IRISH COLONY LOSES
ARCHBISHOP IRELAND'S APPEAL,
IN GRACEVILLE CASE OVER
TURNED BY MR. BLISS
LARGE TRACT IS INVOLVED
1t Deprives Him of 5000 Acres That
He Had Purchased--It Has n Sec
ondary Effect, However, which
ttcalIy as Much More From the
Government. rae

Word was received yesterday from
Washington that the secretary of the
interior had confirmed the decision of
the general land Office in the case of
Archbishop Ireland, involving a title to
SO, 178 acres of land, which he purchas-
ed from the st. Paul, Minnesota &
Manitoba Railway company before that
company was merged into the Great
Northern. The decision deprives the
archbishop of about 5000 acres, which
he purchased and which the land offices
OF this state and, the interior depart
ment say did not belong to the rail-
road.
Archbishop Ireland wanted the land
for a colony to be known as GracevllIe,
which he wished to establish in Big
Stone and Traverse counties. He con-
tracted in 1880 with the railroad COM
pany to buy $4,000 acres of land grant
ed to the road by the government, and
the contract was renewed in 1888
In 1889 the railroad company receiv-
ed patent from the government for
70, 900 acres, of which the archbishop
had bought about 1900 acres at 81 per
acre, and had sold it to settlers for the
same price. The remaining SO 900 acres
for which the archbishop had applied
was lost to the railroad, in the mean
time, through a technicality, and the
grant had been Cancelled. Then Arch
bishop Ireland, to protect himself and
his settlers, applied directly to the gov
eminent. under law, for the land
which was lost by the railroad The
matter was heard by the government
land agents in Traverse and Big Stone
counties, and he was allowed $4,000
acres, or about what was covered by
his second contract with the railroad.
The decision deprived him of 5000
acres and he carried the matter to
Washington. The present decision by
the secretary of the Interior confirms
the former decisions, so that the arch
bishop will get almost all he applied
for. AS he is now on his way to Rome,
1t is not likely he will take active steps
to carry out his colonization scheme
until he rnt1Ir-nS -
