Of this witness in that direction, but I do offer
Il m this 70 snow, N snswer 70 the statement
mace oy counsel on Sho oener ade, that there
was board Of sppraise. organized, and who
0Ht6fcQ 0DO0 0i0C00fR9 yneIf a..
for tue purpose OF providing means OF eompen-
sasmg caeceas los injury that they received.
The Chairman. lou can show that fact.
hf. Msttingiy. wtli ave him the trouble.
Our ans~Se s:ts up ehas such . board was ap-
pointed. He desires to prove BY this witness,
Indersf.nd, that ne presented . claim before
that hoard, and he has never been settled with.
Az understand it, nobody has been. settled
with, because the report OF that board has to
90 10 the nextL egislature, and an appropria-
ton from the Legislature Will 0s necessary BE-
lore those damages can be paid.
MI Christy. NOW we understand each other,
that no claim for damages OF this class has
been allowed or paid ior the rcason that you
assign. -,---..-. i,
Mr.. Mattfugty. Not that am aware OF. l
am mIs.nformed, or else # is as l stated.
The Chairman. think the witnesses you
have on tliis subject might asweil be discharged,
because think counsel can agree on the sub
stanttal matters connected whh that branch OF
that subject.
But II Will be Impossible to DO that ImmedI-
stely. will do Il before the adjournment Of
the committee. 49,. laa 49,. 800. a
