ORDER TOO SWEEPING.
Most of the Western Lands Will Be
Restored to Entry.
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington. Dec. Representative
Mondell of Wyoming has had a confer
ence with President Roosevelt and For
ester Pinchot in reference to the whole
sale withdrawal from entry and settle
ment of lands in the western states SUD-
posed to be valuable for coal mining pur-
poses.
The total area of lands so withdrawn
amounts to 64.l00,000 acres. When the
question was taken up by Mondell with
the president, the latter was surprised
10 learn that the order of withdrawal
Included all forms of land entry-home-
stead. timber and stone and desert entry
and not coal entry alone as he had sup
posed The president suggested that
MondeII confer with Forester Pinchot
who is a member of the public land com
mission charged with reporting upon pub
lie land conditions and recommending leg
islation for the correction of undesir-
a bile land laws. Pinchot is in accord with
Mr.. Mondell in the opinion that the order
OF withdrawal is too sweeping and will
recommend to the president some modi-
fication. This will probably result in the
of lands to entry under nil
forms of selection, excepting under coal
land entry.
