He Has Received No Notification Of IL.


DETROIT. July 21.-The Erenino Ne,rs says
that the pension OF Justice Charles Dean Long
OF the Michigan Supreme Court has been sus-
pended for Investigation. and that. although
the order OF suspension bears date OF June II.
Justice Long has never been notified OF its

Few soldiers in this State suffer from
wounds as severe and annoying as those Of
Justice Long At the battle Of Wilmington
Island. Ga. where he lost his arm. he was also
shot through the hips and abdomen. To give
a slight indica ion OF the troublesome character
OF this still open wound. 1t may be said that
every day OF his life 1t has to be
dressed twice. and whenever the wound
closes he has to take to his bed.
1t is over thirty years since tho Government
gave recognition to these disabilities. Among
the hun reds Of thousands Of pensioners Mr..
Long stands we'll up toward the head Of the
list. the number OF his certificate. granted
money received through this certificate has
been increased from time TO time under vari;
GUS acts OF Congress until 1t has for several
Inquiries in this city failed to reveal any
thing that might furnish ground even for

Twenty four Of the sixty days allowed dur
applicntion for reins,a.emen. have aIready eI Il
pired. but Justice Long has not rece ived any
official notification OF inc suspension. Inc
first intim alton he had OF It was through the
Ne1rs to-day. To a reporter Of the Nens he
said:

my office as Judge. ! can't imagine any rea-
son for the course taken 1t is all a mystery

auence. l can stub along without It. guess.

battles. one Of which was Gettyshurg. He is
now very near death from gangrene OF the
foot and various other ,comr!.ints. some OF
