I'm November. 1902 there was such u
suspension of final action upon entries
made under the timber and stone act in
Washington, Oregon and California This
suspension was made upon evidence OF
CuiluSive entries in those States, whereby
individuals and corporations were OBJ
timing title to lead areas or valuable
timber lands. whereas the law provides
that the entry shall be made for the ex-
elusive use and benefit of the entry man
That this action did not hinder or In
tCrfere with entries under this act is
shown by the fact that while there were
2lS7 timber and stone entries made in
the States named during the fiscal year
ended June 50. 1902. there were S145 such
entries made in those States during the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1893, and OF this
latter number 3.5i4 entries we're amde
after January !. 1903. while the order OF
suspension was in force. while but 2IS7
such entries were made in the entire
fiscal year 1872
As fast as the entries in these States
can be examined all Of those which have
been properly made are passed to patent.
while the suspension continues as to the
others pending a hearing in the local
Land Office. No cancellation Is made on
report OF a special agent unless oppor-
tunity for "a hearing has been afforded the
entry man.
