NUMEROUS HORSE CLAIMS--It is surprising
TO military Observers that the Confederate horse

tained the proportions they have More than two
thousand such bills have already been filed against
the government When the subject was first In
troduced a few years ago II was expected that
the needed amount would not be than Noo,-
co., which would satisfy 100 OF the claims IL there
were that many in existence. The claims are from
Confederate officers and soldiers who were re-
turning home after Lees surrender They were
molested by federal troops who did not know OF
their immunity. specially granted. and 60 suffered
the loss Of the animals. rough estimate made
some time ago did not show that more than 500
officers and who had served in the Confederate
army could by possibility have suffered such
loss at the end Of the war. but the claims have
kept coming in with the required afidavits. and
there has been nothing to do but pay them. The
time limit Of fling the claims has expired but there
those IN the War Department who believe that
the period will be extended and that the claims
will continue to be presented.
