The Mexican Pension Bill.

ANOTHER CAUCUS OF REPUBLICAN SENATOR'S
The republican Senators held another caucus
this morning to receive the report Of the committee
appointed to consider the subject of amendments to
the Mexican pension bill The report was made
and there was an animated discussion upon a PROD
osition to attach the ingalls, bill, repeating the linn
1tation upon the pension arrearages act, as an
amendment to the Mexican bill. The proposition
was, In fact to make all pensions payable from the
date OF death or disability instead OF from the date
OF granting. This was warmly opposed by some
senators and stoutly advocated by Others, the
latter taking the line OF argument advanced by
party had pledged itself to this policy Finally the
proposed amendment was adopted with liInita-
first OF next January. That Is that all cases filed
by that date snail be payable from the date OF dis
ability or death.
There Is strong probability that the amend
ment Will be defeated In the Senate. as the demo-
Gratis will generally vote against 1t and some re-
publican Senators declare their purpose to do like
wise.
