What might has e been o serious
conf sgration was discovered Yesterday
by Pro-. Bach's teamster In a pile of
wood adjoining a log shack In the
neighborhood Of Bach's Ice house. A
quantity Of newly sawed and spIit
wood piled against the shack had,
through some means unknown. taken
fire and was blazing up In Q lively
manner when noticed. A few buckets
Of water sufficed to put out the fire
and no dsInsge was done. The only
reasonable solution IL that the person
who had been cutting the wood had
been smoking and allowed a spark or
the stump of n cigarette to fall among
the sawdust and splintens. The fire
occurred about noon.

were appointed 20 examine surveys and Ger
iify Ia the general land office 0s - their pay
for services They could not keep up With
the work. aud the clJims of SURVIVORS were
hung up. some of them apparently lost for
ever. In several instances the nppropria-
tions lapsed before the settlement came and
the money was carried back into
the treasury. That left no pay for
work done except 10y the presentation
10 congress of claim and the tedious grind
that followed. Complaints have been
coming in from all the states who're public
lands TO any great extent were located.
The land department has been inyesti-
eating. and found that Mr.. Parsons WIS SO
welded ~ The system that he could not get
away from it, One claim from Washington
was held in his Office for two weeks after II
was ready for settlement for no reason
whatever. So far as could be learned, and
this was the cause Of his dismissal. There
have been many complaints FROM Colorado,
Nebraska the two Dakotas. Montana and
Washington.
