Southern Cotton claims.

fRy Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot.)
Washington, Jan. 1S.-Southern Sen
atcrs express themselves as hopeful
over the prospects of securing legisla-
ton during the present session OF Con-
grcss looking to the refunding of mon
ey paid into the Treasury of the United
States soon after the civil war as the
result of the sale of cotton captured
by the Federal forces. There was orig
inally about S3OOOO.000 Of this money.
but n portion of it was paid to the
owners of the cotton soon after the
close of the war. The remainder was
left in the Treasury and has remained
there ever since. Senator Money, who
is giving especial attention looking to
the rcopcning of the subject. says that
the sum left amounts to about $11 900, :
600. A bill introduced by Senator Davis
gives one year additional time for proof
of such claims before the Court of
Claims. 1t has been favorably reported
by the Senate Committee on Claims
and Senator Money thinks the outlook
very good for favorable action. Most
of the claims are held in the Southern
States

OUR PUBLIC prILpINc

The Baltimore American of yesterday
has the following to say in reference
to the public building that this city is
trying to get:
Portsmouth city some fifty years ago
contained some 10000 inhabtants-No
folk less; Newpor, News had not been
conceived until thirty years after.
Twenty-Five years ago Portsmouth
could claim nearly $4,000. and ut the
present writing she has nearly 10000,
which, If the adjoining suburbs were
taken In. could be easily stretched to
10000 (the actual derritory for free
United States mail delivery contains
at least 100000. Now could any one
imagine such IL thing as a city of 10000
native civilized Americans, having n
small two-room building. % by so feet
floor area, hired for a, postonice? Such
is but too true, and now only as late as
1900 they have awakened and are fee
bly, asking Congress for a picayune,
paltry hundred thousand for a building
to be owned by the general govern
ment and used as postoffice.
We pity Portsmouth, and hope to find
her better off on our next visit.

presiding 1t was reported to the Board
that the cost of the new building and
other Improvements of the institution
was SOL 900. For this the Legislature
had appropriated $88. 900. and SII 600
additional was paid out of the earnings
of the institution. The Legislature will
he asked to make up the other $4,000.
The reason the appropriation was ex-
ceeded is that there were greater i'm
provements made than was first contem-
plated. The institution now in its sani-
tary and other conditions is in splendid
order. The members OF the Board pre-
sent all joined in making very compli-
mentary illusions to Governor Lowndes'
administration OF affairs. Preparations
were made to make the annual report of
