F. September 21st, 1889 % '* v . Washington Letter. [From Onr Regular Correspondent.] J Washington, September, 20, 1889. j The Pension office muddle still farDishes the Republicans with worry aud tho Democrats with amnsemeut. : The trouble seems to have been to find a Representative G. A. R man , for the position of Commissioner who , was willing to reverse the methods of | Tanner in the conduct of the office. Ex-Representative Warner of Mis- | sjuri to whom the position was first offered, was rather inclined to accept, ! bat after spendiog a night with Presi- j dent Harrison at Deer Park, and find- j V icg out what was expected of bins, be deolicod, and it was gived out that be could not ttfford to give up bis private business. The real reason was that he would not agree to codduct the office on any other method thau that adopted by Tanner. Then the position was tendered to G. A Merrill, of Massachusetts, aod it is uoder8food that he has accepted it with all the conditions imposed by President Harrison. Geo. Merrill is an Ex-Commander in chief of G. A. I K. but he is Very conservative on the i pension question and has always j voted with the minority of that ori ganizatioo in opposing the ptoposed j service pension. The prtsent actiDg ' Commissioner of pensions, actiog it is supposed nnder orders from President Harrison, has revoked the ordea^ot TanDer allowing the pensioners'receiving less than $4 per month to be examined upon application for a rerating, and doe makiDg the evidence of a singltepriva'e sufficient to prove original ^disability. The Administration' has jtake^the back track ciive the app^fir8?r?rf ^Ii|&>rder of Deeds for this/ district; his friends claim was promised to'Him if he woold resign^ Tvvbich the citizens here irrespective of p#rty arejsp^rn *arms against bdfeget^?ng t^his posj^n, which Presiden^arrison fc^spromised them should not be vgrani; to soy oCrS.h?.a ciriz^.of the, D-Bttjg of Colombia.

Service Commission i has written a-letter to the postmaster - # J at Minneapolis, scoring mm lor violatiog the law in making appointments in his office. Representative Catchings, oi i Mississippi, thinks that the only legislation of importance which will be passed at the coming session of Congress, will be the repeal of the tobacco tax and that can only be passed with the assistance of Demociatic votes. Secretary Tracy is getting on very dangerous groand. He is considering the advisability of building the two 3,000 ton cruisers provided for by the last Congress in Govern^mentjoa^^ardsTrac^ mean6 strikers he will do well. It does not reqaire a very long memory to remember what attempting to build "vessels in Government Navy Yards a few years ago cost the people. Better stick to the contract system. Representative Bynum of Indiana, expects a very lively session of Congress. He says: "We have a lot to worry the Republicans about and we will be very apt to make it interesting for them " Members and Senators are getting quite plentiful around Washington. Taey recognize that the session cf Congress which begins in December will be a long one, how long, no man I is at present in a condition to even i make an intelligent guess, and come early to make preparation for it.
