OWES US A MILLION.
UNITED STATES INDEBTED TO Wiz
GINA IN THAT SUM.
STATES LAST CLAIM WILL Be PAID.
The Virginia Omcinis Feel Confident
That the Last Hold-Up by the
Comptroller of the Treasury is
Only Temporary.

The chief topic OF conversation among
the officials at the Capitol and State
Library yesterday was the refusal of the
Controller Of the Treasury to permit the
payment OF Virginlas claim of 5000 due
for supplies furnished Virginia troops
when preparing them for the field last
spring
This money was paid. practically. at the
request OF the Secretary OF War. This
official said ne would be glad II the State
would complete the equipment of the
men so far as clothing was concerned
and about 5000 was expended from the
State Treasury for shoes and underwear.
Acknowledgement Stern succeeded ia get
ting Secretary Alger to order the pay
ment of this bill several weeks ago, and
President Mckinley has also promised
Governor Tyler that IL should be paid.
The holdup of the Controller was a great
surprise to the Virginia officials, and II is
not thought that more tnan temporary
delay will be caused thereby.
THE GOVERNMENTS OFFSET.
The Controller contends that the Ma
tional Government holds the bonds Of the
State TO the amount of $4,000. and that
II has never been able to collect principa
OF interest. This debt was an Indian
fund. held in trus; by the Secretary of the
Interior, and about 1851 invested by him
In Virginia bonds.
The Controller also claims that Virginia
owes the Government of the Uniteu
States $4,000. on another account. The
origin of this alleged Indebtedness is moi
known here. 1t is thought that it repre-

of troops furnished by West Virginia To
the Union during the civil war. This
debt was saddled on TO Virginia. In

In the Henrico County 'CouN yesterday
December 18th was agreed upNa as the
day upon which James Penrose carter
shall again be placed on trial for the muir
der of Charles Fox Moore.
Carter was taken into court ABOUT IL
O'Clock yesterday morning, and after a
short conference between his counsel emo
Commonwealth's-At Sands, the lo'N
ter made motion, naming the date as
set forth above, and the defence raising
no objection, the Court granted the mo-
ton. 1t had been the purpose OF couhsei
for the defence to ask for bail, but they
decided that it would be useless 10 make
any such request, and the prisoner was
returned TO jail.
Carter, though pale and haggard In APP
pearance. was cheerful, and seems well
satisfied with the result Of his former
trial.
