Indian Items.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S0.--Ia response
to the senate resolution calling for in
formation in respect to the proposed
opening of oklohama lands to settle
ment, the secretary of the interior says
while the lands retain their present
status they will continue to be source
of trouble. He can see nosgood reason
why immense tracts of unoccupied
lands shall be held for Indians
to roam over, as they are desirable
for settlement, but until the existing
state of things has been changed by
agreement with the Indians the integ-
rity of the government should be MAIN
tained. Memorials from Indians pro-
testing against opening the lands to set
tlement accompany the communication.

hiarsIialI Matters,

MARSHALL, Jan. 30.-[Speclal. THE
b all and supper given at the Capital
hotel last night, by the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, Garfield divis-
ion No. 2l9, was one Of the most enjoy
able social events of the season. The
large dining room was handsomely and
appropriately decorated, and the gal
liant knights of the throttle, with their
wives and sweethearts, tripped
the light fantastic till morning.
An elegant supper was served, TO which
it is useless to say all did ample justice.
Not the least interesting feature of the
evenings entertainment was the rattle
OF an elegant tidy and beautiful satin
hand-painted pincushion. A good sum
was realized from them and contributed
to the division. The tidy was won by
John Nichols and the pincushion by
Johnny Moran, who says he'll stick TO II
TO the last. Many ladies and gentlemen
of the city, not members of the brother.
hood, were present and took part in the
pleasures OF the evening.
Rev, ID. w. j. Nuthall, pastor of Tho
Baptist church, died last night and vii
be buried this evening. He was mar
of superior ability, much beloved by hi
people. He leaves wife and child Il

A Conforence an Flnnnoe.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.--A conference
was held 1.-THE treasury department to-
day on the general question of the busi-
ness prospects of the country as affected
by the alleged depression OF silver.
There were present Secretary McCul-
loch, Treasurer Wyman, Assistant
Treasurer Acton, of New York; Me ssrs.
Dowd, George s. Coe and Yer
milyea, bankers, of New York. The
secretary said in referring to the con-
ference that the views of all were in
harmony on the general question; that
the state and national finances does not
call for any change in the present pol
icy OF the administration.
"There is no cause" he said, "to ap.
prehend any interruption in the gen
eral business prosperity of the country
nor anything TO justify the depreciation
in tho value OF silver certificates

business upon which the ..Tallapoosa
was O eugaged at the time OF her loss,
says size was then on her customary
freight ng cruise, but had been at times
used to enable the secretary of the navy
to visit naval stations or vessels or the
president to inspect ships or sQuadrons.
"The Dispatch and the Talla-
poosa," says the secretary, "while rea-
sonably serving the purpose indicated,
are not the most suitable vessels. They
should be replaced by other and newer
ships whenever the construction of a
navy, in accordance with modern re-
quirements has sufficiently progressed.
The practice OF other naval powers may
afford proper guide TO cur action. All
maintain as part of their navy not only
transports, dispatch steamers and ton
ders, but also, vessels used by high ma
val officers and government officials ON

accused will not bo convicted, as
the jury is regarded as
being fixed. The States newspaper
says: "But little attention was paid TO

the accused or the jury. One of the

ST.. LOUIS, Jan. 3O.--A Little Rock,

Mellon was hanged at Corning, Clay
county, this morning, for the murder of
Franklin Hale, whom he killed on May
10, 1881. The doomed man met his fate
bravely, preserving firm demeanor on
the scafiold. He asserted his innocence
to the last. The execution was wit
messed by 1000 people.

in favor of the position of the govern
ment's liability, in case there are no
treaty funds or annuities due Indians.
MIR. George cited precedents and ar
gued that the whole theory and prac-
tice of legislation on this
subject had committed the
government to the ultimate pay
ment Of Indian depreciation claims.
He said that for years eastern represen-
tatives had voted money from the treas
ury in payment OF claims of
that character along their own
border, and in view of that
historical fact he regarded it as unjust,
now that the depredations on the bor-
der are removed from their immediate
vicinity, to deny through their more
numerous representation the modern
claims of western sections.
