Hon John l.. Calvert. the well
known land attorney of Perry. was in
the city yesterday. Mr.. Calvert has
just won IA important land contest
case in the Perry land Office, by de-
cision which will result in the saving
of much money to litigants and estab
fishes ruling that will free many
land claimants from unnecessary an
noyance.
w. N Mitchell was the entryman
upon the northeast quarter of section
1 in township 81 and range 2 east
This 1C0 acres is said to be one of the
very prettiest and most valuable quar-
ter sections in the entire strip, every
foot Of ground being bottom land, ly-
ing well and very fertile. Mr.. Mitchell
was legally represented by j. l.. Cal.
vert whose office is upon the west
side of the public square at Perry
Later on, one A c. Hall, represented
by Dick Morgan, fled a contest upon
the same land. The trial has been
going on some ten days and brought
to Il close, as above stated last evening
The question raised and the issue
made by j. L. Calvert was this:
Should contesting parties claiming
prior settlement be required TO show
that they were qualified to enter land
before the entrymen or defendant
makes any defense? Common sense
and equity upon which law is supposed
to be based, would seem to suggest an
affirmative reply, for it is evident that
IL 1t can be shown satisfactorily that
a man be not qualified to enter upoE
land, a more or less tedious and ex-
pensive contest proceeding would be
obviated.
The question raised by Mr.. Calvert
was taken under advisement by both
Register Davis and Receiver King and
yesterday afternoons, these gentlemen
rendered their decision, which was
that the qualifications of contestant
should be shown before the entryman
or defendant is compelled to make a
defense. The question was decided in
the affirmative and in favor of Mr..
Calvert's client
The contestant had exhausted his
homestead right by taking land in the
year 1891 in old Oklahoma.

ADAIR, Iowa, April 2s-One hun
dred and twenty-one Sacramento men
were missing yesterday when Kelly
massed his industrial army for the
march. The march to-day was begun
under discouraging prospects. Rain
began falling soon after dawn and the
wagons that had been expected to
carry the army failed to materialize.
There were scarcely sufficient
teams to haul the baggage and
the sick and grumbling among
the men was loud and deep. Kelly
waited for teams, and then, dis
couraged, ordered the army forward,
telling the men to take to the rail
road instead of the wagon road il
they wished. but do not interfere
with trains" he commanded. "Ifyou
do, you cannot go further with me-"
There were no cheers from the
townspeople, no flowers for the gen
eral." The men tramped silently
along the soggy road and at the first
turn fully $50 of them turned upon
the railroad.
At Casey good-sized gift of pro-
visions was expected with hot coffee
hhN h'Ni' hO BiON hONCNtIs
consisted of lonely basket of bread
and "a solitary pound package of cof-
fee. There were no cheers for Kelly
and no songs from his men. The
townspeople gathered, curious but ST
lent, to watch the army straggle by
and followed to the camp ground TO
watch the men take dinner. Kelly
waf incensed at the failure to provide
food and we..t through the town with
out his customary smile. and bows.
During the afternoon Hc sent the fol-
lowing appeal to Mayor Bemis of
Omaha:

pated without Resort to Force.
ToLUcA, ILL.,, April 2s.-The miners
who halted for a rest at Big Sandy
last night broke camp at 4 o'clock this
morning and arrived here at o'clock
with the blare of brass band and drum
corps. There were nearly 4,5OO of
them. As they filed into town they
were met by the citizens.
Most of the colored miners working
here left for other places to avoid "a
skirmish, and are not likely to return
until the strikers leave town.
AS soon as the men arrived they as
sembled on the commons near Super
intendent Duggan's house, but ad-
journed TO await the arrival of the
army from Streator and Kangley.
This wing arrived later, having march
ed all the way from Streator.

j. A. Crawford of the state umon and
Vice President James w. Murray ar
rived in special train from Joliet
and conference took place between

cials wanted Mr. Devlin to address
the men, but he declined, saying that
he had not invited them here and con-
sequently had no desire to address
them.
The meeting was called to order by
Chairman O'Connor of Spring Valley
and was addressed by Messrs. Gill,
Crawford and Murray who counseled
peace, urged the army to leave and
let the Toluca miners decide for
themselves. Finally this was agreed
upon and Mr.. Devlin at once arranged
