AWARD IN THE MAY CLAIM.
Guatemala to Pny the American
$4,000 in Gold.

The State Department was informed on
unofficial, but reliable authority yester-
day that Sir George F. B. Jenner. sole
arbitrator in the claim OF Robert H. May.
a citizen of the United States against the
Government of Guatemala, had rendered
an award in favor of May for $4,000 in
American gold.
The claim arose out OF the forcible seiz
ure of railroad which May was operat-
ing for the Guatemalan Government. May
had made contract to operate the road
for one year. for which he was to receive
$4,000 monthly and the earnings Of the
lire. The contract was made in April 1898.
and existed until October. 1898. when the
Guatemalan military authorities seized the
line. Since then the Government of Qua
temala has been operating the road and
collecting the revenues. May is from Ten
nessee. Sir George Jenner is the British
Minister to Guatemala

FOR PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
Representative Mercer Believes an
Omnibus Bill Will De necessary.

Eepresentative Mercer, Chairman of the
E9use Committee on Public Buildings and
Lr0uu Is. said yesterday that while moth
lug I'D been definitely agreed upon in

1uiln ngs. he believed that an omnibus
-li you'd be necessary instead of forty
VI atty separate bills, as we're passed
du ig the last session of the Fifty-fifth
.-a,;ress. He explained that because of
the rapid increase in the price of build
ing material and the wages of laborers
employed in the construction of public
buildings. many of the appropriations
have proven insufficient and that an ON
nibus bill was necessary in his Judgment
in order to provide increased appropria-
lions for such buildings.
