Washing-cn. July 2ft?A "statement show?
ing tbe quantity of land actually restored
to tbe public domain, and of land recom?
mended for recovery by the action of the Genera!
Land Office $nd Secrets_ry of the Interior, from
March 4, K'fcS, to May 12, l$gg,a has been issued
by Commissioner Stockslnger. and sown broadcast
ever the country for oampuign purposes. Thii
ao-called statement is printed upon one side only
for mon convenient use hy newspapers and cam?
paign oratora, and the Commissioner's signature
is neatly appended in facsimile, which is designed
to give additional weight to the startling propo?
rtions contained in thc circular, which has re?
ceived the warm approval of President Cleveland.
Under tin- head of *' lands actually resrored to the
pubho domain" are given 2.1 o_.41 7*'i.'i acres si
Unds in granted railroad lim ita. This is made
np of four items, wluch'are as follows :
1?The decision ol the Interior Department that
thc forfeiture of tlie Texas and Paoilic Railroad
grant carrie-e! with tl a forfeiture of the Boat-MSB
Pacific grant within conflicting limns. 'lins
was a decision made purely aad sim?
ply for Democrat, ? buncombe." us no forfeiture

been ISBBSBfd, it viii iimitif-atii.n;i>?ly get them.
And this is s- wall known thal sol a stagle oatry
applieatmn has ever been maeie- by settlers or " out?
siders" f< I hinds embraced in thia " bee^us" restora?
tion.
The second item is the claimed test oration of
l.soo.ooo ;,cres of Atlantis and Paeifle Railroad
lands in California. The late CoaaBtiaaioB : S| arks
held that there was no grant of these 1,500,001
ncr* A Judee Sawyer, of the I'mrcd States ? ll
emt Court, hu*! previously so derided, and the De
liar, mental '? restoration"?so calleu? ?..us a mere
clerical act.
The third item ,s s " restoration" of 32,400
acres of N. rt hern ]*acifie lands. The questior
in this ease was in what direction a cert.un ter?
minal should be drawn. If it was drawn in one
direction the grant would take land on one side.
I tlie I.ri- wis rim in thc other elircetion the
r*.ilr.\id would gel the sime qttaatity of la'i.l on
ther side. Tlie railroad got its 13,400 acres
ir. any event, and no lauds were saved to the pub?
lic domain
The lasr item in those "restorations" is 10,017
a-rcs of Si. ux City and St. Paul Railroad lands in
Iowa winch the State had lefsssd t" accept and
. were rcconveyed to the United States upon
a request originally matte by the Repnbiieas Com?

TEE INDIANS BELD AT STANDING BOCA
THE COMMISSIONERS STIIX HOPgrtX. ASD THE
BRAVES SQUALLY BETERMIWED.
Standing Hoc* Agency, nat. July 20 (Special).?The
Indians at this agency, who have decided unanimously
not to consent io the opening of thc Itesarvation, but
who are being held at the agency In the hope that
they will change tbelr minds, have put In a quiet Sab?
bath. Many of the young bucks have lett for their
farms, but they will be brough! back for to-morrow's
conference. in council laet night the Indians spoke I
strongly against the policy of tho Commission in keep?
ing ihem here after they havo rendered their decls.on.
They say that they will not sign If kept hero j
fur six months. Tho Commissioners are still
hopeful that they may induce somo of them to sign j
but there is small foundation for their hope. The '
meeting of to-morrow or Tuesday will doubtless be
tbe la_t at this agency and tho Commissioners will
leave for Pine Ridge or Cheyenne, in a few days
an attempt will be made to force the Indians to sign
either *? yes-* (,r ?? no,'' but the Indians are sus?
picious and yvili not touch the paper they
cannot read, and fear that a trick is about to be
played on them. Chairman Pratt, of the Commis?
sion, who has attempted to keep the facts from the
preoa, has fi.und that dealing with Indians like Call
and John Grass ls vastly different from subduing ami
commanding a few Indian children In the school at
t arl ib . Penn
Sifting Iluil refuses to return to the agency nntll the
Commissioners han bom sway, and n in more than i
probable that he will I*, forced In br the police nr tbe

some huntsmen icar Hyem Mountain expressed the ns*

upon a lower supe of Lyon Mountain and built a fire

To a Tl lbs BB reporter, whn tabed hitit on Satur

Juhr. M. candider praaideat nf tbs nmpaay, said
that it was entlr-ei*. | | the uncertalr-ty bnegbt
ai..i r by tariff legtolallon"; that their castoaters'wera
walting, before giving their onl--s to sc if the Mills
bill wooli! bn pas??i, arni foal th- company did not
want tn accumulate a large amount of Mock on an
' ' tin market.
?? What e-ifrct would ihe passage of the MlUa bill
havo upon your Industry 1"
" We would bc obliged to lower wagoe tn order to
compete with foreign manufacturers. I will tell you
why. The present tariff on the raw material ls 10
cents a pound, ana on the manufactured article there
ls a duty of 35 rent*, which ls our mainstay of pro
tccflnn. Now, were boin these duties wiped out, as
the Mills bill proposes, wo might save a small sum in
bartag free raw wool, but lr would not. be equivalent
to one-half what we would lose by thc removal of iha
weight duty on the manufactured article. This
litl'-feneo would either rauso us to close our mills or
make- it up in some other way. We cannot curtail
our general expenses. We have been giving from GO
lu 150 per cent more for la)>or than ls paid In der
many arni England. Our competition ls principally
foreign."
Mr. Carpender then alluded to some statement*
ille-ged tn have been made by a stockholder In regard
lo the - shutting down-- of the nilli. Ile ?ald rhar th?
rharg*** of mlsmaiiagemenr were false from beginning
to end. "In fact," continued Mr. Carpender. u tbeee
ihlngs are tromped up to sustain the position that
tari ft legislation has nothing to do with the temporary

V. M. Hmso, the treasurer nf the company, took
'he same ground a* Mr Carpender. anil said: "I
iave been a life-long Democrat, but I know arbon my
