At the close of the last ficsal year the
area of grant remaining in the hands
of the system was appropriated at Is, =
6l6.9 acres. 1t is stated that the
figures will be verified 10y the invetsi-

view of ascertaining the eaxct amount
of land received under grants and the

is yet to come TO the Northern Pacific

1t is stated that the withdrawal of
the grant is temporary and that as

will be resumed. In the meantime the
ordinary business of the department
will continue pending the issuance of

SUBMARINE BOATS.
Belief Expressed That Japanese Are

Using Them.
New York. April l6-EXpressions
from ST. Petersburg Of belief that
the japanese are using submarine boats
in their Port Arthur attacks are given
color 10y statement credited TO re-
tired naval officer in this city. He de-
clares it to be the only way in whic h
one can account for the succession of
disasters met by the Russian ships.
1T is Incredible, he said. that
ships which undoubtedly have charts
of the mines aboard should be blown
up by them. One of the first things
Admiral Makarof did when he reached
Port Arthur was TO re.survey the har-
Dor and locate the mines.
what is the sense of these constant
bonn bardments if they are not .feints
made in order to entice the Russian
ships ont: The theories that the Pc
tropavlovsk struck her own mines or
ing the night are untenable, and we
know that the japanese have subma-
rines.
A United States naval officer land
ed at the wrong dock, apparently an
unused wharf. i'll a japanese town be-
fore the war. and saw submarine
surrounded on three sides by high
fences SO that it was visible only from
the water side Before he had an op-
portunity TO examine it the japanese
soldiers on guard drove him away with
fierce threats. They seemed highly in
dignant that he should have caught
sight of the boat at all.
