Twelve million dollars are in The
treasury awaiting the claims of right
full owners men whose cotton was
seized after the war. The prosecution
of these claims is barred by Il statute
of limitations specially passed, and dne
of the measures that was prepared but
not pressed at the present session. Of
Congress was o. bill for the repealof
The limitation not. Three New York
ers, one said to be the largest cotton
broker in the world, are back OF The
scheme, and will press it at tho next
session OF Congress.
gs After the close Of actual hostilities
in 1865 cotton was seized throughput
the South and sold. Secretary Chase
was doubtfulof theright Of the govern
ment to do this, and the same doubt
rankled in the mind Of William E.
Chandler, at that time acting secrpta
ry of the treasury and now q Senator
from New Hampshire. The doubt was
SO strong in Mr.. Chandler's mind that
he would not use the proceeds of the
sale, but organized q division in The
treasury department which no called
the "Division ofAbandoned Property
and Lands" which is stillin existence
He then turned all Of the proceeds of
seized property, consisting of about
80, 600 bales of cotton, great quantities
Of tobacco, sugar and rice, together
with some turpentine, tar and rosins,
over to William i. Noerr, chief ofIthe
new division.
In 1874 Gazaway e. Lamar, a high
official in the New Y York Bankof Com.
merce, Georgian by birth and a com
mission merchant, retained sAi,e late
General Benjamin Il. Butler and ex-
Attorney General George III. Williams
as his counsel in suit against the
United States to recover 5000, 900, the
proceeds of the sale Of cotto0 taken by
United States troops. When Lamar
secured his verdict Of 5000, 900. Robert
O. Schenck, of Ohio, late Minister to
the Court Of st. James, was chairman
Of the committee on ways and means.
Believing that a raid would be made
on the treasury by holders of claims,
he introduced n bill creating statute
of limitations, thus barring the prose.
cution of this class of claims.
In this way the money has reml ined
in the treasury. It has been invested
in the United States bonds, and now
amounts to the enormous sum Of
$4,000, 900. Outside Of four or five
Southern Senators, it is doubtful if
any one knows the true situation a
The legislation which the New York
syndicate wants passed is very simple.
ltconsists ola five lihe resolution re-
pealing the statute Of limitations
against these claims, and allowing
them to be sent to the United States
Court of claims for adjudication.

A Terpible Eartl,o,,nke

YOKOHAMA, June IL News Of a ter
rible disaster, involving the loss Of
over a thousand lives, has reached here
from the Island of Yesso, which con-
tains the Northern provinces of Japan,
including Shirebeshe, Oshima, Nurl,
Hitaka, Tokacvhi. Ishikari, Kirshiro.
Teshiwo, Kitami and Nelnoro. Ali
these sections of the island seem to
have been more o. less shaken. The
subterraneous disturbance lasted about
twenty hours and during that period
the utmost terror prevailed. The
ground rumblings are described as re-
sembling the roaring of distant can
non. Shock followed shock in ain, ost
uninterrupted succession about oYery
eight minutes. In all it is estimated
there were 100 shocks of more or less
force. 1t is impossible to obtain for
the present accurate details of tho dis
aster as communicated between the
mainland Of Japan Qsland Of Hondo)
and Yesso, from which the former is
separated by tho Strait Of Tsugaru,

more likely. in the hands OF ,taui
thorities. The whole town oi l&uilla-
shat, however, is reported to have
peeIl ucstfOyeu. Inc aWful serves OF
earthquake shocks were accompanied
by tidal wave, and it is believed that
it will be the onrush Of a giant wave
from the sea which practically wiped
out tho town Of Kumaishi, which is
situated towards the Japan sen on a
narrow neck OF land separating it
from Volcano Bay on tho Pacific side
of the island The island of Yesso has
tions and contains active and extinct
volcanoes Rumors have it that the
number of lives lost and tho amount
of damage done is far in excess of the
figures contained In the brief dispatch,

has been asked for and is expected
shortly. II is sfeared that disasters to
