Foran, of Ohio; Martin, of Alabama; Mer-
riman, of New York, and Wallace, of

as to prevent the accumulation of a surplus
in the treasury, but insist that it shall be
effected by some measure which shall en-

charred. A heavy weight had rested upon
them, and through the open cracks in the
leather AMI where the upper was partially
torn away from the sole, crushed and bloody
flesh protruded, half charred by the fierce
heat to which it had been subjected. The
feet had evidently been entirely broken from
the legs, and the body carried TO a lower
level, for 10 other portions of the body were
found at the time. the shoes were evidently
those OF Palmer, for they were found at
about the spot where his desk would have
fallen in the crash, and it is known that
Palmer had the same kind of shoes. No por-

Falls land cases were decided to-day by
Secretary Lamar. In the homestead case of
Robert Simmonds VS.. James Clancy, it was
found that the land in dispute was within the
twenty-mile limit of the Hastings s. Dakota
railroad grant. The case was remanded to
the commissioner of the general land Off ce
for further action. Exactly similar was the
case of A. NJ. Simmons VS.. James Clancy,
and the same disposition was made of the
case. a motion tor review made by Cyrus
Hill who entered homestead on the south
east a section 26, town ILL., range 81, in the
Huron, OAK, district, was denied. Hill CON-
muted a homestead. paid cash, and took
certificate in December, 1884. The next day
he mortgaged the land to the United States
mortgage company for $500. The company
assigned the mortgage to Elizabeth H. Rich
ardson. Hills case was opened up, and it
appeared that he had not lived on the land
according to law. The secretary decided that
the United states cannot fight mortgages,
and in case people make loans on entry

tains Commissioner Sparks.
