Most assuredly he will, but in his
present state 1 do not care to approach
him on the subject. There will be
plenty of time for that, however, after
the challenge is issued. My new boat
must be between fifteen and twenty
minutes faster than the Shamrock and
she must be an Improvement on the
Columbia, which means almost a mir
acIe for she is a marvellous boat.
IF any other yachtsmen want to
challenge for the cup, | shall willingly
step aside, but in any event / shall
stand willing to give every assistance
in my power to the man who tries to
lift the cup. The Shamrock and my
crew will be at his disposal, so that he
can have a. trial horse whose powers
are known. If my challenge is the one
accepted l shall have the Shamrock in
commission and will use her in tuning
up the new boat"

MIR. EVANS SPEAKS.
Says He Is Administering Pension
Laws rs Congress Made Them.

PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 6.-H. Clay
Evans. commissioner Of pensions. in speak
ing of the pension question to-day said in
part:
This great question is one about which
much has been written and said in the past,
so / presume the future will be productive
of much discussion. 1 am believer in the
generous giving of pensions to the defend
ers of this nation, and it's my duty as an
officer, to administer the laws as laid down
by Congress. In the year 1878 the amount
paid in round numbers was SIG, 500 600; new
laws were enacted and in the year 1881 the
law known as the 'Arrearages act was put
into practice, so that in 1889 there were paid
for pensions $751; 900. and in 1890, June o.
the new law, as it's known, was passed
and during the next three years-'91, '92 and
'93-there were over 10000 new names added
to the roll. anG in 1898 the amount paid for
pensions was almost $157, 900 900. In 1889 the
average pension was sl3l.1S yearly, while in
1899 the average, under the same law, is
Sl60.1o. or about % per cent. higher. This is
accounted for by reason of increased iisa-
bilities, provision for which increased pay
ment was made in the act of $780,
IT becomes my duty TO administer the
laws as Congress makes them. 1 admit
there are inequalities in pensioning and /
have pointed out some of these in nv an
nual reports; and i will take great pleasure
in commencing to Congress legislation that
Will correct such. i am anxious that the
soldiers should be treated to the full gen.
erosity of this great Nation. The laws are
also indefinite in some cases. especially as
10 widows pensions under the act of June
q. 1890, and i trust this can be corrected
by an amendment to the law at the comin;;
session of Congress-"
