DEATH REGARDED AS PROVEN,
Assistant Secretary Davis Decision on
q Claim for Pension.

Cin1m Tor Pension.
Webster Davis. assistant secretary of The
interior, rendered decision In a pension
case today, the ruling In which is import
ant ard interesting on account Of the fact
that 1t relates to the question of satisfac-
tory evidence as to the long and unex-
planned absence Of the soldier. The claim
is that of Matilda L., widow of James II.
Kelly, late quartermaster sergeant, Dist
Independent Battery, Ohio Volunteer Light
Artillery.
Assistant Secretary Davis reverses the
decision Of the pension bureau and grants
the claimant pension The widow in her
ar plication states that her husband is
dead; that he has been absent for more
than twenty years, and she has not heard
from him during that period In his de-
cision he says:
1T is shown beyond dispute that the SOL
der disappeared and ! as not been heard
from since November 1871 lust before he
stated he was about to depart on a long
and more or less dangerous voyage around
the world, and that ne has never returned
from that voyage according to his express
ed intention at his departure. No explana-
ton whatever of his failure to carry out
his intention or of his continuous absence
and silence for more than twenty years is
afforded by the evidence in this case other
than the natural presumption under the
circumstances that he died before he COM
pleted his voyage. and was not able to
carry out his intentions.
1T is manifest and indisputable that the
pre- ofsi In this case fully meets and fulfills
the conditions and requirements of the act
Of March 49, 1896, and therefore the death
of this soldier should be accepted rs sufIi-
GENTLY proved as therein provided.
In view however. of the foregoing con-
sideration. ] am clearly of the opinion that
the ground upon which this claim was re-
tected is not tenable under the evidence en-
file, and consequently said action of rejec-
ton Is hereby reversed ard set aside"

EXODUS OF MILL HANDS
Hundreds Of Striking Operatives Are Leaving
New Bedford.
The General Situation of the Strike
IL About the Same as a
Week Ago.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, January 81
The third week of the big strike Of the
New Bedford cotton mill employees began
With affairs in relatively the same position
as at the outset. 1t is thought the exodus
of the mill hands will continue this week.
Hundreds have already left town.
The manufacturers have not yet made the
statement as to their future policy, and it
is the general opinion that they will not
make any effort to start the mills for some
time The mill hands are apparently as de-
termined as ever to resist the reduction,
and some Of them predict that the strike
will last we'll into the summer.
Contributions from cities and towns
throughout New England and New York
state have come forward freely dur
assert that II there Is no serious disturb
ance in other big mill centers the strikers
here will be able to hold out indefinitely.

PROVIDENCE. r. +, January S1.-The

morning. 1t was also decided that they
should not gather around the mill, but
should keep in their homes and manifest
no outward interest in the attempt to start
the mill again without them.
