PROPOSED PENSION REFORMS.
Commissioner Evans suggests That
Attorneys he Dispensed with.

WASHINGTON, d. c., December So'-
Commissioner-of- Pensions Evans has been
giving some attention to proposition
whereby the services of pension attorneys
engaged in the prosecution of claims pc
fore the office may be dispensed with' ana
their work done by officials under gov
ernment supervision. Informally, he mas
been discussing the matter with memDeIs
OF the House Committee on Invalid rem
sions. but is not yet prepared TO outline
the details Of his plan. The present sys-
TEN. he says, is wrong, and shouid nave
been done away with long ago.
Disseminating the services OF the atlor-
news would result in a great saving 10
both pensioners and the govel nment, ana
liability to frauds in ISSUING pensions
would be reduced to a minimum
Under government supervision, the
Pension Bureau would have direct control
of the persons appointed to look after the
cases. whose business it would be TO see
that all honest claims were promptly ana
intelligently presented
The Commissioner notes the fact that
s13. 500 600 has been paid out during the
mast twelve years TO pension attorneys py
applicants for the prosecution or thelr
claims.

about 100000 bushels of wheat, if any

cember wheat by the Letter brokers,
seem proof that there is no December
shortage now outstanding. 1t was this
fact a. much as nnyf hing else which he's
made the trade bearish despite very
bullish array of news for the day. 1t is
generally expected that the great deal
will be wound up without the sensations
that were looked for earlier in the
month.
The plucky manner in which all of the
cash wheat had been taken in by Letter
and the liberal way in which May had
beep bought, led TO a revulsion of feel
ing on the curb after the board had
closed. The report was current that the
British had called out their naval re-
seryas, and the news threw the bears
into panic. The May price was rushed
