TO PAY OVER THE MONEY
DUE SIXTY YEARS AGO
Government Ready to Liquidate
Claim Made by Heirs of John
Howard Payne.

After sixty years have passed the
| government of the United States Is
| prepared to pay to the heirs of the
author of Home Sweet Home" John
| Howard Payne. money remaining due
him from the Treasury upon his
death at Tunis while stationed there
as United States consul. AS there may
be a multitude Of heirs the sum due.
| s205,92. may divide up small.
| The Treasury Department is now
| seeking for information as to the
whereabouts of any who may have
claim to a share in the payment and
! for evidence to establish their status
as legal heirs. The bill as originally
introduced proposed to pay the amount
to Mrs. sEloise +. Luquer. daughter
and sole heir" AS passed and approved
by the President April last. the act
| provided for payment TO his heirs
Mrs. Luquer Still Living.
Mrs Luquer is still living in New
York state. according to. information
| la id before Congress. But the author
of Home. Sweet Home" had eight
brothers and sisters Two sisters died
in infancy. one brother lived to eleven
years of age. the other brothers and
sisters dying respectively at twenty
three thirty-two. forty-nne. sixty and
sixty-seveu years of age.
When John Howard Payne died. April
9. 1852, his sister. Lucy Taylor Payne
Osborn was alive. the mother of two
children who died in infancy, and also
a brcAher. Thatcher Taylor Payne. who
was married. Nothing is known of the
surviving progeny of any of his
brothers and sisters.
Strangely enough, the song writer
did not Ike claim to all that was
due him up to the time of his last
accounting. In making up his accounts
after his death, it was found that there
was an extra $3.50 to be added to
what he had stated as the sum he
figured was to be paid him.
How Money Was Expended.
His account is curious in indication
of the method of spending the "appro
prations for Barbary intercourse" He
expended s367.50 for gratuities and
presents. consisting of sabers swords
and belts. richly mounted for persons
distinguished about the court. also for
engravings of the United States Sen
ate and cities of New York and
BROOKLYN. for the hey fS22S), and for
the customary presents to dragomanS,
musicians and servants on festival and
other coca sions, and expenses of franz
ing pictures at Paris. intended for the
hey. including their transportation to
Marseille.
The reason for the balance rena ming
unpaid is given III the fact that no
executor or administrator of the estate
or any personal representative has
ever presented authority to receive the

Very Little Berlin Comment.

Other Berlin papers have published
only a few lines of non -committal
comment Of the prominent out Of
town papers only The Cologne Gazette
refers editorially TO the situation. 1t
says:
An understanding between Ger
many and America concerning the use
OF submarines hitherto has not been
reached"
The Gazette repeats the frequently
heard attacks on American neutrality
in connection with the delivery Of
munitions and the alleged complai-
sance of the United States toward
British arbitrariness. and concludes:
American neutrality. carried out in
this manner, is not of such kind that
Germany can sacrifice the most eff
fective means of its naval warfare
to it."
Following the lead of few morning
papers in preparing the public as gen
tly as possible for the American note.

ing the delay in publication due to
the length of the note and the difficulty
of translation, declares:
