Thoio was nothing sensational about any of the testimony. Fields had been ordoted to bring with him u lot of proscriptions which had been made out by Grung for vaiious pi- tlents and taken to him to bo tilled. In accordance to bis Instructions the pro- scilptions wcro brought Into court nnd intro duced In evidence. On every proscription the name of "Dr. F. Grung" appeared.

" "Doyou liold join-self out to such people as a physician i" "O. no. " "What does this 'Dr. ' moan , then ! " "That moans I am a doctor of philosophy. " "O ! I see ; and have vott a diploma that shows you are entitled to use that degree ! " "Yes , sir : " was the reply , and tlio witness dove down Into nn Insldo pocket to find bis diploma.

About sixty days ago n now departure was Inaugurated by the San Francisco Examiner , now the leading paper on ttic coast. Its pro- orlotor , Mr. Hearst , son of the late Senator Hearst of California , who has a very la-go fortune nt his command , conceived the Idea of establishing a bureau of claims at Wash ington , manned by the ablest lawyers and specialists conversant with the routine \\orK in the various departments and bureaus of thu government. When the announeomntof this new depart- nrowas tnaJo negotiations were at once en tered Into between Tin : I t , and the proprie tor of the Examiner to Join liunits and nui- ually share In the enterprise. Thuso ar rangements hnvo been perfected and agree ments entered Into by which Tiir. HUB Is to prosecute all claims urrlslng In tl'o territory where Tin : Due enjoys so oxlenslvo a sub scription pitronao. Under this agreement all applications for claims , cither for pensions , Indian depreda tions , land or mining claims , patent or DOS- tat claims In the states of Iowa , Kansas , South Dakota and Nebraska , will bo taken In hand by Tin : BUB BUKRIU or CI.UMS in Omaha and through it fowarded to head quarters at Washington where they will bo prosecuted to a ilnal and spco''v conclusion. TUB BPE takes pleasure In ofTcrln'g to all Its patrons and particularly to subscribers to Tim Wiii\i.r : : BUB , the services of its now buieau which , wo.havu no doubt , will prove of grou advantage to them , both In prosecu ting new claims to a successful Issue and In expediting all claims entrusted to TUB Bui : bureau. TUB BBC BuumuofCi.viMshas frequently been referred to in these columns , but ui > to the present time , no reference has been made to the manner in which its Impoitant worlc Is pcrfoimeil. Tnis is ono of the most interest ing features connected with ttio nntorprisc. The I5iiro.m'n Counsel. To begin with , the services of tnroo most oinlnont councilors have been retained. Tbcso are A. L. Hughes , O. E. Wellcr , and P. J. Butler. They are denominated "gen- oral counsel. " They are men of mature years and learned In the law. They have inudu a specialty of practising in ttio thu United Status supreme , circuit and dis- tilct couits , the United States court of claims mid before all the departments and bureaus of the government. Tlfljy are qualified to pass upon the general mdrlts of any claim as soon as it is presented. This saves a great deal of lime , because , wiibn'ii claim has been passed upon by them , It 'is ' generally one which Is entitled to a standing in couit. When a claim is rojccted | by them , It means that It is either outlawed or that It lacks cer tain elements which would 'load to Its final iippiovul. KYIIIIIliters and .Kxpcrts. Besides these gentlemen'twere are also a practising attorney , an examiner and export in each dopaitmcnt In wtyioh Tin : BII : : pie poses to prosecute claims , 'namely , those of patents , pensions , postal'anll land claims and Indian depredation- ! fact In any depart ment In wnich a claim may arise against the federal government. Tbcso ' attorneys pre- pmo the petitions and tui'jd to the claims be- fete the several courts , vt\\\\a \ \ \ \ the examiners and experts inakouspecUlty of searching the records and au-angng ( ° _ tlio evidence neces sary to strengthen tbo claim. The gentleman charged with this duty re garding Indian depredations has boon the as sistant chief examiner 'of these claims in the Indian bureau of the interior department for tuativ years. HU comprehensive Icnowledge of details , facts , status of and evidence in the cases heretofore Hied or tbo outbreaks out of which others yet to bo filed have arisen , renders his services extremely valu able. able.Then there is a general manager , John Weddorburn. For jeara ho was private see- rotary to Senator Hearst , the father of Hon. William Hearst , the projector of the present enterprise. He has also been for years the Washington correspondent of the San Fran cisco Examiner , with which TUB Br.E is no v co-operating. Ho Is a man of universal In formal ion and is especially ndapUid to the responsible position ho now holds. Than this force none more capable could bo found in the country. Its services have been retained at great expense by the bureau , the salaries ulono reaching at the present tlmo $ lbU ( ) per month. As has boon stated , the San Francisco Ex- amlncr inaugurated the enterprise , and through It Tin : Bni : was allowed to establish its bureau for the accommodation of claim ants In South Dakota. Iowa. Nebraska and Kansas. This privilege was first , of all the papois In the country , extended to Tin : Bui. , because of Its known pluck , enterprise and energy. The undertaking , however , has at tracted so much attention thtoughout tlio cOuntrv and been so greatly appreciated by old soldiers , Indian victims , and defiaudod government claimants , that loading pipers elsewhere have asked to bo admitted to enjoy the privileges of the bureau. Among those papers thorn is a leading ono in Minnesota seta and others in Boston , Cincinnati , St. Louis , Atlanta and Now Orleans. It Is thought that Mr. Hearst , the proprietor of The Examiner , and the gentleman who In augurated the system , will grunt the applica tion. CliilniN Comiti ; * In. TUB Bur CI.UM Buuistu has not Dcen In existence ono month and yet It has listed Indian dcprldatlon claims aggregating $ d.UOO , and the amou.it Is being con stantly added to. This is a remark able showing , and yet It U but a fraction of the claims which remain unrecorded and un paid in the state ? controlled bv Tin : Br.u Bi-iiuvu or CLAIMS , namely , South Dakota , Nelmnica , Iowa and Kansas. On March il , of this year , an not for the payment of InJIun depredation claims was uppiovcd. To this nut , it is neces sary to direct the attention of every claimant who has sulTorod at the hands of Indians. This refers to those victims whojo claims buvo already beoii U\cd , \ as well as to those who still contemplate tiling them. Up to tbo data In quosllbn , thousands of sufforois had Hied tbolr\laims ! with attorneys In all parts of the country aim were In most c.uos charged oxcosslvoi fees. Many of the claims , too , had been ( pending for years.
