dozen motions were made from as many
parts OF the room to lay the dispatch on
the table aud to refer it to the commit
tee on pensions. Several delegates de-
manded yociferously the name of the
officer or comrade who had taken it
upon himself to extend the invitation and
Gen. keifer in an excited manner asked
Commander Rea il he was responsible
for the action. The commander re-
sponded in the negative, adding that he
had no authority to invite the president.
Some of the delegates took advantage of
the circumstances to make a general on
slaught upon the presidents pension
policy and his vetoes. Finally all the
motions We're declared out of order and
the regular business was proceeded with.
1t has developed that the invitation had
been extended by the local committee, to
which body the message was addressed,
and that it had gotten into the hands of
the adjntant general of the national en-
campment by an error iii the exchange
OF papers. Republican comrades are ex-
pressing their regrets at the occurrence,
but insist that nothing transpired to
which the president could nave taken
exception had he been present.

The pension was dealt with at length,

ported by the twenty first national en-
campment had tailed to pass congress.
Said the conlmander-in-chief:
"By this failure, wholly inexplicable
and indefensible, thousands of our help

devotion to their country in it's extremity
are subsisting upon the charity of their
comrades, or are paupers in the mighty

pie of America will voluntarily continue
to withhold from these heroic men that
aid needed to preserve them from the
pauper's fate, and enable them to end
their lives replete with past glory SO full
of present pain, so bereft of future hope
in self-respected manliness.n
