ALLEGED SCHEME TO CHANGE THE GOVERN
ME&T OF THE INDIAN TERRITORY
Saecf0l Dispatch to The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. n.-One Of the
duties assigned the Committee on Territories
last summer was to investigate charges that
railroad corporations owning roads in the Indian
Territory had issued several million dollars
worth OF bonds based On conditional land
grants The roads charged with having issued
the conditional land-grant bonds were asserted
to be laboring for 4 change in the form OF Coy
e:nHcnt OF the Indian Territory. Under the
present form OF Government the land grants
are practically worthless, but, should Terri
:orIal form Of Government be established there,
the lands could be disposed Of by the company,
and the bonds issued thereon would immc-
diately become valuable. The evidence has
been laid before the Committee showing that
in the nei.hboEhood Of S15,0W.0W
of these conditional land grant bonds
had been issued By one corporation, which llas
over zoo miles OF railroad in the Indian Terri
tory. These bonds are held chiefly in France
anu Germany, although quite number OF them
arc sald to be owned in New York Two other
corporations owning lines OF road are also sala
to have issued conditional bonds on Their land
grants in the Territory. In view OF the interests
ut stake, great anxiety Is manifested bF various
persons here to learn what action the Conl
mirtcc will take iu reference to q new ioTm OF
Government for the Territory. Seserai tEa!ans
interested III the matter will be given lnal
hearing on the subjec: next week, and the Com
nittec will then agree upon report

and chemists announced the discovery
