POTOMAC FLATS CASES
Formal Decree Signed by the Judges To-
day.
Time and Method of Appeal-The
Courts Decision Confirmed in
All Particulars.

The formal decree in the Potomac flats
case was signed in the Court in General
Term (Chief Justice Bingham and JUS
tices Hagner and McComas) this afternoon.
The decree conforms to the decision of the
court rendered on the 7th instant, as re-
ported in, The Star at the time. and con-
firms the title of the United States, abso-
lutely, to all the lands and waters in con-
troversy. in the Potomac flats and along
the river front, from about Easby's Point
to the arsenal grounds. Owners in certain
lots in squares 63, 50, 129 and 14S, between
18th and 9th streets, are declared to be
entitled to be Unidentified because Of the
extension of the river front improvements.
But the court finds that there exists some
doubt as to the titles of the various lot
owners, and. for the purpose of establishing
these titles. the court directs that testf-
mony shall be taken before Examiner AL
bert Harper. Testimony is also directed to
be taken. that the question Of damages may
be determined The claimants are given
fifteen days in which to submit their tes-
timony, the government to have ten days
for the Introduction of it's testimony, and
then the claimants are to have five days
for rebuttal.
the 10th of next month, and on the 21st of
next month the court will meet to consider
that testimony.
The court fixed the amount of the appeal
bends at $500 each, and Attorneys Ma
thaniel Wilson, Geo. E. Hamilton, T. A.
Lambert, John Selden, o. D. Barrett, J. T.
Gull, Gordon & Gordon and b. S. Minor
gave formal notice of an appeal on behalf
of their respective clients.
1t is understood that an appeal will be
roted by all of the fifty-odd claimants, the
appeal being direct to the United States

THE SUGAR BOUNTY CASES.
Secretary Carlisle to Give Mr.. Man
dersOn n Hearing.

dersOn n Hearing.
Ex-senator Henderson of Nebraska will
be given a hearing by Secretary Carlisle on
bounty cases as to the Jurisdiction of the
controller Of the treasury. After Control
Ter Bowler's decision to send the cases to
the Court of Claims, Secretary Carlisle
promised the sugar men that he would
hear them, if they desired it, on this ques-
tion. Last night the Secretary telegraphed
ex-senator Manderson. notifying him that
the Court of Claims will meet on the 2Sth
of this month, and unless the question as to
the controllers jurisdiction was raised be-
fore that time he would send the claims to
the court. This morning rhe Secretary re-
ceived a reply from Mr.. Henderson, renew
ing his request for a hearing, and asking
that the time for the hearing be fixed for
some date before November 10. In his tele-
gram Mr.. Manderson declares that the con-
troller neither had jurisdiction nor the
right to send the cases to the Court of
ants. II regard the position of the claim
ants as unassailable," said the telegram.
Although Secretary Carlisle will grant
the hearing, the general impression at the
Treasury Department is that 1t will be un-
availing, es the Secretary Is reported to
have told representatives of the sugar peo-
Pile some time ago that he would stand by
the decision of the controller There Is an
intimation that Secretary Carlisle forced
the issue at this time in order to get the
matter into court before Congress con-
yened as it was believed that the sugar
men hoped to keep 1t out of court until an
effort could be made in Congress again to
pass the appropriation, coupled with pro-
vision making it mandatory on the Secre-
tary to pay it forthwith.

THE PoPE's LETTER
That Published This Morning Was an En-
tire Fake"
DR.. Rocker Says There Was Absolute
ly Not One Word of Truth
I'm the Story.

Monsignor Satoln and the officials of the
papal delegation here were astonished to
see today in a morning paper the alleged
text of letter from Pope Leo, felicitating
the American church and commencing the
success of Monsignor Satolli's mission.
DIR. Rocker, secretary to the delegate
stated to a Star reporter that the publica-
ton was a fake" from beginning to end
There is'' he said, mot one word of truth
in the story The letter is made up with
out any foundation whatever. There is
not a shadow even upon what it could be
based. No such letter has been received
by any one"
In presenting the alleged text of the let
ter the writer has attempted to adopt the
usual dignified and formal phraseology OF
letters coming from the pope. 1t begins
with the usual greeting and apostolic bene-
diction. The pope: Is made to speak as
we" which is his usual custom. 1t closes
with the signature LEO XIII. pontiff
given at Rome in the eighteenth year OF
our pontifcate."
was given yesterday in Associated Press
dispatches from Philadelphia, and which
was published in The Star. The letter con-
demned congresses of religion. such as tina,
held at the worlds fair at Chicago Such
declaration from the pope was one OF
the most important utterances on American
affairs in recent years. 1t was received by
Monsignor Satolli about the time of the
recent assembling here of the Catholic
archbishops, and copy was furnished each
of them. But the manufactured pope's let
ter does not oontain the essential feature OF
the real letter-the condemnation Of con-
crosses of religion-but attaches the pope's
signature to a document which is pro-
nounced fake at the papal delegation
This letter had no resemblance to the
fake letter.

EX-CONSUL WALLER.
French Success in NADIA agascar May
benefit His Financial Interests.

French Success in NADIA Eascar May
Benefit His Financial interests.
Counsellor Kennedy Of the Waller case is
of the opinion that the turn which the
course of military affairs has taken in
Madagascar in favor Of the French will
not unfavorably affect the financial inter-
ests Of the ex-consul In that island He
holds that the ownership of the land con-
ceded to Mr.. Waller by the Hova govern
ment is question entirely separate from
that Of his guilt or Innocence of the
charge of aiding and abetting the Hovas
in their war with the French. He bases
this opinion upon the fact that the grant
was made previous to the French conquest
and says that while France at the time
questioned the right OF the Hoyas to make
the concession, the government of the
United States had not conceded Frances
right to interfere in the management of
the internal affairs of Madagascar
When France assumes an Gndisputed pro-
tectorate in the Island, as 1t Is presumed
she will in view of the recent success of
her arms in that quarter, she will find
that various grants have been made to
citizens of other countries, notably of
that the Waller grant will be put on the
same basis as those. No intimation has so
far been received here as to the light
thrown upon the imprisonment of Waller
by the record of his trial, which is now in
the hands of Ambassador Eustis. 1t is
believed by Waller's friends that even If
1t should he made by this record to appear
that the court in which he was tried had
out foundation, the French government
will be induced to grant the prisoners re-
lease as an act Of International comfy
but the ex-consups friends will demand a
very thorough scrutiny of the papers be-
fore allowing the request to be made on
this ground.
