John Sharp Williams. Introduces
Bill to Recover for Captured
Property.
By WALTER EDWARD HARRIS.

BY WALTER EDWARD HARRIS.
WASHINGTON. d. c.. February c.
Representative Williams, OF Mississippi,
has introduced bill to give the Court
Of Claims Jurisdiction OF claims for cap
tured and abandoned property which was
sold and the proceeds placed In the,
United States Treasury.
The bill contains important features,
differing somewhat from former bills on
tho subject, which have been proposed
in the effort to dispose OF the fund under
the act OF 1853, which amounts to about
s9ooo,ooo. and which the Supreme Court
declared was a trust fund.-
The bill gives jurisdiction to tho Court
OF Claims. Notwithstanding any former
suit to recover the proceeds OF property
seized by tho government during the
civil war may have been dismissed for
want OF Jurisdiction, with the proviso
that no proof shall be required OF the
loyalty OF the claimant or Of tho original
owner OF the property seized or taken
by tho United States at the time Of the
seizure Any testimony, anldavits. re-
departments or the courts, shall he con-
sidered competent evidence. All judg-
ments are to be paid out Of tho cap
tured and abandoned property fund
The section most differing from former
similar measure. and is intended to
eliminate spectators who bought from
Southern people reduced to perjury by
tho war the claims they We're compelled
to sacrifice, Is as follows:

which it is stated cmphatically that the
committee is Of the opinion that Con-

and has no authority to suppress any
tions surrounding the employment Of such

regulation of woman and child labor is
within the police power Of the various
States.
This report was made in compliance
with the resolution from the House Com
,nittee on Appropriations asking for an

Attorney-General's Conclusion.
Attorney General Anderson concluded
the argument In a brief speech, in
which he spoke with his usual force
and earnestness and reinforced the con
tentions Of Mr.. II. W. Anderson, who.
lie said had llghtened the work for the
! state by the able and luminous argu-
ment. Major Anderson vigorously at
tackled the contention that the General
Board had no jurisdiction to bring this
proceeding. Tho Constitution, he ar
gued specifically clothed this General
Board with exclusive jurisnicton and
with Dlcnary powers. Arguing from the
standpoint OF eXpediency, tho speaker
declared that II there ever was case
in which the State should intervene n t
was this.
After covering the other questions pre-
sented Major Anderson said In consul
sion We insist that the city OF VIII
.liamsburg was without jurisdiction to Is
sue this writ of cert!orari. In this case
there was no record. no proceedings in
the city OF Williamsburg or within It's
jurisdiction. The General Board has no
domicile, this being wherever 1t may
choose to sit. There Is no analogy be-
tween this General Hospital Board and a

Board being an independent tribunal CO.
