WASHINGTON. March 25.-It fins been
discovered here That one Of the most inn

tration of pension matters has remained
uupromulgatcd so far as the public
knows for more than five months past, and
chat this decision reverscs a ruling under
which fully $2,OOO,OO0 have been wrong

The facts are so important as to require a
statement at length.
1t is learned that on September % last,
the assistant secretary made pension de

pensions i'm certain cases and established

utes Hitherto it has been uniformly held
that under sections 1888, A, 7O2 and Ais Of
the revised statutes minor grandchildren
Of a deceased soldier who, at the time Of
| his DEATH was pensoncr, or lawful claim
ant for invalid pension, could hold pen
siouable status as minor of the soldier; so
