"There are about 5,000 Indian depredation
claims now filed with the court of claims , "
said Hon. L.V. . Colby to a BIE reporter
yesterday. "Tho docket is very much
crowded , and many ot these casoa cannot bo
reached before the first week In January.
These claims that were passed upon prior to
the Dassago of the act creating the court of
claims will probably ho disposed of before
that tirao. There were between 500 and 1OOJ
claims of that kind which bad been exam
ined and allowed before the act was passed.
These will bo disposed of very shortly after
the court commences In October. All these
claims that arc believed to bo logltinmto and
honest will bo Uurrlod forward as rapidly as
possible.
"I do not understand that it Is my business
to hinder or retard the progress of these
cases , but on the contrary whore I am con
vinced that the claims are just , I expedite
matters as much as possible. The passage
of this law was a great step in the direction
of substantial benefit to the claimantnnd ,
the thousands of deserving people who
have boon waiting for years for
moneys that the government owes them.
It nullities all previous extortionate contracts
with claim agents and attorneys and will en
able the claimants to obtain nearly the full
value of their claims Instead of being obliged
to divide with agents nnd attorneys whoso
fees usually ubsorbod a very largo share of
the funds received from the government for
honest claimants.
"Tho practical workings of the law will , I
think , boot croat benefit to the states of
Iowa , Nebraska , Kansas , the Dakotas and
Colorado , where the people have suffered for
years Irom the depredations of lawless In
dians aud have been writing for the govern
ment to malto good the lossns. la some In
stances the Indians themselves are willing
to admit that they stele or Destroyed the
property. The Brulo Indians who stele n lot
of mules and horses near North IMatto years
ago confessed the theft and ovcu ahowed the
animals to the government agents , but they
refused to return them. They asked the
agent to deduct the prlco of the mules from
the animal allowance granted tholr band by
tbo government. In short the Indians appro
priated the prqporty and asked Undo Sara
to charge It up to their account. "

County CommiHbioiicrs Make nit Offer
on Klcrtlou Itootlis.
The regular meeting of the Board of
County commissioners was hold yesterday
with Messrs. O'Keoffe , s'an Camp , Timnio
and tlio members of the Joint committee from
the council nnd Board of Education present.
Tlio list of bids on election booths as pub
lished a week ago was read , together with
the resolution of the council instructing the
representatives of the council on the joint
committee on election booths that the coun
cil would pay ono-qtiartor of the cost of the
booths provided the school board paid a like
amount nnd the county one-half of the cost.
Mr. O'Kocn'o reported that ho had pro
posed that the county pay ? ,000 , the school
board $ -1,000 and the city the balance. This
would leave thu city fti.'JOS to pay providing
thu booths were purchased.
Mr. Osihoff , of the committee from the
council , said the council had given the com
mittee from the council no discretion m the
matter. The council thought the county
should pay one-half of the expense of the
booths including the cost of furnishing them
complete , and the committee had no power to
change the terms.
After discussing the matter for some time
iron booths were decided on and the follow
ing resolution was introduced by Mr. Timnio
and adopted :
KoMilvcd , Tlmt Iho county will pay $ fl.4i ! :
for ihu riMjnlral numhi-rof booths In thu city ,
and when this amount Is paid the county hus
done all that will be ic-quitod ( if It. the city to
taku c.ire of Iho boothsaml furnish them with
thu necessary furniture and Htutionrry.
The county attorney was instructed to
meet with the attorneys of the city and the
Board of Education and draw up a contract
covering this matter.
The amount of $18,20 , of which the county
agreed to pay one-half , cover ? only the pur
chase price of the booths , not including the
necessary chairs and tables which will cost
nt least $1,000 additional , and which the
city will have to pay.
The board then proceeded to the regular
order of business.
The usual number of communications and
bills were road and referred to the various
committees.
A resolution from Van Camp provided that
all claims for coroners' witness and jury fees
up to Augustjll. which nro lound correct by
the county auditor , bo allowed. The resolu
tion was adopted.
The regular appropriation sheets were
allowed.
