Pension Commissioner Lochran
submitted This annual report to
the Secretary of the Interior 'last
week. The number of pensioners
on the rolls of the bureau is .066,
Ol2, with net increase of 1894
during Che past year. M During, the
year 24,7l5 claims for increase of
pension and $1,000 for additional
pension under the act of June 81,
1890, weres.allowed. y In the same
time 1921 claims for pension
and for increase were rejected.
Claims pending consideration
July 7 numbered ,15O.
Amount of money.'paid for pen
sions during the year was 1885,
73O,407. Balance at close of the
year was $2,43S,371. =. Appropria-
tons for the next. fiscal year,
Commissioner Lochran states,
will be ample, and the estimate
for the fiscal year 1895 amount to
$162,631,570.
Referring to the estimates for
the fiscal year of 1895 Commits
sioner Lochran says: eff these
were based wholly on the exper-
fence of former years and the
capacity of the force....of the bu-
reau to handle cases through the
former stages of examination to
allowance, the result would be a
much larger estimate. But 1895
is thirty years after the close OF
the civil war. The pension roll,
in view of it's size compared with
the number of men enrolled in
that war, will in my opinion, by
that time have reached its limit
and begin to decrease. The fall.
off in the presentation of new
claims appears from the fact
shown by the last report of my
predecessor. that there were on
October II, 1892, 7S9,041 claims
pending on the bureau while on
July Z, 1s93-not quite nine
months later-the number OF
claims pending had been reduced
to 711,150. 1t is apparent there
fore, that the filing Of new claims
and claims for increase has ceas
ed to exceed the number of cases
disposed of by the work of the
bureau, and that a rapid diminu
ton in the number of new claims
may be expected"
