HIS WAR RECORD GIVEN PREPARING NEW STATUTE
DUDLEY'S PENSION BILL.
Senate Amended Ii So as To Make
Monthly Allowance $72 Month and
so it will Probably Stand-MiIitary
Services are Matter of Record.

Probably the most interesting of the
many pension bills introduced for
prominent Indianians says a Washing
ton dispatch is one for the relief OF
Col. William w. Dudley, who used to
be called Blocks of Five Dudley by
his political enemies out in Indiana.
Col. Dudley is one of the mildest and
most deserving of men. Representa-
tive Fred Lands introduced a bill to
increase his pension from SAC a month
which he is now drawing under the
general law for the loss Of his right
leg at the knee, to 800 month. The
house amended the bill and passed it
at $72 month. In all probabilities it
will pass the senate also. Col Dudley
is now GA years old. After describing
his military services as an Indiana
volunteer the house committee on in
valid pensions in it's report says:
He was hit by a partially spent
ball under the knee at the second Bull
Run battle and again in the fleshy
part of his lower left leg on Sept. II,
1862, but continued with his regiment,
participating in all the marches, ,skir-
mishes, etc, until he fell at Gettys-
burg wounded severely in the right
leg. He suffered double exsection Of
his right leg and remained under medi-
cal treatment until an amputation of
his leg took place followed by hemor-
rhages and a third operation, cutting
off his leg at the knee"
Lost His Savings.
In November, 1891, while he was on
visit to a sick son at Aston, Mass,
he accidentally caught his left foot in
a frozen wheel rut and his heel and
ankle caused him great pain at times!
To add to his many misfortunes he
lost all of his savings in an enterprise
for the construction of a railroad be-
tween Washington and Baltimore
which did not pan out.

EIGHT CLAIMS ALLOWED
PENDING FOR SOME TIME
Judge Fox Gives Persons for Whom
John Bowman Held Bonds, Right to
Collect What They Can from Estate
of Deceased Banker.

Eight claims, aggregating nearly
$1,000, were allowed yesterday in the
Circuit Court against the estate of the
late John Bowman. These claims
have been pending for several weeks,
and were for bonds and interest on
bonds that were deposited with John
Bowman, when he was cashier of the
defunct Commercial Bank Of Hagers-
town, and which were used by Bow
man without the authority of their
owners.
In nearly every case, the amounts
allowed were the same as those ask
ed by the claimants. Frank Geisler
had a claim on file which was not ia
ken up yesterday, owing to the fact
that there was not sufficient evidence
present. There was no argument in
the other cases, and Judge Fox allow
ed the claims after a short examina-
ton.
