The Times Washington special says, Judge
Holt chief Of the bureau of military justice,
gave an opinion yesterday promulgated by
ordcr Of the secretary Of war, constituting the
I'd and Sd sections OF the act Of Congress,
passed July 18th, 1864. which provides that
all Gains of loyal citizens in States not in
rebellion, for quarter mastcrs stores and for
subsistence actually furnished to the army
of the L. s., and receipted for by the proper
officers receiving the same or which may
have been gotten without a receipt, may be
submitted respectively to the quartermastcr
general and commlssary general, and if
found just, de- the last named officers shall
recommend the claim to the third auditor for
settlement. Judge Holt holds that to justify
the action contemplated by the I'd and Sd
section of the act of July 4th. "a, not only
must the claimant be loyal citizen, but the
claim also must originate i'm loyal State
The words claims of loyal citizen in States

be allowed, is question so complicated with
political and other considerations, proper
for the determination of Congress, that it is
believed that the executive administration
should not assume to act on such claims
without the clearest authority conferred by
law. 1t is not supposed to have been the
intention of Congress to bestow such author

WASHINGTON. Nov. 3O.-The Times
special says:
The report Of the Secretary Of War is
ready for delivery. 1t will satisfy the
country that the same vigor characterizes
that department in reducing the army to
peace footing. which marked its action in
the prosecution Of the war. On the lst Of
May 'ast We had in field and hospitals one
million five hundred and three men, This
has already been reduced to one hundred
ard sev .nty five thousand. The process of
reduction is still going on. BY the first Of
July next the army will consist Of $4,000
men, which the Secretary deems sufficient
for state Of peace, and he will ask for $780,
00O, 900 only for the year.
A list Of some 300 general officers to be
mustered out is ready, but as Congress has
not allowed general officers any additional
pay after the date Of their being mustered
out, an opportunity will probably be given
to remedy this injustice.
