The Supreme Court appointed a Special Master to oversee proceedings in an interstate water rights dispute between Nebraska and Wyoming, granting the Special Master authority to manage pleadings, summon witnesses, take evidence, and issue reports. The Court ordered that the costs of the Special Master and all associated expenses be shared among the parties as the Court would later direct, and referred pending intervention motions to the Special Master for consideration.
