Involve Many Millions.

The suits involve more than $1,000 01a
and also more than Sos. ZSS acres of land
All of the land is located in Oregon.
In its original suit, the government al
legged the fact that the railroad violated
the terms of the grant by refusing to
sell the lands contained therein for g 50
an acre. and seeks either to force the
railroad to sell the land TO settlers &C
cording TO the terms of the grant, or to
have the entire grant annulled and the
land restored to the public domain.
1t is alleged in the complaints in the
suits filed yesterday that all of the lands
sold to the defendants named in the suits
were sold in violation of the terms of the
land grant, and for this reason the gov
eminent hopes to make null and void the
deeds and contracts made by the Oregon
& California company TO the purchasers.
While many of the defendants are resi-
dents of Oregon. the majority of them or
their heirs are scattered from California

GREAT WAR
MACHINE

Chicago, July 31.-A special cable
from London says it has been learned
from an excellent source that the
reason the United States government
is SO little concerned over the All
vances in aerial navigation by foreign
military powers is because an Aneri-
can army officer at Fort Omaha has
invented an electrical war engine
which Is likely to paralyze all other
death dealing machines. This machine
is said to project through the air a
column of electrical energy of any
desired strength. which would queer
every mechanism of a warship or air
ship, stopping the engines. annulling
the dynamos, making the guns un-
workable. staying hundreds by the
shock alone and might even explode
the magazines. The range of the
machine is said to be many hundreds
of yards. The invention, which Is
closely guarded. is to be the sole
property of the American govern
ment

BEAT
TARIFF BILL

Washington. July 31.-There were
intimations of opposition to the adop-
ton of the conference report on the
tariff bill in both the senate and the
house today. Early in the day it was
said that % Republican votes would
be cast against the bill in the house.
but later the Republican leaders ex-
pressed their confidence that the re-
port would be adopted by a margin of
ten votes. Most of the opposition is
from those opposed to free hides al
though other provisions also aroused
resented
The most intense resentment in the
senate came from Southern Democrats
who denounced the placing binding
twine on the free list and making cot
ton bagging dutiable as favoritism.
However the Democratic senators de-
cided not to filibuster against the bill
as a party. They also found much
fault with the increased tax on to-
bacco.
The votes of fourteen Republican
senators will ibe necessary to reject
the report an dthe leaders say these
cannot be secured by the insurgents.
After over an hour had spent in
reading a portion of the tariff bill In
the house. the reading was dispensed
with and Dalzell. of Pennsylvania.
presented a resolution providing that
no provision in the bill should be sub
ject to point or order and the debate
be not continued until later than
O'Clock tonight when the report should
be voted on. Dalzell urged the adopt
ion of the report. saying that no re-
port could satisfy every one.
Minority leader. Clark. attacked
the leather schedule but said he
would vote for the rule because 1t
stood for a reduction In the tariff
rates. He attacked the sincerity of the
President, saying he could have used
his influence in the preparation Of the
bill to great advantage. The people
have been crying for reductions, bus
what they get Is White House bulle'
tins"
