feet the provisions of the act OF Con-
gress authorizing the Secretary of the|
Treasury TO deliver. to the rightful
owners certain articles of iswelry, etc.
captured by the United States army
during the civil war and deposited in!
the Treasury Department. Mr. Krites
has accordingly prepared rules and
regulations which will govern the
restora tion of all such articles, and has
Just concluded an examination of the
articles on deposit. They are contained
In two boxes and consist OF silveware,
jeweley, portraits, watches, e5o.
One Of the boxt 8 contained nearly 800
watches, gold, silver and brass, and q
number Of jack knives. pocket books,
letters, etc. These were mainly taken
from prisoners Of war, who died in hos
pitfalls around Washington, Cape Look
out and e mira, and were deposited In
the treasury by General Ketcham.
| Union soldiers who died during the war
near the places designated. The other
box contained lot of articles captured
by General Sherman's troops In Dam.
den, 8. O., in the early part of 1865.
They consist Of family plate, jewelry,
ETC., which had been deposited in q
bank at Camden by Mr.. McRae and
other wealthy residents of that section
When the Union Army approached the
town an effort was made to transfer the
articles to place of safety, but thu
troops came upon the scene while the
transfer was being made.
: Many Of the principal articles be
