DEPRECIATION CLAIMS
DE WITT TALKS OF HIS
OFFICIAL DUTIES
In California Looking up the Merits
Of Appeals for Restitution-Big
Amounts Involved

Judge T. H. Dewitt, assistant attor-
ney-general of the United States, was
In the city yesterday and gave a Herald
reporter some idea of the magnitude of
the Indian depreda ton claims which he
Is investigat ting on behalf of the govern
ment. 1t is Judge DeWitt's duty to
gather evidence in the cases presented by
sufferers from Indian outbreaks, and
incidentally to quell the soaring ambi-
ton OF those disposed to make Uncle
sam return golden calf for broken
down steer that Indians may have con-
verted into jerked beef
Not many people," says Judge De-
Witt, have any idea of the magnitude
or these claims. In almost every case
the claimants are residents of the coun-
try west of the Mississippi, though in a
lew rare instances removal of families
mas caused claim to be sent in to head
quarters from the far east. The claims
that am now handling will amount to
not less than $50, 600 900, scattered all over
the west. In Phoenix, Ariz., resides C. A.
Luke, who alleges a claim against the
government of 1886, ,OOO He says that he
was IN MoJave county, Arizona, in 1866,
mining valuable property when Indians
exterminated the entire company except
hiihselr and destroyed all the valuable
mining appurtenances. This he asked a
latherly government to return. The in,
Vesslgatlon have made shows that Mr..
Luxe was merely prospector, and that
the Indians did give him a chase in that
year, though he escaped unharmed. AT
lrst the government was about to allow
MIN a saddle and bride mentioned
among the things lost, but investiga ton
SHOWS that these We're also recovered
so Mr.. Luke gets nothing.
Formerly these claims were handled
by the senate, but fraud was so evident
in many cases that finally, by act of
congress in 1891, the Indian depreciation
claims were turned over to the depart
ment of justice, the attorney general
and his assistants being naturally the
government lawyers. 1t is my duty to
collect the evidence in the various
claim cases, and when the case is COM
plete the claim is tried in the court of
claims at Washington. If successful the
claimant receives his warrant by appro-
priation of congress.
i am now going to northern Califor-
MIA, where 1 shall investigate about
$1,000, 900 worth Of claims In Southern
California l have merely been hunting
witnesses for outside claims, though the
last time was here 1 paid attention TO
an $4,000 claim made by a resident of
Santa Ana. Very few people realize the
magnitude of the Indian depredations
claims against the government"

When We Demoralize the stomac,

By excesses or imprudence in eating, We

of that important function. But supposng
that we have been foolish enough to en-
feeble the stomach, is the damage ire

only to do two things to insure his ultimate
recovery. First, he should adopt an easily

regularity and persistence, Hostetter

vigorant of the age. The multiform symp-
toms of dyspepsia and the almost in
variable attendant disorders, biliousness
and constipation, will assuredly cease to

is attended to. Who that has suffered the
