The document discusses a delegation of Pawnee Indians who requested payment for delegation expenses and clarification on the ownership of Pawnee Agency Lands. The delegation was informed that payment for expenses would require consent from the tribe and approval from the Secretary of the Interior and the President. The Court of Claims decision confirmed that the title to the school and agency lands belonged to the Pawnee tribe. The government holds these lands for agency and school purposes, but some may be leased for oil and gas purposes.
