A CONTRACTORS TROUBLES.
Campbell X. Peck's Suit Against the

Government.
It appears that Campbell K. Peck is
the principal party in interest in the
case Walter H. Sanborn is now here
takingl testimony for. Last year Mr..
Peck entered into contract to furnish
wood and hay for the posts on the
Yellowstone. The wood contract,
amounting to SOL 900 or thereabouts,
was filled at the rate of SIS per cord,
but the hay contract was not, for two
reasons: First, the government de-
clined to furnish Peck the proper escort
as protection against the Indians, and
second, there was no grass to cut. The
government paid Peck some $4,000 on
his wood contract and withheld the
balance to pay for the hay that Leigh
ton & Jordan transported from Buford
to the Tongue river at $3.50 per ton.
There are other claims by Peck for
damages and the whole amount involved
before the U. S. Court of Claims, where
the merits of his case will be heard, is
over $4,000. The hay contract, it is to
be understood, was subsequently filled
by Leighton & Jordan at $3.50 per ton
and they were paid the same. Peck is
asked to make that good by forfsiting
his wood claim, on the ground that he
was required to fill contract that was
a physical inoossibilitv.
