THEY WANT THEIR MONEY.
Worknen Want the City Attorney to
W Adjust a Claim.

EDITORS HERALD: In March last the
city council, or street superintendent,
entered into contract with a
certain street contractor for grading a
certain street for the sum of $500. The
work was done according to plans and
specifications and duly accepted in
March or April last, and yet most OF the
men are waiting for their pay. Three OF
the men attached the amount in the
hands Of the city and the council turned
the money over to thecity attorney fully
three weeks ago.
There seems to be no recourse for the
poor devils who did 5000 worth of work
and had only $500 to pay it with. Ii the
city attorney will adjust the claims he
will be doing charitable act.

Under What Conditions They May BE
Issued.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Attorney-Gen-
eral Miller has decided that the secre-
tary of the treasury has no authority
under the act of July II, 1890, to issue
treasury notes provided for by that act,
except in payment for bullion pur-
chased. But that the gain or
seignorage arising from the coinage
of bullion under the act, when
paid into the treasury becomes part OF
any other. The seignorage fund now
amounts to 100000, and under this
decision the issue of silver certificates
may be increased to that extent. Sec
retary Tracy is also considering the
proposition to issue silver certificates
against the 100000 in silver half
dollars now in the treasury.
