CUBAN WAR CLAIMS.
The Applications for Pensions I'm.
der the Recent War Small.
NOT A HUNDRED CLAIMS YET FILED.
The List Of Troops to BE Mu.tersd ont OF
the Army Nearly Com oists-AIi the
Volunteer Cavalry TO lie
Disbanded.

Washington, Aug. 24.-In the forth
coming annual report of the commits
sioner of pensions, Mr.. H. Clay Evans,
it will be shown that on June 30. 1897,
there were on the rolls of the pension
bureau 976,0t4 pensioners. To this
must be added q. $50 original claims
granted, but not recorded. aud 76}
restorations which were not entered
at the time on the books. Commits
sioner Evans granted So original
claims during the past year and re-
stored 4.0S9 pensioners To the benefits
of pensions. The pensioners now ag-
gregate l,O40. 1855. More pensions were
granted last year than at any time
from 1869 up to 1850.
There is absolutely no means of even
approXimating what the claims will
be under the recent war. The pension
ofice has done nothing with the
Claims that have been filed up TO this
time. They do not aggregate 100 aud
for the most part are claims OF widows
and the next of kin for the soldier
boys who fel, before Santiago. Before
claim can be perfected IL must con
tain the full record OF the soldiers
service, and this information has not
yet been compiled BY the war depart
ment. When this is done, the claims
will be speedily taken up. The ma
jority of the claims will be for wounds
and sickness, the latter leaving the
soldiers more or less d sa bled. No ad-
djtional legislation will be required to
deal with the cases arising from this
war. The present laws, the authori-
ties say, cover all that is necessary,
and claims will be adjudicated on the
same lines as those of the rebellion.
THE ORDER FOR MASTERING OUT.
Washington, Aug. "a. 1T is expected
that the order for mastering out 100,-
900 men of the volunteer forces will be
issued to-day. The list of troops to
be mustered out is nearly complete,
but some changes may be made before
the order is finally signed. This will
reduce materially the number of
troops in the different camps.
senator Hansbrough. of North Da-
kota, had a conference with the presi-
dent yesterday in behalf Of Grigsby's
rough riders. who are anxious to be
kept in service and sent to either
Cuba or Porto Rico. The senator
learned that 1t had peen ueclueu To
muster out all of the volunteer cav
airy. but that it may be possible for
cavalrymen wishing to remain in
the service to be dismounted aud kept
as infantrymen.

Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1898-09-29

Union party is an Gopen book, and
we do not understand that this
organization seeks to represent
any more or any less of the people
than are shown on its books.
The people this party does repre-
sent have shower themselves to
be strong American element.
The anger of the Advertiser is due
to the fact it's constituents have
lost the following of the strong
minority without gaining any adj
ditional support from Hawaiian
and Portuguese majority. Ii the
American Union party has been
too honest in making public what
it desires, this is fault which the
Advertiser constituents can never
be accused of.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL EMERGENCY

Uuless the BULLETIN is mixed
i ! its dates, the last emergency ap
pr Dpristion made by the Council
of State WAS $4,000. for Presl-
dent Dole's trip to Washington.
Without seeking to detract from
the importance of Mr.. Dole's trip,
it seems fair to place the Industrial
School item on par with this last
appropriation as regards the
emergency part of it. The
Supreme Court has declared that
he Council is snswerable to no
one on the score of what matters
1t considers proper to act upon.
This decision is unexpected but
the Supreme Court says 80 and
that ends it. The funds soon to
be asked for are to be used in the
development of our educational
system, the importance of which
no one can discount. The Board
of Education, seems to have made
very good bargain on the, pro
perty purchased. The m at i'm
portant feature however is the fact
that delay now means a delay in
establishing an industrial school
for girls. No one can deny that
there should be some provision
for unfortunate hayward girls
other than Oahu prison. 1t has
been shown that to thrust young
people into prison tends to con.
tinuance in a life of crime. BY
putting forward the restraining
hand offered by the industrial
school system, many boys and
girls are saved from the paths of
sin. Unless it can be clearly
shown that the Legislature posi-
