Commissioners Gron-s Latest Orders.

Official orders have just come from
COMMISSIONS Croft which warns land
Office officials at Pierre to protect the In
dians' rights to land on the reservation,
and says substantially and positively that
no Indian can sell his rights; therefore the
register is warned to take no filings for
lands from whites upon which Indians
were residing when the proclamation was
issued. This effects the new city of Stan
ley, opposite Pierre, which has already
reached good proportions, about 100000
having been invested there. 1t also makes
the claim of Black Tomahawk good to a
choice portion Of the town of Fort Pierre,
which is already a deadly rival of Stanley
for county seat honors.

MANITOBA Tax rifles Upset.

Great dismay exists over the disallowance
by the dominion government of the act
passed by the Manitoba Legislature to con-
firm tax sales. The effect is to upset hum
dreds of titles and throw them into q state
of hopeless confusion. The clause which
appears to have been Objectionable to the
minister of justice was one taking away
from the courts the power to set aside tax
sales on the ground that interest was
charged, leaving all other objections open
to compliments. Unless the difficulty can
be arranged endless litigation will ensue.

TO FILL THE LAKE FRONT.
Chicago Going to Make Ground For the
Exposition Site.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2s.-Lake Front park viii
almost certainly be the site Of the worlds fair.
The Daily Ne,os this morning announces au-
thoritativeiy that SO far as the Chicago sub
committee on site and general plans can de-
eide the question the location Of the fair d
settled The scheme provides for widening
the park out into the lake from 500 to ITO feet.
This will give 200 acres for the exhibition
buildings, Promensdes, depots, DO. The Illinois
Central railroad tracks now skirting the present
waters edge are to be lowered below grade and
covered with grass plat. As permanent i'm
provement the proposition will increase five
times the spack of Lake Front park and pro .
vide the largest park in the world, located in
the very center of great city. The site as
outlined is just % acres larger than the grounds
Of the Paris exposition. The lake front is the
focus Of the street car lines and is on belt
line railway that crosses every railroad track
entering Chicago. The site also has direct
water communication with all points on the
great lakes and all foreign ports whose shipping
can pass through the Welland canal. A grand
central railway station passenger depot is de-
signed to be erected at the foot Of Madison
street on the lake front.

A WAVE FIFTY FEET HIGH.
How the Water Came Down from the
Walnut Grove Dam.

PHOENIX, ARR, Feb. 26.--News from the
dam disaster reached here slowly. The com.
pany camp, three miles below the lower dam,
contained about 125 people two weeks ago, and
there were probably that many in it at the time
OF the disaster, and fears are entertained for
their lives. A courier, who has arrived from
near there, says he was awakened about
O'Clock In the morning by the shrieks of the
people. The wave was so feet high when he
hrst saw it, and was sparkling in the darkness
with millions of phosphorescent lights, and
with terrible roar almost instantly swept away
the tents and buildings. The canyon that was
full of cottonwood trees was swept clean. The
lower dam, a structure 240 feet long and 80
feet above bed rock, with 80 feet above surface,
was swept away.
A prospector, who was camping on a bluff
four miles below Wickenberg, says the sight
from where he stood was sublime in the ex-
treme. At narrow just below them, where
the canyon contracts to about to quarter of its
width between perpendicular rocks several
hundred feet high. the waters leaped up hun
dred feet high with a fearful crash and roar
and rushed through the narrow gorge like
lightning, cleaning out the last vestige Of
everything movable, leaving the bare, hard
rock.

OHIO MAKES SUGGESTIONS.
Mr.. Goshorn Nominated as Director
General Of the Worlds Fair.

Ohio's scent for Office is as keen az it ever
was. Mayor Mosby of Cincinnati was in the
city yesterday, and he called upon Mayor Gre
gier Of Chicago and other men Of prominence
from the windy city. His object was the put
ting in nomination A. T. Goshorn of Cincinnati
for the responsible position Of director general
Of the worlds fair. Mr.. Mosby's argument was
based on the facts that Ohio gave Chicago
twenty-one votes for the fair and that Mr..
Goshorn's experience as director general
Of the centennial Of 1876 placed him far
above the reach Of any competitor. Chicago
men have regarded Mr.. z. T. Jeffrey of their
own town as the person for that place, and
friends Of that gentleman will be much sur
prised il he does not get it. Mr.. Goshorn was
knighted by one Of the foreign power for
the work he did at Philadelphia.
Mr.. Mosby also advanced the idea that it
would be good thing for Chicago to invite
each civilized nation to send to the fair rep
resentative regiment of its soldiers. Some one
suggested that such an invitation had better
be given by the general government
but the amendment was not regarded with any
degree Of favor, sentiment being to the effect
that Chicago was Just now much larger than
the general government could ever hope to be-
Ohio would, if necessary, furnish q sufficient
number Of troops to keep the French and Ger
man regiments apart.
