WAR CLAIMS WILL BE PAID

State Auditor Iverson says that Mime
sofa will get back all that was expended
to place the state troops in the field at the
outbreak of the Spanish war. The an
nouncement that $8S,59 Of the claims were
disallowed is misleading They are really
suspended. Some of the claims will be
disallowed, but all that are legitimate will
be granted as soon as they are presented
in the proper form. The state spent
s143, 164.34 to equip the troops, 100000 to
pay the men for the time spent at Camp
Ramsey. and $23, 7s020 for bringing the
sick soldiers back from camps at Chicka
manga and elsewhere These claims, with
the exception Of the last one, have already
been provided for by act Of congress. So
far $84, 100 has been allowed.

II The first conviction under the peonage
laws was that Of S. M. Clyatt of Triton,
Ca, who, on May a., 1902, in the United
States Circuit court at Tallahassee. Fla,
was. convicted Of a violation Of Section
1926 of the Revised Statutes. The defend
ant in this case came from Georgia into
Florida, accompanied by armed men, and
with the assistance Of the sheriff OF Levy
county, Florida arrested two negroes who
had run away from his turpentine farm IN
Georgia while indebted to him. The men
were forcibly arrested taken out OF the
state without legal process and forced to
work on defendants turpentine farm. At
the time of the capture the defendant an
nounced that his purpose was to take the
negroes back TO Georgia in order that he
might make an example of them, SO that
employees might not run away. At the
trial of this case it was developed by the
evidence that the actions of the defendant
were in line with the usual custom OF the
country regarding employees indebted to
EMPLOYERS. The defendant introduced no
evidence, in the defense, and the jury
found him guilty. The court imposed a
penalty Of four years Imprisonment in the
federal prison, and the defendant took a
writ of error in the circuit court of ap-
,peals for the fifth circuit. The case is
still pending at this writing, and the de-
cison Of the court is awaited with inter-
