DENVER, September 1.-THE Repuh-
lean State Convention in session at Colo
RADIO Springs. after several adjournments,
pending a report of the committee on
credentials, re-assembled at ! o'clock this
evening. The committee made majority
and minority reports, which gave rise to
an exciting debate which is still in
progress. Several counties, including
this (Arapahoe), sent eontesting delega-
tons to the State Convention. These are
supposed to favor the reelection of n. P.
Hill, to the United States Senate and
those opposed. Representatives .of the
Hill faction on the committee on ere
dentials presented a minority report. The
factional contest is the most bitter known
in the political history of Colorado.

Grave Senators Inquiring Into
Indian Affairs.
The Proposed Line of Their
Investigations.
A Bitter Fight Among Colo
RADIO Republicans.
Investigating Indlan Affairs.


CHICAGO, September ll.-Senators
Dawes, of Massachusetts, and Angus
Cameron, of Wisconsin, are here, where
they will meet Senator John F. Morgan,
of Alabama. The gentlemen are a sub
committee of the Senate committee on
Indian affairs, of which Senator Dawes is
chairman. At the session of Congress
recently closed they were authorized to
investigate the condition of the Indians in
the West, and advise and report a plan
for settling the troubles among those
wards of the Government. They will
leave tomorrow at neon for San Francisco
whence they go to Round Valley reserva-
ton. This is in Northern California.
The reservation has been a never ceasing
source of trouble on account of the en-
croachments by whites. Having made an
Investigation at Round Valley the ON
mittee will go TO Southern California and
look into the Mission Indian troubles.
Mission Indians have nc. reservation. but
have squatted on Government lands, and
are inextricably mixed with the whites.
They were formerly wards of the Mexican
Government, and are better educated than
other tribes of their species. This, how
ever, does not seem to have prevented the
troubles between them and the whites
calling for Government inquiry. Senator
Cameron said he thought it would take
about four weeks to get through with the
Round Valley and Mission tribes. The
committee will then return East for a
little rest and to cast their votes for
President, and set out again in November
for an extensive inspection of affairs in
the Indian Territory. 1t is here that
Oklahoma Payne has been giving the
Government soldiers trouble. There are
five civilized tribes here which have their
own legislatures, newspapers and other
evidences of higher civilization. They
have in some way leased large tracts of
land given them by Government for their
own use to cattlemen. Senator Cameron
says it was %clearely in violation Of the
understanding with the United States
Government for them to do it, but IN
some cases they secured the assent of the
Interior Department. The Indians are
now complaining of abusees which have
grown out of the leases. They receive n
rental, said Senator Dawes. 'of M
thing like 500, 600 a year. They, there
fore, ought to be satisfied, but they are
not. Our business will be to ascertain
how these leases We're secured, whether it
is the best thing for the Indians, and, if
not, what should be done

TRAGIC COMEDY.
Is John Mccullough Suffering
From Mental Troubles
Or Convivial Contact With the
Flowing Bowl
An Explanation Which Leaves
Some Doubt Behind.
A gragedian's Sad Plight.

New YORK, Septembcrll.-At Coney
Island last evening a strange man was
discovered attempting to walk the trestle
work of the Marine railway from Man
haitian to Brighton Beach. The owner
put him aboard a train when the man was
recognized as John Mccullough. A
watch was kept on him as it was feared
he would attempt to commit suicide.
After the train started Mccullough tried
to jump off, but was prevented. On ar
rival at Brighton Beach he complained of
his head and the fearful heat of the past
few days. 1t was evident that the emf
nent actor was suffering terribly and a
close watch was kept over him until he
reached his friends in New York, who
had been notified Of his condition. 1t
seems that Mccullough says he is followed
by men who want to kill him and he
keeps lodging imaginary foes constantly.
John Mccullough, who is reported to
have been Frustrated at Manhattan
Beach yesterday, is said by his friends to
be all right to-day at his hotel in this city.
The Mail and Express, however, says he
is confined to his bed and his physicians
refuse to state what is his malady.

favorably with last emigrants. They
were of all ages. Many women were
sweltering in Winter ulsters that reached
to their feet. One man wore a comforter
around his neck. The party is under the
charge of Elder D. Bennett. There are
