BONUSPAYMENT DELAY
CAUSES |NC|P|ENT RIOT
About l 500 Men Are in Line When
Glass Doors Give Way and
Many Rush Up Stairs.

An incipient riot occurred at the Of
and c streets. yesterday afternoon as
a result OF delay in paying the bonus
of $50 to discharged soldiers OF the
Army.
About 1900 men were in line and
the payments were not made quickly
enough to suit those in waiting. They
grumbled and made various endeavors
to hasten their progress to the pay
masters desks. with the result that
considerable confusion occurred. and
ali available watchmen were hurried
~ summoned 10 restore order and
straighten the line.
The glass front doors were broken
down and the crowd swarmed up
stairs in such numbers that the or
ficials feared for the safety of the
building. With the assistance of a
detachment of military police and Il
small squad of local police the ex-
cited crowd finally was got undei
control and forced back into line.
Only Few Get Pay.
Owing to the confusion that con-
tinued to prevail the officials wei .
able to make payments to only d few
of the applicants.
Col. Smith, the zone finance officer,
and his assistants admit that there
has been a great rush Of applicants
for the bonus. but said they were
making q hundred per cent effort to
meet the demand They said that nee
essarily there will be delays in max
Ing immediate payments to large
number of applicants. Each case is
taken up in its turn, and late corners
taking places near the end of the
line may have to wait hours and pos
sibly days, before their cases are
reached.
II was suggested as decidedly in the
interest OF all concerned that where
possible the entire business be con-
Quoted by correspondence. The off,
cials say that applications received by
mail can be handled much more
quickly than when made in person.
When these applications are accom-
panied by the necessary papers, the
checks are made out and mailed at
once.

As Constance sat before the IRE her
thoughts flew forward to the coming
dance to be given In honor OF Dick
G.. who had Just returned from
"over there" and then backward to
her last meeting with Dick.
1t was the night before he had left
for camp and her mother was giving
party in honor of Constance's eight
eenth birthday. Early In the evening
Dick had drawn her aside and told her
that he wished to leave the party
early In order to spend as much time
as possible with his mother, but asked
her permission to come again before
he left. There was a certain closeness
to his hand-clasp, aud In his eyes, as
he gazed into hers, there was pc
culiar intensity that left her startled
and tingling TO her finger tips, happy
but too breathless to speak

adise, Jack H came TO claim her

excuse to get away and stop the noou

had she ever seen or heard from him
since. Why had he not writtenf sure
ly he must have seen that she had ieft
him for the dance with Jack only TO
cover her confusion. But the fact re-
mained-he had not cared enough Tor
her to even write. And Constance

II was not until late In the evening
that Dick was able to secure dance

was half over, utterly oblivious Of her

out TO the cool veranda.

whispered as soon as they were alone.
Once more Constance felt the same
emptiness in the region where her
lungs ought to be, although she could
hear herself fairly wheezing. Once
more she was struck dumb. though all
sorts of bright French retorts chased
through her mind, but refused to cross
her lips. she gave one big stifled
gasp, however, as Dick continued:
