Commissioner OF Pensions An.
uunl IkeDOFt.

WASHINGTON, October 2j.-The Com.
missioner Of Pensions has finished his an
nual report, which shows that there are
on the pension rolls 23lS9l pensioners,
decrease Of ,42O from last year. They
are classified Rs follows; Army invalidS,
lO5,A7Si widows and dependent relatives,
lO4,ss5; survivors Of 1872, 1875; widows
Of soldiers Of 1912, 5,lG3; navy invalids,
1886; widows and dependent relatives Of
the navy, 1884. More than eleven per
cent OF the soldiers Of 1912 died last year.
The amount appropriated for army PEN
Sions was 500, 900, Of which Sll ,74S,-
433 were paid to invalid soldiers and for
artificial limbs, $lj,525, ,7S0 to widows and
dependent relatives, $685. 900 to widows
Of soldiers OF 1912, and 81 ,3jj,5O0 to sol.
diers Of 1912, leaving an unexpended bal.
ance Of 1887, ,23l, which has been covered
into the Treasury. The appropriation
for navy pensions was $565,OO0, Of which
all but $3l ,G6l was expended.
Commissioner Atkinson estimates That
reduction Of five hundred thousand dol.
lars can he safely made on tho apprOprl.
alton for next year. There are now
pending nearly forty thousand claims I'M.
acted upon, mostly on account Of lack Of
clerical assistance, which causes much
dissatisfaction among applicants. The
Commissioner recommends additions to
the clerical force. Legislation Is asked
to define Sufficient proof Of marriage"
Of pensioners widows, so as to make evil
dencc Of cohabitation sufficient to drop
pensioners from the rolls. Large mum.
bers OF pensiOned widows are known 10 be
Cohabiting with men whom the Depart.
ment can not prove to be their lawful
husbands. Hence no authority exists TO
drop their names.
During last year G75 applications for
bounty land we're made, and 4O7 warrants
issued, calling for G3,5GO acres Of land.
The Commissioner recommends the abol.
ishment Of the present SyStem OF examin.
Ing surgeons, and the appointment OF
sixty tirstClass surgeons, at fixed salaries,
who shall give their whole time to the
service. lie thinks this measure Of
economy, and one which will facilitate
the payment Of pensions. Fifteen hun.
drcd and thirty claims were investigated
by special agents, Of which 800 were
found to be fraudulent; 243 pensions were
dropped on evidence Of fraud, resulting
in saving nearly Sl50,OOO. Over $4,000
were recovered from those who have been
drawing pensions fraudulently. The
Commissioner thinks the knowledge that
an efficient secret service exists, prevents
n large amount Of fraudulent claims be.

Thi, would seem To Indicate u heavy
decrease in the pork crop, and the rea'
,onablc certainty Of high prices, but such
result will not necessarily follow. The
corn crop this year is without doubt by
far the largest ever grown; the price Is
now about % cents per bushel lower than
il was year ago, but the supply OF oIdis

too, experience has shown that statistics
relating to hogs can not be implicitly re.

Of the pork crop is that afforded by the
packers at the end Of the season; and tho
result Of their operations last year
showed ronclusiycly that 10 adequate
idea can be formed Of the outcome in ad-
vance by any method Of counting the

will be an abundance Of both corn and
pork for home consumption, and to
spare, during the ensuing twelve months.

hood Of 100000. No report Of the
losses has yet been received from the
agents, and It Is impossible to state the
proportion Of the losses to the risks. A
rough estimate places the total loss at
S2,OOO,0OO. No loss Of life has yet been
reported.
The great number Of people reported
turned out OF doors by the fire Stated at
10000 is accounted for by the fact that
owing to the peculiar mode of life led by
the greater part Of the population engaged
in the mines work by shift day and
night. In many instances the same lodg-
ings are occupied at different hours by
numerous tenants, and at no time are tho
houses equal to the demand. Nearly all
the lodging houses and dwellings occu.
pied by the miners were in the track Of
the COnAagration. On the nOrtheasterly
course, being the immediate neighbGrhool
Of the mining works, the IRE has now
burnt out, and all danger is at an end.
