WOOD CASE BEFORE
 U. S. COMMISSIONER

A few days ago the case of Buckley Vs. Rato was tried in the commission CTS court at Iditarod.
 The plaintiff claimed that he had cut about 54 cords of birch and spruce wood on the right limit of Otter creek, about mile from Flat, before the first day of June, and that the defendant, in the early part of November, had ap- propriated and taken possession of the wood. The defendant claimed that he was the owner of the wood through a purchase of the same from Sheedy and Dempsey.
 An interesting question was raised by the defendants attorney when he claimed that the plaintiff, having had no permit to cut wood upon the public domain of the United States, had nc right or title to any wood he might have cut, and could therefore maintain no action against any person who might have taken or destroyed the wood, and that the government still is the owner Of the wood and has the present right to take it from anybody in whose possession it may be found.
 After hearing all the testimony Judge Stanton took the case under ad- visement, and it is likely that the matter will finally be disposed of by the district court.
 l.. Coke Hill appeared for the plaint- if and Henry Roden represented the defendant.
