LANE is ovERRULED
Justice Robb Holds Secretary Cannot
Reopen Indian Land Case.

WASHINGTON, April 5.-The District
Court OF Appeals, In an opinion by JUS
tice Robb to-day. reversed q decision OF
the District Supreme Court, and held
that Secretary OF the Interior Lane ex-
ceeded his powors In attempting to
readjudicnte, after n former Secretary
OF the Interior had decided the matter

legal heirs OF Ny Soul Ticbault. Win
nebago Indian, who died in February,
1906. The appellate court directs that
Secretary Lane recognize and enforce
the former decision Of the department
and award patents OF land to Julia L.
ed children OF the dead Indian, who
died without Issue.
After the previous decision nieces
and nephews asked for reconsidera-
tlon, and Secretary Lane reopened the
matter. The adopted children began
mandamus proceedings. but lost In the
trial court. In reversing that decision
Justice Robb says: Apart from the
question OF the concluslveness of tho
decree OF adoption, we think the Sec
rotary, under the facts stated. was
without Jurisdiction to reopen the de-
cislon Of January II, 1913. There Is no
avermcnt or prctense that such de-
cision was procured by fraud. The at
tack is upon decree of adoption reg
ularly entered by a court OF competent
jurisdiction in Nebraska The statute
under which the secretary Is acting in
terms declares that the decision of the
department identifying the heirs of a
deceased allottee shall be final and con-
elusive"
