Railroads Win Suit Over Title to Oil Lands
Washington June 22 The Supreme Court upheld title to about 700 million dollars worth of petroleum lands claimed by transcontinental railroads against private rivals in a test case brought by Edmund Burke of California against the Southern Pacific. The decision ruled government officials must determine if lands are mineral before patent, and that patents are binding unless fraud or error is shown. Justice Van Devanter noted the ruling may affect other railroad land claims, including Northern Pacific. The long case involved vast mineral wealth and potential impacts on farms and towns formed on former railroad lands.
