THE ORONIN INQUEST.
Sulliyans Transactions With, Lester &
i Co, Brokers Other Testimony.

CHICAGO, June en- the Cronin inquest
today J. W. Moore, cashier of John B.
Lester & Co., brokers, testified that be-
tween June 1, 1882, and April /, 1888,
Alexander Sullivan paid to the firm on
transactions with the firm the sum Of
S133, 800; that during the same period he
drew out Sl15,3l8 in checks and stock
worth S14, OOO showing net loss of about
81, 500. One of Lester & Co.'s bookkeepers
was put on the stand and proceeded to
read an abstract of the transaction in
stocks which Sullivan had with the firm
during the period mentioned. The list
was quite long and not all read.
Captain Thomas O'Connor, member of
the Gamma Gael, said that in 1855 man
lived in Philadelphia. but he could not re-
member his name The man told him that
some men were going across the water and
that the chances were that he the wit
ness) would be called on to go. O'Connor
mentioned this to his friend, DR.. Cronin,
who advised him not to go; that there
were enough good Irishmen behind Eng
lish bars who had been given away rs soon
as they arrived and that he did not believe
in the dynamite policy. The stranger
saw the witness in DR.. Cronin's company
and did not come to see him again.
The only notable witness Of the day was
John Z. Beggs, lawyer, senior guardian
of camp No. 90 Clan-na-GaeL Mr.. Beggs
was cross-examined in a way that for
freedom and scope could scarcely be sur
passed, He testified that 2. o. Sullivan IS
member OF camp No. 20. Other than TINS
the relevancy of the bulk of witness tes-
timony was not apparent at this stage OF
proceedings Witness declared himself a
friend of Alex Sullivan.

IN COURSE OF COMPROMISE.
The Stewart VIII Case to be Settled
Startling Developments.

NEW YORK, June G.-The Stewart will
case is in course of compromise. There is
not the least probability that anything
more will be heard Of the case in a court
room.
The expenses entailed by the contest
have so far amounted to over half mil
lion dollars. The great question now is
how much will Judge Hilton pay to have
the case choked off. The Slit was brought
in reality for an accounting of his man.
agement of the estate of A. 7. Stewart.
BY Mr.. Stewards will ne received s., OOO, 0OO
Four days after Mr.. Stewards death in
consideration OF that legacy he acquired
from Mrs Stewart transfer to himself of
Mr.. Stewards interest-about 90 per cent
in the business of A. T. Stewart g. Co.
This was in 1876. In the next nine years
he acquired the Stewart building, various
book stocks and other property that had
been Mrs. Stewards and at her death the
accounts he kept for her showed her in his
debt about 81, 100000. Figuring from two
distinct bases Judge Hilton passed from
an ordinary successful attorney in 1876 to
the possession of from sll, 100000 to So
000, coo with no allowance for increase by
investment or otherwise. By 1856, when
Mrs. Stewart died the testimony
Mrs. Stewart was astounding. 1t was
proven without contradiction that he rare
~ allowed her out of his sight; that she
signed all sorts Of documents at his bid
ding; that he charged her interest on her
draft at per cent until the legal rate be-
came per cent and then full rates until
the interest charges against her and to his
credit were enormous, and that goods from
the store for her use were charged at ex-
cessive figures. Several witnesses testified
to Mrs Stewart having repeatedly declar-
ed that she had given Judge Hilton only
power Of attorney to manage her business
Tor her and had never intended to tranfer
the property to him, but amazing as was
this testimony, the great surprise in the
case came when the contestants having
finished, Judg Hilton's lawyers restated
their case without a syllable of testi-

THE INDIANS, COUNCIL.

PURCELL, l. T., June 6.-The second
days session of the grand council of the
Indian Territory tribes transacted no bust
ness of importance The most interesting
feature was speech from Cherokee Dele
gate Harvey W. c. Shelton, in which he
advised the wild tribesto be good and in
dustrious Indiaps. cultivate their fields
and send their children to school. 1.-The
they will not compel us to dispose of our
lands against our will" said the
speaker. "The Cherokees do not wish to
dispose of any part of their land; neither
do they wish their lands to be allotted to
them in seyeralty. If this were to be done
it would only be a short time until the In
dians were cheated out of their homes by
INSCRIPTIONS white traders; then the poor
Cherokees would be set adrift in the great
world totally unfit for the viccissitudes of
life that even educated white men some
times can not endure. What then would
become of the poor Cherokees, many Of
whom could not speak the English Ian
guage?"
The speaker said that the Cherokees
were the most prosperous Indian nation
on earth. Everybody had plenty; there
4, 900 Cherokee children were being edu-
Gated. All this prosperity was due to
their land system. The Cherokees were
sorry the Creeks had been weak enough to
sell the Oklahoma country to the govern
ment By that action Of the Greeks dis
turbing element had been precipitated
into the Indian nation, and this element
would prove to be a source of everlasting
trouble to the tribes of the Indian nation.
At the conclusion of Skeletons speech
the council adjourned till tomorrow morn
ing.
The wild tribes when present in council
are a very diplomatic set of red skins, but
when they reach their several camp fires
their tongues are loosened and their talk
makes interesting reading. A squaw man
who speaks various Indian languages says
the wild tribes look upon the invasion of
Oklahoma as the firststep of a government
policy looking toward the opening of the
entire Indian territory to settlement.
The .Poncas in discussing this around
their camp fire last night worked them
selves into frenzy of excitement. Chief
White Eagle talked of getting up an In
dian scare among the Oklahoma settlers,
so that they would petition the Great
Father in Washington to let the Indians
remain at peaceable possession of their
lands
