MARTIN BERGEN's CRIME.
Baseball Catcher Kills Wife, Two
Children and Himself.

BROOKFIELD, Mass, Jan. 19.-Martin
Bergen, the catcher of the Boston National
League ball team, killed his wife and two
children and committed suicide at his home
here to-day. An was the implement
used in taking the life of Mrs. Bergen and
one of the children, boy. while a razor
was employed to cut the throat Of the
other child, a little girl, and of the man
himself. 1t. is thought the deed was due
to insanity. 1t had been suspected for
some time that Bergen was a victim of
mental arrangement. In fact, some of his
actions in connection with his baseball
managers last season led to the supposi-
ton at that time. The crime was discov-
cred by the neighbors, who found the body
of Beorgen and the girl lying on the
kitchen floor. Further investigation showed
that Mrs. Bergen and the little boy also
had been killed. Their bodies lay upon a
bed in the chamber. Bergen was twenty
nine years of age. His wife was of about
the same age, the little girl was eight or
nine years of age, and the boy a little
Younger.

PENSION BILL PASSED.
Provision Inserted That May Deprive
cSharks" of Their Prey.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19-The pension
appropriation bill, carrying s1i5.24 ESQ, was
passed by the House to-day. 1t was made
the vehicle 'of an attack on the commits
sioner of pensions by Mr. Curtis. Kansas
Republican, who was succeeded by Mr..
Lentz and Mr.. Norton, of Ohio. and Mr..
Robinson, of Indiana, and other Northern
Democrats. All inveighed against the lack
of liberality in the administration of the
pension laws. The commissioner was ably
defended by score of members from
both sides of the House. Mr.. Mahon
charged that the assault on him had been
instigated by sharks of this city who were
robbing the old soldiers. AS a result of
the latter's disclosure a clause was put in
the bill by unanimous consent empowering
the commissioner, in his discretion to
withhold the fees of attorneys of record
in pension cases where he was satisfied
that the attorneys had not prepared the
cases under their personal supervision.
At the opening Of the session. Mr.. Bar
ney, who was in charge of the bill. made
a general statement of its contents Mr..
Barney said the commissioner of
pensions estimated that the amount
for pensions during the coming year
would largely decrease. but that
owing TO the influx Of claims on account
of the Spanish war he did not deem 1t
wise to reduce the general appropriation
this year. There were 5000 Spanish war

thought that five or six millions would
cover these claims.
Mr.. Curtis. of Kansas, assailed some OF
the rulings of the commissioners Of pen
sions, tracing their origin to the start
ling. false and fictitious charge made in
ers were on the rolls
eff the present commissioner is not con-
Quoting the Office properly, is not the rem
edy in the hands of the administration?
asked Mr.. Bartlett, of Georgia.
81 do not believe the President indorses
the acts OF the commissioner" replied Mr..
Curtis. AZ do not believe ne knows what
is going on"
WAS not the commissioner a soldier of
the Union?"
''They say he was" replied Mr.. Curtis.
II do not believe he ever carried mus
ket.'
Here Mr.. 'Grosvenor intervened to say
that Commissioner Evans was a private
soldier in a Wisconsin regiment and later
joined the army of the Cumberland. Be-
fore the close of the war he was made a
clerk in the quartermaster's office at Chat
tanooga.

William Alden Smith, ito the employees in
the Pension Office who out of SYM
pathy with the old soldiers, but who are
protected in their positions by the civil
service law?"
'I have been told that that was true,
replied Mr.. Curtis, ''but the commissioner
of pensions has the power to remedy that
condition" He inveighed especially against
the ruling which deprives widows OF the
benefit of the dependent act of 1890 If they
have an income of 500 year.
Mr.. Mahon, Of Pennsylvania, paid his re-
spects to the pension shark lawyers in
this city who robbed the old soldiers. He
was in favor if indorsing the commissioner
of pensions in the pending bill.
When the bill was reported to the House
the following amendment was unanimous
ly agreed to: provided, that the commits
sioner of pensions shall furnish all necessa-
ry blanks to claimants, and that said com.
missioner may, in his discretion, refuse tc

isfied that said attorney failed to prepare

ion and did not discharge his full duty tc

The bill then passed and at 4:05 p. m
the House adjourned.
