SUES ON SEED ACCOUNT.
NeIIis Is Trying to Get $4,000 frOns

Washington, June 23.-Preliminary

brought against the government by the
legal Representatives of Arthur c. Mel
lis, of New York, for the payment of
SIS, 900, claimed to be due him for fur
nishing seeds to the Department of
Agriculture during a recent fiscal year.
Nellis, was the contractor for furnish
ing the seeds, for which Congress APP
propriated $10S,S74, but the sum of $751;
900 was withheld by the department,
because of the alleged failure of the
contractor to carry out the terms of his
contract to the satisfaction of the Of
ficials. The officials were not satisfied
that all seeds contracted for are re-
ceived by the department, and after an
inquiry conducted by Beverly I. Gal
loway, the department decided to with
hold the final payment
Nellis attempted to have the paper
bags in which the seeds were enclosed
made in Washington by machine in
which an official of the Agricultural
Department is said to have invested
some money, but the scheme proved a
failure and he was compelled 10 go 10
