Deputy Commissioner Lincoln's Recon-

Deputy Commissioner Lincoln's Recon-
msndation In Regard to Them.
The annual report Of Charles P. Lincoln,
the Ascsl year ended June 80. 1891, shows that
more than 40, 900 casss were examined by him.
During the year the deputy commissioner re-
opened q, $50 rejected cases and similar action
was denied In al cases He says that the bene-
ft Of the increase Of the working force Of the
bureau made by the act Of Congress approved
August 20, 1890, was not manifest until some
months subsequent to the appointments Of the
clerks provided by Law, and this was due, not
alone to the inexperience Of the new clerks,
but because their training demanded so much
Of the time and attention Of the old force.
An amendment to the pension laws 10 rec
commended and the necessity for ii explained
In the following paragraph: My attention has
recently been called to two or three cases, the
peculiarities Of which suggest the need Of adj
ditional Legislation for the proper distribu-
ton Of the pension and for the protection of
the interests Of the government as well as those
Of the claimant These are cases where the
soldiers having become insane during and by
reason OF their military service were sent to
the government hospital for the insane where
they have been cared for ever since, period
Of nearly thirty years. In allowance to these
claims, applications having been made by
guardian appointed in these late days and ap-
parently for the sole purpose of obtaining the
pension, it appears but proper that the govern
ment should be reimbursed for the amount ex-
pended in the maintenance of these claimants
since their separation from the service. Ad-
ditional legislation to this effect is recon-
mended.
