Washington, 5.-The commissioner of the general land office has rendered a decision in the case of Rancho Arroyo Del Rodeo, embracing about 1,500 acres of very valuable land, located in Santa Cruz County, California. Commissioner Williamson decides that as a survey was regularly published under the act of June, 1860 and no objection filed thereto, the publication of the same under the act of 1864 was without authority of law and of no effect; that the land office has no jurisdiction to consider objection made by claimants in pursuance of that publication, and that patent should issue upon Wallace's survey as approved by Surveyor General Maudeville.
