said isslonsr of Pensions War'
ner. toda , in speaking of the pension
roll. "but never until the McCumber
service pension bill became a law was
there a means of determining any-
thing about its extent. The unknown
army has come to be so called large
iy because its members did not apply
for pension.
This they did not do on account of
various reasons of delicacy, pride or
Indifference, but most of these causes
have been removed by the passage of
the service law. and most of the un-
knowns, those who have never hereto-
fore asked for pensions. are coming to

possible pension claimants. Certainly
the entire number will not exceed 5.-
000. The other 275,000 applications
are all for increase and were made by
men whose names have been on the
rolls in the past)“
' Mr. Warner is of the opinion that the
great bulk of applications on account
of the McCumber law have been re-
ceived. When the law first went into ef-
fect the applications were received in
enormous quantities as many as 20.-
000 coming in in one day. The number
has now fallen to about 4.000 a day and
is rapidly diminishing.
The records of the nsion oillce
show that 2,351 of the‘ ivil War pen-
sioners died in February. but there
are still 652.488 of them left on the
pension rolls.
