Two suits for nearly $14,000,000 In volving more than a million and a halt acres of laud alleged to have heeu erroneously taken over by tho government were filed in the court of claims yesterday by the Klamath and Modoc Tribes and Yahooskitt bands of Snake Indians In Oregon and California. In one suit the Indians ask $8,047,029, alleged to he due them for 1,500,000 acres which they claim were erroneously excluded from their possession through errors and Inaccuracies in the treaty of ISC ! under which they ceded to the government certain lands In the two states and re served a specified tract for a reservation. The second suit grew out of Ihe granting to Oregon by the gov ernment of certain alternate sec tions of public lands for the con struction of a military wagon road which, when built, passed through the Indians' reservation for a dis tance for approximately 100 miles. It is charged In the suit that 112,000 acres of their land was erroneously patented to the Oregon Central Wagon lioad company which built the road, and taut the secretary of interior later ex changed this tract for 87,000 acres of unallotted lands within the reservation. The petition alleges that the 87,000 acres were covered with timber and were worth $6,000, 000. Although congress appropri ated J10S.750 to pay the indians for the land, the Indians accepted that sum under protest and tho suit asks $5,891,250. which, with the $10S 750 already received they allege to be the reasonable value of Ihe property. ne-sday. authorities state.
