Keen interest is felt in naval
circles in the result of the trans
Atlantic cruise of the Kearsarge.
which leaves Portsmouth Wednes
day for Frenchman's Bay, coast of
Maine. Captain Hemphill has
been directed to make the cruise a
test of Kearsarge's long-cruising
speed, and it is exxcted probably
the highest record for an Americau
battleship of the Kearsarge's type
will be established on this trip.
It is estimated that 1 51 H.I tons of
coal will bring the Kcarsarge across
at l: knots an hour within ten
days, provided that no rough
weather shall be encountered.
The Kearsarge mode a remarkable
record in the trip across to Kiel
from New York. Indeed, for her
type and tonnage this record was
the liest ever made. The total dis
tance across, 14"i miles from New
York lo The Needles, was tun at
the high sliced of lfi.112 miles an
hour. The triji was made without
a stop, the speed running up in

Acting Secretary of the Interior
says: ' It must be clear to the
capual observer that . . . Congress
intends to provide iensinns for the
very pcrsonB who rendered 30 day's
service in these wars, the act
does not limit its provisions to
those who served and were dis
charged under the immediate mili
tary authority of the United States
only, but its provision clearly ex
tends to those who served and were
discharged under the other author
ities named in the act." "
Under the decision of the Acting
Secretary of the Interior, rendered
today, dozens if not hundreds of
applications for pension under the
Indian War veteran act of the last
Congress, heretofore rejected by
the Pension Office, will be passed
to issue. The Secretary has over
ruled the Pension Office and lib
erally construed the law in favor
of the survivors of the Oregon and
Washington wars.
Commissioner Ware, upon a tech
nicality, has all along been reject
ing claims of Oregon and Wash
ington veterans "because they fail
ed to show muster into the service
of the United States or pay by the
United States" basing his action
upon a superfluous elaus ot the
act of 1902.
While yet in Congress, Represent
ative Moody apjiealed from his
ruling, contending that the Indian
War act of last year was purely
an extension to the survivors of
the early Northwestern wars of the
provision of the lilackluiwk ension
act of 1X92, and as such it was not
essential to show service as United
States troups or pay by the Gov
ernment. Acting Secretary Miller
upholds the ap)ical of Mr. Moody-
saying:
"It must lie clear to llie most
casual olwerver that if this act
means anything it means that
Congress intended to provide pen
sions for the very class of persons
who rendered 30 days' service in
these wars. The act dues not limit
" Pn,vi"ion u ti,me who lrv,',1
wm' discharge.! under the
immediate military authority of
ll'e United States only, but its
proviskms dearly extends to those
who served and were discharged
under the oilier authorities named
iu the act."
By this it meant men who were
enlisted and served for 30 days in
territorial organizations or in the
home guards an participated in
tlm early Indian Wars. Hereto
fore the Pension Office has, been
taking advantage of very technic
ality to delay action on. Indian
War pension claims and only
veterans who could show pay by
the United States in any direct
nianner were allowed pensions.
The vast majority of the applica
tions were turned, down, under the
Ireision of the Secretary, which
establishes a precedent from where
there can lie no appeal.
Many claims heretofore rejected
will be reconsidered and pensions
will be flowed. The Secretary
inteiprets the law inTits liberal
sense, and holds that, Inasmuch as
Congress intended the pensions
should be paid, he has instructed
the Pension Office to jddfce no un
necessary obstacles in the path,

Information has reached here,
from the interior counties, Grant
especially, that a desperate war is
on lietween the coast buyers and
the cattle-owners. This war,
which was jtartedabout three
weeks ago, has reached a point
where it might prove a serioua
blow to the stockmen. It is all be
cause the buyers wish to purchase
the cattle at a small price says the
the Telegram.
The feed conditions this year are
extremely bad, and the buyers are
thoroughly informed of the pre
vailing conditions. The cattle
owners arc holding doggedly on for
better money, notwithstanding the
discouraging outlook for feed, while
the buyers are "display ing very
little activity, confident prices will
take a sharp fall. "
Whether either or both sides are
determined in their stand, or
merely bluffing, It is difficult to
ascertain. The "bears" seem to
have the best of the deal, from the
fact that the ranges are rapidly
drying up, with twice the number
of cattle that the pastures can ac
commodate. There is no hav in
ight.
ArounJ ilieold mining camp of
Maryville large bands of cattle are
being herded, to await the time
when they can be out into' the
wheat fields after the crop is har
vested. This will afford only a
temporary relief. When the feed
of these fields is gone, the cattle
will have to be sold or moved out.
That is the opinion of one of the
prominent buyers who is in hero
from the Coast. He backs his re
marks by saying that stock will be
selling in that district later in the
Fallat25a head.'

This dog learned-- thing or two
very quickly. A family in Tiffin,
O., had moved from the old home,
but rented the house, . furnished
throughout, the new tenant being
an elderly lady. For some reason
the family dog was "let", with the
furniture. Now the new occupant
of the home liked tosit iu a particu
larly comfortable chair in the par
lor, but as the dog was also as fond
of the chair she frequently found
him in possession. Being rather
afraid of the dog she did not dare
to drive him out, and therefore used
to go to the window and ca II: "Cats."
The dog would then rush to the
window and the lady would calmly
take possession of the chair. One
day the dog entered the room and
found the lady in possession. He
trotted to the window and barked
excitedly. The lody got up to see
what was the matter, and the dog
instantly seated himself in the
chair.
