FORREST ]. MARTIN DEAD.

BANGOR, May 9. Forrest ]. Martin,
one of the most prominent members of
the Penobscot bar and member of the
faculty of the University of Maine Col
lege of Law, died very suddenly at an
early hour this morning of heart disease.
Mr.. Martin was born in Newport "a
years ago, graduated from the Maine
Central Institute in 1886 and from the
Boston University Law School in 1890,
taking cum laude honors. He began
practice in Clinton, but came to Bangor
about 20 years ago and had since been
associated with Howard F. Cook. In
1897 he was appointed professor of COM
mon law pleading in the University of
Maine College of Law, which he held to
the time of his death. He took much
interest in that branch of his work, and
made that part of the Law School course
especially strong. He was prominent
in Democratic politics, and always in de-
mand as campaign speaker. He was
elected to the Legislature in 1907, and
was candidate for Mayor of Bangor
several years ago. He was a leading
member Of the Penobscot Bar associa-
ton and of number of other organize
tons. His favorite diversion was high
bred dogs, and he was widely known as
an importer and breeder of Great Danes.
He is survived by his wife, who was
Clara r. Richardson of Clinton.

CA 8 TO RIA
CONFERENCE REPORT ON PENSION
BILL.

WASHINGTON, May S. The report of
the conference of the two houses of
Congress on the general service pension
bill was agreed to Tuesday by the Sen
ate. The bill will necessitate an average
increase of appropriations of $22, 900, 900
year for the next five years. The great
est increase will occur next year, when it
will reach S35, 000, 900.
WASHINGTON, May 10. The House
agreed today 173 to 81 to the conference
report of the general pension bill pro-
viding pensions up to 81 day for vet
Grams of the Civil and Mexican wars. 1t
now goes to the President for his sigma
ture. Many Democrats voted for the
bill with the Republicans. Rep. Kent
of California cast the only Republican
vote against it.
WASHINGTON, May II. The President
tonight signed the increased pension bill,
passed by the House and Senate. The
measure was signed and became law
just before midnight, in the executive
offices at the White House. A congress
sional committee including Senators Nc
Cumber and Burnham and Reps. Sher-
wood, the author of the original bill,
Adair, Russell and Carl C. Anderson,
was awaiting the arrival of the Presi-
dent when he reached the White House
OF his return from Princeton. He af-
fixed his signature to the bill in the
presence of the committee.
The pension bill agreed upon will in
crease the amounts paid to the old soldiers
and grade such payments according to
the present age of the veteran and upon
the length of his service. The arrange
ment seems to be as just as could be de-
vised, although it will increase the annual
expenditures of the Pension Department
by at least $25, O00,0 The principle
upon which the size of the pension is
fixed is upon a sliding scale-the older
the person and the longer his service the
larger the pension. For instance, vet
eran now 62 years old who served 80 days
gets $13 month, but if he served three
years the pension will be SIG, with inter-
mediate sums for shorter terms; the &C.
year man of 80 days service gets SIS;
the 70-year man of 80 days service gets
$18, rising to S25 for three years service;
and men who are rs years old get $21 a
month for 80 days service, rising to $50
for three years service. Those who were
wounded and are now unable to perform
manual labor, or who incurred disease in
line of duty in the war and cannot work,
are to receive $50 month without regard
to the length of their service.
