THE CANTEEN CLAUSE. The “canteen” clause of the bill, as agreed upon in conference, was criticized by Mr. Hol- man (Ind.) as discriminating against enlisted men. Mr. Pickler (S8.D.) was opposed to the whole proposition, He did not want the government to legalize the sale of liquors to the soldiers. MR, OSBORNE SPEAKS OUT. Mr. Osborne thought that the commanding general of the army knew as much about the wants of the army as any member of Congress, whether he came from South Dakota, lowa or Kansas. For a member of Congress to attempt to get a little prohibitory capital by striking at the canteen, which was indorsed by officers of the army, was to show himself who was looking forward to the election not far dist: member—even if he came from Maine—ex- amined the reports of army officers he would be im favor of canteens, Mr. Chipman (Mich.) favored the canteen system, but opposed the provision in the bill because it gave the governmental recognition of the prohibition laws of a few of the states, Mr. Kerr (Iowa) said that the government should not recognize the right of army officers to sanction the sale of ardent spirits of any kind, and he believed that the proposed can- teen system would demoralize the army, ‘TWO DIFFEKENT PICTURES.

The deficiency in the amount of funds in the hands of the different pension agents, which has resulted in the announcement by the agent at Indianapolis that a large number of pension- ers will becompelled to wait until July 1 for the payment of their pensions, has been caused by the unisually large number of allowances made by the Pension Office under the present administration, and particularly since Gen. Raum’s term began. The great amount of allowances has been largely in original cases, but the office makes an excel- lent showing in all cases, There have been issued already 7,000 more original pensions than were — issued = dur- ing the last fiscal year, and the office has y month's work before the end of the present fiscal year. Another drain upoa the appro- priation was the act of March 1, 159), | which increased to $72 per month all 5 sions for total disability—requiring aid and attendance of another person. The number of these cases is large and involves the expenditure of a large amouut of money. The Pension Office record for the present fiscal year will he far ahead of that tor any single fiscal year for many years, ‘The final payments by the pension agents will not be completed until about June 20, and those who have not been paid by that time will only be compelied to wait a few days unti the appropriation for the next fiscal year becomes available, on July 1, when they will be paid. THE SQUADRON IN BRAZIL. It is Said the Ships Were Ordered There at Mr. Blaine’s Suggestion. Some discussion has arisen in naval circles over the statement in a New York paper, in its correspondence from the squadron of evolu- tion, to the effect that the orders to the squadron to go to Brazil were given when retary Tracy was in Brooklyn and while Com- modore Ramsay was ecting secretary. The inference to be drawn from this was that the new movement was done without con- sultation with the higher powers, while the truth is that the original order came to Secro- tary Tracy from the President and that Com- modore pre 4 in signing the iustructions merely carried out the intentions of his chief. There is little doubt that the original movement toward the transfer of the squadron to Brazil was made by Secretary Blaine, who intimated to the President that the presence of a few American war ships in the vicinity of the new republic would be of benefit to the prestige of this country.
