FILIBUsTERING OVER PENSIONS.
THE IowAN's BILL CREATES A SHARP FIGHT IN THE
HOUsE-THE BILL DEFEATED.


HOUsE-THE BILL DEFEATED.
IBY TELEGRAPH To THE TRIBUNE1
WASHINGTON. April 1.-Mr. Cummings. of Iowa,
made sharp fight in the House today for the pass
age of his bill providing that all pensions on
account of death disability from service
in the Union Army that have been, or
nav hereafter be granted, shall begin from
the death discharge of the soldier, and providing
further for the payment f arrears of pensions.
The Democrats flbustered against this bill for an
hour, and then vote taken, but it lacked
n few votes of the requisite twO-thrds.
The passage of such bill this would involve the
immediate payment of many millions of dollars out
of the Treasury.
There IS q class Of cases in which great injus-
tice has been done by. the delay i'll granting
pensions. Owing to the lack OF clerl-
cal force, applications for pensions nave
had to lie unacted upon for year or two AMI when
they have been reached it has often happened
that something irregular in the form OF the
appplicatiOn has made it necessary for further
proof to be taken, some change TO DC
made When this has been done the application
has had to go to the bottom OF the pile, where IL
has not been again reached for months or
years. Pensions when granted III such cases
ought to begin when the original application was
made. But Mr. Cummings bill proposes to pay
pensions to soldiers for years when they have
| never asked for them. For instance. 1t has
happened in thousands Of cases that SOL
diers have been discharged for disability
who were able to their living, or
were IN such circumstances that they did not need
pension. and therefore made application. Butyears
after, perhaps ten, their circumstances have changed
and they have come to the Government for the
aid which it has promised. All they have asked for
is to be provided for in the future bat, Mr.. Cum
mngss bill would make the pension run back to the
time of the original discharge thus giving the
soldier from 81 900 upward i'll a lump.
Very few Representatives dare 10 vote against
such bin as tins, matter what they think of its
wisdom.
