Grandchildren of Jonathan Car ver Want 7)000,000 .Acres In the Northwest, Including the Cit ies of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Tlio Matter Hits Ilccn Ilroucht Ilcf oro tlio ticneral I.11111I Odlco, Wlit-ru u Itoprc-si-utntUo Is Making nil Kxuiulimllou of tliii Records Cabinet Meeting. Washington, Nov. 10. An Immense claim embracing 7,000,000 acres of land in the northwest and including the cities of Minneapolis and St, Paul, was brought before Commissioner Her mann, of the general land ofllco Tues day, and the assistance of tlio govern ment in securing ollioial data was called for. The claimants are C. 1$. llollowny, of Holland, O., and A. U. Guun, of Mnuince, O. They are now making an examination of the general land olllcc records with a view to .securing copies of certilied papers, which they assert will establish their title to tlio lands claimed by them. Their ancestor, through whom they claim title, was Jonathan Carver, an Englishman, a. well known explorer in the last century. Carver lived among the Indians of the northwest, mostly in what is now Minnesota and Wiscon sin, and lor a time ho was adopted by some of the tribes, including the Nnwdnnissiu, who made him chief, and for valuable services rendered, it is claimed by the heirs, presented him the vast tract. They assert that this tribal act was ratified both by King George 1H and tho continental con gress. Gunn claims as great grandson of Carver and Ilolloway's wife is the great granddaughter. ,A represen tative of the heirs had a long inter view with Land Commissioner Her mann Tuesday, where their conten tions were explained. Tho depart ment will render whatever assistance is possible in the way of . securing in formation. The cabinet held a brief session Tues day. Tho time was occupied to a great extent in discussing the orders to the revenue cutler Hear, which were pre pared at the treasury department The instructions were approved and tho Hear will sail as soon as sho can bo made ready. Tho president is gathering informa tion regarding his message and has discussed tlio subject with members of the cabinet, ascertaining their views and their opinions of suggestions of fered by senators and representatives. The war department has awarded to C, I. McDonald, of Pittsburgh, the low est bidder, the contract for building six locks on tho Monongahola river, numbering from 10 to 15 inclusive. As in the case of the Ohio river locks, a -iiimhpr nf nrntoRt-4 hnil lwpn Indn-pl against the nwnrtl In this fcishion,"but tho department officers found that they were required by the law to act as they did. The total amount of the bids is about 000,000. Washington, Kov. 10. Tho attitudo of tho administration towards tho sub ject of reciprocity with Canada is prob ably disclosed in tlio following state ment of a government official: "Tho task of tlio government would bo made easier if the statesmen in congress would bo controlled by the intorcsts of the country at large. Some of them unfortunately confine their views to a particular concession to be obtained from a foreign country for a local lutorcst; and then desire our compensatory concession to be made not by their own, but by some other locality. They make of reciproc ity a scries of questions to be settled in tho interest of particular districts. Wo may be able to secure arrange ments which will add millions to our national export trade, and .yet it might bo defeated by a combination of a few minor local interests not amounting to a million. Yet reciprocity means mutual concession, without this nothing can be accom plished. We must give a market if wo acquire one not necessarily a free market, but an accessible market. Take coal for illustration. By giving access to the New England coast wo might gain access (perhaps control) in the coal market of all central Canada, with mutual advantages by reason of geographical and transport conditions. Would it be wise for coal producers to antagonize these national conditions? "It is the same with other articles of commerce where long water transport ation is balanced against short rail way carriage. In some things we can acquire un almost exclusive market, Kreatly increasing our exports, in ex change for a market open only to the competition of tho other party. So It is with some phases of the question of logs and coarse lumber, against manu facturers of wood. Whenever wo en large tho market of manufactures wo inevitably enlarge demand for our raw material from which they are made; and this tends to Inercaso tho price paid to the original producer. The advantages of increased trade are widely distributed. "Tho major portion of commercial ex change in this country is in the excep tional condition of producing a sur plus, both of raw material and of the manufacture products. Our policy must take into view this situation, al though it increases our difficulty In negotiations which shall satisfy every interest. All that can be hoped is a result, which, in the aggregate, shall be clearly advantageous to the nation as a unit. All producers are also con sumers and they often gain on one side as much as they lose on the other." Ono Tour Tor Stoning Train. Kenton, 0 Nov. 10.

Grand Forks, N. 1)., Nov. 10. "An Innocent, man was hung by lynchers at Williampoi-l," was the startling state ment mado Monday by Chief Justice Corlis, of the state supreme court. "I havo ample documentary evidence to the statement," continued tlio judge. "Tlio supremo court ordered a new trial In Coudot's case be cause It appeared that he was convicted on tho uncorroborated evidence of Holy track and Ireland, both of whom confessed 'taking part in the murder of tho Spicer fam ily and whoso statements were refuted by tho strong alibi testimony given by Dr. Rosi). the resident agency physi cian at Standing Rock. Dr. Ross' ver acity is unquestioned and his testi mony is supported by notes from his memorandum book. Another fact Is that Holytrack and Ireland mado two other previous confessions, in neither of which did they im plicate Coudot. Holytrack and Ire land were sure to have expiated their crime on the gallows as there was no question of their guilt, but the mob mauo no distinction anu hung the in nocent with tho guilty. Tlio lynching of Coudot is a foul crime and a blot on the fair name of tho state, and his murderers should not go unpunished. Bismarck, N. D., Nov. 10. An inter esting legal question is presented by Sunday's lynching of three of tho Spicer murderers. Two of the men, Holytrack and Ireland, were the stato's witnesses, and without their testimony the state has no case against the two surviving suspects, Black Hawk and Defender. There is, there fore, now no possibility of con victing them before any tribunal tor the reason that the state's wit nesses, self-confessed accomplices of the murderer, aro dead. At tho com ing term of court when the two men aro arranged for trial they must bo dismissed. The feeling against Black Hawk lias been Intensified by the report that Coudot confessed before his hanging that Black Hawk and Defender were concerned In the crime, it has been the opinion of a large num ber of people In Emmons county that Black Hawk was the instigator of tho ;rime. If ho is discharged it is pre dicted that unless he has an escort out sf tho county he will share the fate of his comrades in crime. Defender, tho other survivor, has consumption and It is predicted can not live over a year. It Is claimed the majority of tho lynchers were from Winona where the srimc was committed but nothing cer tain is known. The authorities at Fort Yates and the Indian authorities at Standing Rock were not aware of tho lynching until Sunday night Two of the men lynched were wards of the government and the lynching may bring about some action by tho gov ernment to discover by whom they were lynched.
