yiOuS Year.

Washington, Aug. 1S.-H. Clay
| Evans, commissioner ofpensions, has
prepared a statement showing the
( operations of the pension bureau dur
ing the last fiscal year as compared

port, and the statement is prepared

ment of the G. A. R., which will be
held before the report is ready. 1t
shows that the number OF pensioners

net gain of 4, 2O6 over last year The
total net loss to the roll during the
year was 43, 1856, which includes 3S,-
153 by death, S53 by re-marriage,
1882 by minors reaching the age of
16, 1,53S by failure to claim PEN
sions, and ], 800 from other causes.

gains to the rolls during the year 81
$40 were from the war with Spain.

Inconsistent Bankers.

The Minnesota bankers in conven-
tion assem- bled have denounced the
parole of the Younger brothers.
The Younger brothers were bank
robbers. They had one advantage
over other bank robbers in that they
had not been trusted with the saw
ings of men and women who had
been led to believe in their integrity.
They did not pose as first citizens of
a community, and through the ad
vantage thus gained, rob their trust
ing depositors of hard earned money

! these, II Were pardoned outright
/ and yet no one has heard OF a conven-
/ tion OF bankers criticising Mr. Nc

pardoning power
Whatever difference there may be-
! between the bank robbery OF the

Mckinley extended clemency the ad-
/ vantage is wholly with the Younger
brothers. Society can protect itself

the Younger variety. But a society
that prefers TO believe that the
great majority OF men are honest.
that relies implicitly upon the prom
ises and pretenses Of the respected
bank official, cannot protect itself
from that officials wickedne>s
These associations OF bankers have
a few peculiar habits. They are
wrought to the heights OF indigna-
ton because Of the release OF bank
robbers like these two whom the
Minnesota authorities paroled. Vet
they have not a word oi cOndemna-
ton for the pardon of the bank rob
bers like those to whom Mr.. Mckin-
ley extended clemency
In connection with the protest OF
Minnesota bankers assOcia ton
against paroling the Younger broth
eas 1t is interesting to observe that
the Younger brothers were sentenced
to prison for life and that they served
for a period OF nearly - years The
term of service OF the 81 men for
whom Mr.. Mckinley issued pardon
or communication of sentence would
aggregate 214 years These - men
served terms i'll prison sgregating
not exceeding 80 years. The two
Younger brothers were each sentenced
for life and the aggregate term serv-
ed was 30 years. The crime for
which the Younger brothers were SEN
fenced was an attempted bank rob
berry. The crimes for which the 30
men to whose opportunities Mr.. Nc
kinley yielded We're sentenced was
the stealing of Hundreds of thousands
of dollars, the exact figures of which
are not at hand. but it would not be
surprising if they amounted 10 sever
al millions
And yet this Minnesota bankers
association expresses Indignation
because of the release of the Younger
brothers while if does not condemn
the releasing of the thirty-fve offend
ers by the grace OF the republican
president
