I recollect well hearing mother tell of tho Rev
dictionary and of the many hardships she was
forced to submit to when she was girl.
I've lived there during the late war; and our
house was struck great many times by shot and
shell thrown into the city. One of my daughters
and granddaughter were struck by pieces of n
flying shell, which penetrated into the house and
hit them while they were engaged In their house

ties of the Office. As there are now pending
in your Bureau $4,000 claims, and additional
claims being filed every day, two and half
or three years will be required to adjudicate
them. 1t must be evident to claimants and
their attorneys that much patience is required,
that all these claims can not be adjudicated at

In view Of the great magnitude of the work

attorneys shall be advised of the status Of their
claims direct, rs far as the force of your Bureau
will permit. and that such information will be
given direct to claimant on Congressional cali

nishing the same information many times.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR,
WAsHTNGToN, April 10, 1892. !
To the missioner Of Pensions.
SIR: 1 have received your letter calling my
attention to the vast amount Of work imposed
upon your Office in connection with the CORE
spondence of members of both Houses of
Congress concerning pension claims, stat
ing that the handling of these Congress
sional call-slips, In their progress through
the various divisions Of the office, occupy the
time of many clerks and require the drawing
of more than 1000 cases day, and to answer
all the calls made would virtually stop the adj
Indication of claims, and that only about %
per cent. of them are answered, and that the
courtesy extended to members of Congress
has been abused by certain persons acting az
private secretaries, and the information OBJ
tanned upon the examination of pension claims
called down upon Congressional slips has been
furnished to attorneys and claimants for a con-
sideration. To show to what extent the CORE
spondence In respect to pension claims is car
ried, you state that you have before you one case
in which the claimant has addressed more than
30 letters to members of the Senate and House
of Representatives; all of which have been
the claimant having been twice examined by
competent Medical Boards and no disability
discovered. In another case, although the
claimant has been notified of the evidence re-
quired to establish his claim, and has not I'M
dertaken to furnish any Of it, you state that 50
letters have been received from different
prominent persons; all of which have been sent
to the case. You state that what is now needed
In the interest of claimants and for the orderly
administration of the laws is for the entire
force of the office to devote its energies to the
adjudication of the claims now complete, and
to the making of calls upon the War Depart
ment for the military and hospital records of
claimants; upon the claimants for evidence to
complete their cases, and the ordering of medi-
cal examinations with the minimum amount
Of correspondence in respect to pending claims.
You state that there are now 10000 cases on
the completed files which are being drawn
for adjudication in the order OF the date of
their completion, and that from 1500 to 1900
claims per day are being added to these files as
claims are completed. and that from $4,000 to
10000 certificates per month are issued upon
claims allowed.
To correct the evils complained Of your Bu-
reau should correspond direct with the claim
ant or his attorney, and thereby relieve MEM
bers of Congress from the enormous CORE
spondence which causes the same information
to be many times duplicated, and requiring
the services of large corps of clerks who
should be occupied with more legitimate du-

TENDER thousands of veterans who passed through

Therefore, say, let all make an effort TO be pres.

which, like all small things, is struggling for life
greater abundance, and with the firm belief that
we shall have it. We have already had the honor
Of "A visit from our new Department Commander,
Edgar Allen, who made an eloquent address to
what he termed "The Baby Post" urging us to
greater activity, which would not fail to make this
a prosperous Post. We predict, with the Depart

cause, that this Department will achieve much
greater during the present year than it
has In the past.
