      Solicitor General Perlman for the United States. L. A. Gravelle, Edward F. Howrey, Douglas Whitlock and John G. Mullen for respondents.
   Court of Claims. Certiorari granted, limited to the first question presented by the petition for the writ, i. e.:

“Whether the respondents are entitled to interest since 1855 on the value of the tribal lands. This depends on whether their claimed compensation rests on the Constitution or on the special jurisdictional act.”
