PENSION CLAIMS.
Annual Report of the Assistant Secretary
of the Interior.

Annual Report OF the Assistant secretary
of the Interior.
WASHINGTON, Nov 7.-The annual re-
port of the assistant secretary of the in
terror, having charge of pensions and
pension appeals, for the fiscal year end
ing July 1, 1891, has been submitted to
the secretary of the interior. The report
shows the disposition of pension claims
from July 1, 1890, to June 80, 1891, and
also supplemental statement covering
the work up to Oct. 1, 1891.
Assistant Secretary Bussey says that
from an early date in the history of our
pension system, there have prevailed,
under different administrations, conflict
ing opinions as to the power to enforce
the reimbursement of money paid in ex-
cess for pensions in conformity with
either inaccurate or illegal certificates
issued through mistakes, either of fact
or of law, in the adjudication of claims
by the bureau of pensions and in the
absence Of clear legal provision on the
subject, the government has been com
PEELED to submit to serious losses of
money, which, having been once i'm.
properly paid, either to claimants or
pensioners, We're irrecoverable under ary
established rule of departmental pran-
tice. He recommends that congress
make special provision in regard to these
cases.
General Bussey recommends that con-
gress amend the first clause of Section 3
of the act of June q, 1890, in regard tC
the list of applications for widows pen
sion under this section which, when ac-
cording to law, the claimant has been
necessarily denied pension because tho
soldier on whose death the claim was
based, althor gh serving NINETY days OF
more in the army or navy" as shown by
the evidence, had not been "honoT-
ably discharged prior to death,
but had died on individual
furlough, or when absent from
the technical line Of duty in the service
He urges that co. gress amend this sec
ton so that it will be applicable to such
meritorious cases of dependence and dis
tress.
He also recommends that persons who
served in the Confederate army and who
afterward enlisted in the navy of the
United States be given the same pension
able rights as were granted to those who
enlisted i'll the federal army.

WHERE Is II?
The Boundary Line Between
Ohio and Indiana.
A Question for the Government
to Decide.

Said That Ohio is Entitled 60 1900
Square Miles of HOosier Territory, In
cluding Richmond, Fort Wayne and
Union City-If So Indiana is Entitled to
Chicago and the Worlds Fair.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 7.-Senator Shock
ney, of Union City, leader of the Repub-
Icans in the upper branch of the last
legislature, was in the city Thursday
Senator Shockney is getting interested
in the agitation of the question of the
boundary line between Ohio and In
diana, the settlement of which may
transform him from a Hoosier into a
Buckeye.
He told reporter that it was not gen.
orally known, but that it is nevertheless
a fact that a government survey party
has been at work for month locating
the true line between Indiana and Ohio.
The claim is made that the line that has
stood since 1902, when Ohio became
state, is erroneous, and that Ohio is en-
titled to strip off of the Hoosier state
varying from twelve miles wide at the
northern boundary to nothing at the
southern limit.
The agitation of the boundary line
question commenced year ago through
the adoption of resolution by the Ohio
legislature reciting the facts as stated,
and asking the national government to
correct the line. In compliance with
this resolution, a survey party was de-
tailed This party, whose operations
were directed by Professor Mendenhall,
on1 which yyaS in 11nTCOOn1 ahn1oa nf
Colonel Sinclair, has completed its work
up to the preparing of its report. This
will require about three weeks, when
the result of their findings will be laid
before the authorities at Washington.
Includes zoe, 900 Population.
Senator Shoclzney, who has access to
some pretty good sources of informa-
ton, states that he has learned that the
surveyors will find the facts as stated
that Ohio has claim on Indiana for a
strip 200 miles long, and of an average
width of six miles, an area of / 200
square miles.
This strip would include the cities of
Richmond, Fort Wayne and Union City,
and total population of not less than
100000, including very considerable
bulk of the Indiana Republican vote.
How 1t Happened.
Inquiry into the cause of the Juggling
of these state boundary lines discloses
the fact that when Ohio was enacted
into state there were post-trading
stations at Richmond and Fort Wayne.
where highly profitable business was
done with the Indians. If the line had
been run correctly, these post-traders
would have been taken into the new
state of Ohio, and their occupations
would have been gone.
1t is charged that the post-traders
bribed the surveyors, who DETECTED the
line to the east and left Richmond and
Fort Wayne on the Indiana side
Indiana Would Get Chicago.
The question is very interesting and
complicated one for should the. claim of
Ohio be enforced, Indiana, on the same
grounds, would have cause of action
against Illinois, and twelve-mile strip
off of the northern part of the Sucker
state would P've Chicago and the worlds
fair to Indiana.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
A Member OF the Gillian Congress Gives
an Account of the Affair.

an Account of the Affair.
NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-Senor Don Ed
nardo Matte, a member of the Gillian
rongress, in letter from Santiago to a
friend in this city, sends an account of
the affairs which have occurred in that
republic since the congressionalist party
came into power. Senior Matte says
after Balmaceda's death it was
found that the deceased president left
four letters, one each for his wife and
his mother, one for friend whose name
could be ascertained, but who is believed
to be the president-elect of the Balma-
ceda party and the fourth to Senior Ur-
burri, one of Balmaceda's most intimate
friends, who, by the way, is minister to
Chill from the Argentine Republic. In
the letter there is very significant post
script, which reads as follows
"P. 81 count upon it, in all events,
that you fr'fill the secret charge of
honor that l entrusted you with last
night for the persons of whom you
know
THE post script has been pretty well
looked into and it is now ascertained
that it refers to certain money matters
which Ealmaceda was negotiating
through the Argentine minister. One
of these matters concerns the million
dollars in specie sent to England via the
Argentine Republic in the English man
of-war. The other matters will be made
clear later on. This much can be said
however, that the Argentine govern.
ment has been communicated with and
requested to remove Senior Uriburri or
the Argentine government will make q
demand in England for the money that
Balmaceda sent there. Time will show,
however, what will actually be done,
"All the foreign powers represented at
Santiago have been very friendly
towards the congressionalists and to the
junta except Argentine, England and
the United States, especially the latter.
The entire junta views United States
Minister Egan with marked distrust, and,
though no very loud words are spoken,
anathemas low and mutterings deep, far
above a whisper, are launched upon his
head by Chilians of both parties; the
Congressionalists because of Senior
Egan's favoritism and partiality to Bal
maceda's cause, instead of remaining
neutral as he should have done and thel
Balmacedists because he ill-advised Bal |
maceda and buoyed him up with false
hopes of victory, thus prolonging the
strife and causing a great deal of UNI
necessary blood to be shed. He will be
served the same way as Argentine's
representative, by having his recall de-
manded, and it is not saying too much
to remark that Egan and his actions are
not doing either his country or his
countrymen any good in Chill.
This sentiment among the Chilians
is growing more universal and stronger
each day, and now that the calm and
cool deliberation that succeeds the bat
ties fray prodominates, fresh fire is apt
to be engendered, and new complica-
tions may a-sse. "
The letter from which the above is
taken was dated Oct. 5.
