peaceful intentions OF the Russians.

SANTA FE. n. NJ, Jan. 24-The Supreme Court
OF New Mexico yesterday in the case OF the United
States VS.. the San Pedro and Canon Del Aqua
grants reversed the decision rendered In the court
below three years ago. The court held that the
Canon Del Aqua Springs marked the east boun-
dairy OF the land defined In the original Mexican
grant, and that all the valuable mining land lying
east OF those springs and now claimed by the CON-
pany is Illegally held by them The court further
held that there was nothing In the grant which
went TO show that Congress intended to deed away
TO the original claimant AL valuable gold and Sill
yer mines upon IL, the grant simply beng made
amounts TO over million acres, ana the case Will
be appealed TO the supreme Court This decision,
II sustained by the Supreme Court, secures 10 the
people the right TO all the minerals contained
within the public domain. This will secure TO New
Mexico a Large influx OF mining people and thereby
add greatly 10 the development OF that country.

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Jan. 24.-Tankeryille Chamberlaine,
late British acting consul at Panama, writing with
reference TO the refusal OF the French government
to sanction NJ. de Lesseps' scheme for q lottery.
says: "Most OF the information given 10 the world
from time to time about the canal is false. can,
from examination on the spot, whence 1 only re-
turned a few months ago. say that II the enemies
OF the project fancy for moment that its death
knell is pealing they are disagreeably mistaken"
There is no doubt, he thinks that Lesseps has
met with tremendous obstacles IN the last seven
years, and certainly was deceived as TO the
amount needed for the construction OF the canal,
but In spite OF all mpediments he has stuck 10 his
guns as he did at SueZ. The actual work on the
canal has been as follows: Section from Colon 10
Bohio, II miles; the long cut from Bohio 10 Mat
chin will be completed next year. The section
from Metachin to Paraiso, including the cut OF
Culebra, has been entrusted TO Ethel, the tower
engineer, to hand over with the locks In February
1890. The section from Paraiso to RIO 0rande VIII
be terminated In June OF next year. Lesseps has
not abandoned the scheme or a tidc-leyel canal,
but only has recourse TO locks at present 10 inau
gurate transit as quickly as possible. The work
OF excavation will continue after the canal Is open
to navigation by tunneiing or otherwise.

THE EASTERN BRANCH BRIDGE.
No Compromise with the Railroad
Company, and the Suit will 20 ON.

The proposition" Of the Pennsylvania Railroad
co. to the War Department, In regard to the East
ern Branch Bridge dispute, proves to be unsatls-
factory to the Government engineers. Instead OF
submitting detailed plans OF their proposed
changes together with drawings and specifica-
tfons, as was expected OF them and as seemed
TO be definitely understood at the time OF the
last conference between the engineers and
the railroad people, the latter have sent
an Informal, desultOry letter Offering to make ar
rangements with the contractor. In view OF the
fact that the contractor is bound under penalty
follow his agreement with the Government strictly
ana without deviation, this proposition on the part
OF the company cannot be considered, for any
changes In the original plan must now be made by
the Department. Hence this move is regarded by
the chief o. engineers as merely for the purpose OF
gaining time. He stated to-day that the suit for
an injunction, proceedings in which have been
stopped TO permit this attempt at compromise,
would now be pushed as rapidly as the nature VI
legal things will allow. lie does not know how
far or how seriously the recent change IN the ad-
m1n1stration OF the district attorneys Office will
Affect the progress OF the suit but he believes that
they will be able 10 go on with the work by the
opening OF spring,
