Stcretary ot the InterIor Smith returns to
the city he will most IUely flnrl a very dell-
, ) calc case , Involving U line legal punt ! aI\ItIt-
log his decisIon , The telegram at Agent J. A.
Smith or the Yankton Indian reserV3.tloD reo
1''Irting that : the state of South Dakota Is I
maldng an attempt to file ( on 50,000 ncres of

j- the Indian ofike and referred to the general
sand offiet' No t'Cwlon ha ! ! been ! reached . !
and ! the matter awaits the attrntlon or the
secretary or the Intt'rlor.
' . Il Ic I now a question whether thIs compllc3'
- tlon will delay < the Issuanl'e ot the Ilrl'SlllenL's
proclamation opeiling ) the sUrJllu3 lalHls to tet-
tlel1lt'nt In accordance with the law. The
l'rO\'tslon by which the state ot South Dlkolll
t Js authorized : < l to take these 1:1I1ls : , Is c'mtalnell '
j In the Inrllan npproprlntlon ) act or the last
,
' congre : s , which says that " .uiy state or terrl.
tory enlttlell to indemnity school lands or entitled .
titled to select ! t lands \ ( for tdlll'ational pllrposes

\ _ ) ' wit hilI ! the houllllaries ot ! any Irllllau resenvaN
tion In such state or territory ' from the sur-
' ' plus lamll ! thereof purchaed by the United !
' State , after allotments have been made to the
Indluns of such r'servatlon and prior to the
opening , ot such reservation to bctllement. "
The omclals of the Indian otnce say that the I
law on thlll polnL III very clear , 111111 that the
state has the legal right to select thl'Se 50,000
acres of land beer the reservation Is opnet1 I
for 8t'ltlement. They say that the > state probe
S bly has this amount ot latllls due It by ren
$ : SOli of former openings years ago , and that It
Is now IIUemltlng to file on the lands In ac-
corrlanec with the law of the last cangress.
% INDIANS I XIl1B1T PI-CULIAIt : INTI InST. :
4 ( The ol1lclals. how'v'r cannot assign an ) '
reason why the Indians themselves shollid be
' Interested In what Is to h come of the land ,
I since It his been bought from them and they
bnve hren laid for It. It Is now a maW be
' .c t\l eon the United States government and the i
I Btatl' of South 1)akota. I > One reason ndvanced I
for the oPllosltlon of the Yanlttons Is that the
y Indians claim there was no such provisIon In
the ngreement entered . ! Into betw'cn them am . 1
the rellresentatl\'Cs of the government , and I
- that they understood that the lands , when
_ t xe bought hy the > government , were to be all I
I opened for settlement. It Is not Iwown m
. whether the Ilreshlent will 1sui' I the proclama-
t lion at onct' lie / wl1prolHbty \ , In view ot the
I uncertainty , withhold the issuance I until otter
. r the Inattfr has lIeen settled In a proper man
r Iler In favor or one of the sIdes Involved. The
3 ubbtnCt' of Secretary Smith however will not
, ' . . delay the Issuance , as It was stated at the
\ : white house today thai the lridermt } would
sIgn the Jlroclamation and return Il to the
f - " Interior llelJrtrnent ( , regardless of the ab3ence
, ' : \ or the secretary.

the Interior , an uncertainty exists to a lang e '

Berln treaty to adjust and settle all clnllns
hy nlens to hands In Samoa. The nnnual
lNlng or time' committee was heM January
G i ; , 189 , at . 'mpla. The report Includes all the
tit le l'Apers to Samoan lands and are of cou-
rlderahle value. An exhibit attached to time
re port "hows that the total numlr or clAIms
Oell before ( lie commission was 3i)42. ) or
th st 1,422 were German , 1,757 British , 307
Ameican , 326 French nUli 130 miscelaneous ,
The total claims aggregated ! l,6l.S92 acres ,

8 ua per u cent at the claims were conlrmell Time

I : ! rejoctel hl'l'ause of the manifestly hiadefin

the ( titles were decctvt' Uller several or the
provisIons or the treaty. About 21000 acres
were conOrued \mcrlcans. . 103t of them
helonred to a corporation comp03cII of San

"At the time the investigation took place "

dCs not believe there are thirty Americans

wealLhlesL man In the countr ) ' . Some of
these are married to native women mil lmrabIs

"I have been thus explicit In reference to
the property owned I ) ' Americans , as veil as
to the number or Americans In the coun-
trr , In order that time dellrtment may Imow

eloped In the course of the iruvestigatlonns

Iu reference to l'lgo.Pago bay , Mr. Chain-
hers says that the claim of lie ( United

trmed , but that the claims are by uo means
valuable as the American public seems to
thlnle. WhaL are thought to he the most valu-

that a man can easily wade from one 10 the

CHICAGO , April 4.-A generous offer or
Marshall Field to the Woman's Christian
Temperance union Is nnnounccd. My 'Ield
promises I $25,000 wih the proviso that $275-
000 more ire raised by Jannrrary I , 1896. I Is
IntendeJ i that this total sum be applied to the
debt overhanflng : the Woman's Temple. The
building of the 'oman's Temple Is the
Set st financial enterprise In which a
coterie or women intro engaged. The builth
Ing l was erected from money secured lIy the
sale or stock and heads. The association
was capitalized for $ GOOOO and ! bonded for
na equal nmount The bUllllnJ cost $2,165-
000 , leavIng a floating debt of G5OOO. The
trustees or the Temple , wbo dlshurst' the gilt
fund , have purchased over $300,000 ot stock ,
which gives them time controlling : interest In
the building . When the entIre stock 'Is '
owned by them and the bonded debt lqui-
dated the property wi bo deeded to the
Natonal Woman's Christian Temperance
union. One.hal tbo Inclle wi Tem\rance
national society and one-hal to the states
pro rta the amount each state has paid
toward the building fund The ( line has
conic when the umbra wants to make the
\Vomair's Temple Its own In fact. Lady
Henry Someret wrote to Mr. Field saying
any fnancial failure In Chicago would be-
disastrous t temperance worl '
t lmperaneo all over the
world In a few da's Mr. Field responded
with his offer , and plans are respndo )
feced to secure the desired amount. Mrs
