1. Against United States; suit to restrain Secretary of Interior and Land
Commissioner from illegal action; nature of suit.
A suit to restrain the Secretary of the Interior and the Land Commis-
sioner from doing, under color of their office, an illegal act which will
cast a cloud upon the title of complainant is not one against the
United States, nor in this case is it one for recovery of land merely
or an attempted appeal from the decision of the Interior Depart-
ment or a trial of title to land not within the jurisdiction of the
court and wherein the United States is not present or suable.
