Commissioner Thinks Pension Lawyers
should BE Put Out OF Business.
WASHINGTON, Dec. s1.-Commis-
sioner OF Pensions Evans has been Civ
Ing some attention TO a proposition
whereby the services of pension attor-
neys engaged In the prosecution OF
claims before the Office may be dis
pensed with and their work done by
officials under government supervision.
Informally he has been discussing the
matter with members Of the house COM
mitteo on invalid pensions. but is not
yet prepared TO outline the details of
his plans.
The present system, he says, Is wrong
and should have been done away with
long ago. Disseminating the services OF
the attorneys would result in n great
saving to both pensioners and the gov
ernment and liability to frauds in issu-
ing pensions would be reduced to a
minimum.
Under government supervision the
pension bureau would have direct con-
troll Of the persons appointed to look
after the cases, whose business II would
be TO see that all honest demands were
promptly and intelligently presented
The commissioner notes the fact that
SlS, 800, 900 has been paid out during the
past IS years TO pension attorneys by
applicants for the prosecution of their
claims.

that the police would bring any other

Although there Is yet some mystery
as regards the motive, all parties, in-
Guiding Mr. White and Captain Hodg-
don, refuse TO make any explanations.
Cooke, the self accused firebug, who
was taken to Jail In default Of $4,000
bonds, Is suffering with nervous pros-
tration. He refuses 60 make any state
ment and says that he told Detective
Sergeant Dennahy. who arrested him,
all that he Is going TO say about the
case.
The jail officers say Cooke was unable
TO sleep, and yesterday he was unable
20 see any one, he was so nervous.
While the excitement Of his arrest and
the travel to this city was upon him
Cooke was able TO bear up, but the soli-

seemed TO overcome him, and the nerv-
Gus strain was something terrible. He
