SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 2l.-A few
days ago John w. Dwinelle, who
has been acting as special counsel
for the city and county In matters
connected with the pueblo lands
contest, filed with United States
Surveyor. General Wagner, to be
forwarded to the Commissioner
General of the Land Office at
Washington, protest against
what is known as the StrattOn sur
vey, which was recently approved
by the Commissioner aud a certain
time given in which to file a pro-
test. It appears that Dwinelle's
action was unauthorized by the
Board of Supervisors, and, last
evening, the Board adopted res
olution ordering the dismissal OF
DwineIle as special counsel.
