Can Indian Lands Be Leasedp


WASHINGTON, December %. The
Senate committee on Indian affairs on
January 6, will begin an investigation
into the leasing of lands in Indian Terri
tory and on the Crow reservation by In
dams to cattlemen. A number of prom
inent cattlemen and Indian Chiefs will be
subpenaed to appear before the commit
tee. One section of the Revised Statutes
declares that the Indian tribes have no
authority to lease their lands. The sue
ceeding section allows herders the pryi-
lege of driving their cattle over the reser-
walton upon obtaining the consent of the
Indians and Government. The cattle
men construe the latter section as meaning
they may lease lands and under the con-
struction nearly all the Crow reservation
in Montana and the Quapaw Cheyenne
and Arapahoe reservations in the Indian
Territory have been leased for periods Of
five to ten years at from two to twelve
cents per acre per annum. In the Cher
okee strip, also in Indian Territory, nine
cattlemen have the exclusive control Of
six million acres at an annual rental Of
$40, 900. ZFhe object OF the investigation
is 10 enable Congress to take intelligent
action on the subject if additional legisla'
ton is deemed necessary.

 Much Property is Destroyed and
 a Man Dies From Fright.
 BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. 11.-A fire broke out this afternoon in the furniture factory of D. Wolfson & Co.,, situated on the corner of Cross and Chestnut streets, and in g short time the entire building was enveloped in flames Many of the one hundred and fifty men employed in the building had narrow escapes The fire soon spread to the houses on the opposite side of Cross street, the walls of the factory building at the same time collapsing. The fremen directed their at tention to the Cross street dwelling and after hard work succeeded in checking the flames, but not until the window doors and eornices of seven houses had been burned. In the meantime the dwellings on Chestnut and Ridgeley streets had taken fire and the entire fire department of the city was on the ground doing all in their power to stay the flames which were being famed by stiff breeze from the southwest. The streets in the neighborhood were blocked with household effects of every description that had hastily been removed from the burning buildings. Finally after the partial destruc jon of twelve houses on Ridgeley street and three on Chestnut street, making a total of twenty-two dwellings, all occupied by poor people, the fire was con trolled. The furniture factory is total wreck and much of the contents were also burned, including new engine and boiler valued at s2O,000. D. Wolfson & Sons loss is placed at $120, ,000, insurance $26, 800. The losses on surround ing property will aggregate $3O,O00, which is fully insured. Captain Houek of Engine No. 7 was badly burned and fireman of the same company was overcome by the heat. Frederick Roeder, an alderman living on Cross street, was sick abed when the fire broke out. The other inmates of the house became panie-stricken and fled, leaving him. When they returned he was dead, having probably died from fright

A Scheme To Cover The Distance
 Between Boston And New York In
 Three And A Half Hours.
 BOSTON, Sept. 1 IA meeting of New York and New England capitalists and rail road men interested in rapid transit between New York and Boston was held at the Mei- onaon this afternoon. It was shown by sev- era1 engineers that it is practicable to estab- fish line that carry passengers over the one hundred and ninety miles between Gotham and the Hub in about three and one half hours, enabling person to go from one city to the other, do his business and return n one day. It is claimed that such a road can be constructed for less than S25, 100000 and when once built it is thought the patronage will be ex- tensiye enough to pay the interest on double that amount of money. Ex-Mayor Palmer of Boston, who presided, William Roach, a practical engineer, Hon. Joseph R. Bodwell of Hallowen and others advocated the scheme and letters were read from Payson Tucker, general manager of the Eastern and Maine Central railroad, Jonathan Dwight of New York, Postmaster Tobey of Boston and others also favoring it. A series of resolu- tions was adopted setting forth the advan- tage of the road and pledging the best efforts of those present and those they represent towards it's prompt completion.

 Female Pensioners.

He would represent that he was a government officer, assert that she had pro- cured the pension through fraud, place her under arrest and compel her to accompany him on the next train which invariably left in a short time His apparent. destination would be Washington, D. C., but he would stop at some large city and compel the pris- oner to occupy the same room with him in a hotel. The next day he would inform the victim that upon examining the papers he had found as the fraud was not extensive he would release her and give her sufficient money to return home, but would keep the balance until he had consulted the govern ment authorities.
