L. A. Hall, to jibe with somo of the members, A couple of prominent members were excluded at the covenant meeting night vofore last, and according to the newspaper report the expulsion was caused by the vic tims having told some of the church sccrets, A prominent member was asked last evening what ground thare was for thig report. In reply e said he reason for the expulsion was simply that the parties refused to stay in the church. About a weel ago they got up in meeting and denounced the pastor and most of the members, stating that they never could have any feelings of feilowship for them any more Thoy then asked for letters of dismission. Of course, after such statements as they had made abott the other members we could do notning but exclude them.” Lev.

Who Compose Its Counsel and How 1t 1s Managed. About sixty days ago a new departure was inaugurated by the San Francisco Examiner, now the leading paper on the coast. Its pro- vrictor, Mr. Hearst, son of the late Senator Hearst of California, who hus a very large fortune at his command, conceived the idea of establishing a burcau of cluims at Wash- ington, manned by the ablest lawyers and specialists conversant with the routine work in the various departments and bureaus of the government, When the announcemnt of this new depart- ure was made negotiations were at once en- tered into between Tue B and the proprie- tor of the Examiner to join hands and mu ually share in the cnterprise. These ar- rangements havo beer perfected and agree- ments entered into by which e Bee is to prosecute ull ciaims urrising in the territory where Tug Bee enjoys 5o extensive a sub- seription patrond Under this agreement applications for claims, either for p Tndian depreda- tions, land or miniug cluims, patent or pos- tal claims in the states of lowa, Kausas, South Dakota aud Nebrasks, will be taken in hand by Tur Bee Buwiav or Craivs in Omaba and through 1t fowarded to head quarters at Washington where thoy will be prosecuted to a final acd speedy conclusion, Tik Bek takes pleasure in offering to all its patrous and particularly to subscribers to Tuk WeEKLY Bre, the services of its new bureau which, we bave no doubt, will prov o of grost advantage ta them, both in prosecu- ting new claims to a successful issue aud in expoditing ull claims eutrusted to Tug Bk burcau Tuk Bee Bueav oF Craivs has frequently been referred o 10 these columns, but up to the present time, no reference Lus been mude to the manner i whicn its impo work is performed. ‘This is oue of the most interest lug feuturs connocted with the enterprise, The Bureau's Counsel, To begin with, the services of three most emiuent councllors bave beea retaiucd, all isions, These are A Hughos P.

Théy are qualified to | pass upon the genoral merfls of any claim, as soon ns it is presented. This saves o great 4|l‘lll of time, because, when a claim has heen ssed upon by them, 1t is generaily one Which fa ontitied to & standing 1n vourt. When a claim is rejected by them, it means that it is either outlawed o that it lacks cer- tain elements which would lead to its final approval Examiners and Experts, Besides these gentlemen thero are also practising attornoy, an examiner and expert in each depurtment in which Tue Bre pro- poses to prosecute claims, namely, those of patents, pensions, postal und land claims and Indian deprodations, in fact in any depart- ment in whnich a claim may arise against the federal government. These attorneys pro- pare the petitions and tend to the claims be- fore the several courts, whilo the examiners and experts make aspecialty of searching the records and arranging tho evidence necns- sary to strengthen the claim The gentleman charged with this duty re Farding Indian deprodations has beon tho ns- istant chief examiner of these claims in tho ndian bureau of the interior department for many years. His comprehensive knowledge of details, facts, status of and evidence in the cases heretofore filed or the ontbreaks out of which others yot to be filed have arisen, rendors bis services extremely valu- able. | Ilien there is a gencral manager, John Wedderburn, For years he was private sec- rotary to Senator Hearst, the fathor of Ho: William tlearst, the projector of the present enterprise. He has ulso been for years the Washington correspondent of the San Ir cisco Examiner, with which Tre BEE 1s no ¢ co-operating. Heis a man of universal in- formation and is_especially aduptod to the responsible position he now holds. “Than this force none more eapable could e found in the country. Its services have retained at great expense by the au, the solaries alone reaching at the present time 1,300 per month As has been stated, the San Francisco Bx- aminer inaugurated the enterprise, and through it Tie Brk was allowed to establish 1ts bureau for the accommodation of eluim- antsin South Dakota, Towa, Nebraska und Kansas, This privilege was fivst, of all the papers in the country, extended to becnuse of its known ' pluck, enterprise and energy. Tho undertaking O, E.

Among those pupers there is a leading one in Minne. sota and othors in Boston, Ciucinnati, S| Louis, Atlanta and New Orleans, It thought that Mr. Hearst, the proprictor of The Examiner, and the gentleman who in- aucurated the system, will grant the applic tion. Claims Coming Tn. Tur Bek Cuaist BUkeAu has not been in existence one month and yot it has listed Indian depridation claims aggregating 22,000 and the amouit is being con- stantly added to. This is a remark- able showing, and yet it is but a fraction of the_claims which remain unrecorded «nd un- paid in the statos controlled T Be Bukeav or Cras, namely, South Dakot Nebrasku, lowa and Kansas, On March 3, of this year, an act for the payment of Indian depredation claims was approved, To this act, it is nec sary to direct the sttention of cver claimant who bas suffered ut the hands of Indiaus. This refers to those vietims whose claims have alveady been filed as weil as _to those who still contemplate filing them. Up to the date in question, thousands of sufferers had filed their claims with attorneys in all parts of the country ana were in most casos charged oxcessive fees, Many of the claims, too, had been pending for ars. Satisfied that, in many cases, the claimants had contracted with the attorneys in que tion and, wittout fear of prosccution for annulment, could not trausfer their claims to other agents or attorneys who might expe- dite the collection, ‘congress unacrtook to afford the aesired relief. This it did in the actin question. Annulling Exorbitant Contracts. Jurisdiction in vhese matters was trans ferred to the court of claims where the ser vices of au attorney areindispensable. Under this law, all agrecients made by claimants with attorne prior to March 1801, are expressly declared null and void. ' This' was doue as has been intimated to release claim ants from exorbitant fee contracts. Every claimant is, tnerefore, froe to em- ploy as his attorney whomsoever he p'eases. Under these circumstances, it would — appear 10 be to the advantago of every person hav- ing a claim to place the same " with the bu- reau guaranteed by such a reliable and re sponsible paper as Tue Bee, rather than with unknown parties, The disappointed attorneys whom the law in question has deprived of exorbitant fees have been flooding the country threatening their former clients with suit should they take their claims from them and place them in the bands of other attorneys. But this shiould not discourage claimants, because an act of congress is puramount to zny and all agreements entered into with any attorney prior to the time named in the said law. To Recover fo- Indian Depredations Parties desiring to avail themselves of the benefits of the act in auestion re- garding the overy ot claims growing out of Indian depredations should forward to Tuz Ber Buriau or Cratvs power of attorney, gravting author ity to appear in their case in the court of claims, They should also furnish a detailed statement of loss, including each specific article lost, its value, date, county and stite, band or tribe of [udians committing depredations, names and present addresses of witn whose testimony they expect to use in_substan tion of their claim, aud such other informa tion bearing upon the case us they may Possess, Upon receipt of this simple information, Tue Bek Brieav or Craivs will immediately attend to the mora intricate oe difficult por- ion of the preparation. ‘The claims must not ba based on depreda- tions extending back beyond 1865, Readers of Tie BEE or those who may wims for collection, are respectfully re- quested to furnish Tue Bee BUrkAU oF Craivs with the names and addrosses of any other parties who have suffered similur losses at the hanas of Indians, Many people are as yet unaware of the recent favorable legislation by which these claims can now, if properly prepared and presented be collected. But Indian depredation claims are not the only ones which Tuz Bee Bureau or CrLAims proposes to handle. In brief, it will look after any claim which any citizen has aguinst the government or any department of the government. It will bo specially service- able to soldiers of the late war.
