LAND GRANTS SET ASIDE.
An Important Ruling of the Court o.
Land Claims.

Land Claims.
In the United States Land Court at Santa
Fe opinions have been announced In favor Of
the United States in the ease Of the Rio Colo
rado grant involving l9,000 acres in Taos
county and the San Antonito grant, said to
cover 10000 acres moi far from Albuquerque,
in Bernallllo county. These grants were made
by Mexican projects and were subsequently
ratified by the then governor Of New Mexico
The court holds that projects had no authori-
ty 10 make grants and the ratification Of the
governor is insufficient to establish ownership
in present claimants. The decision Is i'm
poriant as 1t effects fully dozen other grants
In New Mexico.
1t is doubtful II the cases will be appealed
10 the United State Supreme Court. Settlers
on these tracts will not, however, lose thclr
individual homes for they may yet file claims

cHHAGo. March 20. Sixteen hundred
pounds of sterling silver were melted in
IA rrucible at Grand Crossing this morn
ing. This afternoon the molten mass
was poured into huge mold. and Mon
tana S silver statue of Justice was an
accomplished fact.
For the past six weeks half a dozen
master founders have been engaged in
preparing for the event. The mold
which would reproduce the plaster mod
el made by Sculptor Park was made
r~om French clay and was hardened by
burning. 1t was then placed in IA pit
and prepared for today's event. Among
those present were: President Palmer
Of the national commission. President
Higginbotham of the Chicago directory:
Chief Skill of the mining department
and Judge Bickford of the Montana
executive commissioners.
An hour after the molten metal was
poured into the mold the latter was re-
moved. and the statue. which is indeed
a thing Of beauty. stood revealed in
white. shining metal. its majestic pro-
portions showing to the greatest possible
advantage.
Not only is the statue an exact repro
duction Of the figure Of Miss Rehan. but
the features are hers also. The heigh
of the statue is five feet 10 inches. and
it will stand upon silver globe two feet
i'm diameter. The statue will remain in
the vaults Of the safe deposit company
until the time comes for placing it in
