THE LAND COURT.
The Jose Garcin Grant-A Portion OF
the City of Santa Fe Wanted by the
Teiay n Hill Grant Claimants.

The U. s. court of private land claims
met this morning at 10 a. M, all the
justices and court officers present.
The evidence in the case No. 80, the
Jose Garcia land grant in Bernalillo coun-
ty, for a stretch of lands about IL miles
square, claimed by Mariana s. Otero of
Albuquerque, was concluded yesterday
afternoon, six witnesses having been ex-
amined for the grant claimants and four
for the United States. Arguments were
submitted to the court this forenoon, but
not fully concluded. Further arguments
are being made this afternoon.
Mr.. Purdy filed a motion asking that
the decree granted sometime since in the
Telays Hill land grant, confirmed to the
heirs and assignees of Louis Gold, and
taking considerable portion of the east
part of the city, be amended, so that the
portion of land heretofore exempt from
the Telaya Hill grant decree on account
of being included in the grant to the city
of Santa Fe, the latter having been de-
clared invalid and dismissed, be included
in the decree of the Telaya Hill tract.
The court took the matter under advise
ment, not being satisfied of its power to
grant the motion at this time, no appeal
from the action of the court in issuing
the original decree having been taken by
claimants,

ords concerning the birth of the Spanish
general, and when he returns the case
the children will be mplete.-Denver
News.
This is very romantic and very nice
story, and all that, but unfortunately, it
happens to be not based on facts. There
is no such case pending in the court of
appeals. The only Denver person inter
ested in the Ortiz mine land grant in
south Santa Fe county, is the heir of
the late Jerome B. Chaffee, who was dele.
gate and U. S. senator from Colorado,
aud the stock of this heir in the New
MEXICO Mining company, the owners of
the grant 10 question, is held by ID. j.
Moffatt OF Denver, as trustee. The only
daughter of Chaffee married Gen. Grants
second son, and hence the connection of
Gen. Grants name with the property.
The second son Of Gen. Grant is U. S.
Grant, and be and his wife are residents
of Los Angeles, Cal.
There is no immense mine, known az
the old copper mine," on the Ortiz Mine
grant.
The only suits pending in this matter
are eJectment suits against lot of squat
tiers on the lands, contained within the
boundaries of the Ortiz mine land grant,
which WAS confirmed by congress and
patented many years ago. These suits
are pending in the First judicial district
court In this CITY and county.
There is also case pending in the
court of private land claims, under which
part of this land is claimed under grant,
known as the Real de Dolores grant, case
No. Ill, for four square leagues. This case
comes up before the court on Monday
next. How much there is to this claim,
is at this time very problematical.

GOV. PRINCE INTERVIEW ED.
He Says That the Appointment Of
Major LIeweiiyn as Governor of
New Mexico Had Been Looked
for Daily, for n Week Before
He Left Washington.

Hon. L. Bradford Prince arrived home
yesterday, having stopped on the way
from Washington at Kansas City, Denver
and Espanola. He said that he had no
political news later than that which is
current here. For week before he left
Washington, the appointment of Maj or
Llewelyn as governor had been looked
for daily, and there appears to be no rea
son for delay. General Hobart was in
troduced to the president on Thursday,
May s, and it was afterward remarked
that he was thinking of the governorship,
but the intention of the president to ap-
point Major Llewellyn was considered to
be absolute. As to other offices, it is
certain that no changes will take place
till the incuT bents have served out their
full terms, so there is no hurry about
most of them, and there is no use in ap-
plying in advance.
Mr.. Wallace was still there and so were
M. A. Otero, W. M. Berger, Major Lew
ellyn and a few other New Mexicans. Mr..
Berger seemed to stand very high with
the attorney. general and commissioner of
the land office. Colonel Hudson had
made parting call on the president ac-
companied by Senator Elkins and left
town.
There has been great deal of rain in
the east and Governor Prince expressed
his great pleasure at being back again in
New Mexican climate. He found much
interest at Espanola in the sugar beet
culture, and believes that the time Is not
distant when the whole valley, as high up
as La Joya, will be devoted largely to
that culture. He is as enthusiastic as
ever over the summer climate of Santa
Fe and says he is sure a score of hotels
could be constantly filled here, if we had
the necessary buildings, with pleasant sur
roundings and modern management that
would attract persons from the hot sec
tions of the country. The rebuilding of
the capitol will give an impetus to all
enterprises in this section, and the future
is anything but discouraging if we use
the opportunities presented to us.
