Land S,trsey Dec,sion.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-In the ease of Ran
cho vs. Ell Allisal, where proceedings were
pending in the United Strtes district court for
confirmation or correction of a survey at date
of passage July LIST. 1864, the secretary of the
interior has decided that the jurisdiction of the
court attached, notwithstanding the fact that
prior to that time the matter had been mis-
takenly and improperly brought into court
under an erroneous construction of the act of
June 18th, 1860. The word pending without
qualification means actual tendency without
reference to the question whether or not objec-
ton might be raised to the original jurisdiction
in the case. Consequently, approval of the
survey by the court in 1865 was final, and
nothing remains for the commissioner of the
general land office but to issue patent in
conformity to the decree. The secretary fur
ther decides that decree of a court OF the
United States, upon proceeding substantially
in rem, where the United States is party, is
conclusive upon the subject matter unless re-
vised upon appeal in judicial tribunals, and
that the executive branch of the government
has no authority to review it, nor disregard
it, nor set it aside, and that when
such decision has been rendered upon
a survey under the acts of 1860 aud 1864, and
ID survey approved, it is necessarily final, and
must be followed by issue of the patent.
In the case which called forth the decision
the commissioner general of the land office de-
cided that inasmuch as the case was not pro-
perly before the court it was not pending IN
the sense this word is used in the act of June
ii, 1860. This decision reverses the commis-
sioner's ruling, and confirms to parties in
whose favor the court decided.

1t MARSHALL, Mo.

MARSHALL, Mo-, Jan. 9.-J. r. Phelps was
hanged here about noon to-day for the murder
of Elijah Keyton, wealthy farmer who lived
near Brownsville, in Saline county, on the
night of the Esd of last April. Phelps work
ed on the farm. He had disagreement with
Mr.. Keyton about some work, and on the
night mentioned above followed him to
feeding lot a short distance from the house,
killed him With an axe, and robbed the body
of about $100. He made confession detail
ing the manner in which the murder was COM
mitted, slightly duplicating another workman
named Chas. L. Wood, stating that he( Phelps)
had it in his mind for three weeks before the
murder to kill Keyton. Phelps was in love
with Keyton's canghter, bu. was strongly
opposed by the o. man, and to remove this
obstacle to his h:i, mess, in connection with
the disagreem lit above mentioned,

arose about o'c'ock this morning and dres-

town, where crowd of several thousand PEG.
pie were assembled. Miss Keyton was pres
ent and wept bitterly. The condemned man
make brief speech, in which he asked to, be
forgiven, warned all young men to beware of
his fate, and said he recognized his sweetheart
in the crowd, at which the young gill cried
Historically, and Phelps himself was greatly
moved. The sheriff sprung the bolt at.12:10
p. m, and the wretched man was dead in eight
minutes. Great sympathy was manifested by
by the crowd for Phelps, and there were shouts
OF "ion't hang hi n" He was fine looking
young man of % years, and was doubtless i'm
PEELED to commit the bloody deed by his love
for Keyton's daughter.

better condition than he was led to think it

expressed as to how it would be found now.

Treasury CrOckedness.

WASHINGTON, Jan. GA member of the
senate committee on appropriations says the
investigation into the contingent fund ex-
penditures has developed numerous irregulari-
ties of the description of the one brought out
Yesterday in connection with the purchase OF
sleigh and bells, which was entered on the
treasury books and records as the purchase OF
wagon. He says in numerous cases vouch-
ers have been falslfied so as to represent the
purchase of something entirely different from
the article really bought, that recklessness, if
not more, has been exhibited in the mode of
paying out money, and that money paid out
of one fund has been frequently charged to
another He says the examination of irregu-
larities of this character that have been DIS
covered, will consume considerable time yet,
as the committee are determined TO trace the
responsibility 10 all these matters.

elaborate Those of the committees that
were selling the tickets report ready sale,
Notwithstanding the price is fixed at $40. The

as to the number OF tickets to be disposed of,
so that the incon Yenience of too large crowd
may be avoided. The list of subscribers will
be ready soon and will be published. 1t is in
tended to have it include the solid business
men of st. Paul.
THE MERCHANTS HOTEL.
The banquet will be given at this we'll known
and popular house, and COL Allen has com.
ple.ed his arrangements, which will indicate
to some extent what he can do in this line,
when called upon. He has determined to have
the large dining hall suitably decorated for
the occasion. To accomplish this he has en-
ployed Mr.. A. j. Hinsdale, the well known
architect and art decorator, to design and ar
range decorations. The music stand for the
Great Western band will consist of q raised
platform to accommodate seventeen musicians.
The style will be Pavilion, and the top of the
pavilion will be adorned with the American
eagle, with ribbons from the bills to two large
stars on each side. Below the eagle will be
the Minnesota coat of arms, and broad frieze
with labor, industry, agriculture and naviga-
ton emblems placed thereon, and also two
large punches of wheat at the base and above
all will be the word "Welcome" in
silver letters. All the emblems will be in
silver. The decorations consist of red, white
and blue. The frieze of the dining hall will
be festooned with flags and the ceiling will be
festooned from chandelier to chandelier, and
arranged with silver stars. The windows will
be lanbrequined artistically.
The committee will probably have meet
ing to-day to compare notes and see how far
along towards completion all the arrange
ments are, and to consult generally the de-
tails of the arrangements.

be the president the remainder of the four
years, and he (GarfielD will be the laughing
stock OF the country. In return Reid pro
duces the following letter from Garfield to
show that he was not regulated by others:

followed out since the commencement of

do not endorse some of the sentiments

every principle Of manly impartiality.
Guiteau is not having fair trial in any
sense of the word. His counsel is not! as
able or free to act as the opposition.
They are continually harrassed by vexa-
tious obstruction placed in their way by
every one. Their witnesses are afraid to
testify because of public opinion. They
are hampered and restricted by threaten
ing letters from liberty and justice low

forward in advancing the interests of the
laboring class, and so valiant in fighting
for the principles of democracy, has for
gotten that it is nobler to defend than to
prosecute mankind.

BOND FRAUDS IN DAKOTA.
Charles L Strong, Assessor of Douglass
County, Tells How the Swlndle Was
Worked In That County,

NEWARK, N. j., Jan. 6.-Charles E. Strong,
of Yankton, Dakota, reported connected with
the Douglas county bond and warrant frauds
of that territory, is visiting this city. He
states that his connection and operation was
for the purpose of the detection of the frauds.
He was appointed assessor six days after his
arrival at Brownsville, the county seat, and
received warrant for $3.50 individually as his
share of this plumber. The county seat con-
sisted of few shantes and eight inhabitants,
most of them officials. They have issued $780,
GOOs bonds, although there is practically no
property in the county, and only score or so
of people. Besides numerous warrants for
salaries, ETC., the bonds are said to be dis
tributed in Minnesota and other western
states and in New York, while few have
gone abroad. Mr.. Strong says he expects to
return to Dakota soon to testify against the
company officials. The county treasurer,
named Sutciiffe or Radcliffe, is said to hail
from Newark.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa, Jan. 6.-Walker H.
Brown, late OF Emmett county, this state, and
in 1878 the Democratic candidate for congress
in this district, was the man who secured the
Organization of Douglas county, Dakota, and
issued the recent bogus warrants and bonds.
He constituted the county government, and
his name vouches for the worthless paper 90
far discovered. Reports here have it that
Brown has left the country.
