      Contract — when State, liable. Where work has been performed for the benefit of the State, and is accepted by the State, claimant is entitled to an award for the amount of its claim.

   Mr. Chief Justice Clarity

delivered the opinion of the court:

This is a claim for the handling of the statues of ex-Governors Palmer and Tates from a spot south of the Centennial ■ building to their present permanent site. It appears that the work has been done and that the balance claimed by claimant is just as the defendant, through its Attorney General comes into court and consents to its allowance.

It is therefore' considered by the court that the claim amounting to $119.08 be allowed.
