Why this is it is impossible TO say. Perhaps the
criticisms of some of the Commissioners by the
press. and the enactment Of law requiring all OF
the Commissioners to sign every report, may have
caused them to be more careful than heretofore 1t
will be remembered that the President in his last
message refers to the allowing of claims by the
Court of Claims and says that nothing is more
certain than that very large percentage OF the
amounts passed and paid are either wholly frandu-
lent or are far in excess Of the real losses susaned

De unjust but there is doubt that IT might be APP
piled with great force to the Southern Claims Com
mission, before whom majority OF the claims
which the President seemed to have IN his mind
have come.
The amount OF claims that were fled with the
Southern Claims Commission was about $6O,OO0,-
600, of which from $4,000 to $4,000, amounting to
about $40, 600 600. still unadjnsted. Although
