Mistake About Pensions.

Washington, Aug. 12.-The commits
sioner Of pensions to-day gave out the
statement that an erroneous impress.
sion seems to exist among many ex-
Confederate soldiers regarding the In
terpretutlon to be put upon the recent
act of Congress relieving Union SOL
diers of disabilities for having pre-
viously served In the Confederate
army.
The idea seems to prevail that under
this act the government Is authorized
to pension ex-Confederate soldiers, ana
the result Is that the pension office Is
being deluged with applications from
the former wearers OF the gray.
The commissioner explained that the
law In question does not contemplate
the pensioning of ex-Confederate SOL
diers, but that 1t was designed solely
to remove the disability which so long
existed In the case of men who were
impressed into the Confederate service
and later Joined the Union army.
