was started in Albany last week that Senator
Gibbs would report bill making the Office of Cor

to city paper, and the report was carried to Mr.,
Wood that such bill had been introduced. He at
once telegraphed to Senator Jacobs requesting that
action the bill be postponed in order that he and
others could be heard in opposition to it. No such
bill had been introduced, but Senator Jacobs after
consultation with Mr.. Gibbs fol the sake Of jest
sent reply 10 Mr.. Wood that Mr.. Gibbs was acting
very selfshly about the matter declaring that the
bill should be rushed through at once without any
public hearing, and he thought perhaps some other
Senator might have more influence Win the chair-
man of the Committee on CltieS
Mr. Wood then telegTaphed 10 Senator Murphy

consultation with Mr.. Jacobs and MT. Gibbs re-
piled that Gibbs was determined to rush
the thing through at any cost, and
that he refused 10 listen TO Murphy, but perhaps
Senator Campbell could secure delay. Mr. Wood
then sought by telegraph the influence of MI Camp
bell but that Senator replied that the outlook was
that Gibbs in his mad haste would rush the bill
through that day. He advised Wood TO take the
first train for Albany, or else try Senator Cullen,
who was q member of the Committee on Cities.

TEXAS CLAIMING INDIAN LANDS.
A SCHEME TO OBTAIN CONTROL or PORTION OF
THE INDIAN TERRITORY.
(BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l

THE INDIAN TERRITORY.
fpr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
WASHINGTON, March 23.-The State OF Texas Is
irving to extend her boundaries so as to take In
about 24OO square miles of the fertile lands IN the
Indian Territory These lands lie between the
north fork and the south fork of the Red RIVER
and IN some maps of the State of Texas are in
cluded and described as Greer County" The
public lands of Texas belong to that State and 1t
appears thai scrip has been issued by the State for
a greater quantity of public land than
can be found within her present boun-
diaries. Hence this attempt to extend
the latter at the expense of the Indian tribes which
own the lands in the Indian Territory. Two years
ago the Texas Legislature authorized the Governor
TO appoint a commission to act i'll conjunction with
a like commission on the part of the United states
TO re-survey the northern boundary OF the State
The House Committee on Territories has reported
favorably bill creating commission to act with
the one on the part of Texas.
OF course, it is hoped by the friends OF the Dill
that the Joint commission will report in favor
of the claims set up by the state, out IeSt Uney
should be disappointed Senator Maxey has
introduced bill giving the consent OF the Unlted
States to the state of Texas to extend her northern
bonndary TO the north fork of the Red River. The
civilized tribes of Indians in the Indian Territory
are greatly exercised on account of this attempt by
Texas TO obtain without compensation lands which
belong to them under treaties made long before
Texas was annexed to the United States, and they
have led strong protests against the proposed leg
isation. The Interior Department has also stood
by the Indian tribes IN resisting the pre-
tensions of Texas. The controversy DC
gan in 1858. and since that time Texas
has sought in various TO assert legislative ana
judicial jurisdiction over the disputed leITtory.
A State court of Texas only few months ago
held that the assessment and collection of taxes on
property in Greer County" by the Texas oficiaIs
was legal, The question is interesting and i'm
portanf one and ought not TO be disposed OF by
Congress without a more critical Investigation than
ii seeing thus far to have received.
