OUR STATE MlsRepREseNTED.
The Second Auditor Corrccts WIsstate-
ment-The Government Owes Her
Half Million.
. Ia E,lilor al Ihe DisnaIch:

To nc E,tii0r Of Hie Dispatch:
An Alexandria correspondent under date
of April 2lth reports Judge Critcher, who
IS called "o one Of the agents for the cOllec-
ti0n of the States claim for the money she
advanced the Government in the war Of
19l9.D as speaking Of the claim the Gov
ernment has against Virginia for the half
million of Indian trust fund she borrowed
of IL with which TO build tho Washington
monument at Richmond. and on which she
has paid only six months interest since the
the war;" etc.
Now. in the first place. Virginia never
borrowed the money at all in the sense ot
the word as used by Judge Critcher. She
placed her bonds on the market for the
construction of the James River and Ma
nawha canal, and they were purchased by
the Secretary of the Interior. The total
amount thus purchased was S58l 500. Of
TINS sum the great bulk. t56S, 200 was pur-
chased July 7. 1860, and the Washington
monument was completed, paid for, and
unveiled on the pod February, 1858. two
years and four months before this larger
debt was created The smaller sum, 3d.
600. was purchased in various items IN
1852. which was before the monument was
commenced.
As 10 the payment of "only six months
interest since the war" HLoi is another mis-
take. Six months interest on the prln-
cipal sum would be Sl7,45t. But the
books of the Second Auditors Office show
the following:
Cash paid Indian trust fund by order Of
the Commanding-G General. r. X. >; Candy.
without legislative APPROPRIATION therefor /;
August ., 1853. 63.................' .''.'''''s51'VO
March ,, 1870. '.......... s'x'2
Total. Soo.~ :
This sum is the interest on ten years and
eight months. or 1872 months more than hr.
Critcher is reported as crediting the State
with.
On the other hand the interest due 10
the State Of Virginia by the United States
on two sums-one due ninety-nine years
ago aud the other erseventy-eight years ago
aggregate 81, ,654. 1926, on which not one
cent has ever been paid.
