For over an hour the fowof deputies were helpless, but fioiliv succeeded in forming the crowd into line. Several “grafters” came up on th«* train and got into line for the pur- pose of selling their places. M<et of them came to grief in short order, th officers pulling them out of lineassoqi as they made offers of that kind. Only 27 tilings were made yestenlay. Th tiling of one claim is «ompleted before another is taken up, andtbe woik is necessarily slow.

The land office has adopted the plan of issuing numbers to those in line, so that» place in tlie line once secuted is goal. Several hundred were awaiting the opening of the land otiic«' this morning.
