THE LINE OF DUTY.
Pensioner Ordered to De Dropped
From the Rolls.

A Pensioner Ordered to De Dropped
From the Rolls.
Assistant Secretary Reynolds of the In
terror Department has overruled the deci-
sion of the last administration as to the
line of duty of soldiers holding that a SOL
der being engaged in private business and
not in the performance Of those things
which the law required Of him as a mill
tary duty, cannot be considered in the line
of duty. The last administration held very
broadly in the matter of line of duty, and
any injury received by soldier while In
the army was generally considered PEN
sionable. The case decided by Assistant
Secretary Reynolds is that of Henry A.
Helmer, eighth Indiana volunteers. The
claim was first rejected March ., 1885. and
Just at the close Of President Cievelands
former administration the action was af-
firmed, the department holding: I'm the
case under consideration 1t is clearly APP
parent that the statement in the certificate
that the injury complained of was received
by claimant while in the line Of his duty
was q mistaken conclusion on the part OF
the certifying surgeon. Riding horse Tor
personal pleasure against the protest Of
his CAPTAIN, who warned him of his danger
in attempting to ride a fractions horse
with whose habits claimant was already
well acquainted, cannot be regarded as in
any manner connected with claimants mil
itary duty"
A few months later the case was recon-
sidered and the claim allowed. This Is
now in turn overruled, and the commits
sioner Is directed to drop the claimants
name from the roll.
