THE PENSION QUESTION.
Facts and Figures Make Large Showing
in the Commissioners Report.

The forth coming report of the Com
missioner of Pensions for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1900, will con-
tain such an array of facts and figures
as will refute the idle clamor which has
been fomented by dishonest and greedy
pension agents against the administra-
tion of the Pension Office by Commits
sioner Evans. Instead of there being
any discrimination against the old SOL
diers there has been such lavish lib
erality that the enormous payments
now made on occount of a war ended
a generation ago raise the strongest
presumption that the pension roll has
been padded until it has swollen be-
yond all reason, and that it contains
the names not only of the deserving
veterans, whom generous and CRATE
full country delights to honor, but
thousands or even hundred of thous-
ands of the wholly unworthy.
On July l, 1900, there were on the
rolls 993, 529 pensioners, or nearly half
million more than in 1890. The num-
ber of Asa names were added to the
rolls last year, and there were dropped
due to death and other causes,
43. 334, making a net increase for the
year of 1904. The sum of $13S, ,462, 172
was paid to the pensioners last year,
and since 1865 the Government has
paid on account of pensions total of

he Will Not Qualify Negro Voters For
the Suffrage.

Many of the Republican workers, es-
pecially on the East Side, were wearing
long faces on Wednesday, and the
cause OF their woe is an announcement
alleged to have been made at the meet
ing of the City Committee Wednesday
night, that the intimate friends of Col.
Henry A. Dupont do not propose to
put up 'the stuff necessary to qualify
their negro voters.
1t costs 81 to register, and the Re-
publicans do not like it. Their con-
.ventiOn favored free registration.
For some time it has been reported
that Colonel DUPONT was weary of the
political situation, especially when it
held out no hope of reward to him.
Then again the workers are down on
Colonel DUPONT because they think
he has been the one man who has held
out against ]. Edward Addicks.
The Dupont leaders informed the
friends of ex-senator Higgins, William
S. Hillies and Horace Greely Knowles
that they would be expected to furnish
"the stuff" and that the management
of the party is ''up to them"
1t begins to look as if the opponents
of Mr.. Addicks would not have much
money on which to operate.
