THE PENSION OFFICE.
Commissioner Lochren Has Corrected
Gross Abuse.

1t is SAID at the Pension Office that
since the passage ofthe act of June u
1890, claims for pensions under that
act have been given unfair preference
in that matter OF adjudication over
claims under previous acts where the
disabilities OF service origin are alleged
Thus. it is said, about 100000 old
claims have remained sidetracked for
about four years. Several days ago a
block of 1000 Of these old cases was
taken from the files, and an examin-
alton disclosed the fact that about 20
per cert. of them were complete, and
yet in consequence Of the bureau be
ing engaged in the adjudication OF
June 27, 1890, cases, no action had
been taken. With view to correcting
this injustice Commissioner Lochren
has directed the chiefs of the several
divisions to make q thorough search
of the files FOR the old cases, and where
they are found complete, to promptly
forward them for allowance, and il
found incomplete, to make the neces-
sary calls for additional proof.

the charge was brought against Riley that no

people that he was elected anyhow, but the
charges still remained. The amount of his
shortage was placed at $4,000. A few weeks
later he disappeared, and for four months not
a word was heard as to his whereabouts until
month ago, when he turned up one morning in
his office. He claimed that he had been drugged
and held up by enemies. The grand jury took
up his case with the result stated. When the
sheriff called at Riley's home he found that he
had disappeared again. The shortage on which
the indictments we're found amounts to 200,
