WASuIACTuN, January 2.-liepTesentatlve
Brown, OF the Sixteenth Pennsylvania dis.
trict, said tonight that the Claims Com
mittee, OF which he was member, would
have great deal OF work this Congress as
it had to pass upon all claims not created
by the war. Among the most important
matters that would come up for considera-
ton would be that in reiat'oh 10 the
French spoiaton claims. This question
has been pending since iSo2, aud he was IN
clined to think it was just claim and
ought to have been paid long ago. Still, 1t
would r, uure careful consideration as -
its merits, and the feeling Of the House aS
far Us c, uld he sscertaiued was favorable 10
n prompt settlement OF the Investigations
il the comm itrec justified such recon-
mendatiuu. Numerous petitions on TINS
subj. CT have already been presented to
Congress from boards OF trade and other
commercial bodies throughout the aited
states, and in every instance favorable "a
ton by Congress was urged, as 1t WAS
thought the question had been too long
dslayrd as far as a settlement was con:
cernCd. These claims have been pi'sel
uron by msny Congresses aud uniformly
fayorsbiy, though some hitch has always
