Sale than Ever.

TAHLEoUAH, 1. T., August THE pros
poets for the success of the Cherokee COM
mission are Frightening. Late returns

of treaty with the United States govern
ment by the terms of which the govern
ment may turn the strip over to the Arap-
ahoes and Cheyennes for a reservation

land.
Interviews with prominent Chorokees
indicate that they would rather sell the
land for 81 % to the government than for
40 cents and turn it over to their erstwhile
apan,iac

scare of several hours caused by a panic
in the local money market. For several
weeks rumors have been current here of a
stringency in the money market. One
morning a report reached the treasurer of
a Catholic institution that q panic was
threatened. He promptly warned the other
Catholic institutions, and within two
hours, it is said, checks for the full
amount of all deposits were pre-
scented at the banks by the
officials of the various churches, converts
and academies with demand for payment.
These demands created CONSERVATION in
more than one quarter for the amounts
were by no means small. In several in
stances the deposits reached 1000. The
run made a great furry but the bank
officials hustled around and scraped the
cash together Before the close of bank
ing hours over $4,000 had been paid out
and the institutions had their money
under private lock and key. Money is now
little easier but bank officials are looking
for the tipster who started the run upon
