Alarm over pension surge post Spanish American War
Washington reports from the Pension Bureau show a growing tail of claims far exceeding the number of soldiers in actual field service. About 41 000 applications for pensions tied to the short war have been filed from a total enlistment of 274 717, with roughly 60 000 serving in the field. In nine months 2 664 pensions were granted for Spanish American service, a third to widows, and March 31 sees 995 096 on the pension roll from all wars. The Civil War deaths keep the postwar pension totals rising, with no rapid decline expected under liberal laws.
