A Force Of Experts Engaged in Depriving
Soldiers of Their Pensions.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. April 22.-Legislators are re-
ceiving immense numbers of letters from pen
sioners throughout the country, complaining
that Commissioner Black has force of experts
at work in the Pension Office whose business it
is to find technicalties upon which pensions can
be stopped They complain that pensions which
have been allowed for many years, and which
everybody knowing anything about them knows
are just, have been cut off upon the
most frivolous alleged discoveries. It appears
that General Black has hobby in regard to de-
serters. His instructions to these people who
are looking up excuses for stopping pensions
is to find technicalities which may be called de-
sertions Pensioners who absented themselves
from their companies at any time during the
war, or whose papers were not made out just so,
will be considerably nervous over this matter
until they ascertain that the Commissioner of
Pensions has been called to halt. Any good
and gallant soldier may have committed some
freak in the time of his service of two, or four,
or five years which could be shown to be tech
nical desertion, and under this new and out
rageous regime almost any pension is liable to
be Topped off

eurred. this evening. on the levee at Old
Town Ridge, sixteen miles below Helena. The
break is about 200 feet wide, and will overflow
all the bottom lands for many miles down the
river. It Is estimated that over million acres
will be flooded by the break. Nearly all the
planters that will suffer had put in their crops
The result of this calamity will be disastrous to
the crops In the bottoms This overflow will do
more damage than the one of 1882, inasmuch az
it has occurred two months later. and the water
is not apt to recede in time 50 allow replanting.
It is feared that there will be large loss OF
stock by drowning
