PENSION DECISIONS.
Cases Disposed of by Assistant Secretary
Davis.

Assistant Secretary of the Interior
Webster Davis rendered decisions in a
pension case affecting pension attorneys,
in which he aili ms the action of the Hon
orable mmissioner of Pensions The
in the case of Thomas j. Edwards, list
laid down that:e
are pending in behalf of the same person,
torney will not inure to his benefit as
one claim, unless he indorses upon said
instrument or sets forth in their contents
the several claims TO which they are in
tended TO apply"
The Assistant Secretary reversed the
action of the Pension Bureau in the case
OF james l.. Ferris, yeoman, United States
Navy, in which he holds:
"A sailor on shore for exercise and recrea-
ton, by permission of his officers, occu-
pies a different status, with respect to
line of duty from soldier absent from
his command on pass or Through, and
should be regarded as in the line of duty
SO long as he conforms to the conditions
of the permission granted him, and is
guilty of no misconduct.
THE claimant having been shot in the
lip by some person unknown, while 'on
liberty by proper permission, and the
weight of the evidence tending TO show
that he was not in fault, the rejection OF
his claim for pension on the ground that
the wound was not incurred in the line of
duty was error.

THE OUTLOOK.

The feet of Admiral Cervera, appre-
hensiun of which has retarded the move
ments of the army for weeks, is now dis
posed of. 1t is impotent for any further
harm, except to join in the defense of
Santiago. We can now carry out the oc-
cupation of Cuba and Porto Rico just as
if it did not exist.
This week Will be full of stirring
events. 1t is believed that the southern
waters are filled with transports carrying
troops. Whittier they are bound is of
course secret. The latest impression
derived from the White House is that
the first landing will be at Santiago, to
assist Commodore Schley to reduce that
port to actual possession. While this
would be a very wise move, the fact
that it is so obvious, and that the White
House has suffered hint to 60 abroad
that it will be done, is against its being
done at present.
In war it is generally best not to do the
thing which the enemy expects, and
which you have given him reason to
believe you will do. Therefore, the
troops may descend first upon Porto
Rico, or Immediately upon the deienses
Of Habana.
Really, it matters very little which is
first, for the rest will rapidly follow, and
we think that before our next paper
reaches our readers there will be an
irresistible force of American soldiers on
both islands, and their reduction to
complete possession will be going for
ward swiftly and thoroughly.

Shorty seemed in the act Of springing for

eagerly toward the Colonel's tent, and saw

parently, all the officers had been in con-
sultation with him, for they were hurrying
away to their several companies.

Sergeant. Fall in promptly"

Hurry up, Orderly" said Capt McGilli-
cuddy, coming up with sword and belt in
hand. Let the boys take what rations
they can lay their hands on, but not stop to
cook any. We've got to go on the jump"
All was rush and hurry. ST and Shorty
bolted for their house, forgetful of their
mangled feet. 81 got in first, took his gun
and cartridge-box down, and buckled on his
belt He looked around for his rations
while Shorty was putting on his things
His bread and meat and ShOrty's were sepa-
rate, and there was no trouble about them.
But the coffee and sugar had not been
divided and were in common receptacles.
He opened the coffee-can and looked in
There did not seem to be more than one
ration there. He hesitated brief instant
what to do. 1t would serve Shorty lust right
to take all the coffee. He liked his coffee
even better than Shorty did, and was very
strenuous about having it. If he did not take

anxious to make up or afraid, and he wanted
to demonstrate that he was neither. Then
there was a twinge that it would be mean to

THE veterans of Buffalo, n. Y, are
deeply wrought up over the discrimina-
tons practiced against them by the
Board of Public Works and other
officials having the power of appoint
ment and employment. They have
been holding meetings denouncing these
men, and threatening the formation of q
political party to care for their rights.
They have over 5000 votes, and can
make themselves felt. At the same
meetings they express their highest
loyalty to the Government, and offer to
enlist for frontier duty, or any other in
which they can render, service.

THE Spanish army has even greater
surprise in store in regard to the marks
manship of American soldiers than the
Spanish navy had as to the sharpshoot-
ing of American sailors. No country in
the world has paid SO much attention to
rifle practice as we have, and there is no
doubt that our Regular Army and Ma
tional Guard can far outshoot any other
troops in the world. IF Blanco sets an
army in front of us as we enter Cuba it
stands good chance of being slaughtered
without doing much damage in return.
