WASHINGTON , July 21. ( Special Tele-
Rram ) - Hc-iretnry Smith has at last reached
a decUlon In the Otoo and Missouri reserva
tion nml tor , nnd today directed the com-
mlsnloncr of the general land office to
notify all settleron ! these lands , who arc
" " .In arrears In their pa > incuts to settle up
within ninety dajs , or their entries will
be cancelled In his letter to the com-
inlHuIoner Secretary Smith calls attention
to tbu order of last summer and Us BUS-
jirnslon He then says.
In addition to efforts which I have pro-
\lously m.ulu under net of .March 3 , IMW ,
to effect n Hottlomont between the Olou
nml Mlssotnl Indians nnd purthasors of
their lands In Kalism and Nebraska , I
ngaln. on April 8 , liD'i , through James
0 Die kson , special agent submtttrd to
thn Indians unilir said act for thelt < on-
Hcnt then of , a proposition for Hiie.li tebato
nnd adjustment of thcli dllToionees with
Hald t > uri lingers as In my Judgment the
pilnclpUs of equity ( leinanilicl ' 1 hat
proposition was rejected without rrsorva-
tlon by the Indians , but from confeitiue
with the Indians , which occurred afterward -
ward , I was uulhorlred by them to allow
n rclinto of ten years' Interest to the o
of said purchasers , who would , within
ninety dajs after nollr-o , pi > the residue
- of the iiurihasn monev and Intercut re
maining unpaid , after the deduction of said
ten Jims' Interest The app.ucnt delay
In promulgating this pioposftlon has been
canned principally because the jurisdiction
of thn department him been questioned
The question which was raised was. "Has
the Inli rlor di partmont any power to
cancel Otoo nnd Missouri c-ntrlps for fall-
uru to make deferred payments ? " The
rights whldi tlio settler foi felts by failure
TO make thn llrst cash payment is the right
to inmhnso. acnulrod b > his settlement
Jiml application. The practice has been
that when pioof of .settlement was duly
made within ninety days from the date of
application to purchase , nnd cash pay
ment In Ing made , entry was allowed As
rash jiumont Is precedent to entry , It
folloua that failure to make s.ilcl piyment
would furnish no grounds for the can
cellation of entry not In existence , but the
right to purchase would bo gone and the
tract subject to purchase by subsequent
settler
The right of the department to concel
the entry tiny tlmo before patent , where
fa lure to comply with the law or bad
iiilth on the p-irt of the cntryman Is
shown , has been decided so often by the
department and courts that It Is elemental
and reference to authorities In support
thereof Is hnrillv required I am tully
purstiadod. theinfore of the power of the
secretary of the interior to cancel the
entries of these purchasers of Otoo nnd
Mlssouil lands who are In default In their
deferred payments
You are therefore hereby instructed to
direct the local olllcers at HtMtrleo to
notify those purchasers of H.ild I mils who
are In arrears on deferred payments theto-
ior , th.it to nil those who within ninety
days make settlement in full n nb.ite of
ten years' Interest on the amount of
prlnclp.il and Interest duo at the date of
mittlement will be allowed nnil to also
notify them that on theli failure to .settle
an proposed , within the tlmo prescribed ,
their entries will bo cancelled.

WASHINGTON' . July 21. A most unique-
report has reached the State de
partment from United States Con
sul Meeker at Bradford. enclosing
two samples of the wedding gowns selected
f tor the trousseau of Princess Maud. Ono ta
of pure black mohair will , raised black
diamond figures , and the second Is a pure
white tnohnlf with small ( lower effects
These were selected by the royal family from
a largo number of samples submitted for ap
proval by the Bradford
merchants , who arc
very pioud of the distinction conferred upon
their tow n by the choice of their wares for
the use of rojalty , and natuially expect an
enormous rush ot patronage as a result of
the advcitlscnicnt.
It appears also from Mr. Mceker's report
that America Is not the only country where
the modish set bclle\o that goods must beef
of foreign origin to bo worthy of their use
nnd attention The British merchants have
complained bitterly for a long time because
of the preference shown for French and
olhor Huropean fabilcs over tlio productions
of their own looms , although they made
goods of undoubted superiority , not only In
quality , but In design Mr. Meeker cites
some Interesting facts to show this home
prejudice against local goods and Its small
foundation Ho sajs It transpires that some
Bradford goods hud already been selected
at n London diaper's by the royal family
simply on their merits , and without knowing
that they were of domestic oilgln It has
been discovered that Cngllsh dress goods
liavo been Imported Into France and re-
exported to nngland and sold as Trench
goods Ono prominent manufacturer of
Bradford hud long been trjlng In vain to
Induce his wlfo to have a gown made of his
own goods Ills triumph can bo Imagined

MILWAUKttB. July 21. The form of the
postponed order confirming the sale of the
Northern Pacific properties was presented
to Judge Jenkins by the attorncvs this aft
ernoon. The first section , comprising the
main line , will bo sold for $10.000.000 , the
minimum amount allowed by the decree of
sale The second parcel will bring at least
$2,000,000 , and the third parcel $300,000
These amounts , however , are not all that
the purchasers will have to pay. Judge
Jenkins ordered changes made In the form ,
which will furnish ample protection to the
bondholders who have not come Into the
reorganisation agreement. They will re-
celvo what was the market value of the
bonds before the market was affected by
the reorganization This provision was In-
ocited by the court , and the purchaser
must ngrco to pay hi addition to the nom
inal amounts such sums as may bo neces
sary to pay the amount of this claim. Th"1
judge also objected to the language of the
form , which made the court hold that the
company had been duly oiganlzed In con
formity with the laws ot the state The
form was changed so aa to prevent the
statement as a recital , and not as adjudi
cation Some few minor changes were also
made before the court was satisfied.

MILWAUKCB. July 21. The arguments
on the motion of the Seattle reorganisation
committee to restrain the Northern Pacllic
stock distribution until their rights arc
adjudicated , was completed this afternoon
The decision Is not expected Immediately.
It Is likely to bo handed down before the
sale , however. Most of the lawyers will
remain in the ctly until Friday , when thc >
go to West Superior to attend the sale and
then will return to Milwaukee to present
the motion for confirmation. No time is to
be lost in selling the properties of the
Northern Pacltlc company and in having
the sale confirmed by Judge Jenkins.
Trancls Lyndo Stetson , the attorney for J
P. Morgan & Co , gave notice In the United
States court this morning that the sale
would proceed Saturday morning' ' and that
on Holiday the attornejs would make a
proposition to Jildgo Jenkins for an order
confirming the bale. Mr Stetson said lie
gave the notice In order that the application
for the confirmation of the sale could be no
surprise to the parties.
