four ships hit by II or 13-inch pro-
jectiles She has two of that size
clean through her, and the position of
one would tend to demonstrate that it
was fired by the Texas. An S-inch
shell, undoubtedly from the Brooklyn,
because she was the only ship in line
With the Maria Terea's head as she
turned westward, entered just forward
Of the beam on the port side and ex-
ploding inside cleaned out the deck
with four guns crews. This is the
shot that Cervera said came from the
Brooklyn and set fire to the ship. The
Teresas difficulty, and one that COM
PEELED her hurried surrender, was that
all her fire mains We're cut, and she
was unable to extinguish the fires that
were driving her men from the guns
The Almirante OQuendo, an armored
cruiser same class as the Vizcaya and
Teresa went through the most terri
BILE ordeal Of any Of the ships. except
the torpedo boats. Her upper works
were one ragged mass Of cut up steel,
and her decks were covered with dead
and dying. She was hit on the port
side four times by S-inch shells, three
times by 4-inch shells, probably from
the Iowa: two times by 6-inch shells,
and forty-two times by 6-pounders
The innumerable number of 1-pounders
that struck her show that she met
the fire of the entire fleet as she
turned last out of the harbor. The
torpedo boats followed her, and the
secondary battery shots intended for
them hit her. When she returned to
the shore it was in a dilapidated con-
dition
One of the findings of the Board of
Survey was that an S-inch shell had
struck the forward turret just where
the gun opening was. and that every
man in the turret was killed, the officer
standing in the firing hood being still
in that position. Another fact learned
was that the tprpedoes in some of the
ships were already loaded in the tubes
and prepared to fire

DETROIT, July 23.-Dissatisfaction
over the Judges decision giving the
last heat of the 2:22 class trotting to
D. L. c. marred to-day's sport at Crosse
Point track. Much money had been
placed on True Chimes on the auctions
for this race. Both he and D. L. c..
got two heats. In the final heat D. l..
c. was leading in the stretch and Anita
S. came with a rush, and the crowd
thought she tipped the bay horse. The
Judges, however thought differently,
and awarded the heat to D. L. c. Then
a cry went up from the spectators, who
thought that If Anita S. had been given
the heat, Geers could have the sixth
heat from D. L. c. Cries of robbery"
went up, but the Judges were firm,
saying D. L. c. had a head the best of
of it. In neither the Judges nor tim
ers stand was there any other opinion,
so it would seem d. L. G. won the heat
all right. True Chimes, with two heats
to his credit, broke badly in the fol-
lowing two and was out of it. Geers
had him on his feet better in the fifth,
and the bettors thought he could have
captured the sixth had not the Judges
made their decision against Anita S.

CLAIMS AGAINST
UNITED STATES,
And How They Are Prosecuted
and Collected.

Uncle Sam is one of the very biggest busi-

solid Treasury Building on Pennsylvania
avenue, Washington, which serves him as a
general counting room, there flows every
year, in peaceful times, from $3.50, 900, 900 to
$500, 600, 900, and it nearly all flows out
again to meet the heavy expenses of the null
tifarious operations that he conducts The
lowest point in his revenues in the last 10
years was in 1894, when he took in but $297,-
722, 019, and the highest was in 1890, when
he took in $403 OS0, 993. His lowest ordi-
nary expenditure was in 1888, when he paid
out S267, ,924, ,sO1, and his highest was in 1898,
when he disbursed 1888, AT, ,954. The an
nualexpenditures of other large Governmental
establishments are about as follows:

Italy. 337, S69, ,552
Russia. 495, 59S, 718
Austro-Hungary 617,62S,000
In his business transactions of nearly
81 900, 600, 600 of receipts and expenditures
annual ly, Uncle Sam has transactions OF the
most various character and magnitude,
ranging from papers of pins and boxes of
pens to the purchase of groups of Asiatic |
islands. He has more unimprOved real
estate that would make several of the largest
European Empires outside of Russia, and |
this is full of possible farms, mines, lumber,
water-power etc, which he wants developed.

likely contingency. But the more rigid and
general these rules, the more likely that con-
tingencles will arise calling for exceptional
action. Every war brings in host of new
conditions and questions; every advance of
the line OF settlement into wild country
brings them in; every change in the revenue
laws brings them in; every development on
older lines brings them in. The Executive
Departments try TO settle these claims with
the aid and advice of the Department of
Justice. but when they fail, recourse must lie
had to the courts and Congress.
The State Department has charge of all
claims arising out of the acts of foreign
Governments against our citizens.
The Treasury Department has constantly
before it multitude of claims relating to
the collection Of customs and internal revenue,
the regulation Of shipping and quarantine,
maintenance of lighthouses, life-saving sta
tiOns, etc, through all the mutifarious func-
tIons with which this important Department
is charged.
The Navy Department has charge of all
claims arising from the building and main
tenance of war vessels, supplying the Navy
with millions Of dollars worth annually of
coal, food, clothing, munitions, etc.
The War Department has charge OF all
claims arising out OF its annual expenditure
of $24, 600, 900 for the support of the Army,
the improvement of rivers, harbors, ETC.
The Interior Department has charge of all
land, pension, patent and Indian claims,
and directs the expenditure of about $780,
600, 900 year for these.
The Postoffiie Department directs the
expenditure Of between 10000, 900 and
$50, 900, 900 a YEAR, and has charge of all
claims of railroads, steamboats,, and other
mail-carriers for compensation, the rent of
postollices, payment for supplies furnished,
and salaries of Postmasters, clerks carriers,
etc
The Departments of Justice and Agricul-
ture have comparatively few claims before
them.
When q Department cannot or will not
settle claim, recourse is had to the courts,
and finally to Congress for special act.
The demands upon Congress for special legis-
lation of this class became so onerous that
in 1876 it created Court of Claims, to which
should be referred a large class of these cases,
and its jurisdiction has ben much broadened
by subsequent acts.
In future articles we shall discuss in detail
the rules of practice, and methods Of pro-
cedure, etc, in prosecuting claims before
Congress, the Supreme Court, Court of
Claims, the various Departments, and their
several Bureaus, with some gossip about
famous cases, claimants and attorneys.
