Washington. Feb. 2s-(Special)-
reported from the Public Lands Com.
mittee, Representative Wiley's bill for
the relief of homestead settlers IN Ala
bama. II provides for an investigation
of the former south boundary of the
State of Alabama.
After the running Of the first line.
the government patented certain lands
north of that line and designated them
at Alabama lands. Some years later
the other line was run. and 1t was To-
acted north of the original line, thus
placing certain lands. which had here
tofore been designated as Alabama
lands. in Florida.
The government proceeded to patent
the same and to designate them as
Florida lands. In this way the same
land was patented twice. once as Ala
bama land and once as Florid land.
This has brought about a consider
able amount of confusion. very great
Inconvenience. and probably litigation
on the part Of the holders OF the pat
ents.
The committee finds that when the
second survey was run the land on the
Florida side was plated. while that on
the Alabama side was not plated. but
was left without anything being done
which would Identify it and enable the
holders to locate their land. The COM
mittee is of opinion that 1t might not
be absolutely necessary for re-sur-
vey of the lines already run, and that
an examination by an examiner OF sur
veys and a report by him Will give
such information as will enable the
holders of patents to settle their diff
ferences.
The committee also doubted the pro-
priety of a survey by the government
of a boundary line between these two
States. without having before it fur

the old Andersonville prison. the Gov

ly well established park, which 1t is
hoped will remain forever a memorial
of experiences in the most notable
Southern prison of the civil war.
The property consists of eighty-sev-
en- acres purchased from the original
owner by the Grand Army of Georgia.
Not being prepared to improve the
park as was considered desirable, the
Grand Army turned it over to the wo-
mans relief corps, which Is an auxil-
larry of the National Grand Army. This
corps has improved the ground by
building a residence upon it, construct
ing fences. etc.
The States Of Massachusetts, Ohio
Michigan, Rhode Island and Wisconsin
have also erected monuments dedicated
TO the memory OF the soldiers from
those States who died in prison and
were buried in the prison cemetery.
The movement to have the Government
accept the property and make a park
Of IL is one in which the entire Grand
ARMY has taken an interest.
