10000, and al-r eighteen months OF
pensions, at $40 per month aggregat-
ing $96,000,000. ignoring the $6000,-
600 these pensioners are drawing every
quarter, the government to June 80,
1898, has suffered an irrecoverable
loss Of 6,7S00O0. This merely rep
resents the loss incurred by placing
men on the roll who had no legal
right there, and to that must be added
the cost of the excessive pensions
granted to those legally entitled to
place on the roll. II the Bussey de-
cision OF January, 1898, would have
excluded 100000 pensioners, there can
be 10 doubt that it would also have
reduced the average rate Of pensions
under the new law from $40 TO IS per
month, thereby preventing all add
tional irrecoverable loss in "frst-pay-
ments" and pensions aid OF nearly
100000.
On June 80, 1862, there were 394,-
794 old law invalid pensioners, of
whom only 5O,697, or less than IS per
cent, were drawing $12 per month.
Thus stood the record nearly thirty
years after the war; but at the above
date, at the close Of the second years
record OF the new law, of the 29306S
new INVALID pensioners, 160,9S5, or 50
per cent Of them, were receiving that
high rate of pension. Take this in
connection with the fact that General
Raum gave to new-law pensioners
monthly rate so per cent higher than
to old-law pensioners, and there can
be no doubt that these new-law pen
sioners have beeh ratio unjustly to
the government and with equal injus-
tice to all other penpioners.-Philadel

THE Senate has been, in accordance

easy, adjourning from Friday to Mon
day each week, but Senators Voorhees,
and Mcpherson, of the Finance COM
mittee, have given notice of the inten-
ton of that committee to oppose the
loss of another working day until the
two bills reported from the committee
shall have been disposed OF. The two
bills are those for the increase OF ma
tional pank currency, and the repeal
of the purchasing clause of the Sher-
man silver law. The first now has the
right Of way, but Senator Voorhees, has
said that he would move to side-track
it and take up the repeal bill if any
disposition is shown to use it to post
pone action on the repeal bill.

What the Vote Means.

Little surprise was felt by anybody
when the house passed the bill for the
unconditional repeal Of the purchas-
ing clause of tie Sherman silver law.
So nearly all of the members had an
nounced in advance how they would
vote that the result was foregone
conclusion days ago. The man who
accepts this action Of the house as an
indication tnat majority OF it's mem
bers oppose silver as money makes a
mistake. 1t indicates nothing OF the
kind. On the contrary, an overwhelm-
ing majority of the house favors BIZ
metalism, as will be shown by future
legislation. Tqose who voted for re.
peal did 80 because they agreed with
President Cleveland in believing that
the purchase of silver bullion by the
government was the main cause Of the
country's financial troubles and that
it ought to be adopted, if for no other
reason, because the business sentiment
of the country is so strongly opposed
to it.
Although the Wilson repeal bill will
now 60 to the Senate it is not probable
that it will be acted upon, because the
Voorhees, repeal bill, with the clause
DECLARING Bimetalism to be the policy
of the United States, is already before
the Senate, and is more preferable to
the democratic leaders in that body,
Although the opponents of unecon'
ditional repeal still maintain a bold
front in the Senate, sine the great sill
yer speeches OF Senators Voorhees, and
and Hill, last week, both of whom took
strong ground in favor OF repeal, the
sentiment in favor Of repeal has been
steadily growing, and it is now the

THE new rules for the House are a
decided improvement upon those OF
the last session, although the changes
have been few, Although few in num-
Der the changes are important and
were all made with one object in view
the lessening CT the power of
fillibusterers to do mischief. One Of
the most far-reaching OF the changes
is that which makes on hundred a
quorum when the House is sitting as
committee Of the whole and gives
this committee authority to limit de-
bate, an authority which under the
rules of the last Congress had to be
obtained from the House, which could
not act without the presence of a
constitutional quosum.

InE count OF the moneys and secur-
tiles III the United States treasury,
consequent upon the transfer OF the
office of treasurer from Mr., Nebeker
TO Mr.. Morgan June l last, has just
been completed. 1t was an enormous
undertaking, and involved the hand
ling ofabout 1851 ,900,000in gold, silver
currency, and bonds. The treasurer's
accounts were all verified, except in
the case OF silver, stored in the large
new vault to the amount of oAer $780,
100000 where there were ten coins
missing, These are supposed to have
slipped between cracks in the board
floor recently put in over the concrete
floor to preserve the silver bags from
dampness Many of these bags became
mildewed and burst when handled,
scattering their contents on the floor.
The loss was SO trifing that it was not
deemed worth while to raise the floor
ing at present. When that is done the
ten stray coins will probably be reoov-
cred. In the meantime the official who
placed the silver in the bags from
which the coins were absent is obliged
to make good the deficit and await
reimbursement in the event OF the sub
sequent recovery of the missing pieces.
The last days reckoning was devoted
specially to a count OF the gold in the
treasury vaults, amounting to about
$11, 100000. The small gold holdings
is due to the fact that most Of the gold
Of the treasury was recently transferred
to the New York sub-treasury to meet
the severe drain at the port.

A Costly Pension Error.

Honest soldiers as well as honest
citizens want the precise truth about
alleged illegal pensions. AS many in
quiries are made from our readers in
regard to the suspension of a number
OF pension cases by the new commits
sioner, we give the exact truth as to
the causes which now imparatively
demand the suspension of many pen-
sion cases because they were, as ad-
mitted by the pension authorities un
der the Harrison administration, who
issued them, issued in open violation
of the pension laws.
In October, 1890, Commissioned of
Pensions Raum, presumably with the
approval of his superiors, directed his
force to adjudicate and rate claims for
invalid pensions under the disability
act OF June 81, 1890, as If the estah-
lished disabilities were of service orr
gin, or, in other words, to construe
the new law in the same manner as
the general pension laws, which re-
quired proof that the disabilities had
been contracted in service in line OF
duty,
The result was that prior to January
6, 1890, he had placed upon the new
roll some $4,000 invalid pensioners,
1920 per cent. of that class of claims
acted upon. Then came Assistant
Secretary Bussey's restraining order
directing that no pension under the
new law should hereafter be granted
unless the claimant established a
disability that incapaciated him in a
greater or lesser degree for the per.
formance of the manual labor neces-
sary to earn his support. Under that
order General Raum reduced his rate
of admission of the same class OF
claims to 35 $40 per cent, thus adj
hitting that he had placed upon the
roll Of invalid pensioners under the
new law two and one-third times as
many names as he would have done if
Bussey's late order had prevailed
from October, 1890, or as General
Raum testified, instead of $4,000
names he would have placed upon
that roll but 10000.
1t thus seems, General Raum being
the unwilling witness, that there are
now upon the new roll OF invalid pen
pensioners 100000 persons having nc
legal right to be there. Having dis.
covered their stupendous error, it was
clearly President Harrison's duty to
have ordered revision of the rolls
with view to the elimination of that
large number, whose annual payments
at an average of $40 per month
amount to $24 100000. But it was de-
termined to bequeath this legacy to
