LAND OFFICE CHANGES.
Larger PosUers for Chiefs of Diuis-
Districts RearTanged.

Washington. March SO.-In accordance with the
directions Of the President and the Secretary Of the
Interior, the Commissioner OF the General Land
Office has taken up the work Of recognizing the
field and office force under his control To obtain
greater efficiency in the field work OF the special
agents the Commissioner has found It advisable to
redistrict the public land territory, changing the
lines so that for the most part the field divisions
have been enlarged. thus giving greater territory
the several chiefs
The chiefs OF divisions VIII have more authority
and greater supervisory powers than heretofore
The special agents will be detailed to the several
chiefs from time TO time and placed directly under
their Jurisdiction each chief being held responsible
for all work in his division. The chief will also be
required TO call for reports respecting the conduct
of local land Offices and the offices Of the sur
veyors general in their respective divisions.
The method thus adopted. It is hoped. will make
the field force more compact. and will enable the
agents to appreciate that they have as their chief
one directly in authority TO whom they can appeal
for instruction, support and advice IL Is believed
that the method will place the chief of the field
division in such position that he organize and
direct from his local headquarters the work Of in
vestigation throughout his entire division 1t has
also been the purpose Of this Encouragement to
make IL possible 90 increase the number OF agents
employed in the several districts in which the field
work is OF the most important character, and in
which close investigation is necessary TO prevent
fraud and illegal entries and dispose OF suspended
cases as rapidly possible. The commissioner
hopes so 70 detail ana concentrate tne IOEce As 10

William Archer, the dramatic critic Of Thu
London Tribune arrived here yesterday on tho
Cunard liner Lucania TO attend the meetings Of tbs
American Simplifed Spelling Board. which viii BE-
held at the WaldOrf-AstOria on April and 5.
Mr. Archer praised American playwrights, say
ing that within the last ten years they had adj
vanced much further than the Dlaywrtghts Of
Great Britain. He was particularly interested Ia
the plays Of Clyde Fitch. he said. and suggested
Mr.. Fitch an example Of the great strides made
by American dramatists.
while the English playwrights have gone ahead
somewhat said Mr.. Archer, they have not kept
pace with the American dramatists. The improve
ment IN Fitch's later plays is remarkable. am
anxious to see performance OF The lsrear
Divide. by William Vaughn Moody, and am
interested also in the plays Of Langdon Mitchell;
The American playwright is certainly forging vel
to the front. There has been no real development
IN the English drama in decade
Mr.. Archer said he would return TO London IA
May, as he was anxious to see some OF the pro-
auctions Of Sothern and Marl9Ye, pr, ARCHER was
dramatic critic OF The PaH Mall GOzette'' IN 1889.
when that magazine was owned BY William Wall
dOrf Aston.
He is enthusiastic over slmplihed spelling. He
said that there was no organization IN England for
its promotion. although a number Of English pro-
fessoFs IN an unofficial way had advocated spelling
reform.
