The State Has d Bag Claim Against the
Federal Government.
MADISON, Wis, Aug. 16.-The State
of Wisconsin Is about to sue the United
States for 80, 975, 0O5. The claim is for
munitions Of war, etc., furnished in
1861, which were paid for only in part
by the United States under the act OF
July 81, 1861, and for interest on de-
ferred payments. The attorney general
called the governors attention to the
matter in a letter, and the latter author
ICES him to bring suit. In detail the
states claim Isl. Interest upon state
bonds, $i4s, 273.O9; interest paid upon
the certificates of Indebtedness, S., 1926,
65S.07; discount upon bonds sold,
$276, 709.3l; balance still due the State
of Wisconsin upon original indebted
ness, s., 929, 265.So; total, $7,975, 0O5.77.
The statute of limitations is the only
possible obstacle, it is thought, against
the recovery of the claim.
