Pensions Bill Passes Senate Committee and Apple Speculation Debacle
The senate pensions committee reports the Lafean bill as amended to raise widows and orphans pensions, granting $12 a month to widows married before the act and removing the prior June 27 1890 marriage restriction. Speculators who bought Berks county apples face $1,000,000 losses as storage glut and low prices force sacrifice.
