OKLAHAMA COLONIsTs.
A Farce that Should be stOpped-Let the
Country be Opened.
Kansas City Times.


The Washington Post appreciates and un-
destands the situation when it speaks of the
eviction of Captain d. L. Payne and his
colopists from Oklahama, after this style:
"The farce OF permitting Captain Payne
and his coIonists TO enter the Indian Terri
tory only to be at once elected by a squad of
soldiers, ought no. to be repeated over three
or four times more. If he violates any order
or statute in 50 doinT, he ought to be pun
ished for the violation and that would
put an end to the colonization business
at least for a while. II he does not, the
rights of himself and associates in the
premises should be clearly determined, judi
cially or otherwise. Captain Payne has
twice appealed to the courts, involuntarily
on one occasion when arraigned at Fort
Smith, and voluntarily on another occasion
when he brought suit against General Pope
for damages, 10 have this question settled.
Yet nothing is done but to settle military
watch along the border and turn the
invader out whenever he steps across
the line. 1t is at best an undigni-
fed and unbecoming course of action. II
the government can do nothing else, why not
post up placsrds at every mile post On the
boundary, warning trespssssrs to keep off
the grass OF the much coveted ceded lands?
1t would require no great amount of time or
labor for Congress to define the exact amount
OF sacredness which ATTACHES to this domain,
and especially TO inform the public by an
act or resolution, whether any railroad COM
pany has privileged interest in the IA ,0G0,-
900 acres, now uselessly reserved from set
tlement, which private citizen has not"
AS long as the government has acceded, or
granted, privileges to railroad companies on
the disputed lands, it is high time, as the
POsf says, for the question TO be determined
and forever settled by what authority the
military is used 10 exclude private indIyidu-
ais from the enjoyment of the came privileges
and rights accorded corporations. They
who contend these lands are not open for
settlement, occupation by whites, maintain
that they were ceded to the government by
the Indians for especial purpose-for the
settlement OF other Indians and freedmen
thereon. If The government disregard the
treaty sipulations by which it acquired the
ends in the case OF railroads, what justice is
there in enforcing them against individuals.
AS the Times has shown before, from the
record, Congress has forbidden by resolution
that any more Indians shall be placed ON
these ceded lands, as the gathering of anY
number OF semi-hostile saVages on the borders
of Texas and Kansas would be regarded and
feared as a standing menace against the ex-
posed settlements OF those States. This reso-
Iution was adopted four years ago, and by

A LIE NAILED.
Bogus Interviews Published I'm the Chi.
caso Papers FiatIy Denied.

CHICAGO, June 14.-The Chicago papers
this morning contained specials purporting
to give an interview with General Rosecrans
regarding the recently publishe letter of
General Garfield 10 Secretary Chase. In
these specials General Rosecrans is reported
as saying: "But one year ago, when 1 at
tended the exercises at West Point, General
Anson Steger told me that he was one of the
four persons present at the Louisville inter
view with Stanton, and that what occurred
there was jnst the reverse of what was stated
by General Garfield. / believed Sieger, be-
cause would place his word against that OF
Garfield" This dispatch being shown to
General Anson Steger this afternoon, that
gentleman replied that he did not remember
TO have met General Rosecrans in years;
that he never had any conversation with
General Rosecrans at West Point, or else
where, as detailed in the special dispatch;
that until the publication of the purported
interview he was not aware that General
Rosecrans attended the West Point exercises
last summer, and that it is not, in fact, true
that he told General Rosecrans, or anyone
else, that what occurred at the Louisville
meeting with Stanton was the reverse of what
was stated by General Garfield.

CLEVELAND, June 14-One hundred more
men went to work in the Cleveland Rolling
Mills to-day than yesterday. The same Bo-
hcmisns who were stened last evening re-
turned this morning but were not molested.
No disturbance has occurred to-day. Skilled
work nen arrive daily, some from England,
and are employed. President Chisholm says
he receives letters every day from old en-
ployes, not in the union, who wish to go back
but are afraid. He says he can get plenty
of skilled hands from elsewhere, but prefers
to let the former employees resume their
places if they will rsnounce the union. He
speaks more determined to-day than ever
about operating the works untrammeled by
the dictation of the union. The mills are
practically fortified. They are fenced in
and garrisoned by a strong force Of we'll
armed men, who are quartered there day
and night, ready for service in case the
strikers attack the works, as they have

ALEXANDRIA, June 1.-THE bodies OF
the engineer of the Euglish ironclad Su-
perb and two seamen of the Helicon, killed
in the riot Sunday, have been buried at sea,
as it was deemed imprudent to risk the dan
ger that might have arisen from the funeral

bodies passed the United States steamer
Galena, the marines fred salute and all
on board uncovered their heads.
CAUSED GREAT CONSERVATION.
The statement of Dixie in the British
Commons that the riot in Alexandria was
not of a political character caused consterna.
cOuraged the natives to further violence.
Europeans anxiously desire that England
should make firm declaration of the course
that will be pursued in the Egyptian crisis
PANIC AMONG EUROPEANS.
Not only women and children are leaving
the country, but men with large material in
terest in Egypt are begging passages, and
leaving their property behind. Many large
capitalists are arranging to leave Egypt per-
manently, not in panic, but after calmly cal
culating the cost of such a step.
EFFECTS OF THE PANIC.
The mail steamer took 300 deck passen-
gers who paid frst-class fare, and three 9th sr
steamers took 1000 passengers. Boatmen
asked 0Of. to carry persons on board the
steamers. The usual fare is If.

CONGRESSIONAL
LIVELY SCENE IN THE HOUSE BETwEEl
MESSRS. KELLY AND WHITE.

LIVELY SCENE IN THE HOUSE BETWEEN
MEssRs. KELLY AND WHITE.
WASHINGTON, June IA House. = The
House went into Committee of the Whole
on the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill.
Unanimous consent having been given
few days sgo that Mr.. White Ky.l should
have the privilege of going back, for the
purpose OF offering an amendment to a para.
graph relative to the international revenue
bureau, that gentleman moved to strike out
the clause appropriating 81 ,975, 900 for sala-
ries and expenses OF collectors and their
deputies. 10 the course of his remarks ne
stated that Mr.. Miller, of the Whisky Asso-
citation, had sal dunder oath that Mr.. Kelley
had made bargain with the whisky people,
by which the tariff and whisky people had
pooled their interest in legislation.
Mr.. Kelley, who had been greatly dis
turbed by these insinuations, at once arose
and with great passion denounced the state
ment as the rawlings of lunaiic or deliber-
ate liar.
Mr.. White, pale with passion, retorted
that Mr.. Kelley might be scoundrel enough
to make such a charge.
Instantly a dozen members arose and de-
manded that the words be taken down.
This was done and the words were reported
to the House.
Mr.. Springer was ready with a resolution
instructing the Speaker TO censure both gen.
tlemen.
Here Mr.. White announced that he un-
derstood that Mr.. Kelley did not personally
refer to him, but TO statement OF Mr.. Mil
Ter.
Mr.. Kelley at once said that he referred to
Mr.. White. and to Mr.. White only.
There seemed nothing TO do but TO admin
lister rebuke Of the House.
Mr.. Kelley, in brief speech, apologizad
to the House, but added that the provocation

threatened. Mayor Herrick this forenoon
conferred privately with the commandants OF
infantry and artillery companies. He says
that hitherto the police have been on the
defensive, but since last nights riotous DEM
onstration more vigorous measures will be
adopted to prevent violence.
Nigh-The Police Commissioners met
this morning, appointed twenty-five special
policemen for service about the Cleveland
Rolling Mills, ordered the sanitary police on
duty there, employed two vehicles for expe-
diting arrests, and took steps to prevent the
threatened raid on the military armery. 1t
is understood, though not made public, that
the gatling gun and Light artillery batteries,
the Cleveland Grays and the Fifth Regiment
Of State militia are held in readiness for an
emergency. Their several armorIes chow

reason OF it, Il, 4,00O, 600 acres of land are un-
occupied and unused, and cannot be used, if
the dog-in-the-maDger policy OF the govern
meut Is kept up for any purpose whatever.
But reyerting to the action of Congress in
granting railroad privileges and land grants
in this territory, isn't il an admission, IN
point of fact, that these lands are regarded as
part of the public domain? II a part Of
the public domain for corporations, why not
for individuals? In other words, Congress
being in session, action should be taken at
once to prevent a recurrence of military evic-
tions from Oklahoma, so that the people can
have as good a show for homes in "the beau
tiful land" as has been accorded monopoly

was so great he had to defend mis- honor for
his own and his family's sake. He reminded
the House that in the twenty-five years ser
vice this was the 6rst time he had been re-
buked. He spoke with great emotion. The
speech was 30 pathetic that dozen mem
bers moved that his name be stricken from the
resolution OF censure. Before this was done
Mr.. White apologized, stating that he too
had labored under great provocation, es-
pecially as Mr.. Kelley had, in his recent
speech, alluded to him as lunatic.
Mr.. Kelley said that at the time he re-
ferred to Mr.. White as a lunatic he didn't
know there had been family affair Of that
sort.
Mr.. Whites apology was then accepted
nd the resolution of censure Withdrawn.
The House then again went into commit
tee, and Mr.. White offered several amend
ments to the internal revenue clause, but
they were all ruled out on points of order.
In debating them he criticised severely the
official conduct of the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, whom he declared to be a
''scheming politician" and he asserted that
the whisky ring was now at work with
view to elect congressman who would, after
the 4th of March next, help it to get its
famous schemes through the House and
Senate.
Several additional amendments were
adopted, when the committee rose, and the
bill having been reported TO the House was
Passed-yeas, 125; nays, As.

mending that the Committee on Appropria-
tions provide for payment to George L. Can
non, Of Utah. his salary and mileage up to
April 10, 1882, the day when his seat was
declared vacant. Adopted.
Mr.. ONeill, from the Committee on APP
preparations, reported the invalid pensions
appropriation bill. Referred 10 the Commit
tee of the Whole. The total amount appro-
priated is $l00,000.000.
The House then went into Committee OF
the Whole upon the river and harbor appro-
priation bill, but remained therein but few
moments.
Mr.. Kelley gave notice that when the bill
was disposed of he would call up the bill TO
reduce internal revenue taxation. Adjourned.
Senate.-Senator Miller, from the Com
merce Committee, reported an original bill
to provide for the construction of the Illinois
and Mississippi canal and for cheaper trans
portation. Placed ON the calendar.
The Senate resumed the consideration of
the Senate joint resolution to pay mail con-
tractors in various Southern States the
amounts due them on their contracts for
1859, 1850 and 1861, and reappropriating
S375, 1000 for that purpose. The vote upon
proceeding with the bill was-yess 80; nays,

rain has extinguished the fires and all the
danger has passed Many millions of feet Of
pine have been destroyed, but even the APP

The present high pric; Of beef is largely
d. TO the fact that for the past nine years
cattle have been shipped 10 Europe st the
rate of 1000 to 5000 head per week. This is
an enormous drain, and taxes beef produc-

reason is that the severe winter of 1880 81,

hard on cattle and caused losses by reducing

THE LITTLE JOKER.

-
THE WLSDoM COMMITTEE.
WASHINGTON, June A.-The Window
Committee resumed It's session to-day. Mr..
Buell., editor OF the Critic. again appeared
and read statement in which he undertook
to show that his former testimony had
been incorrectly reported. He also asserted
distinctly his belief that two of the
newspaper correspondents mentioned by
him the other day were "on the
make" but IN his crosse K animation by the
chairman and Senators Hawley and Harri-
son, he admitted that this was simply his
opinion and that he had ne knowledge of
fact which would justify such charge, or Of
any person who claimed to have such knowl-
edge personally. He had heard strong GUS
picions expressed, and was willing to give
the committee privately the names OF
some gentlemen who had made such express
sions.
Mr.. Hawley suggested that in view OF the
avowal of the witness, hat he had no per-
sonal knowledge on the subject and his re-
fusal to give names, and that the statement
OF his was mere suspicion, he ought to be
stricken from record. The action upon this
suggestion was reserved for secret session OF
the committee.
Witness referred TO the statement in his
former testimony that he desired TO consult
with certain persons with whom he had con-
versed on this subject before giving their
names to the committee, and said he had
since consulted two of them (members
of the House,, and they had both dis
claimed having any personal knowledge
of any improper acts on the part of the
journalists in question, and were unwilling
to have their names used in the matter.
The third party was out of town, and would
not return until next week; and, therefore,
the witness asked that his further examina-
ton be postponed until that time
Mr.. Hawley then, with the consent of the
other members of the committee, expressed
emphatically his hope that if any ybody in the
world knew Of any corrupt action on the part
of any member of Congress or of the press, in
connection with the matter under investiga-
tion, he would come forward and state it, or
forever hold his peace, as the desire of the
committee was to make the investigation as
thorough as possible. Adjourned to Friday.
