Washington Currency Notice and Pension Fraud Scrutiny
In Washington on August 8 1887 the Comptroller of the Currency required national banks to file full statements as of August 1 or face fines and Treasury proceeds. July saw 10 816 names added to pension rolls amid GOP criticisms of Union veterans policy. A forged widow’s claim raised questions of pension fraud, while two West Virginia men were arrested on forgery charges. Public Printer Benedict defended appointments against Tribune accusations, noting many employees are Union veterans or their widows or children protected by statute.
