Nevada Sues for Large Sum

A suit against the United States was
to-day filed in the United States Court OF
Claims by the State of Nevada, claiming
a refund of sac, 4l4.S1 advanced in aid or
the Federal government at the time of the
Civil war. Congress, in 1861, authorized
the states to recruit troops and make all
necessary expenditures, their accounts
for which were to be allowed by the
treasury department. Nevada, on attain
ing statehood in 1864, incurred extraordi-
nary expenses in recruiting it's quota or
troops, not only paying bounty for enlist
ments, but being compelled, because or
the high wages paid for labor in the min
ing states at that time, to pay the volun-
teers an amount in addition to the regu-
lar army pay. The allowance of these
expenditures nave been for many years
a disputed matter in the treasury depart
ment.
The present action is broghtu under acts
of congress passed in 1902 directing the
reimbursement of these accounts and ref
erence of the claims to the Court OF
Claims by the secretary of the treasury.

he refuses to %relinquish his command OF

HAY on WAR CoMTRA5AND.
Secretary of State Defines Americot
Position in the Matter.

THE recognition in principle of the
treatment of coal and other ftpi and
raw cotton as absolutely contraband OF
war might ultimately lead to a total in
Inhibition Of the sale by neutrah to the
people Of belligerent States, of all arti-
cles which could be finally converted 10
military uses. Such an extension Of the
principle by treating coal and other fuel
and raw cotton as absolutely contraband
of war, simply because they are shipped
by a neutral to a non-blockaded port of
a belligerent, would not appear to be in
accord with the reasonable and kwful
rights OF a neutral commerce.
This is a summary of a declaration by
Secretary Hay oil the right of neutral ma
tons during war, 1t was embodied In a
circular TO American ambassadors in En-
rope which was issued from the State
Department June 10 last, but for some
reason was withheld from the public,
although certain shippers who inquired
at the department for the right were sup
piled with copies. The circular is based
on a declaration by the Russian govern
ment that coal, naphtha, alcohol and
other fuel have been declared cuntraband.
British sentiment is declared 10 be in
complete accord with this declaration.

hey's crime;
The crime In question is one to the
existence OF which we largely owe the
existence Of that spirit Of lawlesspess
which takes form In lynching. 1t Is es
seutial that the punishment for it should
be not only as certain but as swift as
possible It is to be regretted that we
do not have special provision for more
summary dealing with this type OF cases.
The more we do what in US lies to Sc
cure certain and swift justice in dealing
with these cases the more effectively do
we work against the growth OF that lynch
ing spirit which Is so full of evil omen
for this people, because it seeks TO avenge
infamous crime by the commission
OF another OK equal infainy."
