SOLICITOR McUE SAID TO HOLD THE OPINION THAT

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80 (Speeiah.-A rumor
which seems TO have had IT'S origin at Deer Park

Washing on, aud persons disposed TO credit
It. II is TO the eject that Solicitor McCue has pre-
pared opinion which he takes the ground that the
present Court Of Alabama Claims has legal existence
whatever because he Is informed the Judges and Of

functions OF the court we're extended by the
act Of June, 1884 The srst sec

extended TO the 31st day OF December In the 1885,
with the effect and ne other as said last named
day been named in said for the termination OF
the powers of said court The story seems Incredible,
and must be remembered that Solicitor McCues
superior orfcer has officially expressed the opinion
that contracts for the construction OF the steel
cruisers which nearly finished. In existence II
should also be remembered that when the act VI June,
1884 under discussion In the Senate the only
tors who opposed the extension by speeches
Messrs Bayard and Garland. The only Democratic
Senators who voted for the extension Messr Jonas
md Maxey. and Republican Senators voted against H.
