FORGED EVIDENCE OF TITLE.
An Interesting Case Before the Court O
Prirate Land Claims.

SANTE FEE, N. Mex, June 4.-The
Court of Private Land Claims to-day
ordered the celebrated grant for II, $50 600
acres of land to trial. Attorney Reynolds
opening statement challenged every docu-
ment and record of the plaintiffs as forged,
manufactured and surreptitiously inserted
in the various archives of Spain and Mex
leo. The Government attorneys claim that
in 1886 Reavis and his wife went to Spain,
and Reavis was discovered in the act of
attempting to leave among the files forged
evidence of title. Proceedings were taken
in the Spanish courts, the records found
to be forgeries and Reavis was adjudicated
guilty thereof. His arrest was ordered,
and having made his escape, because of
the very formal and slow methods of pro-
cedure by the Spanish officials, he was in
consequence declared by the court to be a
fugitive from justice. The Government
claims to have conclusive evidence of Mrs.
Reavis' identity as the daughter of John
A. Treadway, her mother being an Indian
sq1aw, called Kate, and that she was born
in Mendocino County, California.

PROPER MAN TO SELECT,
Few Statesmen Have as Fine
a Record in National
Politics.
EAST AND WEST IN ACCORD
And, Best of All, the Republican
Convention Should Be Held
In This City.

NEW YORK, n. Y, June 4.-General ].
S. Clarkson, Republican National COM
mitteeman from Iowa, in an interview on
the political situation has pronounced IN
favor of Senator Allison. He said:
AN intelligent observation OF the polltl.
cal situation convinces many Republicans
that Senator Allison will be nominated at
the next Republican convention. myself
am convinced that he viii be the best can
didate of the Republicans, and, moreover,
that he will surely be elected. l have
nothing to say against the claims of other
Republicans, but in my travels l have
found the very strongest undercurrent
running for Allison. 1 find this senti.
ment just as strong in the East as in the
West.
Senator Allison is sound on all COM
mercial and financial questions. Under
him the tariff would be revised, not on
high protection lines, but on lines that
would carry out the great doctrine of pro.
lection. There would be no upheavaI OF
tariff, but it would be satisfactorily ad-
justed and the mistakes of the present adj
ministration would be remedied. Inter.
national bimetallism would also be estab-
lished under Senator Allison. He would
not appoint any half and half commits.
sion to go abroad on this great
question as did President Harrison
International bimetallism cannot be
accomplished by the appointment Of
any such kind of commission. Senator
Allison would appoint a commission com.
posed entirely of international bimetal
lists, whose hearts and souls would be ii
the cause, and when the foreign nation:
became convinced that such commission
had come to talk to them the mission
would be quickly successful. Senator Ali
sons commission on this subject would
mean business, and there would be no use
less speeches or tiresome and unsuccessful
debates.
Senator Allison has had record o
thirty-two years in Congress. All that
time not a stain, not a SPOT not a rehec
ton of the minutest character has rested
on his long and honorable career. He is &
safe man and, mark my words for it, he
will be the candidate of the convention"

Proposes to Hold the Craftsmanship of
Republican National Committee.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 4.-The ap-
pearance of Senator Carter in the East has
led to some talk, principally in New York,
about making a change in the craftsmanship
of the Republican National Committee Mr..
Carter is an outspoken advocate of free
coinage and declares that his party should,
and he believes will, give to silver very
substantial Endorsement in It's next Ma
tional platform, and this has aroused the
extreme or sound money Republicans in
the Empire State, who are of the opinion
that Mr.. Carter in this is thoroughly I'M
representative of his party and should at
once surrender his craftsmanship. They
would even go to the extent of opposing
him in case of formal refusal on his part
TO step down and out.
Mr.. Carter is not disturbed by this talk.
His position as chairman of the National
Committee holds until after the next Re-
publican National Convention, and he
announces quite firmly though informally
that he will serve his time out. 1t is OBJ
served by some of Carriers friends that he
did not seek the place at the head of the
National Committee, and that strangely
enough it came to him for the very reason
that is being urged for his displacement.
The Western Republicans were trife
discontinued on account of the party S
treatment of silver, and shrewder man.
ayers in the East thought it would be a
good stroke of policy to recognize the
West in organizing for the campaign, and
so the craftsmanship in this way and in
this spirit was voted to Mr.. Carter and
his purpose now is to serve in office for the
full time appointed

to be no truth in the story sent out from
Leavenworth to the effect that trouble Is

Morrill, formally removed Warden Chase

Leavenworth, but to his home in Chanute.
Neither has Attorney General Dawes gone

Capital from Leavenworth says that the
general sentiment is that when demand
is made upon Chase for possession he will
give up without precipitating trouble.
