A MILLION FROM MEXICO.
Catholic PreIntes Urge United states
to Collect Big Claim.

TO obtain S1,O00.OOO is the object Of
a visit To President Roosevelt made
by Archbishop Riordan of California
and Archbishop Ireland of Minnesota,
says the Washington correspondent OF
the New York Herald. This sum II
q claim OF the Catholic church against
Mexico. and It Is understood that the
prelates are seeking to induce the
United States TO renew its efforts TO
persuade Mexico 20 pay the money.
Before the acquisition OF upper Cali
forna by the United states the Catho-
lie churches OF upper and lower Cali
foruia had OH deposit with the Mcxi-
can government money and property
aggregatiug a very large total, upon
which the Mexican government was
obliged to pay the churches interest.
In the case Of the churches of upper
California this interest amounted TO
almost $4,000 a year. Interest pay
mcnts ceased after the Mexican war.
This claim Of the church for interest
unpaid came before the Mexican
claims commission after lapse of
twenty years and was allowed. The
award was paid by the Mexican gov
ernment, but since then there have
been no further payments of interest,
and the purpose Is now to press for
settlement OF this account Negotia.
tions have been carried on between
Washington and Mexico for some
years, but there have been no ex-
changes of recent date
The Mexican government has not
shown any disposition to avoid a set
tlement. but bases its failure to pay
Interest upon the broad claim that tho
award by the Mexican claims commits
sion TO the cl. lmants Of sum aggre-
eating nearly $l,o00,000 served legally
as settlement In full.

WILL BUILD A STAND PIPE.
Rock Island Unloading Material for the
Foundation Of the Strueture-WOrk
VIII Be Commenced at Once.

For some time it has been rumored
that the Rock Island would build a
stand pipe at GOOdIand. The report
was confirmed yesterday when several
cars Of gravel and a car of cement ar
rived for the foundation and is now
being unIoaded. A gang of worlmen
have also arrived to commence on the
job.
The location Of the stand pipe will
be just west of the wells by the mach
inc shop. The wooden tanks when the
water is lowered in them dry out at the
top and leak badly when again filed,
causing a large waste Of water. The
stand pipe VIII be made Of iron plates
and this wastage viii consequently be
avoided, besides the enlarging Of water
capacity.

CROW INDIAN LANDS NEXT.
More Than a Million Acres In Montana
VIII Probably Be Opened to
Settlement

The United States government still
has thousands upon thousands Of acres
Of land for homeseekers and closely
following upon the heels of the open
ing of the rich Indian lands Of the
Kiowas, comes the news that it is more
than likely that the next lands to be
opened for settlers will be part Of
the reservation Of the Crow Indians in
Montana, land which J. E. Edwards,
the government agent of the Crow re-
servation, says embraces over million
acres Of much fiuer land than anything
yet thrown open by the government.
During the last session OF congress an
act opening ], 10000 acres held by the
Crows passed the senate, but was not
reached By the house. It will come up
during the next session Of the nation
al lawmakers, however, and Edwards
expresses the opinion that it will pass.
There are now 1000 Crows on the re-
ssrvation, which contains over 100000
acres Of land, the tract being much
larger than the Indians can use, so
thousands of acres of it are going to
waste The bill opening a part of the
reservation for settlement provides for
the purchase Of the !, 15O, 200 acres from
the Indians at 81 per acre, thus en-
riching their tribe to the extent of
sL.I5OOOO, and at the same time leaving
100 for every man, woman and child
in the tribe The bill provides how
the fortune of over a million is to be
spent, and $4,000 is to be set aside
for the purchase of twO-year-Old heifers
to be parceIed out among the Indians.
The bill provides for schools and hos
pitfalls, for the fencing of the reserva-
ton, for the completion of the irriga-
ton system, and for the deposit of the
remainder in the United States treas
ury so that each Indian will draw 81
per month. The Indians have agreed
to the plan and, in fact, approve Of it,
so that it is not likely to be more than
another year or two before there viii
be another rush Of homeseekers. In
the meantime Kansas offers more and
better homes than any reservation or
state in the world
