Gets 8161.040 Out of Connecticut's
Civil Cases. . _
Governor Chamberlain has received
from the United states sub-treasury
in New York a check of the govern-
ment for “06,660.59. in payment of the
claims of the state of Connecticut for
money and interest on money advanced
by the state in the equipment. main-
tenance and outfitting of troops dlil‘v
in the civil war. The clerk was re-
ce ved by the governor on Thursday of
last week. It was payable to his or-
der. Under the contract entered into
by the state with lion Samuel Fes-
sende‘n of Stamford state attorney for
Fairileld county 25' per cent. of the
amount of the check is payable to Mr
Fesserldcn. and Governor Chamberlain
endorsed the check over to him and
forwarded the check to him. 0f the to-
tal amount of the check the state will
received $154,920.44, and Mr. Fessen-
den's share will be $151,640.16.
The check which has been received
by the governor and by him turned
over to Mr, Fessenden is the result of
litigation before the United States
court of claims, which has extended
over a term of several years. in May.
1897, the general assembly passed the
following special act in reference to
the matter:
Resolved by this assembly, That the
governor is hereby authorized and cm
powered to appoint and employ agents
or attorneys on behalf of the state, at
such compensation as he may deter-
mine. payable without further appro-
priation, but only out of any sums that
may be collected thereunder. and with-
out any liability on behalf of the state
for any expenses, to present, prosecute
and recover before the congress, any
department, the court of claims. or the
supreme court of the United States. the
costs. charges and expenses prop'erly
incurred by this state for enrolling
subsisting, clothing equipping, supply
ug, arming. paying'. and transporting
its troops employed in aiding to sub-
prcss the insurrection against the Uni
ted States between the years 1861 and
1865, both inclusive under an. act on
titled “An act to ilrdcmnlfy the states
for expenses incurred by them in dc-
fenso of the United States, approved
,July 27.1861.
Acting under the above resolution.
Governor Lorin A. Cooke appointed
Samuel Fesscnden the agent of the
state of Connecticut to prosecute the
claims of the state for recompense for
expenses incurred for the government
in the civil war. A contract was made
under which Mr. Feasendcu was to un-
dertake all duties and bear all expens-
es in the prosecution of his claims and
was to receive for his services 25 per
rent of any award made lo the state.
Mr Fessendeu performed the duties
under the conlruct and as a result of
the award of the court of claims his
share of lire amount is “51540.15. The
amount of the award is considerably
larger than was at iilst expected it
was thought that the state would ro-
céive about 8,180. 000 but relying on a
decision on the claim of the stale of
lndlana, in which Interest. was added
In the original outlay by that state,
the Connecticut agent and his lawyers
made a similar claim for Connecticut
and the original sum expended. with
interest. was awarded. in his appear.
ances before the court of claims at
Washington and in other matters cou-
netted wilh the award. Mr. Fessenden
was assisted by the law firm of (‘ot-
ton & White of Washington D C. The.
charges of these lawyers all court
fees. and expenses of every charac-
ter. will be paid by Mr. Fesscnden out
of his 25 per cent. of the teal award
As It was provided in the contract with
the state that M l Fessenden should re-
ceive the award from the government
and after deducting his share. should
turn over the balance to the state.
Governor Chamberlain endorsed the
check from the government and for
warded it to Mr. Fesaenden,

says:
Therewill be a battalion drill at the.

this section of the state. There are
rumors of resignations, soon lo be filed
at Hartford.
if reports are true there Is a strong
probability that the Fourth regiment
will not be as largely represented at
Niantlc this comln year as was the
Third Regimentl year. At the pres-
ent time the rumors are indefinite.
