President Harrison refused to sign tbe bill until there had been a modification of that provision relating to the cuttingol timber m mineral states, and this modification will seriously affect those states. ; Secretary Noble (¡led nine specific rea i sons why tbe bill should not become a law, and was very urgent before the president insisting that he should veto it. The modification passed in the resolution gives the secretary of the interior power to regulate matters relating to the cut ting of timber ami al) cases where the Uuited Slates has brought suit against people who have removed timber. In structions have already been sent to the lan«i officer® directing theai to allow no further entries until the rules and reg ulations of the interior department can be promulgated, which will be a few weeks. < >ne effect is conceded an«l that is that it will affect five-sixths of all the contests now p-n<l ntf before the department. It is quite probable that the practical work ing of the law will demonstrate that the next congress will have to make some modifications in its provisions.

If the department should constitie one section of that law to mean that timber entries are covered, it will settle disputes to «50,- 000,000 or «00,000,000 worth of timber lands in those states, and confirm what is fully believed to be gigantic frauds against the government. There is some dispute a« to whether the sec'ion alluded to specifically mentioning homesteads, pre-emptions, timber claims ami desert lands claims, and dismissing ca-es against these claims, where the proofs have not been questioned until after two years from the t me they were made, applies to the entr.es for timber lands in those states.
