land Said to Have Been Erroneousiy
Given the O."
WASHINGTON, July IL. Secretary
Smith has directed the comm issiouer of
the general land office to demand of
the Chicago, burlington e Quincy
railroad company the REIMBURSEMENT
of some $1,000 acres OF lard along the
line of the road in Iowa, which it is
claimed has been enormously patented
to them as the successors of the Bur-
lington & Missouri River railroad COM
pany. The grant was made to the lat
ter company to aid in its construction
and through some ewor in the selec-
tions of the grants this amount of land
was enormously patented to it. The
secretary now seeks to recover the
land for the United States and as a
preliminary directs the secretary to
demand the REIMBURSEMENT. In event
that the company declines to accede to
the demand it is probable that suit
will be begun in the United States
courts to determine whether the GER
LITIGATION was erroneous or not.

had been in the city during the day
and was drinking. and in the evening
fell in with the negro, who had just
been released from jail They went to
the Santa Fe depot late in the evening,
and it is supposed that the negro took
his victim to the west end of the depot,
which is rather dark locality. with
the: intention of robbing him. Some
parties not far away heard blows be-
tween II and 1a o'clock and upon going
to the scene found Peck unconscious
and bleeding and saw the negro run
behind some box cars. The police vera
immediately notified and have been
searching for the would-be murderer
up to late tins evening without any
success. Robbery was doubtless the
intention Of the assailant, but the ap-
proach of other parties frightened him
away before he accomplished his pnr-
pose. Clark is about IS years old, 3
feet 4 inches high and weighs $50
pounds and frequents Carrollton, Mo.

8Anubaauc PrissJ llispinys Great Courage.
DUBUQUE, July 10. The hero of the
hour Ia this city is Rev Father Ban
man, Of Sacred Heart German Catholic
church. The pews We're rented for the
ensuing year and brought $4,000. The
money was paid to Father Banman
and he took IT home, ms he had no
other place to put it. Abont 10 o'clock
he heard n knock at his door, and on
opening was confronted with a masked
man, who, presenting revolver at the
priests head. demanded the money.
Instead of doing SO Father Banman
knocked the revolver aside and showed
the fellow out of the door, and kept
hold OF him till the yard was reached,
when he broke away from the priest
and escaped. Neighbors We're aroused
and helped in the chase, but the fellow
escaped. Great praise is accorded
Father Banman for the great courage
he displayed.
