FAKRIS' STRANGE CLAIM.
representative Morrill,, of Kansas, from
the Committee on Invalid Pensions, to-
day reported back the bin granting an
increased pension to John w. Farris, of
MISSOURI, with a recommendation that 1t
be passed over the Presidents veto. The
report says that the claimant, in his ap-
plcation, alleges that the disease of his
eyes was the result of djarrhoea con-
tracted In the service, and cites the opinion
of the medical examiner to the effect that
the disease OF his eyes cannot result from
diarrhea. In retutation of this, the re-
port quotes the testimony of several
physicians to the effect that the claimants
impaired vision was the direct effect of
diarrhua. The committee, however, does
not deem it absolutely essential that it
shall be proved with mathe matical GER
tainty that the loss OF sight was the
result OF military service, but holds that
Congress has right to grant the relief
sought without question, and that it was
it's duty TO do so the committee without
exception believes.
MONEY WANTED FOR DEAFNESS.
Representative Conger reported back,
with a recommendation similar to that
QhnUa
bill granting pension TO David L. Elder
kin, of Iowa. Mr.. Elderkin was dishou-
orably discharged and filed an applica-
ton for pension, alleging deafness, but
1t was refused on the ground of INSULT
cient proof. This fact, together with his
bad record, had weight with the Presi-
dent in vetOing the bill. In its report the
committee says that this seems to
be meritoriOus case, and the
only possible objection that could be
urged against the claim ia the claimants
dlshonOrable discharge. But this, it says,
seems to be fully explained, and while
technically the soldiers fault,lt certainly
was not In the spirit or intent of deser-
ton. The committee find that his deaf
ness and deplOraDie insanity was unques-
tiOnably the result of wounds received in
the service, and it therefore recommends
the passage of the bill over the veto.
The same committee today agreed to
take the same action in the case of the
| bill granting a pension 10 Sarah Ann
Bradley, of Ohio, who had husband and
four sons in the army. The President
vetoed this bill on the ground that the
husband did not die OF disability con-
tracted in the service, but the committee
does not regard that fact as essential, and
holds that the evidence that the claimant
is dependent is sufficient to warrant the
allowance of the claim. Representative
Ellsberry will present the report in this
case.
