JUSTICE LAMAR'S DEATH.
The United States Supreme Court Adjourns
After It's Announcement.

The United States Supreme Court AdjOurns
After It's Announcement.
When the United States Supreme Court met
usual at noon today a chair (between those
of Justices Gray and Brown draped in mourning
again told the story that between the adjourn
ment Of the court yesterday evening and it's re-
assembling there had passed away one of it's
members.
The death of Justice Lamar was not startling
to his associates. for they had realized when he
left this city for the south that in all proba-
bility he would not resume his seat on the
bench, yet it WAS unexpected and a shock to
them, for the last news they had from him was
to the effect that he was improving and getting
along quite nicely.
The bar and the audience quarters Of the
court were filed this morning when the
justices fled into their places and the
court was opened. Chief Justice Fuller
announced Mr.. Justice Lamars death in a
few words, saying: 'It again becomes my
melancholy duty to announce the death of a
member of this court Mr. Justice Lamar died
at Macon. Ga, last evening at $50. No bust
ness will be transacted. The court will adjourn
until Monday next"
The court crier at once declared the court
adjourned. The justices. with few exceptions,
will attend the funeral of Mr.. Lamar. Marshal
Wright has telegraphed to Macon, Ca, to as
certain when and where the funeral services
and interment will take place and will
make the arrangements for the members
Of the court to attend. Justice Field. who is
in feeble health, and perhaps some of the other
justices will remain here, but q majority of the
court will make the trip. Justice Lamar has a
daughter living in Rockville, Nd, married to a
cousin also named Lamar, who will probably
60 with the members of the court. Two
nephews Of the late justice also reside here.

VALUABLE LAND IN DISPUTE.
Decision Of the Register at Duluth i'm "sec
ton 3O'' Case

Decision Of the Register at Duluth i'm "sec-
tion 80" Case.
DULUTH, MINI, Jan. 24-The section 90''
case, involving iron lands valued at about
s3. 600, was ruled upon by Register Nichols
Of the land Office in the findings filed yester-
day.
The case had been twice before the Secretaries
Of the Interior. HYDE and Mcdonald origi-
nally filed upon the land while the township
was unsurveyed, but their right to the property
was denied on account of an agreement entered
into by them in violation OF the statute. After
long litigation and dispute Secretary Villas. in
1889, ordered the land again to be opened for
entry.
Before this order was received in Duluth,
but after it was made in Washington, William
Alden and H. E. James flied upon the property.
Their applications we're refused on the ground
that the local officer had no notice Of the order
The other contestants were c. p. Wheeler, whose
interest is that Of the Minnesota Iron Company.
and E. Hartman.
The claim OF the latter is disallowed In the
decision. while that of Wheeler where il does
not conflict with the claims OF Alden and James,
is admitted, and he is awarded one quarter sec
ton. Register Nichols holds that the order OF
Secretary Villas was In force from the time il
was made at Washington. and that while the
entry Of Wheeler was the first made after
notice was received here, this fact is unimport-
ant. James and Alden are the real successful
contestants.
The Germanis Iron Company, which claims
the land under a purchase from Emil Hart
man, whose application was accepted by the
officers Of the land Office in February, 1899 will
undoubtedly appeal.

provides that If, on the fourth Monday in
January, the electoral vote Of all the states has
not been received tho Vice President shall in
form the Secretary Of State of that fact. The
law also provides that one copy Of the electoral
vote Of each state shall be sent by mail and an
other by special messenger. and. in the event
that only one copy is received. the Secretary Of
State shall send a messenger to carry the other
to Washington.

An Amendment in Regard to Them to Be In

An Amendment in Regard to Them to Be In
serted in the Appropriation Bill.
The Senate committee on appropriations will
insert in the District appropriation bill the
provision quoted below. Commissioners
Douglass and Ross submitted the matter
to Mr.. Allison and he agreed to
insert the provision if the Senate
committee on the District of Columbia re-
ported upon it favorably. Yesterday afternoon
senator Mcmillan obtained the consent Of q
majority of the committee to act on it favor
was referred again to the committee on ap-
preparation.
II provides that the Commissioners of the
District of Columbia are authorized and di-
rected in all cases where original assessment
for a local improvement in the District Of Co
lumbia has been or may hereafter be
quashed, set aside or declared void
by the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict, by reason Of an imperfect or erroneous
description Of the lot or parcel Of ground
against which the same shall have been levied,
or by reason OF such assessment not having
been authenticated by the proper officer,
or Of defective return Of serv-
ice, Of notice, or for any tech
nicd reason other than the right of
the public Authorities to make the improvement
to reassess the said lot or parcel of ground in
respect of the improvement mentioned in such
defective assessment. with power to collect the
same according to existing law relating
to the collection Of assessments and taxes.
Provided, That in cases where such assessments
have heretofore been quashed or declared void
by said Supreme Court for the reasons herein
before provided. the assessment herein provided
for shall be made within one year from the
passage Of this act and that in ell other cases
Il shall be made within thirty days after
such assessment shall have been quashed, set
aside or declared void; and provided further.
that said assessments shall bear interest at
tho rate Of six per cent per annum from the
date the original assessment should have been
paid had it not been quashed or set aside.
The bill was accompanied by statement from
the Commissioners to the effect that they are
advised that it is entirely competent for Con-
eress to enact such Law. Such q law will not
receive or make valid the original assessments,
but will simply order that new and in
dependent assessments be made to collect
moneys which the District has In good faith
expended in improving the public streets and
| avenues Such q law exists in q number of
states and they think there should be one here.
The amount involved is about "a, 600. 900, about
| AGO 600 of which has been lost to the District
| BY the decision Of the courts.
