A Minority Report.

Washington, June GA minority of
the house committee on public lands
have prepared report signed by Messrs.
Van Eaton and Oates, democrats, in
which they defend the secretary of the
interior and commissioner of the gener-
al land Office, against the charges made
issued patents for lands granted in vio-
no further steps should be taken by the
department to confirm or patent lands
granted in violation of the law. The
minority agree that no further steps
should be taken by the department to
confirm or patent lands granted by con-
gress in any case in which there has
been report made either by the senate
or house in favor of forfeiture until con-
gress finally disposes of the case, but
they object to the proposition that pat
ents must be withheld merely because
forfeiture bill is introduced in congress-
Mr.. Oates and Mr. Van Eaton protes
against the majority report, because it
expressly preiudges every railroad land
grant case, by asserting the grants have
not been earned in q single case. They
| also object to the passage of resolu.
tion which prohibits the secretary of the
interior from issuing patents to any cor.
porations, except when there has been
strict technical compliance with the law,
and makes the secretary the judge to
ascertain and determine when the condi.
tions are performed. This resolution
r etracts by application to companies
which are acting under the law, but out
of time constructed roads, aud became
entitled to lands co.terminous with the
completed portion of their road. It
thus takes away vested rights without
due process of law. In conclusion, the
minority inquire why the majority do
not pass law, to enable the land grant
roads to test their rights in the courts.
"Why continue to give them poIitico.

A Heavy Rai,, Storm,

Pittshurg, June 12-Points along the
Allegheny valley were visited yesterday
by one of the heaviest rain storms known
for many years, causing the most de-
structive food since 1865. At Burkville,
Pa, a water spout burst, and in less than
two hours the creek rose ten feet trans
forming it into seething, foaming tor
rent. The rapid rise gave the mill men
no chance whatever to save their stock.
The dams at the North Fork mills,
Bryant & Wainswrights and Stitch mills
gave way, carrying with them lumber
valued at $4,000. Two bridges were
washed away and many small buildings
demolished, and a number of families
driven from their homes and compelled
to seek shelter elsewhere for the night.
At Pittsburg the raise in the
Allegheny river last night was
very rapid and a number OF
coal barges were swept from their moor.
ings, but were caught by tow boats un-
injured. The flood at Brookville brought
down about $4,000 pieces of lumber and
almost every owner OF skitf is busy
catching drift.wood. The water is now
subsiding and no further damage is an.
ticipated.
A special from Martinsville, w. w.,
says terrific thunder storm passed over
the city last night doing considerable
damage. A boy named Mcintyre and a
companion who took refuge under the
trees were rendered senseless with
lightning which struck the tree. Nc
Intyre's recovery is doubtful.
