Mexican Pension Bill Passes Senate for $8 Month Pensions
The Mexican pension bill was reported and passed by the Senate. It directs the interior secretary to place on the pension roll surviving officers and enlisted men who served sixty days in the Mexican war, or who fought in battles, and their widows, qualifying them for $3 monthly pensions after the act’s passage. Existing pensioners are unaffected, and the pension difference up to $8 applies for those below that amount. The bill excludes disabilities from the late rebellion.
