Mr.. Turner En- barrassed

The many Upper Peninsula friends
of Hon. James nj. Turner, of Lansing,
will he sorry to hear that he is in finan
cial straits, and has had to give bill Of
sale of all his personal property to
James L. Joy and Christian H. Bull, of
Detroit, for the benefit of themselves,
the Ingham County Savings bank, the
Central Michigan Savings bank, Of
Lansing, the Detroit National bank,
and Stephen Baldwin, OF Detroit. The
bill of sale is to secure an Indebtedness
in the shape of bank drafts, and checks,
aud promissory notes to the extent of
$4,000. The title to the personal
property vests in Joy and Bull but the
property is to remain in Turner's pos
session for six months and to revert to
him in case he by that time meets the
indebtedness. The trustees also take
possession of all bis book account, etc.
Later in the day Turner fled trust
deeds to substantially the same parties
covering his real estate in Ingham and
other counties under similar conditions
as the bill of sale. Turner and his at
torneys are reticent in regard to the
condition of his affairs but declare that
all debts will be paid in full If he is
given time to get his matters into shape.
His iron mine, the Great Western, locat-
ed in the Upper Peninsula, has been q
losing investment for the last year,
owning to the depressed condition Of
the iron market, and it is understood
his embarrassment can in measure be
attribi.ed to this.

Some Hope Yet.

The house, in committee Of the whole.
last Monday, agreed to the bill estab-
fishing q state normal soho in the
Upper Peninsula. This puts it in a
favorable position for passage in the
house. Now il we can pursuade the
senate to act promptly and favorabls
on the bill when it reaches there we
may get the normal school, after all.
The passage OF the bill would undoubt-
edly strengthen the democratic party in
this end Of the state, but whether the
lower peninsula politicians will leok at
the matter in that light il questionable.
p. Slater de-patche, state that
the bill was defeated in the house by a
vote OF 20 yeas to 81 nays. Mr.. st.
CLAIR will endeavor to get reconsider
alton OF the vote.

Another Land Decision.

The Chicago Tribune of the 18th inst
contains n special from Washington
pnrporting TO give the particulars OF
the decision of Acting Secretary Chand-
Ter in the ease Of Will an papin (or La
chance) VIZ. Mallon Mauger and Frank
w. Foote, hut tbi : news amer version
is apparently ~ absurd in many immnort-
aut points. and in it's statement of I icts.
thnt it il difficult to determine from it
just what the secretary does decide.
So much can lie gained from it with
out doubt, is that it reverses the COM
missioner's decis ion, but whether it Iii
reefs the allowance of the entry of La
chance, or merely the allowance Of his
apple ,tion for hearing is impossible
to determine until more definite de
tails are obtained.
The tract in controversy is located
near Portage Entry, and was formerly
a part of the NJ, Fl. & o. indemnity
lands which were thrown open to set
Element August 10, 1887, and to entry
Oct. 10 following. In October, 1888,
Mauger aud Foote made homestead en-
tries of adjoining quarter sections upon
which were some abandoned improve
ments that had Geen used for the pur.
pose of fishing. There was nothing on
the records OF the land Office to show
that these tracts were claimed by any
other party. In July, 1889, Lachance
made homes cad application for lands
including these old improvements, and
conflicting with both the entries OF
Mauger and Foote. This application
was accompanied with affidavits alleg-
ng that Lachance had settled upon the
land in 1864, had made TIE place his
home and that substantial improve
merts which he had made had been APP
propriated by Mauaer during his tenn
porary absence. The register and re-
ceiver rejected his a plication and re-
fused to order hearing. The case
was appealed to the commissioner Who
affirmed the decision of thet local Office
Tho case was then appealed by La
chance to the secretary of the interior
with the re ult above stated.
We think the decision Of the secre.
tary simply directs the register and re-
ceiver to order hearing to ascertain
the facts. 1t is not to bc presumed
that the secretary would direct the
cancellation of MaIger's and Foote'S
entries and the allowance of the entry
Of Lachance upon erpdrte evidence
only. Hence the Tribune article is un-
doubtedly erroneous or misleading.
