SENATE TO PASS PENSION BILL
Will Adopt Compromise Between Sew
eral Pending Measures.

Washington, Dec 16.-Congress will
pass bill at this session granting an
increase Of pensions to survivors of the
armies Of the Mexican and civil wars.
The house passed few days ago
what is known as the Sherwood service
pension bill This bill. the McCumber
service age bill introduced last year,
and the Kenyon age-pension bill will
be used as a basis for a measure which
will be drafted by the senate pension
committee. The senate undoubtedly
will adopt the bill favorably reported
by the committe and out Of the con-
ference Of the two houses will emerge
an act which probably will receive the
approval Of the president and become
law.
The Sherwood pension bill. it is esti-
mated. would increase the pension ex-
penditures s30.000,000 the first year and
$60,000,000 the second year. The cost
would decrease the third and become
gradually less in succeeding years.
That Is to say. if this bill were to
become a law the government would
have to disburse about $1S0.0O0.000 dur
ing the next fiscal year and 100000
during the following fiscal year. The tTe-
mendous burden this would entail was
responsible for decision by the presi-
dent to veto the Sherwood bill II 1t
had been passed by the senate.

the Sherwood bill. Senator McCumber,
chairman OF the pension committee.
said today. he intends to study the
question Of pension increase during the
Christmas holidays and after congress
reassembles to hold sessions of his
committee for the purpose of devising
plan which will give an increase Of
pension to the old soldiers and at the
same time pay due regard to the con-
dition of the treasury.
The Sherwood bill pensions soldier
who served ninety days at SIS month.
six months at $40 per month. nine
months at $25 per month. and one year
or over. $50 per month. The chairman
Of the house pension committee asked
the pension bureau for the estimated
cost of the house bill. but owing to the
sections which exclude soldiers with a
yearly income of $1,000 or over from
the benefits of the act the pension
bureau refused to make an estimate.
The number OF soldiers in the civil
war on the pension roll on July l last
was 529,SS4. The aggregate amount OF
pensions paid to them during the year
was S1O1,425, 534. The number of deaths
during the year ending July l last was
35.243. The number of soldiers who will
be available for pensions on Jan. is
estimated to be 100000. For all wars
the pension bill of the nited States is
s153.6S6, 900. With new legislation a
certainty, there Is bound to be even a
larger expenditure for some years to
come.
In spite of the additional legislation
to be enacted there will be no cessation

Of the practice Of passing special meas
ures. Theee bills. fortunately, do not
increase the pension expenditures.
They merely place on the rolls new
names and new increases to take the
place of those removed by death.
1t Is estimated that the aggregate
cost Of reprisal pension bills is never
more than half a million dollars an
nually and this amount is more than
offset by the total OF the pensions which
lapse.
It Is altogether likely the president
will approve a bill placing the pension
system upon n more satisfactory and
equitable basis. There has never been
any doubt as to the presidents sympa-
thy for the old soldiers, but as the head
Of the nation 1t is his duty to see that
expenditures shall not exceed the
revenue. For this reason any pension
bill presented to him for approval VIII
be carefully studied and If 1t shall APP

be met without difficulty he will give

Nelus and Gossip

That millions are wasted under the

This has added fuel to the fire of criti-
cism to which the plan for universal
education has been exposed since its
inception.
Sir John said among other things:
''The majority of those who care for
the welfare of the people and are ex-
perts in education consider that the
greater part of this money under the
present system Is wasted and might as

Returns Verdict Contrary to instrue-
tions of Court.

tl0nS OF SouTSs
st. Louis, Dec. 16.-The striking
jury in James E. Withrow's court
triumphed late yesterday when it re-
turned verdict for the plaintiff in
the McDermott will case which was
contrary to the instructions of the
judge delivered four days ago anG
which the judge had to accept.
The court announced, however, thai
on the motion of either side the YER
dict would be set aside.
A slight change in the judges Ian.
guage in sending the jury back to de.
liberate yesterday opened the way fol
a verdict.
THE judge had kept asking US II
we had signed a verdict" said Fore
man H. c. Hartman, after the jury
| was discharged.
He told us to go back and DELHI
crate until we reached verdict"
Mrs Mary harrington had sued Rev
Father John White, executor Of the es-
tate of her mother, Bridget McDer-
mott, charging that he had exercised
undue influence over Mrs McDermott
The court held that insufficient evil
dence had been introduced by the
plaintiff. and Tuesday directed the
jury TO return a VeCulCL lOT TIE Oe
PENDANT. This the twelve men refused
to do, saying they would stand or
their rights as American citizens"
The jury came into court and the
following finding was handed to Judge
Withrow:

plaintiff for the reason that, from the
circumstancial evidence of witnesses
we believe there was undue influence
exerted over Bridget McDermott prior
to and at the time she executed the
testament in question when 1t was not

The judge sent for law books and
with the foreman of the jury, looked
at them and then said:
Gentlemen Of the jury, altho your
verdict is in violation of the orders
of this court. under the rulings Of the
supreme court it becomes my duty to
