100000 AWAIT PENSIONS
BUREAU FACES GREATEST CRISIS
 IN ITS HISTORY.
Departments Funds Run Out Because
 of Congress Delay In Making Appropriation.

Washington, Aug. 15.-The pension bureau faced the greatest financial crisis in its history, as the result of the lack of funds to pay pensioners. The San Francisco agency has bal. ance of exictly cents and Detroit only cents. Reports from all the agencies received at the bureau tell the same story of no money for the veterans and their dependents on the nations pension list
 This condition is due to the delay of congress in passing the pension appro- priation bill. The extension of the old appropriation bill for a l5-day period so that one-twenty-fourth of last years appropriation might be used to pay less than half of the S15,000,000 due on Aug. f, has left 100000 pensioners unpaid at Indianapolis, Knoxville, Louisville, New York, Philadelphia and Topeka. There is no hope for them until congress acts.
 Acting Pension Agent Fountain, at New York, reported to Commissioner Davenport that the conditions there are very serious, as many army and navy pensioners are destitute and that the withholding of their pension money is almost criminal
 The funds available are S7.79 at

Weightiest Ever Filed in the State of California.

It was against the Santa Fe railroad and the mere complaint comprised 13,000 pages of separate charges of alleged violation of the long and short haul clause of the state constitution. Piled up, paper on paper, the lawsuit stood more than four feet high and required the combined efforts of sev- eral strong men to move it about The weight was about 300 pounds.
 The suit was brought by the Cali fornia Adjustment Co of San Fran cisco, to which the 16,000 claims had been assigned by several hundred shippers. The entire amount involved is about S50,000

 There had been rumors circulated that if the posthumous heir were a boy contest would be instituted by Colonel Astor's widow, Mrs. Made line Force Astor, to secure greater wealth for her son. This matter will be determined later.
 Preparations for the arrival of the millionaire baby were made the day before, when MT. and Mrs. Wm. Force, parents of Mrs. Astor. were summoned to the Fifth avenue mansion
 Dr. Cragin has been in constant at tendance upon Mrs. Astor since week before last In making official an nouncement of the birth. Dr. Cragin said that the baby, as we'll as Mrs. Astor. was in excellent condition.
 At the time Dr. Cragin said he did not look for any complications, but that he expected the young mother and her baby to continue doing we'll.
 Parents Feared Results.
 There has been considerable fear among the relatives of Mrs. Astor as to the outcome, because of her phy- sical sufferings and mental stress re- sulting from the disaster to the ri tanic, on which she was passenger with her husband
 Unusual interest from the social, financial and legal viewpoint attaches 10 the status of the new child. There is a possibility that the birth of the boy may mean legal contest for the redistribution of the $50. 900 Astor estate. Under the terms of the Astor will the sum of s3.000,000 was set aside for each child born, other than the children, Vincent and Muriel, of whom Mrs, Ava Willing Astor was the mother.

 Sheldon had further testified that Qdell had come to Bliss to see about raising money for the state cam paign, and that later Hartman and Bliss got together about s250,000 which was handed over to the State Committee and never went to the National Committee"
 Chairman Clapp Introduced the subject of the Hartman contribution by asking the former Governor what he knew of Hartman having stated in a letter to Sidney Webster that Roosevelt asked Hartman to come to Washington during the campaign of 1904.
 $2o0,00o Additional Raised.
 Senator Clapp asked a second time of Odell if he was sure the Hartman contribution was made through the National Committee.
 Absolutely" said MT. Odeil
 Are you sure MT. CortelyoL was a party to the arrangement to give to New York state s500,000?"

 In addition to contributions from the National Committee Odell said the State Committee that year collected about S200,000 from other sources. He could not remember who contributed to the latter amount but was sure none of the trusts were contributors.
