His Suit Against the Government De-
cided mt Last.
Word was received yesterday at the
United States sub-Treasury from the Treas
ury Department at Washington that a war
rant for S11,7S3 so had been made out in
favor Of John S. Mosby. This is the first
intimation received here that the long stand
Ing suit Of Colonel Mosby against the United
States Government had been decided.
During the administration of President u.
S. Grant Mosby, the once famous guerilla
cheitain, was appointed Minister to China.
While there he paid into the United States
Treasury certain sums which he afterward
claimed. His claim was denied, and he then
brought suit i'll the Court of Claims, and OBJ
tanned judgment, but the Government then
appealed to the Supreme Court, where the
case has since been pending. Yesterday
d; spatch would seem to show that the SUI
preme Court has sustained the Court Of
Claims in its Judgment.
Colonel Mosby left Los Angeles last

some time in business In the meanwhile
the money will await his appearance at the
Sub- Treasury.
