that part OF the country and who made
the survey and map OF the San Rafael
del vale land grant, which was used
upon the trial. Douglass Snyder and
Max Marks. who assisted In making
that survey. were also examined. These
witnesses were subjected to a rigorons
cross-examination by the attorney of
the government, and their testimony
had peen minuteIy criticised In his
brief.
But we are not able to perceive that
the statements OF these witnesses have
been materially shaken. Some dis
crepancies indeed appear, but they are
pot important. and are naturally to be
expected from the nature of the case
Neither the original nor the subsa-
qnent surveys were made with the care
and precision that characterize surveys
made In the long settled parts of the
county. But Ii is evident, and this is
the important part, that the latter sur
yeys were made to verify and renew
the original survey. and not with a
purpose to locate floating grant of
boundaries and. hTe
case failed because mere
had been no actual location of the
grant prior to the Gadsden treaty. and
because there was no satisfactory evil
dence that the act of juridieal posses
sion had ever taken place.
From our examination OF the evil
ience we concur In the view OF the
Court of Private Land Claims, that
definite location and possession OF the
grant In question. prior to the date OF
The Gadsden treaty, are shown with
certainty. and according
y to the decree of that court, confirm

VIII Not Be a Kansas Man
When Evans R6tlreS From
the Bureau.
ROOSEVELT ThLkS
Sdus tie Evans POLICY Must be Up
held and the Treasury ProteCt-
ed Against Pension Raids.

! WASHINGTON, March Silt has
been practically decided that the sue
cessor of II. Clay Evans as Commits
sioner of Pensions will not come from
Kansas. President Roosevelt is re-
ported to have furnished a member
of the Kansas delegation in Wash
ington with some very cogent argu-
ments against the selection of a Kan
sas man to succeed Mr.. Evans when
he retires from Office
The President is quoted as having
said that he did not believe 1t possible
that any man from Kansas could fill
the position aeceptabiy He admitted
the high character of Richard Blue
an S. R. Peters, former Congressman
from Kansas. who had been indorsed
for the position. but stated that the
selection of Kansas man would lead
all the old soldiers In the country
to look for a reyersion Of the pres
ent policy Of the pension bureau and
the opening up of all of the cases that
have been rejected usfder the admin
istratiorf of Mr. Evans. The result
of such a feeling over the country
would swamp the department with q
food of business that has already
been disposed of. and would subject
the Kansas commissioner to more Sc
we're criticism than has been heaped
upon Commissioner Evans It would
he construed as signal to raid the
treasury and would naturally be ac-
cepted throug out the country as an
~ tst administration or
thA charges tnat have been made
against Mir. Evans %
IL .S also stated that the President
made II plain that he would nake no
appointment that would res III In an
attempt to reverse the present pol
.fy ol tae pension department. he
believes In liberal construction OF
the pension laws. but win not encour-
age the sentiment In favor of indis-
criminate granting of pensions, with
out reference to compliance with the
plain provisions of existing pension
laws.
The President is now said to pc
looking to the East for successor 10
Mr.. Evans. and will probably seiect
some New York man. He wants
man with good military record ana
with acknowledged business ability.
