Been Filed, But others Are Yet
to Come-Must BE Filed BEFORE
January 1906 to Be Considered.
Auditors Decision as to the states
Right TO Reimbursement for Ex-
pendftures on Account of Furnish
ing Troops.
By r. NJ Larner.
Washington, Aug. 13.-There is some
thing like $l50000 to 100000 claimed
TO be due the state of Georgia, from
the United States government, grow
ing out of disbursements by the state
government in furnishing troops for
the Spanish War. These claims are
now pending before the Auditor of the
War Department, and as soon as they
are adjusted they will be paid. The
money is now available.
Judge c. J. Jones, of Cedartown,
was designated, sometime ago, by Gov.
Terrell, to represent the interests of
the state before the Treasury officials
and he has recently been in communi-
cation with Auditor Rittman, auditor
of War Department accounts.
Many Claims Not Yet Filed.
Some of the Georgia claims have
been filed, but others are yet to come.
The first act of Congress providing for
the reimbursement of states furnishing
troops for the war with Spain, required
that all claims should be filed not later
than April 1, 1904. There was consid-
cradle misunders landing and confusion
as to what should be included in these
claims, and the consequence was that
many of the states were not prepared
to submit their claims within the time
limit fixed by the act.
At the last session of Congress the
question came UP for consideration,
and it was provided that all claims
growing out of the Spanish war, in
connection with the furnishing of
troops and supplies by the various
states, must be filed not later than
January, 1906. In the new act of eX-
tension of time, it set forth that these
claims must be based upon actual dis
bursements made by the various states,
for supplies, transportation, and other
necessaries in connection with the
equipment and maintenance of troops
intended for active service in the Span
iSh war.
The State to Be Reimbursed.
In the consideration of the Georgia
claims the question arose whether the
state is entitled to reimbursement for
expenditures to prepare the troops
and have them in readiness for enroll
ment in the service of the United
States. Under the existing law the
auditor holds that the state is entitled
to be reimbursed for the money it ex-
pended in enlisting, equiping and sup
plying state troops up to the date of
their enlistment in the government
service. In other words it is provided
that each claim shall be filed separate
ly. giving a description of the condi-
tions and circumstances under which
the disbursement was made, and if it
is clearly demonstrated that the ex-
penditure was made in good faith, to
assist in furnishing troops to the ma
tional government, the claim will be
paid.
1t is understood that many of these
claims have their origin in Savannah.
