The olhcers of the Interior Depart
ment are considerably worried over the
ruling of the first Comptroller, which
will possibly prevent the use of nearly
2 iOOJ in surveying lands, the appro
priation act provided that of the$3iov
Ot'O appropriated $125,00,1 should be ex
liended within railroad limits, and the
Comptroller holds that none ol the nal
ance can he exp'ndvd within these I i in
its. As large portions of public lands
are witlrn railroad grants, especially
lands which it is desirable to survey, it
is pos-ible that a great many States will
be short on funds lor surveys. It is
thought Oregon would be the sufferer
under this ruling, while portions of
Washington State would be benefited.
Acting Secretary Chandler says that
notwithstanding the ruling he intends
to ext end the money where he thinks it
will do the most good, reirardlee of the
fact thnt it may be expeuded within the
