AN INDIAN REVOLT
The Outcome Of the Segregation Of
Plague Sufferers

BOMBAY, July 29.-The editor of the
newspaper Vaibhan, published at
Poona, has been arrested ard brought
here on the charge of sedition.
Scidar Balwaptrao Natu and Huro-
pant PamchunGiar Natu, who were ar
rested yesterday on charge of disloyal-
ty and escorted outside the limits of the
Poona protectorate, have been deported
under the act empowering the viceroy TO
issue a warrant for the arrest and de-
portation without trial ofpersons known
to be engaged in disloyal practices.
This power has not beer exercised for
many years 1t was last employed dur
ing the viceroyalty of Lord DufferiA,
when Duhleep Singh was arrested at
Alden while en- route to stir up discon-
tent in Punjab in furtherance of plans
formed during sojourn in Russia.
Its present employment has made a
great sensation among Europeans and
natives alike. 1t is believed that the
hostility of the Natu family is due to the
fact that one of the brothers who had
been afflicted with the plague was sen.
to the Poona segregation camp along
with the low castles. The neighbors of
the Natus could rot understand why a
wealthy Scidar should be treated like
common people, and on all sides was
heard the significant remark: you will
see what will happen when Natu comes
out"

THE SOLAR ECLIPSE

WASHINGTON-Th partial eclipse
of the sun was watched today by the
astronomers at the naval observatory,
but there was little scientific interest in

the passage of the planet across the

BENSON SURVEYS
The Ancient Claims Will Be Settle
Sometime

| NEW YORK. July pa special to the
Herald from Washington says: The In
terror Department, under the direction of
the new administration, has undertaken
to dispose of the Benson contracts, which
had their beginning in the seven years
from 1873 to 1885 in California and other
Western States. These disputes consist
ed in false surveys. which cost the United
States more than 81 600.
Commissioner Lamoreaux first prepared
an estimate TO go into one of the appro-
priation bills for $50. 900, to satisfy all of the
remaining claims in these fraudulent sur
veys but Secretary Francis would not ap-
prove the estimate and 1t was not sub
mitted to Congress.
When Binger Hermann succeeded Lam
oreaux as Commissioner of the Land Office,
he discovered that his predecessor had ap-
proved the accounts for the five remaining
Benson surveys and had sent them, in
all amounting to $500 900, of which $50 900 was
for surveys and $4,000 for other claims.
to the Treasury Department. for payment
as soon as an appropriation might be avail
able. This was also done against the pro-
test of the Inspector Commissioner. Com
missioner Hermann caused the agents of
the Interior Department to conduct an
| investigation. Benson, with attorneys,
urged Commissioner Hermann to let Com
missioner Lamoreaux' approval of the
| accounts stand. Benson finally proposed
compromise. This compromise Com
missioner Hermann entered into and by
the terms the surveys were to be made
over again, and when approved by the
agents of the land Office will be paid for.
The United States for the time being,
agreed not to prosecute civil suits to re-
cover money which was paid out of the
Treasury on fraudulent claims.

A TANGLED CASE
Litigation Over the Fort Brown Mill
tary Reservation

NEW YORK July 29.-The disposition to
be made of 500, 0OO which was appropriated
by Congress March 3, 1895, to enable the
Secretary of War to acquire title TO the
real estate on which the military reserVa-
ton known as Fort Brown, Texas, is sit
uated and to satisfy and extinguish all
claims for its use and occupancy by the
government for many years, has led to
litigation in the Supreme Court, instituted
by James Stillman, who is anxious to ac-
count for the money and have determn-
alton made as to who are the rightful
owners of it.
TIE property has been occupied as mil
itary reservation since May. 1876. 1t was
owned by Chas. Stillman and Marie Josefa
Cavazos, the wife of Pedro c. Cavazos.
They have since died. Charles Stillman,
the father of James, tried to establish
title to the property and obtain from the
government compensation for the use and
occupation of the land as fort. 1t is as
certained that Mr.. Cavazos promised to re-
pay one-half of all the moneys that he had
expended for their joint benefit. He died
in 1875. Mrs. Cavazos died three years
later and Thomas Carson was made ad
mnistrator of her estate, James Stillman
acquired by assignment all the claims of
kis father against Mrs. Cavazos in this
matter and on July II, 1886, an accounting
between himself and the administrator of
Mrs. Cavazos revealed that her estate was
indebted to the estate of Charles Stilman
for services which he rendered to the ex-
tent OF s60,977. After the death of his father,
James Stillman prosecuted the work and
declared that his services are reasonably
worth $4,000 and that he was compelled
to pay out upward of $50, 0O0 including S6031
for taxes. The children of Mrs. Cavazos
have put in claim for share of the
money.

MAKES lem LAUGH
Heuderson's Game Leg

DUBUQUE, Ia, July 29.-Congressman
d. B. Henderson, for many years one of
the most conspicuous members of the
House of Representatives from this State,
has suffered untold agonies from his IN
jured limb, which was shot off at the bat
tie of Corinth. At that time his limb was
amputated below the knee and he has ever
since worn an artificial one, but the wound,
for some reason never properly healed
and 1t has bothered him ever since, and
at times he has been laid up for weeks, but
his strong constitution carried him through.
Last winter when he was confined to his
bed for several weeks it was thought he
would have to suffer another operation, but
he recovered sufficiently to resume his
duties at Washington. From his daughter,
who just arrived here, it was learned that
another amputation is necessary. This
will be made at the knee joint. and it is
likely the operation will be performed at
an early day.

10 London to exploit his concession from
the Madagascar government upon de-
cision of the state Department as. to rs
validity. it is learned that the depart
ment has not up to this time undertaken
to pass upon the matter. There has been
some correspondence on the subject, but
in the absence of any evidence that the
French government. which controls
Madagascar, has denied any of Walters
claimed rights to the concession, the
department has not been able to take
up the case. The general principle Of
international law is as stated in the let
ter of the department to Waller, por-
ton only of which was published, but
much depends upon the conditions of
the concession and the execution of it's
provisions.
