SETTLING INDIAN CLAIMS
United States Agents Reach Santa
Barbara on Tour Of the West
ern States
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, Oct. John
Stansbury and Fred c. Clark, attorneys
from Washington, D. c., were at the
Mascarel hotel yesterday. Mr. Stans-
bury is a special attorney of the gov
ernment Indian service, making a tour
of the western states for the purpose OF
investigating certain Indian depreda-
tions that have been committed during
the last sixty years. Mr. Clark is an
attorney representing the interests of
those who have made their claims, and
as his friend is working in the inter-
est of the government they constitute a
sort of transient court, which goes
from plact to place examining into In
dian claims and often trying the issues
on the ground. Witnesses are exam
ined according to court methods, with
court stenographer present, and with
the usual direct, cross-examination and
redirect examination. The attorneys
had hoped to find an important witness
in this city, and were intending to
turn the Mascarel hotel into a United
States court for his examination, but
after they had hunted the city over
they found that their man had fled
and they hastily went in search of him.
Messrs. Stansbury and Clark are
acting under a congressional act of
1891, which provides for the payment OF
claims made by settlers who had their
property destroyed and otter their
families killed by Indians, as far back
as 1860 The government considers the
Indians its wards, and therefore deems
itself responsible for any depreciation
committed by them while they are
under the restraint of the government. |
The amity clause of the act provides, |
however, that Indians in a hostile con-
dition are not its wards, and no claims
are paid for crimes committed by them
when they are on the war-path.
Messrs. Stansbury and Clark say
that there are at present about 5000
claims for indemnities for Indian de-
predations in the western states, and |
that they aggregate a sum of over
$50 900, 900.

RIVERSIDE, Oct. 1.-Riverside has
never had a building inspector, and
last night the trustees met to consider
a building ordinance which would pro-
vide for the establishing of this office

the ordinance had been read and that
forty-eight pages remained to be read.
This rather discouraged the trustees.

regard to the provisions of the new or
dinance: MANY of the provisions of the

tinency will be readily seen. and
builders will appreciate the necessity
for the safeguards provided for" 1t is
proposed to pay the salary of building
inspector from fees collected from par
