    JOHN W. PAYNE v. THE UNITED STATES.
    (No opinion in Court of Claims; 147 U. S. R., 687.)
    
      On the defendants’ Appeal.
    
    The case presents a number of items in a clerk’s account for his fees of office.
    The court below renders judgement in favor of the claimant without an opinion, this being one of many cases where the construction of the statutes by the Supreme Court is desired.
    The judgement is reversed in part, and tbe Supreme Court examines and determines every item.
   Mr. Justice Brown

delivered tbe opinion of tbe Supreme Court, March 6, 1893.
