Besides these existing claims, the
sum OF 81, l,90l, $50 Il had been pre-
sented and paid during the war, max
ing a total of S3,012, ,973 81 of claims
presented and prepared for presenta-
tion to the United States Treasury De
partment up to this time. Other claims
are frcm time to time audited by the
State Board, and the above amount
will be somewhat increased.
1t will, be of course, understood that
this statement only includes claims for
money expended BY the State Govern
ment. the reimbursement of which is
asked under the provisions of existing
laws of the United States.
This amount is a mere trifle compar-
with the total expenditures of the
State during the war, for local
bounties, etc, Of which the grand to-
tai off ciaIly expended by corporate au-
thorities, and excluding the immense
private contributions of every sort, is
shown by the report Of the Adiutanl
| General TO be more than sixty five
millions of dollars.
OF the claims presented to the Uni.
ted States Government, the sum of $57, i,
368 N was paid to me on account o
4 the Morgan raid claims, aud certifi,
edinto the Treasury on the 9th of MAJ
1 last.
OF the claims for clothing and feed
ing volunteers, the sum of 1881 go 0;
was, at the close of your last session
remaining gslSpsade1in the u. S. Treas
ury Department., for insufiioienCy 0
vouchers, or upon doubts Of the Fed
eral auditoas as to the legality of tn
charge. Many of the items originate,
in the beginning Of the war, when tn
routine of the army regulations oOul'
not possibly be complied with. Con
tracts with private parties for subsis
tence of troops had in several instance
been lost, and copies were required be
fore settlement could be made, 9th
