Indiana Denied Reimbursement for Troop Raising Costs
Indiana's claim of 606,979 against the federal government for funds raised to recruit troops was rejected by acting Controller Mitchell. The ruling cites lack of state funds and prior precedence, despite a 1991 New York ruling favorable to Indiana. Congress may consider a monumental Temple of Justice in Washington to house the Supreme Court and related offices.

Figures show the county running cost at 603,332 for the coming year while last year's ending May 31 1899 total was 18,917 08.
