Point Which Involves a Considerable

Point Which Involves a Considerable
Number Of Pension Claims.
WAsHIeToN, June 3. The question as
to the termination Of the civil war,
raised by Assistant Secretary ReyonIds
Of the interior department, in a recent
pension decision, has given rise to con
siderable discussion. The case in ques-
ton was that of John BarIeyoung, a
soldier who had entered the army April
26, 1856. He applied for a pension IN
der the three months act, claiming that
the war did not terminate until Aug
ust 90 1866; when President johnson.
by proclamation, announced that peace
had been restored. Secretary Reynolds
claimed that active hOstilities ceased
in April, 1860, nine months before
BarleyOnng enlisted. He said further:
'It is not believed that congress in
tended to pension those whose Fendi-
ton of service, military or naval, had
no connection whatever with the bel
Ggerent operations Of the war. we're
not upon the theateF of the conflict
and had nothing to do with the object
and purposes Of the war"
For these reasons the claim was dis
allowed. The effect of the decision is
to exclude a large number Of persons
who entered the service between July.
1860, and May, 1866, from the opera
tlons OF the pension law. Since the de-
cislon was made it has been ascertain /
ed that the supreme court in Deem
Der, 1884, held that the war did not
terminate until the date of the presi-
dents proclamation, on Aug. 20, 1856.
The case then decided was under the
captured and abandoned property
act, which authorized loyal owners of
such property to bring suit for its re
coVeTy In the court of claims within
two years after the suppression of the
rebellion. The court held expressly
that the question of date of determine
ton OF the war was not to be left to
each claimant to settle, bat was to be
determined by some formal public act
OF the government; that the first off
clal declaration on the point was the
presidents proclamation; and that con-
gress had expressly adopted this date
as that on which the rebellion ended.
The opinion closed as follows: "As
congress in its legislation for the army
has determined that the rebellion
closed on Aug. 20, 1866, there is no rea-
son why its declaration on this sub
Ject should not be received as settling
the question wherever private rights |
are affected by it."
In view Of this decision and the |
large number of persons involved, the
Barleyoung case will probably be re-
opened.
