PENSION DECISIONS
BY THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF THE DEPAl
MENT OF THE INTERIOR.

| bt AbbibTANT bEChETAhr Of DErhhi
MBNT OF THE INTERIOR.
Commissioner of PensioDs-Medica
Referee-The commissioner of Pen
sions is not bound by the opinion OF
the Medical Referee or the boards OF
examining surgeons. The final rat.
ing Of claim is not the act Of the
commissioner Of pensions, who bases
his findings upon all the evidence 10
the case. using as means to that end
all Of the various agencies placed at
his disposal by law, potent among
which are the facts and opinions OF
the boards of examining surgeons and
the judgment Of the medical referee
after that official has reviewed the
medical evidence as required by law.
Evidence Presumption of DEATH
Line Of Dutv-It IL shown by the re.
cords of the War Department, and
evidence Of comrades, relatives, and
neighbOrs, that the soldier partici-
pated In the battle OF Guntown, Miss.
June 10, 1864, was officially reported
"missing In action" from that date.
and has not since been seen or heard
from by his family. former friends, or
the comrades who haye testified in his
case.
Held: The evidence is sufficient to
show soldiers death in line Of duty,
on June 10, 1864, and bis mother is en-
titled to pension.
Disability. - When the evidence
presented by claimant Is sufficient
to Salty the mind OF candid and i'm
partial person that a pensiOnable dis
ability from some abscure cause ex-
lists, although no physical signs OF IL
can be discovered by the examining
surgeons, pension should be allowed
at rate proportiOnate to the degree
Of disability proved.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Under the
act of June q, 1890, a person non COM
DOS mentis without committee or
guardian, may file a valid declaration
for pension by competent person as
next friend, but before payment a
guardian or committee must be ap-
pointed, and when qualified to act the
pension should be paid to him In &C
cordance With the practice under the
general law.
Fraud and Mistake - Reimburse
ment-The allowance OF pension to
claimant under the general law was
not the result of fraud practiced by
such claimant upon the government,
but as the result Of an error Of judg-
ment based on insufficient evidence
and failure to require more evidence
for which the pensioner was not re-
sponsible, and the withholding of his
pension granted under the act of June
q, 1890, to reimburse the Government
for the pension paid under the gen.
eral law was error.

$25 FOR
CONTEMPT

There must be something of the
old-time fire of Colonel John S.
Mosby, the old confederate cavalry
officer and guerrilla leader, flowing
in the veins of his son, B. c. Mosby,
a well known attorney of this city
something of the fire which make
men dare.
This is an outrageous decision"
Attorney Mosby exclaimed after
Judge Huneke had rendered judicial
judgment on the case of M. S. Bent
ley VS.. ID. l.. Huntington, which de-
cision was favorable to the defend
ant, while Mosby represents the
plaintiff.
1t was simply a case of $25 for
contempt of court from Judge HUI
neke right away quick, and the
suddenness of the accusation and
the swiftness which overlook the
accuser nearly took the breath of
the attorneys of Spokane from their
respiratory organs.
The bench volunteered no state
ment other than the deliverance of
the fine, but among the lawyers of
the city the scene is considered to
have been not only unusual but
courageous" on the part of the
pract1ctlOner at the bar.

came to this country for brief
stay three summers ago. That was
her only visit since she became a
member of the English nobility.
Gossip has had it in London for
the last year that she would seek
a divorce from her ducal husband
but both the duchess and Marlbor
ough have persistently denied this
rumor 1t would seem as though
inheritance might almost rule such
a course. Her father and mother
were divorced a short time before
she married, her mother becoming
the third wife of "Ollie" Belmont:
Her father, William X. Vanderbilt,
married in London couple of
years back Mrs. Sands-Rutherford

latter.

The place is made still more
memorable by the presence of

boulder on which stood old Chief
Turkey Foot as he rallied his de-

The foreign commerce of China,
with 400,000,000 Industrious people
(but no railways), has grown but
$16O 900 since 1870; that of In
dia, with 300 10000 600 people. and a
system of railways, has grown
$25S,00O 600; and that of Japan.
with only 45,000,000 and a system
of railways, has grown $215, 900 900
And how does the United States
stand to share in this commercial
prize of the orient?
All the countries and islands of
Asia and Oceanica now import
buy from the rest of the world
about as much as the United States
exports annually. Our share in
that market at present is about 8
per cent.
But the United States is better
situated than any occidental coun-
try to share in, and increase that
trade.
At present the United States sells
to the orient about 500. 1000, 900
worth of goods a year, while Eu-
rope sells $60O,OO0.00O. But the rec
ords of the past 10 years show that
we are gaining much more rapidly
in this trade than any other nation.
The imports of China, Japan and
Australia from all European coun-
tries combined showed an increase
in 1903 of but 5000 900 as COM
pared with 1900, while the increase
in importations by those countries
from the United States alone in the
same period was $40 100000, thus
showing that our gain in their i'm
port trade was actually greater
than the gain of all Europe COM
bined
Our purchases, too, from the
orient have grown since 1870 from
less than $32 100000 to $3.50 900 600
in 1904. We take from them large
quantities of raw silk, tea, hemp,
send them raw and manufactured
cotton, mineral oils, manufactured
iron and steel, -four, meats and rice.
No country has the natural ad-
vantages which are possessed by
the United States for securing this
oriental trade, in the command
which American merchants have of
the Pacific ocean. Our national
frontage on the Pacific is 1880
nautical miles. while that of the
United Kingdom is 10000, of Russia
5000, Japan 5000 and China about
5000.

beginning the construction of the

world 100000; yet the commerce
Of the orient is but a paltry 3d. 0O,-
100000, while that of other parts
Of the world is S19,000,00O,000.
SO it is seen that the average
per capita commerce in the orient
is SO a year, while the average per
capita for the rest of the world is
S27 a year.
The trouble has been lack of rail
roads. This lack is soon to be sup
plied-is being supplied.
The orient has less than one
tenth of the worlds railways.
though it has more than one-half
the worlds population and a third
of its area.
1t is interesting to note that the
two countries in this orient which
have most railways-Japan and In
dia-have the largest increase of
trade. India has about $4,000 miles
of railway. Japan has about $500
miles of railway.

unfavorably with the general run

employees to regard their economic

The street car department con-

For this the men receive medical
attention, and if they become inca
pacitated through sickness they
draw $3.50 a week for the first six
months, 81. 40 a week for the second
six months, and Sl.20 a week for
the second year. If a member of
the society dies his family receives
$3.50. and if a members wife dies
he obtains $2i. The department
makes good its contribution to the
sick fund by stopping the pay of all
men unable to work because of i'll
ness, and 1t also retrenches by al
lowing the men a yeaerly vacation
of only five days with salary
The men of Glasgow's street car
