PENSION DECISIONS
BY THE ASSISTANT SECRETARY
OF THE DEPARTMENT.
OF THE INTERIOR.

Washington, Jan. 29.-Accidental In
juries While the government is re-
sponsible for injuries that occur to
soldiers by reason of the position in
which it places them, the duties to
which it assigns them. and the weap-
ons or other implements it places in
their hands; yet, it is not responsible
for accidents happening to them from
causes which have no necessary re1a-
ton to the service.
It is presumed that the government
supplies its troops with all weapons
needed for offense and for defense
against the enemy; and If they
choose to carry other weapons they
do SO without authority, very often in
contravention of authority: and al
ways at their own risk. Injuries SO in
CURED are outside the line Of duty,
and not pensionable.

LAWYER BLOCKs wendell SUITS.
Nc wants His Pay Befere Family DtYer.
ences Are Settled.

Justice Hendrick in the Supreme Court
named yesterday j. Sidney Bernstein IA
referee to inquire into the claim Hled with
the court by Lawyer William l.. Snyder
for services rendered Miss Georgianna
q. r. Wendell. who Is said to be living in
Kiel. Germany.
Miss Wendell and her brother and sis
ters, John J. Wendell and Rebecca, Mary
and Josephine Wendell. nave had ron
siderable litigation In the Supreme Court,
which they are now anxious to discontinue.
John J. Wendell lives at Irvington on the
Hudson, and Miss Georgianna lived with
him for some years. She inherited $3.50, 900,
IL 10 said, as her share Of their fathers es-
tate. and was known around Irvington
for her eccentric habits. She prsctised
the kneipp cure on the lawns, and often
took baths with her clothes on. She had
other strange habits, which caused her
brother and sisters to have her committed
as insane.
Lawyer Snyder defended her at the in
quiry before a Sheriff's jury, and after q
verdict had been found adjudging her in
competent he had the proceedings re-
opened and quashed because Of improper
procedure. John J. Wendell had been sp-
pointed committee OF her estate mean
while. and when she was released she
retained Snyder to begin two suits against
her brother and sisters, one for the ac-
counting OF the estate Of their father and
the other for $50 900 for false arrest and
Imprisonment.
These suits hung fire. and some time
ago Snyder learned that y settlement had
been reached by which Misc Wendell was
to get about $50 900 from her relatives.
he wrote her reminding her tina abe had
promised him 81 1000 as a retaining fee and
one-third OF any money she might recover.
The letter was mailed to MISS Wendel's
city address, 442 Fifth avenue, but Snyder
got no answer, and learned subsequently
that his client had gone to Germany, where
she is now residing, he believes. When
he heard that an application was TO be
made by the wendels for leave to enter
orders OF 6i~scontinuance in the two suits in
which Mi a Wendell had retained him Snyder
entered a protest. n he appeared yester-
day before Justice Hendrick in opposition
to the application.
Snyder thinks that ths least he should
get is 81 900 and one-third 81 the $50 900
she expected to get in damages, about
81, eoS in all. Snyder says that he wasted
a great deal OF energy and hard work on
Miss Wendell, and should be well paid for
his labors.
Thompson a Koss, for the Wendsis, ar
gued in reply that Snyder's work had not
amounted to much. and that the discon-
~tinuances should be entered regardless of
his claim. Justice Hendrick declined to
take this view, however, and said that
he would await the report OF the referee
before determining just what Snyder should
GET
