New YORK, November 14.-The World
this evening says: Suit has been brought
against Mayor William r. Grace by Julian
T. Davies, receiver OF Grant & Ward, to re-
cover $500 0 which the receiver says the
books show Mayor Grace to have obtained
through fictitious contracts he had with
Ferdinand Ward. The complaint in the

Mayor Grace individually, has been served,
and the Mayor has until the oath inst. to
answer. It was ascertained that the sum
sued for includes the money that passed
to Mayor Grace through Edward H. To-
bey's hands. Mayor Grace has repeatedly
denied that he had any interest in Tobey's
transactions with Ward, and it has been
said that he so testified before the United
States Grand Jury which Indicted Warner
and Tobey, but there are checks in the
hands OF Receiver Davies, drawn by Ward,
in favor of Tobey, which show by Mr..
Grace's endorsement that the money went
to him.

Fat Stock Exhibition.

CHICAGO, November 13.-The fat stock
exhibition now in progress here is so far
the most successful yet held. The exhibits
are very fine and the attendance unusually
large. There was quite a flutter among
stockmen when it became known that the
grand sweepstakes had been taken by the
thoroughbred 2.year-old Hereford. NO
animal SO young as that ha heretofore
taken the sweepstakes, and only once
before has it been taken by a thoroughbred.
The Hereford men now feel that their
rlaims for that breed are indicated.

was an increase Of $195, 745. The prin-
cipal increase was in cigars, cigarettes and
spirits distilled from grain. The cost OF

will be collected during the current year,
from the various sources OF internal reve-
nue.. In making this estimate Comm1s'

raised by the presence of q new source OF

Smart Indians.

New YORK, November IA Washing.
ton special to the Sun says: One oil the
most striking passages in the annual report
OF commissioner J. D. Atkins, Just printed.
is about the working of an Indian landed
aristocracy under the present tribal sys-
tenn OF holding reservations. It appears
that the chief cultivation of tribal lands
done by a few rich and enterprising red
men, who
POCKET L THE PROCEEDS
and pay no rent to the tribe as a whole,
OF course their plea is that if n other
members of the tribe choose to till the
tribal lands they are at liberty to do so:
but it appears that in Indian territory,
where some very large aggregate crops are
raised on lands held in common bv partly
civilized tribes, the Weather and more in
fuential tribes have monopolized the best
lands and much more than would be their
share under an equal division in severalty.
Commissioner Atkins points out that the
present system OF land tenure among red
men Ii working very badly, and that the
Government ought to intervene, and divide
the land held in Indian Territory into lots
OF 16O acres each for each head of a FAM
lily, and half as much for each child. The
general impression derived from Commits
Atkins report is that the present
of Indian land holding is very i'm
and ~unwise, and hat Congress
should promptly substitute one which
be better for both the red man and
the white.
