Who Oompose Its Ogmnsel and How It Is Managed. ABLE JUR'STS, EXAMINERS AND EXPERTS, Beneficial cent Oy anta of Re How SfTects on Clai ngressional Letion Prosccute Clair of Al Kinds. to About sixty days ago a new departure was fnauguiated by the San Franeisco Examiner, now the leading paper on the coast. Its pro- vrietor, Mr. Hearst, son of the late Senutor Hearst of California, who has a very largo fortune at his command, conceived the idea of establishing a bureau of cluims at Wash- ington, munned by the ablest lawyers and specialists conversant with the routine work in the various depurtments and burcaus of the government. When the announcemnt of this new depart- nre was made negotiations were at_once en- tered into between Tue Bre and the proprie- tor of the Examiner to join hauds and mu ually share in the enterprise. These ar- rangements have been perrected and agree- ments entered into by which Tie Bee is to prosecuto all cisims urrising in the tervitory where Tir Bee enjoys so extensive a sub- seription patronage, Under this agreoment all claim! applications for ner for pensions, Indiun depreda- tions, land or mining claims, patent or pos- tal claims in the states of Iowa, Kansas, South Dukota and Nebrasks, will be taken in hand by Tue Bee Bureav or Crans in Omaha and through 1t fowarded to head- quarters at Washington where they will bo prosecuted to a fiual and speedy conclusion. Tug Ber takes pleasure in offering to all its patrons and particularly to subscribers to Tie WEEKLY DBre, the services of its new bureau which, we have no doubt, will prove of great advantage to them, both in prosecu- ting new claims to a successful issue and expediting all claims entrusted to Tue Bek burcau, T Beg Buaeav of Crants has frequently bacn referred to 1n these columns, but up to the present time, no reference Las been made to the manner m which its important work is performed. Tnis is one of the most interest ing features connected with the enterprise. The Rureau's Counsel. To bogin with, the services of threo most emiuent councilors have been retained. These are A. L. Hughes, O. k. Weller, and P.J. Butler, They are acnominated “gen- eral counsel.” Thoy are men of mature years und learned in tne law. They bave inude a specialty of practising in - the the United States supreme, circuit and dis- trict conrts, the United States court of claims and before all the departments and hureaus of the goverument. They ure qualtied to s upon the general merits of any claim, as soon as it is presenied. This saves a great deal of time, becanss, when a claim has been passed upon by them, iv is_gencraily one which is entitled to a standing 1 court. When # clain t it means that it i either outlawed or that it lacks cer- in clemonts which would lead to its final poroval. Lxaminers and Experts. Besides these gentiemen there are also a practising attorney, an examiner and expert in each department in which Tie Bre pro- poses to prosceute elaims, namely, those of patents, pensions, postat wnd land claims and Tudian depredations, i fact in any depart- ment in which a clalim_may arise against the federal government. These attorneys pre- pare the petitions and tend to the claiws be- fore the several courts, while tho oxaminers aud experts make aspecialty of searching the records and arranging the evidence neces- sary to strongthen the claim, The gentleman charged with this duty ro- garding [ndian depredations has been the as- sistant chief examiuer of these :laims in tho Indiun bureau of the interior department for many years. His comprehensive rnowledge of details, facts, status of and evidence in the cases heretofore filed or the outbreaks out of which others yet to be filed have arisen, reudors his services extremely valu- able. 2 ‘Then there is a gencral manager, John Wedderburn. e vears e wis private sec retary to Senator Hearst, the father of Hon. Willium Hearst, the projector of the present enterprise. He has ulso been for years the Washington correspondent of the San Fran- cisco Ixaminer, with which Tie Bk 1s no v co-operating. Heis u man of universal in- formation and i3 especially adapted to the respousible position he now holds. Than this force none more capable could bo found in the country. Its services have been retained av great . expense by the burcau, the salaries alone reaching at the present time 31,800 per month. As has been stated, the San Fraucisco £x- aminer inaugurated the enterprise, through it Tie Ber was allowed to estubli its burenu for the accommodation of cluim ants in South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas, This privilege was first, of all_the papers in the country, extended to Tik Bee, because of its known ' pluck, enterprise and enery Tuo undertaking, tracted so much ention threughout tho country and been so wreatly appreciated by old soldiers, Indiu: victims, ana defraudod covernment cliimants, that leading papers clsewhere have asked to be admitted to enjoy the privileges of the burcau, Among these papers there is a leading one in Minne- sota and others in HBoston, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Atlanta and New Orlear It is thouzht that Mr, Hearst, the proprietor of The Examiner, and the gentleman who in- aucurated the systewm, will grant the applica- tion, however, has ut- Claims Coming In. Tue Bk Cuait Bureau: has existence one month and ye Iudgian depridation claims, £2,000 and the amouat is being con- stantly udded to. This is a remurk- uble showing, and yet it is but a_feaction of the claims winch remain unrecorded und ua- o in the siztes controlled by Tui Bee Buieau oF Cranvs, namely, South Dukota, Nebraska, lowa and Kansas. On March 3, of this year, an_act for the payment of Indinn depredation claims was approved. To this act, it is neces- sary to dircct the attention of evel claimant who hus suffered ut the hands of Indians. 'This refers to those victims whose claims huve already been filed a5 well as to those who still contemplute filing them. Up to the date in question. thousands of sufferers hud filed their claims with attoracys in all parts of the country ana were in most s charged oxcessive fees. Many. of the cluims, too, bad been pending for year Satisfied that, 10 many cases, the claimants bad contracted with the attorneys in ques- tion and, without fear of prosecution — for annulment, could not transfer their claims to other ngents or uttorneys who might expo- aue the collection, congress unacrtook to afford the desired relief. This it did in tho act in question. Annulling Exorbitant Contracts. Jurisdiction in vhese matters was trans ferved to the court of claims where the ser vices of an uttorney are indispensuble, Under this law, all agreements mado by claimants with attorneys, prier to Murch 3, 1801, aro expressly declared null and void, was doue us hus been intimated to release cluim ants from exorbitant fee contract |4 y claimant is, tnerefore, froe to em- ploy us his attorney whomsoever he pleases, Under these circumstances, it would ~appear 10 be to the advantage of every person hay- 10g @ elaim to pluce the same with the bu- reau guaranteed by such a_relinble and re spousible paper s Ber, rather than with unknown pasios “Tho disappointed attorneys whom thq law in question hus aeprived of exorbitant fees have been flooding the country threatening their former clients with suit should they take their claims from them und place thoem in the hauds of other uttorneys. —But this should not discouruge cluimants, because an act of congress is paramount to eny and all agreements entered into with any attorney prior to the time named i the said law.
