BUREAU OF SOLDIERS CLAIMS.
Cor Nov IL 1865

BUREAU OF CLAIMS.
COLUMBUS, Nov. IL, 1865.
To HIS EreeHeneyy Charles Anderson, Gov
erner Of the State Of Ohio:
I have the honor to submit a brief sum
mary of the transactions Of this Bureau,
since 1 entered upon the duties of the Of
fee, on the 9Th day of March, 1865.
Mr.. James z. Lewis, late State Agent,
had on his general record eight thousand
and twenty-four claims for collection
against the United States, received during
the three years and two-thirds of his ad-
ministration, of which he had collected
and paid over to claimants in 6752 cases,
leaving 1872 claims unsettled, and which
we're transferred to me under the provis-
ions Of the act creating this Bureau.
1 have received and registered 5o4l new
claims. Of the claims received from Mr..
Lewis 1 have collected three hundred and
se~venty-three (373), leaving 500 uncol-
lected. A large proportion are old claims,
received in 1852 and 1863, and many of
these are not collectable on account of
errors and omissions, that cannot now be
corrected. Of the 5o4l new claims, re-
ceiYed and registered since March 9Th,
1865, there have been collected 7s5.
The following tabular statements show
the transactions of this office, for the light
months and nine days of my administra-
tion:
Cleveland daily leader. [volume] ([Cleveland, Ohio]) 1865-1873, 1866-01-18

Paymasters G. W. Williams and Wm
S. Stryker, have rendered great service BY
their advice and the facilities they have
afforded me in the adjustment of claims
Hon. B. w. Brice, Paymaster Genera
LISA; Hon 4 IsaseHRh n Barrett, Com.
Preach, I'd Auditor U. S. Treasury, hav
alsorecognized with c~ommendable prompt
ness, the claims of this Bureau upon their
several departments.
1t is evident from the summary of facts
stated above, that this Bureau must
continue to be of great import
ance to that worthy class for whose
benefit it was established. Additional
facts are not wanting to support this view.
There are now nearly 10, 600 pensioners
in this State and reliable estimates fix
the probable number, when all applica-
tons shall have been considered at Wash
ington, ut not less than $4,000.
An annual fee, which is usually charged
by private claim agents, Irresponsible or IT.
responsibility of Eve dollars per capita, for
collecting these pensions, would amount to
seventy thousand dollars. IF compelled
to resort to agents, these pensioners would
be likely to pay a much larger amount.
liz Otdbo OHSe IL 10 herself, as
Will as to the memory of her brave de-
Tenders, to provide for the prompt collec-
ton and remittance Of pensions without
this tax.
In conclusion, permit me to suggest to
your Exceilency, and through you to the
Honorable Representatives Of the People,
who will shortly c%onvenein Legislative As
sembly; that the facilities Of this Bureau,
for the transaction of business, should be
very much increased.
The claims now on hand will not fall
short of 81, 2oO,O 600, and they will increase
rather than diminish for some time to
come. Ny collection for the whole wear
will not fall short of $780, 900. Thesmall
number Of clerks allowed to this office is
inadequate to the labor to be performed,
and it is therefore recommended that pro-
vision be made for an increased clerical
In consideration of the large amount of
labor to be performed in this Office, the
late Governor Brough furnished me with |
additional clerks, which he paid from his
contingent fund, and without this aid 1
could not have prosecuted the business
with SO much success.
