Washington. March 10. - Attorney
General Wickersham is determined to
compel the Oregon and California rail
road, one of the Hartman lines, to
forfeit to the government 3,13T,000
acres of public lapds for violation of
the terms of the grant.
The railroad acquired the lands by
grant under two acts of congress with
the condition that il was to sell to
actual settlers only at stipulated
price and in lots not exceeding 100
acres TO single purchaser. The at
torney general finds that The condi-
ttons of the grant have been violated.
Suits have been instituted against the
Oregon and California and its grantees
To forfeit the lands to the government
for violation of the conditions.
1t appears from report made to
the senate by the attorney general In
response to Senator Tillman's resolu-
ton that 10000 acres have been sold
to 5,306 purchasers in violation of the
terms of the grant and that of this
quantity 3S3, ,0OO acres were sold in lots
exceeding 1000 acres each to pur.
chaserS.
The attorney general says that ev-
erything possible will be done to bring

by Moving Resolutions.

Rosebery Initiates Momentous Debate
by Moving Resolutions.
London, March -. - The house of
lords was crowded when Lord Rose
berry arose to initiate the momentous
debate on the reform Of the house of
lords. The former prime minister
moved the following resolutions:
That a strong and efficient second
chamber is not merely an integral part
Of the British constitution but Is neces-
sary' TO the well being Of the state and
the balance of parliament.
That a second chamber can hest be OBJ
tained by reforming and reconstituting
the house of lords.
That a necessary preliminary to such
reform and Teconstitution is the accept
ance of the principle that possession OF
a peerage shall no longer in itself give
the right to sit and vote in the house OF
lords.
The scene was a brilliant one as
Lord Rosebery arose to speak TO his
resolutions. The Prince of Wales sat
on the cross benches, peeresses iilled
the galleries, and privy councillors
thronged the steps Of the throne.
Lord Rosebery received faint cheers
as he moved that the house go into
committee to consider his resolutions
as to the best means of reforming the
lords so as to constitute a strong ana
efficient second chamber The debate
on these resolutions is expected to last
until Thursday.
