Letters were received this morn
 ing at the Prescott, Arizona, land office, from the Commissioner of the general land office transmitting decisions of the Hon. Secretary of the Interior in the contest cases of the Atlantic X Pacific R. R. Co. vs.
 Farrell Tiernan and the A. X P. railroad company vs. Lewis A. Will lard. The land involved in the con test is in odd numbered sec tions and is located in the limits of the old Camp Verde Indian reservation and within the limits of the primary grant of the above company. The secretary sustains the decision of the com mssioners in favor of the settlers, the principal points in the decision being that the reservation is a valid one; that the reservation was created in Nov. 1871, and the lands embraced in the company's land grant did not attach, and were not withdrawn from settlement until May l7, 1872. and that the act of Congress of July p, 1866, granting lands to the company, exempted from its operations lands embraced in reservations. There are several other land claimants in the above reservation, whose claims are similar to those of Herman and Willard. The company is allowed thirty days to file a motion for review in the case, and final action in the case will be suspended until the ex- piration of this time. Should they fail to file such a motion within the above time these cases will pass to patent in favor of the claimants. Mir. Tiernan submitted his final proof in Nov. 1886 and Willard in Dec. 1889 and the cases have been Tn litigation ever since before the -------a-

leaving sll of her personal property and
real estate to her two sons, Charles H..
Price and VIM. L. Price. The deeds to
all of her property stipulate that the land
was purchased with her separate funds,
and it is claimed documentary evidence
and abundance OF testimony will be in
troduced to show that her husband did
not contribute any money whatever to
pay for any portion of what the deco
dent left.
W. ]. Fisher, her husband, who by
the will is completely ignored, is now
trying to secure portion of the estate,
having filed petition in opposition to
the one filed by the sons of the deceased,
asking to be appointed administrator,
and contssting the validity of the will.
Among the personal property left by
Mas. Fisher are several notes, aggregat-
ing s4040, signed by W. ]. Fisher in
favor of the deceased, no portion OF
which, it appears, has ever been paid.
These notes, it is said, being outlawed.
are not included in the estate.
The case was continued until next
Friday morning at 10 O'Clock, when
Judge Clark will pass upon the admit
tance of the will and the appointment

THB HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

The action Of Guatemala in suspend
ing payment in gold Of interest on her
bonds has created CONSERVATION in
financial circles in London, not go much
on account of the amount involved in
this default as in the fact that it is in all
probability the first step in reputation
OF the silver countries OF the payment of
national obligations in gold that were
incurred when the two metals were at
par. Guatemala owes little more than
$4,000, 900 in what may be termed gold
bonds. When these bonds were Issued
there was 80 little difference between the
value of the two metsle that objection
WAS considered of no Importance as to
whether they were Issued on a gold basi
or not. But now that the attack on sill
yer has brought that metal to grief the
countries that dea in that specie alone
are confronted with the fact that every
collar OF debt they owe has
besn sweled into two dollars; or, in
other words that their obligations have
