A Mixed Case.

Years ago T. P McElrath filed home
stead entry on 100 acres of land near
Miles City. He is alleged not to have
complied with the law regarding it, and
w. w. Garland entered a contest. which
was decided in McElrath's favor by the
commissioner of the general land Office,
and appealed by Garland to the secretary
of the interior. Pending tbs latter deci-
sion compromise between the contest
ants was effected, McElrath proved his
claim and negotiated a loan for 81 800 by
mortgage ON the land. A few days ago
one A. 4. Campbell moved upon the
quarter section in question and filed
claim to it. Investigation proved that
the secretary Of the interior had decided
against McElrath, and that Campbell,
learning. presumably from the local land
Office, Of this fact, had quietly made his
entry to a property easily worth $4,000.
Rather mixed up affair, especially as tine
men who loaned the money % TcElratll

ERRORS IN THE TARIFF BILL.

Mr.. Mcpherson, clerk OF the house of
representatives, says there are many typo
graphical and clerical errors in the tariff
bill as it appeared in the Congressional
Record. The tax on tobacco is eighty
cents instead of eight cents, and in the
iron schedule is a clause which was not
printed in the Record at all. He is of the
opinion when the bill shall be actually
printed in full it will be found to be more
satisfactory than it now seems to be to the
representatives of iron interests.
The president has decided not to appoint
a chief examiner for the civil service COM
mission, but to let the commission appoint

Mr.. Nimmo, chief of the bureau of statis-
tics, studying maps and reports, and pre-
pairing himself for the work assigned him.
He Will visit the principal cities of the

THE AMOUNT OF THE ALABAMA CLAIMS.
The clerk of the court of commissioners
on the Alabama claims has made a partial

claims now pending before that court, that
2,200 cases out of the $500 filed, aggre
gate nearly $14,000,030, without interest
