WASHINGTON , Sept. 3.-The acting secretary - tary of the interiOr has rendered three Important - portant decisions regarding tIme ownershIp of Immensely valuable accretion lands lying north of the Chicago : rlver In the city of Clii- cago. The gist of the decisions Is that the land does not belong to the United States government , but probably does belong to the state of ' Illinois. ' The first case la that of George Streeter and P. T. Johnson who applied to make homestead entry of about 150 acres of land lying on both sides 01 the Chicago river , at its mouth In Lake Michigan. I 18 a portion of land fled In by dumJlng botweomi the I meander line amid that establshed by the government survey In 1821 and the present water Une. Johnson claims to have lived there In a house built on piles for sixteen years amid StreAter claims to have bean wrecked there In 1886 and to Have lived there : for two years. Technically this land Is part of sections 3 and 10 , of township 3 , amid these sectons sections , the secretary says were selected by the state of Illinois In 1827 for canal pur- poses uller authoriy of an act of congres The secretary says the slate or Illinois owns the lands under time navIgable waters or Lake Michigan within Its limits , arid that the filling . In by _ any , person ' . or L. corporation . , _ not the owners or snore mantis gives onemot no riparIan rights. In nny case , he says , the , Unltttl State government has no title and therefore could convey none to any claimant. The secoml case Is that of Jacob NIne amid others against N. IC FaIrbank and others. The former tried to locate military bounty land warrants on 120 acres of Iccrelon land north of the Chicago river between the origInal - Inal survey meander line and the present water line. The secretary Iechles ! that the United States has no title to the hnd' . The third case Is that of Peter T. Johnsn , who Joined with ' Streeter In the first men- tinned applca'ton , to' locate valentine scriJ ) on ffty-f\'l acres of accretion land south of the Chlcalo river. I 18 rejected like the other8 for want of title by time UnIted States 'government. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ItflS'i'ltIC'l'INS ) OX :1 nCr\XTI .

However there was driftwood - wood foatng In time stream anti I caught a log and floated down the rIver for a considerable . able distance. FInaly I found a place where I could touch bottom and waded out on the land. I laid 1 down there all night and nil time next day. "I was In no condition to go back to the Springs and accordingly I came to Kansas City. Because of my appearance I went tD a cheap rooming house on Grand avenue , near Flftim. I stayed there four days . On the second day I shaved off nil IY beard. Then I went to Chicago. From Chicago I went to Milwaukee and stayed most of the fall of that year. ly that time the name of Frnker had been too much advertised anti I tolll a roommate that I was from Denver and my nme was Wiiam b'clmnoil. I went by the name of Schnel from that time on. "I lived In WIsconsin and Mlnneo ever since. I stayed most of the those In towns. I went from one place to anether. No , I won't tel you what towns we visit oJ. I had not decided to stay away until the papers said all kinds of timings about me.

Finally when the queH'on : "Who gave you away to the insurance companies - panics , and furnished the information that caused your arrest ?

Several days ago Mr. Lincoln started to California to bring back five orphan children , beneficiaries of raker's Insurance monei I Is probable that Uncle Jake Crowley , James Triplett and George V.

A gentleman promInenty connected with I 'one 01 the Insurance companies victImized by Fraker takes a ls8 conldent view or the situation. He saId : ' "It 18 very unlke\ U.at Fraker can be held on any charge. He disappeared , but ho never put In a claim for any life Insurance. The InFurnce has been paid , but there Is not any proof that he received - ceh'ed a cent or tried to get a cent. The money was Ilahl without any actual proof 01 death I can never be proved that Fraker actually put up a job to defraud the companies - panies without his own admission , and even I I were proven nothing could be recovered on account or the manner In which the money has been distributed among the heirs.
