It has been learned, while the note referred to was by no means as objectiorable as reported, its tone was not agreeable to this govern- ment and the Chilian minister, upon a courteous request that he should do 80, immediately withdrew it, THE TEXAS PACIFIC LAND GRAY The house judiciary committee to- day further discussed Knott's resoiu- tion to declare the forfeiture of lands in New Mexico, Arizona and Southern California, granted by congress to the Texas Pacific railtoad company (relin- quished to the Souchern Pacific rail- road company, of Californin), and to provide for their restoration to the public domain. Thete was but one member who opposed the passage of the resoiutlon, and it passed; yeas 10, nays 1, The discussion developed the fact that the conclusions of tho mombers in favor of declaring the forfeiture were based upon va:ious constructions of the granting act.

At yesterday's meeting of the com- mittes, when Newall applied to be heard, Representative Townshend (Ils.) moved that J. J. Newall be permitted to submit a statement which he desired to make, showing his reasons why the grant of the Texas Pacific road should be forfeited, and in explanation of the charges made by him, that the grant was obtained by fraud and is confequently void.

He said he had purchased his controlling interest in The Capital from Don Piatt in March, 1880, for 810,000, Cieneral Brady furushing the money. He was asked if he had not told Walsh, in July, 1881, that he had paid Brady in kind for this money. He said he had some cou- yeraation with Walsh, but thought he had told Walsh he had not prid him for that act; Brady did not hold his notes for the loan, but had since sur- rendered them to him. He admitted that he assumed charge of The Cap- ital upon receiving money from Lrady. He did not think it a singular thing for him to apply to a compurative stranger for money; perhaps he might have represented to Brady that the paper might be made useiul to him, He had resigned his position a8 printing clork because of his scru- ples about the law. Merrick —Do you mean to tell the jury you surrendered this $2 100 place for a $10,000 feo offercd by Walsh? Witness said he wished to secure money with which to purchase Tne Capital, when he resigned and did not then expect to borrow money from him, Witness said Saulsbury had wnguged him to write an argument for him whon a proviso was abour to ba in- serted diseriminating agaiost the Suuls- bury contrac's, He had drawn upon Saulsbury afterward for those sorvices but the draft had been returned pro- tested. He had not told newspapor men generally he would biow up the whole thing and give away the con- cern generally, Brady included, if Saulsbury did not pay this bill. Ia fact he said he knew nothwg to tell, He had made over his stock in The Capital to Gen, Brady, recciving in return his own note and had then continued in the position of editor. Witness said he had written many articles on the star route matter for The Critic and The Capita), always on the side of the defence. Morrisk,despite objectionsof the do- fense, read from these articles, The reading created much amusement in the court room, even Judge Wylie smiling when a particularly stinging passage reforring to himeelf was read, Wilson said ho expected to show there was a newspaper controversy growing out of this matter, in which the defendants had been in the min- ority, He would also show that New York pipers criticised his honcr On redirect examination witness said none of the defendants except Brady vere interested in either The Oritic or The Capital Thirtsen large volumes of records Ho did not know Brady !

LAND DRCISIONS, The secrotary of the interior decides that the desert land act requires more than mere conducting of water upon the land to which title is sought. Trrigation must thoroughly prepare the land for production of an agricul- tural crop. T..e secretary of the in terior also holds the only bar toa person who has already filed an ontry to a homestead grant, from filing other and different entry, is section 2201, revised statutes. The decision of the secretary of the interior is when parties have sottled upon land and made ontry, if the entry is after- ward cancelled by the deputy for non compliance with the law, still the purchase money must be refunded to the sottler, if it appears it was his honest opinion that his residence was legal within the law. PAYING OFF THE DERT, The decrease in the Lewis will caso was signed by Judge Nixon, of New Jersey. The amount to be applied to the national debt is $068,680, This will be done by cancelling bonds or assigning them to the secrotary of the treasury.

After reciting the va- rious house resolutions which led to an investigation the report says that the committee is of the oninion that the missing papers from the files of the state departioent were not of such a character or importatce as to furnish a motive for pudoining them from the files, ba: that ‘thoy suggests groater caution in the future, After rehearsing the condition of the South American states and the differ ences which led to the war between Chili and Peru, ete., ete., the commit- tee next refor to the private interests which became so conspicnous, * ‘Cochet and Laundreau,” ciaimants, and the ‘“‘Oredit Industrial,” representing the Peruvian bondholders, were exeed- ingly avxious that the United States should interfere on behalf of Peru, in order to preserve her autonomy and enablo her to discharge her pecuniary obligations, The committee findsthat neither patriotism nor international policy had anything to do with them. The committee also finds there wa no truth in the allegations of Shipherd ainst Hurlburt and that W. H. uriburt’s testimony relieves his brether of all suspicion and that there is no evidence on reeord of approval by this administration of the project of the Credit Industrial in all its de- tails, any more than there has been by its predecessors, and that it finds that Blaine's instructions to Hurl- burt were as guarded as those of Evarts to Christiancy. The committee dismiss as unworthy of any serious or further considera- tion of any charges made and ask to be discharged from further considera- tiou ot the subi DAVITT'S DESIGNS.
