Mr.. Louis Sherry very generously
placed a white mahogany round table in
his saiesroom, Fifth avenue and Thirty
seventh street, last Saturday, which was
occupied by monster petition. to be
signed by 100 600 citizens and ciu-

Sherry was persuaded to sign the petit

BIGGEST LAND CLAIM YET.

New Mexico and Arizona. rhe east
boundary OF the grant Is about ten
lies east of this place, and tn. grant
ltcnds westward $50 miles, including
Ioenix, the capital of Arizona.
|'he width of the grant is about eighty
les. Between this place and Phoenix
ere are about dozen towns OF much
portance. and some of the richest
hneral and agricultural regions of the
L,tire Southwest, all Of which Is In
1uded In this enormous grant which Is
laimcd by a man named ReaVis and
ia associates, who have formed COM
f,anv for the prosecution of the claim
Reay,s has devoted about thirty years 20
ra athering testimony in support of the
claim.
!, 1t is alleged that he discovered evil
fdence of the claim while he was en-
ployed In a law office at st. Louis. 1t Is
said that there Senor Don Miguel Silva
de Peralta de la Cordosa obtained the
grant from the Spanish King in 174S.
Reavis married in California the only
descendant Of Peralta. and the claim Is
also based on the right of the woman as
an heir of the original grantee.
The attorneys in the case are j..
|. o. Brodhead. of st. Louis United States
Minister to Switzerland: =. Is. Thomp-
son. jr. of Kentucky, and j. II. knaebel.

New York. as special counsel for the
Government. having been elected to con-
duct the case by Acknowledgement OIL
ney. The claimants are ready for trial
at the next term OF the Land Court,
which will be held in Santa Fe in May.
but 1t will take the attorneys for the
Government. perhaps two years to make
| all the necessary preparations.
Since Reavis commenced working up
the case the heirs Of Miguel Silva, who
also claimed to be descendants of Per
alta have filed their claim in conflict
with the Reavis claim, for 100000 acres
OF land. The copper mines at Clifton
and Globe, the most valuable In the
Southwest and gold districts of Pinoss
Altos, Carlisle, Mogollon, Cooney and
Silvy Creek, are also covered by the
grant If 1t should be confirmed 1t
woud make the claimants the largest
land owners in the United States, and
at the same time the wealthiest company
in the country.
