Note from Mr. Bentley.
UNITED STATES PENSION OFFICE.
WASHINGTON. June 25 1881 (

Editor Stdr:-The item under title sThe Pen.
sion Office, +" as follows, is utterly false:
''IHE Pins ION CFFIcE.-SiDce Mr.. Bentley left
the PeDsion effice, there has been revolution in
the work OF the clerks. Heretofore it has been the
tutf N not to require the testimony OF the exam
lining surgeon In pension case until the other tAs
tmony bad been paseed upon. Deputy Oommis-
GO1er Chrks how ever, Issued an order that this
mttlcM testimony be called for in all OF the thou
the clerks sre engaged In sending the ,essary
notices 10 applicants. 1t is stated that this testi
mony VIII be very valuable to the Office In case
OF the 6eath OF an applicant before his case Is
/. have not left the Pension once but am
still Ia charge my resignation not having Yet
been accepted. q There has been no change
In the work Of the great body OF the clerks 8.
The deputy commissioner has made no order
calling for the medical and other testimony in
the unsettled claims.
/ enclose printed circular, dated Iine lst,
which embodies q determination r64ched by
me as early as the Goth OF May, ana which the
Office has been executing as rapidly as possible
by sending It t0 all invalid claimants whose
Claims have not been reached for adjustment,
1t was intended to send similar circular to th !.
widows, mil or children and dependent relatives
OF soldiers whoee unsettled claims were no
reached as soon as practicable
Although have done very little work In tie
newspapers since have been In Office, thins
the adoption OF the course indicated by the cir
cular very important to claimants In general
ard hope you will regard 1t of sufficient
public interest to justify its Insertion Ia TIE
STAR. Truly yours,
