THE PRIVATE LAND CLAIMS COURT.
A Ruling Under Which Its Officers Cannot
Yet Ise Paid.
[By telegraph to the DIspatch.l


WASHINGTON. July 13.-first-C Comptroller
Matthews made ruling to-day that the
Judges and other officers of the Private
Land Claims Court. organized June 18TH
under act Of the last Congress, can receive
no compensation for their services until
they shall have been confirmed by the
Senate. These appointments were made
by the President in MAY last in accordance
with the opinion of the'Attorney- General.
The First Comptroller said this afternoon
that he had not passed on the question as
TO whether a newly-created Office can be
legally filed during a recess of the Senate.
He had merely decided that q person ap-
pointed to an Office of that kind cannot
legally be paid a salary until he shall have
been confirmed by the Senate. Unless he
modifies this rule no money will be adj
vanced by the Treasury Department TOR
the salary or expenses of this court until
next December at least. This leaves al
fairs in this position: The Attorney
General says the President can appoint the
officers of the court; they are appointed,
and then the Comptroller says they can re-
ceive no pay for months. A North Caro-
lima man-HoD. I. G Fuller, of Raleigh
is q member of the court.
