After a stiff battle with the snow drifts between post and city this morning, a mule-towed pay car finally reached the coffers of one of the local banks, stowed away the pay chest and then headed back for ‘ort Lincoln.

At the close of business yester- day a total of 26,940 claims had filed and “proved up” accord- ing to law, and of these 26,800 had been called for payment. ee these are the only claims which will be paid immedi- ately, the work of the bonus de- partment will not be completed when they are out of the way, it was made clear.

In all such cases, war- rants for their bonus have been mailed to their last address and have been returned and inquiry has failed to disclose the veteran's whereabouts. . At the last session of the legis- lature a bill was passed fixing July 1 as the last day on which applica- tion for the state bonus might be hade. No time limit has been set for perfecting claims already filed, however, and it is considered pos- sible that a lurge percentage of the 1,200 unperfected claims may “proved up” and made eligible to payment at some time in the fu- ture. Asa result, the adjutant general's office said today t'at it is unable to estimate now what the total pay- ments under tho state bonus act finally will be.
