US tremble and cling to each other for sup

the poet, makes US wondrous kind. On the

PENSION FIGURES.
An Interesting Annual Report From
Commissioner LOchren.

| COMMISSIONER LOCnrens
WASHINGTON, October 12.-The
report of Commissioner of Pensions
Lochren for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1894, has been submitted to
the Secretary of the Interior, and
the following abstract has been
given out for publication:
The report says the number OF
pensioners on the rolls June 80,
1898, was 966,0l2; that 39,Os5 new
pensioners were added to The rolls,
37,951 were dropped for asath and
other causes and 2,39S previously
dropped were restored to the rolls.
| The number of pensioners on the
rolls on June 80, 1894, was 1914.
The number of pension certificates
issued during the year was SO,2l3,
and 1883 claims of all classes
were rejected.
On July 1, 1894, there were un-
disposed of and in different stages
of preparation and advancement
claims for pensions and for increase
to the amount of 619,027, of which
2S7,209 claims, originals, widows
and dependents are on behalf of
persons not already on the rolls.
These claims, save some recently
filed, have been examined more
than once and found lacking in es.
sential evidence. They are the
same cases that have come down
through the past years.
The fact is referred to that under
the earlier laws the allowances de-
creased from 50,l77 in 1873 to 9,977
10 years later. The arrears act
brought in a large number of new
claims, increasing the allowance
and the disability act of June 81,
1890, caused 563,797 claims to be
filed the next year. AS most of
these claims were meritous and
simple as 10 PROOF under that law
and under order 164, which went
beyond the law and rated. disabili-
ties as if of service origin, the
work was easy and an expert ex-
aminer could glance over the pa
pers and allow so or more in day.
Most of the force of special ex-
aminers were called in and put at
this work. Difficult cases, and such
as were lacking in proof or suspi-
cious in respect 10 merit or requir-
ing special examination, were pass
ed over, and now constitute a large
part Of the cases coming up for ad-
judication. New claims of all kinds
have fallen off from 363,799 in 1891
to 40,l48 in 1894, the fact being that
original claims for pensions under
existing laws are substantially all
