LANCASTER TO RECEIVE CASH '
General Claims Bill Amended to In

HAUTE CLAIM WITHOUT STAND
(From a Staff Correspondent)
I.INCOI4.V. April . fpedal.)-The ren-ei-sl
claims Will, H. R. T3S, recommitted to
the committee of the whole In the sen
ate for specific amendments, received
three new additions this morning and
roe. back aaain to the bills ready for
third readins.
The additions Include an appropriation
of tU,l!4.10 to sstlufy a Judgment for that
amount procured aratnst the stato by
Lenraster county In May, last. The Judg
ment Is to reimburse the crfVinty tor state
moneys on deposit In the Cspltal Nstlnnal
bank when It failed in the '90s. On the
theory thst ths county was" Insurer ot
state funds thst It collected ss agent,
the county treasurer at that time paid
the money over to the state, but the
courts held, the county having secured
permission to sue the state, thst the
county was not an insurer of state funds
snd ws -entitled to receiver, '
This was not the specific Item of re
commlttmeht and was considered at tl
request of Kohl or Wayne upon the unan
imous consent of the senate. He ex
plained that the Judgment was drawing
10 per cent snd that It was economy for
the stateto pay It now. The house had
refused to Include the appropriation In
the claims bill.
An appropriation of 11,000 for Joe Rife
was added. Mr. Rife, a state house em
ploye, had his wrist injured when a heavy
radiator fell upon it Another claim
added was that of the Western Plumbing
and Heating company . for repairs mad
on the building at the Omaha Medical
college following the cyclone. The claim
was for t300. A somewhat similar claim
by John H. Harte, the general con
tractor on the building was rejected. It
was explained that while his work had
not at the time of the storm been a.
eepted by the Board of Regents that the
work of the former bad been.
An attempt was made for the recon-'wlll
siJeration of the Harte claim, but it was
objeoted that this could hot be done with
out unanimous consent, since the bill was
recommitted only for specific amendment
and the Harte claim was not specified.
