MosBY's CLAIM.
The Ex- Chinese Consul Must Go Through
Another Suit

WASHINGTON, March 13th.-A bout two months
ago the Court of Claims allowed Colonel John
S. Mosby about sl4 900 for tees collected by him
while Consul to Hongkong, which he had
turned into the Treasury instead of retaining.
He came here few days ago to collect the
amount, but found to his surprise an appeal had
been taken by the State Department. ihe time
allowed for an appeal in this kind of case is
ninety days, and the State Department took an
appeal just when eighty-seven of the days had
expired. His claim now goes on the Supreme
Court docket, and it will probably be several
years before it can be reached.

PLUMB'S MISSION.
The Alleged Object of the Kansas Sem
ator's Visit to Deer Park.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-It is under
stood that the visit of Senator Plumb to
Deer Park and Washington at this june
ture had no special connection with the
ccmmissionership ofpensions, with which
mission he has been credited. 1t is an
open secret, however, that in addition to
protesting vehemently against the ap-
poiEtment OF Mr.. Meserve OF Massachu-
setts as superintendent OF the Haskell In
dian Institute, and insisting vainly--as it
has turned out-that this position should
have been conferred upon Kansas in
cumbent, he has been quietly but no less
vigorously investigating the Indian bureau
at Washington and conducted under the
auspices OF Commissioner Morgan and
the Rev. Mr.. Dorchester, the superintend-
ent OF Indian schools, to see whether GER
tain religious sects have been discrim-
mated against in removals from positions
in the Indian service.
1t is alleged that Messrs. Morgan and
Dorchester are hostile to employees OF the
Catholic faith, and that in consequence
quite number of such Catholics EN-
ployed in the Indian schools and agency
service in the Indian territory, Kansas,
Nebraska and elsewhere have been dis
placed and their positions filled by per-
sons OF their own Religious creed.

HTNTON'S SAL.
The Value OF the Testimony on Irrigation
Taken In New Mexico.

In n recent letter in the Kansas City
Times, Mr.. Richard j. Hinton expert en-
gineer with the senatorial committee on
irrigation, writes
"The committee proceeded to Santa Fe,
where useful session was held, made so
by the ability to secure tho testimony of
so many representative men, owing to the
constitutional convention OF New Mexico
being in session. The evidence given
showed the practicability and value Of ir-
rigation. It was shown that about 700,-
900 acres are now under cultivation,
chiefly by the small ditch system, waste
full even OF the limited surface supply, in
vogue among the Mexican farmers. Those
of Indian pueblos are esteemed as more
economical. 1t was shown also that even
without storage large part OF the pres
ent supply goes to waste. II water was
obtainabIe it was agreed by all the COM
petent witnesses that at least 10 per cent
OF the total area of New Mexico could be
reclaimed to agriculture, and all agreed
there, as we'll as elsewhere, that one acre
of irrigated land would produce at least
four times as much Of all-round crops as
an acre OF arabic land within the humid
sections OF the land.
The return trip to El Paso was marked
by short stops at Las CrHces, in the valley
of the Mesilla, another Of the drainage
basins which Major Powell points out as
the seat of possible agricultural civiliza-
ton surprising all in that life of which
we have heretofore had knowledge, We
took breakfast at and rode in the lovely
field, orchard and garden with which the
valley is almost covered. This is the most
luxuriant fruit growing area in the terri
tory. 1t has long been under cultivation
and its forest and field is abundant evil
dence of what even q poor ditch system
can do in irrigating q prolific soil. 1t is
proposed by railroad and other active men
TO remedy the deficiencies OF the present
poor and inefficient system. A large ma
jority Of the bitches in use are over 100
years old. High line canals, with dis
tributories and reservoir system are now
proposed, and are likely to be constructed.
They will certainly be good investment.
