CHICAGO, June S. There has been considerable discussion I as to whether Secretary Gresham's pension has been discontinued, whether there is any back pension due him, and whether bis widow can continue to draw the per month which was allowed him for wounds received before Atlanta In JulyJ 184. Gen. W.

B. Anderson, who is at the head of the Chicago pension paying department, refused to give out any Information; about the matter today, on the ground that he was no permitted to give such information to other than pensioners, but it is learned from other sources that the late Secretary of State stopped his pension nearly three years ago, and had not since drawn it. He did not, however, surrender it, and his widow will be entitled to draw the back pension, which will amount to about ftl.Ouo and the S3U a month for the rest of her life. 50 EEFUXDS WILL 15E NECESSARY The United States Supreme Conit Holds that the Tariff Act Went Into Effect on 1 the Day of IU Promulgation.

The Supreme Court to-day. through Chief Justice Fuller. 'expressed its opinion that the tariff act oi lou went into elect on the 28th day of August, the date at which was pro-' mulgated by the Department of State as a law, without the President's signature, and not on the 1st day of August, the date fixed in the act itself for taking effect. The question arose over the assessment of duty made by fj Collector Kilbreth at New-York upon anifnvoice of cotton laces Imported by Burr kc Hardwlcke, and entered for consumption Aug. 8.

The rate was fixed by the Collector at CO per cent, ad valorem, under the act of lSDo; by the act of 18U4, the duty on the merchandise was per cent. i The Board of Gdr.eral Appraisers sustained the Collector in his rating, but the Circuit Court reversed their action, holding that the law of 18114 controlled.

June 3. Congressman Paul J. Sorg of Middletown to-day said: There Is no need the Democratic Party being a hurry td hold a convention. I would tavor a convention held not earlier than the latter part of August." "Who will be nominated?" 1 have not the slightest idea." Will you be a candidate? Not under any circumstances. Last year I went through two hard political fights.

That is enough for any man in so short a space of time." This positive declaration of Congressman Sorg Is taken to mean that ex-Gov. Cam El-bell will emulate the example of Gen.

Minister ot Finance. IT WAS K0T A McKlSLET BOOM Politiciang Derive Much Amnrement from tie Ohio Governors Yisit to Brook-j ljn Mr. Moore as Escort, The politicians hereabout are amlllne- over the failure of Charles A. Moore to start a McKlnley boom in Brooklyn on Decoration Day. Mr, Moore is a popular, good-natured man, and Is President of the Mon-taukj Club of Brooklyn.

Perhaps If he had known of Bome of the bad luck that befell Major McKlnley earlier on May 30, in he would not have ventured to close the day with a boom across the river. Decoration Day brought a succession of misfortunes to the Governor of Ohio. In the morning he stood for two hours In the broiling sun on the reviewing stand, Madison Square. It got so hot that he was corn-pelled to return to the hotel before the review was over. In the afternoon, at Grant's tomb, a melancholy accident happened to Major Mq-Ktnley'a hat He deposited hia handsome his lucky hat In a chair, safe, as he thought, from tribulations.

Unluckily, ex-Presldent Benjamin Harrison did not observe the McKlnley hat. He sat on it and in it When Mr. Harrison was lifted out of Major McKiniey's hat, there was little of left, I It was completely wrecked. This was a double misfortune, for the reason that Mr. McKlnley valued it as a treasure.

He hall worri it when Inaugurated Governor of Ohio. Some say he even regarded It as- a hat likely to be worn when he should be nominated for the Presidency. Several thousand invitations had been issued to the Montauk Club reception, by some of the members who were anxious to boom the Ohio Governor. President Moore is the man who openly managed the affair. He claimed there was no politics in it.

Invitations were scattered promiscuously, tD Democrats, Republicans, Independents, and Prohibitionists. It is said the Montauk Club friends of Major McKlnley drew him overi to Brooklyn by representing that he would be greeted by a great popular uprising, i Major McKlnley and President Moore went over the bridge In an open barouche. There was no one at the Brooklyn entrance of the bridge to greet the distinguished guest. Gov. McKlnley was observed to be looking from one side of the street to the other as he was driven along.

He may have expected to be received on the route with, a brass band ana crowds. No one seemed to notice the Major. There was no cheering, no lifting of hats. By the time the open barouche had reached the City Hall, good-natured and sanguine Mr. Moore began to get nervous.

Despite the heat, he was chilly, as though there was frost on the sidewalk. On a corner near the City Hall two Brooklyn newspaper men were standing. Mr. Moore espied them. He recognized them.

Partly rising in the barouche he tipped his hat profoundly. Major McKlnley also bowed and tipped his hat. The two newspaper reporters, being men of breeding, bowed in return, and lifted their hats. Who can that be?" asked one reporter of the other. The big man Is Charles A.

Moore, but I don't know hia companion," was the reply. Then they both recollected the Montauk Club reception. 1 Well, well." they ejaculated, in chorus, as the barouche rolled away, that must be McKlnley." It was not an ovation," said Jacob Worth, Epeaking of the incident, "but it was recognition. We didn't get skunked." i There were not over four or five hundred persons at the reception at the Montauk Club, Five or six years ago, when Major McKlnley visited Brooklyn, the people unhitched his horses and dragged his carriage through the streets. MAI) DOG IX A SCIIOOLHOUSE Janitor llahn Had Presence of Mind and Kept the D02 Locked Up Until the Pupils Had Gone.

A yellow and white fox terrier, which gave signs of rabies, was shot yesterday soon after noon in Grammar School No. 82, First Avenue and Seventieth Street. Only Janitor Hahn and Frank J. Coleman, Principal of the Boys Grammar Department, knew there was a mad dog in the building. Janitor Hahn saw the dog Just after the morning session had begun.

It was on the sidewalk, in First Avenue. The janitor thought the dog was thirsty, and carried out a basin of water. The dog refused to drink, and began snapping" at everything in its way. The janitor, thinking it would go away, went about his work, aa usual. A confectioner, who has a store near the Bchopl building, kept, watch of the animal and saw it go into the front door of the school.

He at once told the janitor, who traced It to the top flight of stairs. The dog gave unmistakable signs of rabies then. The Janitor, before it could make its escape, closed and locked the doors at the foot of the flight. Then he told Principal Coleman there was a mad dog locked in up stairs. Mr.

Coleman instructed him to say nothing about it until the children had all gone home to their dlnnera The pupils and teachers did not hear about the dog until it had been shot. The door by which the dog entered is not one of the entrances used by the children, though it gives access to all parts of the1- building. It opens on the stairways by which visitors enter the upper rooms. It waa up these stairs the mad dog climbed. On the first floor there were two large classes of children tn session, and there were classes In the rooms on every other floor; A Newfoundland dog was killed at 12:45 P.

at 15i Prince fetreet. Another dog was killed at about the same time at 3iM Kaut Fifty-sixth Street, after it had bitten Carl Zipley of Bloomneld. N. J.

Wbltner, but Xt Ig Believed He Would Refuse to Accept. WASHINGTON, June the absencs of knowledge of the President's Intentions tbs Muln va ui vacancy in ui Cabinet has taken wide range. Bome of It is outside of the Umiu of reason. The names of men have been put forward which those close to the President know hi would not consider. A local paper to-day announced that the name of ex-Secretary Bristow was Included in the speculation concerning the place.

The fact that ln the nineteen years of his residence ln New-Tork Mr. Bristow has heea identified with movements looking to the betterment of the local Government is the alleged reason why the President mar see fit to offer him the vacant portfolio of the Department of State. Mr. Bristow doubtless will smile when he bears this gossip. The President has discussed the question of the vacancy with one or two persons, buf nothing has been said by him which would indicate that he had decided whom to appoint.

There is little doubt that his decision will be made before the week It hardly requires to be said that he will desire a Secretary of 8tate whose views oa International questions are ln accord with those of the Administration. This leads the friends of Attorney General Olney to the conclusion that be will be naked to accept the Secretaryship. Mr. Olney was a close friend of Mr. Gresham.

On every foreign question ot Importance which has arisen since March. 1883. the advice of Mr. Olner has been sought. It Is known that be has Indorsed every move of the Administration In its relations with foreign countries.

His Intimacy with Mr. Gresham and bis familiarity with matters of State, either settled or likely to require settlement, are believed to weigh heavily with the and there would not be any surprise la official circles if Mr. Olney should be selected as Mr. Gresham's successor. Mr.

Olneys dignified iuuuni aviuiuue at jne ume oi tne Chicago strikes is regarded here as a sure indication that If he should become Secretary "of State the traditions of that honor able office would be thoroughly upheld. It is not known whether the President has communicated with Mr. Olney on the subject of the vacancy. It by no means follows that if Mr. Olney should be transferred to the Department of State there would be a general shifting of Cabinet One who stands dose to the President said this evening that he would expect to see aa outsider take the place which would be vacated If either Mr.

Olney or Mr. Carlisle were promoted to the State Department. While there haa been more or less talk about the likelihood of the President's choice falling upon Mr. Carlisle, only a few assume that he may be selected. It Is pointed out by those who profess to have studied the sltuaUon that aside from his abilities In the line of diplomacy, Mr.

Odney is in position to take up Mr. Gresham's work without disturbing ln the least the department of which he Is now the head. The Supreme Court has adjourned for the Summer, and all over the country the United States courts are preparing for the long Summer vacation. Mr. Olney's successor would have plenty of time in which to become familiar with his duties.

On the other hand. Mr. Carlisle or any other members of the Cabinet could not be transferred without more or less disturbance of the nuhiin The President of course, aware of this. uui now mucn it will Influence big decision is a question which cannot now be answered. i There would be much mtifir.tin.
