new general fer the interior depar :
ment, Mr.. Van DeVenter, today heard
arguments in the land case of the
South Dakota mining company vs..
McDonald involving lands in Custer
county South Dakota. Although on
its face this contest is simply between
a mineral claimant and a settler 1t
really involves the possession OF the
caves in that county, which are said
to rival the Mammoth cave Of Ken
lucky. The land Office decided against
both parties to the contest-agains'
the mining company on the grounc
that the land is more valuable fol
agriculture than for the mineral i
contains and against Mcdonald on some
technically invalidating his claim as
homesteader. The decision of the de
partment will not be rendered for som,
