Claims prepared by the sec

year for indemnity expenses in
curred by the state during the
Indian war of 1877-7S, are now
being considered by the war de
partment and the state will prob
ably receive about $40,000 from the
general government upon the final
settlement. John Mullan, agent
for the state of Oregon at Wash

McBride that it is doubtful if this
claim will be audited in time for
the appropriation during the
present session of congress, so it
will not be available before June,
