THE SCHEME A DISMAL FAILURE

The Rosy Promises Held ont by the

President Deserted Them.
New York, June 22.-Thirteen col
ored persons who formed part OF the
200 sent TO Liberia by the international
Emigration society in March. 1895. ar
rived i'm this port yesterday aboard the
steamship Liberia. They say that the
scheme has been a total failure: that
many of their number died of starva-
ton and fevers: that the society did
not fulfill the contract and that many
members of the expedition are strand
ed in England, unable to get back to
their homes
The plan Of the African colonization
scheme originated early lq 1894, in the
mind of Bishop Turner, Who was trav-
cling in the south. 1t was formulated
and carried into effect by Jeremie Mil
lam white man of Birmingham. Ala.
who founded what was known as the
International Emigration society. 1t

1t was estimated at that time that
there were 1900 colored people who
were ready to join the colony They
expected to build a town which would
soon be in a flourishing condition.
Each colonist was to pay SAL for his
transportation, and was expected to
have 5000 in gold with him TO lay the
foundation of his fortune in the new
land. The first large party of colon
lists, numbering 200, left Savannah.

According to the stories told by
those who returned yesterday, when
they landed in Liberia Flammer de-
serted them, taking whatever was pro-
vided for them except the land, which
they found 35 miles from any town,
and which was incapable of growing
anything but coffee. Even to grow
this successfully would take four to six
years.
Charles Peterson, of Madison, Ark,
with his wife and family, is among
those who returned yesterday. He says
that he lost all he had in going over,
and was nearly dead of starvation be-
fore he could raise enough money to

4 Carson paper says that what is
known rs the MuZZer case WAS dis
posed Of i'll the U. S. circuit court by
Judge Hawley yesterday. The case
is OF considerable Importance as it
entails and important decision to
many Washoe valley settlers.
The decision emb dies five dis.
tinct cases and with 10 defendants
and the Sierra Nevada Wood and
Lumber Company named i'll the com.
plant. The history OF the case is rs
follows:
In 1851 when the Sioux reservation
was sold according to an act Of Con-
gress and the Indians reimbursed IN
script. Of which one Charles MuzZer
was entitled to certificate for 4S0
acres. MuZZer before receiving the
certificate disappeared. and years
later an Indian purporting to be that
party appeared before Commits
sioner and demanded his claim.
Upon furnishing what WAS believed
TO be adequate Identification his de-
mands were complied with and he
took up land il Washoe county,
Nevada, which lie aftcrward sold for
| a large consideration to Immigrants.
\ short time ago the genuine Chas.
MuZzer applied to Washington for
his rights and proved the fraudulent
transaction OF past years. Thr gov.
ernment Immediately began suit
against the Washoc settlers TO com
! pei them to vacatc the land. OF which
they were innocent purchasers and
which they had improved TO the ex-
tent OF thousands OF dollars.

the purchasers. General Clark ap.

STATE LAND OFFICE,

SIK:-It is the opinion Of the
present Attorney General (Which
officer is my legal adviser) that the
land embraced in each aud every
contract for State land on which
either the principal or interest is not
paid when due Immediately and un-
conditiopally" rcverts to the State,
under the terms Of the contract and
i'll accordance with the provisions Of
Section 8 OF the General Land Law.
He is OF the opinion that each and
every contract ON which the annual
interest is not paid when due be
comes null and void by operation Of
law, independent Of any action that
may be taken or attempted by the
State Land Register; that receiving
payment does not renew the contract,
and that remittIng overdue interest
is a useless expense on the part Of the
contractor. | shall therefore refuse
to certify any overdue interest pay
ment until my duty to do so shall
have been clearly defined by Il com

ditionully reverts To the State and
is thereafter subject to sale i'll the

Tho effect OF this ruling il simply
this: IL A hus contract for the pui .
