man of the Senate Committee on Claims,
stated that diligent search had been made,
and no such pa per could be found as pub

something over sixty hundred dollars. He
further stated that this so-called Sunday
Chronicle was probably the same as the Sun

mended the rejection of the claim.

case, and in no case more than that amount,

any portion of the $4,000 out of the S75,0OO
