CLAIMS AGAINST UNCLE SAM.
Georgians Asking for Damages for
Destruction by Federal Soldiers.

Georgians Asking for Damages for
Destruction by Federal Soldiers
The claims against the United States gov
eminent brought by persons in Georgia for
property seized and destroyed during the
war are being heard by E. L Hackett. W.
R. Leaken, ESQ.,, represents the United
States in the cases. Since Mr.. Smith was
here few weeks ago taking evidence in the
claims, the government has not been repre-
sented.
A week ago Mr.. Leaken was appointed as
the governments attorney in the claims,
and the first case was heard yesterday
1t was the case of Henry Long.
farmer Of Liberty county. Several wit
nesses were sworn and their testimony was
taken. There was a hesitance upon the
part of the United States to send the claim
TO congress to be passed upon, for the reason
that, in the governments archives, a paper
was found in which one Henry Long, had
assisted confederate soldiers by giving them
horses and furnishing them supplies. Long
claims that it is a case of mistaken identity.
He said that his claim will aggregate 81 500
for horses taken by the federal army and
the destruction of supplies.
Four witnesses, all from Liberty county,
were examined, and their testimony tended
to corroborate the statement of Long.
There are several hundred of these cases.
and they are represented chiefly by Isaac
Beckett, Esq, A. H. Mcdonnell, ESQ, Hon.
P. W. Meldrim, U. FL. McLaws, ESQ.,, AL
fred NJ. Martin, Esq, and j. r. Saussy, E q,
The claims are brought for supplies de-
stroyed and stock taken.
An interesting claim brought bv Mile
Newmark, an undertaken of Savannah, will
come up this week. B. 1t is for collins
which he claims were confiscated
by the federal army. His claim
approximates $500 or 5000. Lowell g. Lat
timore are bringing in claim through Mr.
Beckett, U. Cranston is bringing claim
through Mr.. Meldrim, j. B. Epstein is also
bringing a suit to recover damages from
the government. A. V. LaRoche, ]. Lipp-
man, J. r. Mehrtens. T. Nugent. A. Russell,
j. Rosenbaum, A. Sheftall, and S. Wal
thour are among the long list of claimants
who lived in Savannah. These claims
against the United States amounted to
nothing until the passage of
the Bowman act, March, 1888.
those claimants who were able to prove
their loyalty, that is, who did not assist the
confederate army.
Mr.. Leaken, who represents the govern
ment, is constantly in communication with
the department. and he believes that the
administration is going to be very liberal
where there is any merit at all, or where
the claimants establish their LOYALTY.
In consequence of the great number of
claims, it is likely that the examination of
claims Will continue for three or four
months

Though Shaken Like a Leaf

By the most trivial causes, weak nerves

term which also imports, in this instance,
quietude. The nervous have but to use
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Systematically
to overcome that super sensitivCness of the
human sensorium, which is subversive of
all bodily comfort and mental tranquility,
and which reacts most hurtfully upon the
system. The difficulty underlying this, as
well as many other ailments, is imperfect
assimilation, on less than incomplete diges-
ton of the food In the discharge of both
the digestive and assimilativc functions,
the Bitters are the most potent, the most
reliable auxiliary. AS the body regains
vigor and regularity by its aid, the brain
and nervous system are also benefit ed.
Persons subject to the influence of malaria,
dyspeptic and rheumatic invalids, and per
sons whose kidneys are inactive, should
also use the Bitters.

Ladies who are not beautiful naturally

the charm are equally DESTROYS to prolong
its stay. The question is, as to the means.
"Glenn's Sulphur Soap solves the prob

plexion a transparency and smoothness of
porcelain which the fairest of her sex
might desire, and its effects are more per
manent than those of any of the deleterious
cosmetics in use. 1t gives to the face a
natural life-like tinge, removing every
blemish, and it has the great merit of being
a purely vegetable preparation. Beware
