CHANGE IN PENSION AGENCIES.
Order Issued Reducing tine Numbel
0f Of3ceo.

of Omces.
The President has signed, on the recon-
mendation of Secretary Of the Interior
Francis, nm order reducing the number of
pension agencies In the United States
from eighteen TO nine. Ii will go into
effect Sept i. The object Is to effect a
large saving to the Government without
ineonveniencing the pensioners. The Sec
retary says the cost of disbursing pensions
can now be reduced by at least $15O,0OO
per annum.
The change was made possible by an
amendment In 1896 TO the law governing
the disbursing of pensions, requiring that
all pensioners should, after that date, be
paid by checks RENTED by mail. Re-
ports show that under this plan the pen
sioners are paid much more promptly, and
that the possibility of error is minimized.
They also advise that the benefciaries
receive their pensions by mail at their
homes. where, being surrounded by family
Influences the pensioner is much more
likely to make judicious disposition of
his pension money than has been too often
the case in the past.
The total cost for pensions and the dis
bursement thereof for the fiscal year end
ed June 30, 1896, was S142 ,206, ,55C. made
up as follows:
Payments to pensioners. ..S133..l5 176
Fees to examining surgeons. 6I2, ,5S7
Maintaining pension bureau
at Washington. ...... 2,753, 7GO
cost of maintaining pension
agencies ................ 65,027
1t is on this last item that the new order
s intended to save between $150,OO0 and
100000 per annum.
The following are the nine agencies and
he number of pensioners paid thereat
indcr the new order:
