Navy Department, Washington, Aug.
1S, 1890 -To the Commandment of the

occasion of the embarkation of the re-
mains of Capt. Ericsson, it is the desire
of the president to give solemn express
sion to the cordial and fraternal feeling
that unites US with kindred people,
the parent source of large body of
our most valued citizens, of whom the
late inventor. Scandinavian by birth
and an American by adoption. was the
most lllustrious example. In recogni
ton of this feeling, and of the debt we
owe to Sweden for the gift
of Ericsson, whose genius rendered
us the highest service in moment of
grave peril and anxiety, it is directed
that, at this other moment, when we
give back his body to his native coun-
try, the flag of Sweden shall be saluted

Capt. wetheren, of the Sea Wing

Capt. Wetheren, OF the Sea Wing,
Will at Least Lose His License.
The following dispatch was received
from Washington, d. c., last night:
"Inspector General Dumont, who went
to st. Paul to investigate the Sea Wing
disaster at Lake Pepin, returned to
Washington to-day. He says that while
he has not yet received the official re-
port of the board specially charged with
the investigation he knows that Capt.
Wetheren, who commanded the Sea
Wing, will be severely censured for his
action in leaving port i'll the face of the
storm and that his license will be re-
voked."
The reports of Capts. Knapp and
Yeager, who composed the local board
of Galena, ILL.,, and Capts. Menahan
and Chalk, of the Duluth board, and
who conducted the investigation, it is
expected, will be sent to Inspector Gen
eral Dumont to-day. When Gen. Du-
mont was here last week a conference
was had with him by the gentlemen
who conducted the examination. The
conference was in reference to the de-
tails and form of the report. 1t is un-
derStood that all the gentlemen will con-
eur in the report to be made. The
license of Capt. Wetheren will be re-
voked. and he will escape well if legal
actions are not commenced against him
for damages by persons who lost rela
tiYeS in the disaster

Trespassers on Chickasaw Lands
Must Vacate.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 18.-In compli-
ance with resolution passed by the
senate on June last, the secretary of
the interior sent to the senate to-day
mass of correspondence and reports re-
]ating to the invasion of the Chickasaw
and Choctaw Indian lands by white peo-
pie. The correspondence dates from
March, 1885. 1t includes memorial to
the president of the United States dated
July IL, 1889, from the congress OF the
ChickaSaw nation, praying for some
action on the part of the government
toward removing persons occupying the
Chickasaw lands without authority of
law,and letter dated June 81, 1890, to the
commissioner of Indian affairs from Gov.
Byrd, of the nation in which the COM
missioner is informed that the Chicka-
saw militia had been ordered out for
the purpose of enforcing the law upon
citizens of the ChickaSaw nation only,
and not upon United States citizens,
but sat the same time" the latter says,
1.-THE Chickasaws would feel grateful to
the United States government if the
intruders were moved beyond the limits
of our nation. s'My reason for giving
this information" says Gov. Byrd. lis
that newspaper men and others are
wont to miSrepreSent u.s." A letter
from the commissioner of Indian affairs,
dated July II, 1890, to the Indian agent
at Muscogee. l. T., directs the agent to
issue Immediately proclamation warm
ing all persons who reside in the Chick
asaw country contrary to the law to re-
move from the country before Nov. l,
1890, and thatan crops planted by them
will be planted at their own risk.
On July II last the commissioner of
Indian affairs wrote to the secretary of
the interior that the only impeachment
in the way of removing intruderS was
the want of sufficient military force, and
expressing the opinion that the govern
ment should relieve the Chickasaws of
their trespasserS complained of. Other
reports and communications show that
the interior department at different
times has directed the Indian agent to
remove the intruderS and that the
agent has been ready to execute
these directions but had been
deferred by the low state of the
appropriations for the purpose. The
Indian commissioner, in letter dated
Aug. ID, 1890. tells the secretary of the
interior that ''inaSmuch as the appr0-
pration for the contingencies Of the In
dian department is larger for the cur
rent year than for previous years, and
an amicable understanding with the
United States court for the eastern dis
trict of Texas by which the jurisdic-
tion of the Indian agency over the
question of intruders will be recognized
and sustained, has been received, there
appears to be no necessity at this time
for further legislation to enable the de-
partment to fulfill the treaty Obliga-
tions of the United States in respect to
these intruders and recommend none."

LANDS RICH IN MINERAL.
Tom Carter Wants them Exam.
ined and Classified.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 1S.--Rep-
resentative Carter, of Montana, to-day
reported to the house, from the COM
mittee on mines and mining, bill to
provide for the examination and class
ificatlon of certain mineral lands, etc.
1t authorizes the secretary of the inter-
ior to speedily cause all lands in Mon
tana and Idaho, within the land grant
and indemnity land grant limits of the
Northern Pacific Railroad company, to
be examined and classified by COM
petent persons with special reference to
their mineral or non-mineral character,
and to reject, cancel and disallow any
and all claims or filings heretofore
made, or which may hereafter be made,
by or on behalf of the railroad company
on land in those states classified as
mineral land. The word mineral shall
not be held to include iron or coal. The
bill also provides for appeals from the
findings of the examiners and for such
publicity of the classification returns as
will give notice to all persons of the
conclusions reached with regard to each
tract of land. The committee thinks
that with this publicity, and with the
right of appeal, it cannot be maintained
that property interests may be disposed
of under the bill without due process Of
law. The sum of $4,000 is appropriated
to carry out, the provisions of the bill.

American Railroads Earned
Nearly Billion Dollars Last
Year.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 18th
statistician of the interstate commerce
commission has completed his second
annual report to the commission. The
report covers the transactions of COG
roads, and shows the operations of 1885,
3S5 miles of line. The gross earnings
for the year, exclusive of rental of
tracks, yards and terminals, were $685.
SIG, 1919, or 5000 per mile of line; and
the operating expenses. exclusive of
rentals of tracks, yards and terminals,
S644, 70e, 701, or $4,203 per mile of line.
This leaves net income from opera
tons of 1920, 1O9,32S, or S2,0S7
per mile of line. After deductions are
made for fixed charges, the final net in
come for all the roads in the United
States was Sl01, 1888, 736, or S661 per mile
of line. The total amount of stocks is
shown to be $4,251: 190,719, of which
S347, 740,399 is owned by railway cor
porations. The total amount of bonds
is s., 1867, 527, 1859, of which 1904, 252, SOP is
owned by railway corporations. From
this it appears that the total stocks and
bonds representing railway property in
the hands of the public is 1866, 725, GIT.
The report further shows that the pas
senger earnings have increased from
30.46 per cent of total earnings in 1888
to 81. 10 per cent in 1889. while freight
earnings have decreased from 67.35 per
cent IN 1883 to 66.S2 per cent in 1899.

From the Prison City.
The residence of Judge E. B. Butts.
at the corner of Second and Cherry
streets, was seriously damaged by fire
at O'Clock yesterday morning. The
flames originated in the laundry, in
which a servant had started an early
fire in stove in order to accomplish
the family washing. and sparks from a
smoke pipe extending above the roof of
the addition caused the disaster. The
fire department did excellent and
prompt work and saved the main part
of the dwelling. The damage by fire,
smoke and water, and the hasty re-
moval of furniture in a damaged con-
dition is considerable; but Judge Butts,
who is ungble to approximate his loss,
says that the latter iscovered by insur-
ance.

CAN'T FIND A COMMITTEE.
Hitch on the Investigation of
Charges Against Raum.

WASHINGTON. Aug, 1s.--It appears
that Speaker Reed is having consider
able difficulty in securing full COM
mittee to carry out the order of the
house for an investigation into the
charges made against the commissioner
of pensions, Green B. Raum. There
was no trouble in securing Republican
members, and one Democrat, Mr.. Good
night, of Kentucky, was induced to
serve. But it seems that the second
Democrat necessary to complete the
committee cannot be found. Repre-
sentative Cooper. of Indiana. the author
of the resolutions upon which the inves
tgation was ordered, has been urged
upon the speaker to fill the vacancy
caused by the successive designations of
his fellow Democrats, Martin, of Indi-
ana; Yoder, of Ohio, and Mr.. Parrett,
of Indiana; but the speaker does not
think proper to appoint MI. Cooper,
who brought the charges against Mr..
Raum. to place where he would be eX-
pected to sit in Judgment.
