INDIAN APPROPRIATIONS.
Mr.. Plumb Criticises the Commissions
Influence Of the Catholics.

Mr.. Plumb Criticises the Commissioner
Influence of the Catholics.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-The Senate to-
day proceeded to consideration Of the Indian
appropriation bill. A colloquy took place
between Messrs. Plumb and Bate in regard
to the administration of the office of Com
missioner of Indian Affairs, the former
asserting that the condition of things in
Indian Territory was worse now than it
had been for many years; that
there never was time when
the trader so dominated tho Indian
that the Indian was brought SO much in
debt by the action of the traders; and when
so much liquor was sold; and when the
commissioner had no experience, was ad-
vanced in years and was unequal to the
position.
Mr.. Bate defended tho character, ability,
honesty ami efficiency of the commissioner,
and challenged the Senator from Kansas to
prove his assertion, which Mr.. Plumb
promised to do.
INFLUENCE OF THE CATHOLICS.
MIR. Blair said he had seen it stated in the
newspapers that the Catholic church had
an undue influence in the matter of Indian
schools on the reservations, and he asked
Mr.. Dawes what truth there was in such
statements.
Mr.. Dawes replied that the Interior
Department made contracts with associa-
tions or individuals for the education of
certain number of Indian scholars, some at
S108 and some at Sl5S per annum and that
there had been a good deal of complaint
that the Catholic denomination got a pre-
dominant share Of these scholars. He at
tributed this, however, not to any special
favor, but to the fact that the Catholic
church had bureau in Washington whose
duty 1t was to look out for opportunities to
make contracts for the education of Indian
children. Finally the bill was passed and
the Senate adjourned to Monday.

BANKER RAwsoN's WIFE SHOOTS
Her Husbands Counsel Probably Fa-

Her Husbands Counsel Probably Fa-
tally Wounded in Court.
CHICAGO, June la tremendous sensa-
ton occurred in Judge Jameson's court
shortly after 10 o'clock this morning while
the docket was being called. Mrs. Meckie
Rawson was apparently waiting for the
divorce case of her husband, Banker Raw
son, to be called. Col. II. G.. Whitney, her
husbands attorney, was sitting at a side
table writing, when the court was suddenly
startled to hear pistol, and Col. Whitney
at once disappeared under the table.
FOUR MORE SHOTS.
The shot was followed by four moro in
rapid succession, and Mrs. Rawson was seen
pursuing Mr.. Whitney with a Smith g.
Yves on 80 calibre revolver. Mrs. Rawson
succeeded in emptying her revolver at Mr..
Whitney before she could be captured.
Two of the balls hit the lawyer, one taking
effect below the groin and the other in the
left leg. The wound near the right groin
will probably prove fatal Judge Jameson
at once ordered Mrs. Rawson's arrest, and
she was Immediately taken to Jail.
BELIEVED TO BE INSANE.
Mr.. Viii ney's wounds were dressed and
he was taken to his hone in a carriage,
refusinq 70 20 on a stretcher When the
officers arrived at the Jail with the pris-
oner, Mrs. Rawson had every appearance
of being an insane woman. Her eyes were
red and bloodshot. and she complained OF
being cold and faint. As soon as the search
had been completed, she became more com
posed. The jail officers refused to allow
reporters to see her. IL is stood that
Mrs. Rawson has been in desperate
state of MUD since the appellate court yes
terdny refused her solicitors fees and said
in passing upon merits of her impend-
ing aivorcs suit shat the testimony was
overwhelnihg against her. 1t is under
stood that Mr.. Rawson claims that Lawyer
Whitney trumped up all the testimony
which went 20 show that she had been
guilty of iuf1elity 10 her husband.
