SEVERE BLOW TO LoeoeRs.
No Pine to BE Cut on Indian Lands This
Minter-Many Firms Out.

No Pine to BE Cut on Indian Lands This
winter-Many Firms Out.
The announcement that no pine viii
be cut on the Indian reservations in this
State this winter is severe blow to the
reservation lumbermen at Eau Claire
and in other northern towns. Consid-
cradle money and supplies have been
advanced on speculation to Indians on
contracts which will never be approved.
Loggers have about $4,000 tied up in
supplies on the Flambeau reserve alone
and as much more in the improvement
of streams and roads. Some loggers
went as far as to build houses for the
Indians on the strength of the contracts.
The Eau Claire firms claim to be $50, 600
out.

AN IMPORTANT LAND DEc.sroN,
Secretary Noble Decides Suit In Favor
of the Northern Pacific Rail-
road Company.


road Company.
WASHINGTON, July 16.-The secretary
of the interior rendered decision IN the
celebrated case Of r. E. Spicer and others
versus the Northern Pacific Railroad
company, James N. Glover and others
intervenors. The case involves the status
of tract Of land in an odd numbered
section within the primary limits OF the
company's grant, upon which portion
OF the city Of Spokane Falls, WASH, is
located. The land is said to be valued at
more than $8,00O,0OO. 1t was claimed by
Spicer that the land was excepted from
the company's grant of Spokane by an
Indian named Enoch, and April 10, 1890,
the secretary directed that hearing be
had to determine the status OF the land at
the date of the definite location of the
company's road when Its rights attached.
Subsequently intervenors to have the
order for the hearing revoked upon the
ground that the Indian, Enock, had
never severed his tribal relations::and was
therefore unable to make any valid set
tlement that would except the land from
the grant. Upon new evidence submit
ted, the secretary revoked his former
order, directing herring and dismissed
the application Of Spicer and other that
the tract should be surveyed as a town
site for the reason that upon
the whole record now before him,
it conclusively appers the said Indian
had never severed his tribal relations and
that there was not sufficient showing for
ordering the hearing before the local Of
ticers. This decision in effect confirms
the railroad title as against the parties
claiming an adverse interest.

SALE OF THE COMPROMISE.

Another Neihart Mine Changes Hands
Great Falls People buy it.
The Compromise mine at Neihart was
sold few days ago, under bond, on
the basis of $4,000. The bond was first
secured by H. 0. Chowen and Jack Will
son, but the latter's interest was purchas-
ed by A. f. Dickerman and 4. E. Col
lins.
By the terms OF the sale Pat Boyle re-
ceived $4,000, Jack Altman $4,000 and
VIM. Muller $4,000, and Messrs. Chowen,
Dickerman and Collins became the
owners Of the mine. The Compromise
is an extension of the Moulton and is
doubtless good property. Some of the
ground lies in the valley and is valuable
as townsite property.
