Trouble in the New Country,
WASHINGTON, April ls.-It is very ap.
parent here that officers OF the Army are
filled with the liyeliest apprehension re.
gardlng the opening Of Oklahoma,
The Secretary OF War has authorized
the statement that the Government is
fully aware Of the situation and has
arranged to take all proper steps TO pre-
vent trouble, tis known that the SUBJ
ject has formed the main topic for dis,
cussion at recent Cabinet meetings and
that tho Attorney General has been
called upon to decide the question as to
the authority OF the War Department TO
act In case OF strife, bloodshed or Yio-
lenCe In the newly opened country,
The instructions sent TO tue command
ant Of the troops in Oklahoma us a re.
suit OF the opinion rendered by the
Attorney General were extremely guard
ed. They arc understood to direct the
army officers to assist In the maintenance
ol law, but to carefully observe the reg
ulations defining their authority, and
leave arrests for violations TO the mar
shals, The President might, in case OF
serious disturbance, declare marshal law
over the territory, but this could not be
done in advance ola breach Of the peace,
and the machinery OF Government would,
it Is feared, be too slow moving TO meet
the great emergency which may arise.
The only army regulation on the subject
provides for interference by the troops
in an emergency only in case OF inter
ruption 10 the carriage OF the mail or
assaults upon Emitted States property,
but under q somewhat strained con.
struCtion itmay form the reason assigned
for the use OF troops to prevent or re.
