TOWNSITES IN OKLAHOMA.
Secretary Mobiles Version Of the Applications
of Certain Corporations.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-Secretary Noble
to-day rendered 4 decision relative to town
sites in Oklahoma. The secretary of the
interior to the commissioner of the
general land office, says: Il am
in receipt of your communication of
the 18th instant, relative to the ap-
plication of the Capitol Townsite and I'M
provement company asking permission to
locate and enter certain lands in the
Guthrie and Kingfisher land districts for
townsites in the Indian territory, said APP
plication having been referred by the de-
partment to your offices.
II concur in the views expressed by you
in your said communication that there is
no authority to grant the applications of
the Oklahoma Capitol City TOwnsite and
Improvement company to enter lands as
now presented; and / am also of opinion
that the provisions of the act of March 4,
1889, providing for entries of lands for
townsites under Sections 237S and 1888 of
the revised statutes, do not apply to cor
porations of this character. Although the
President might have the power to reserve
lands for townsite purposes under section
1880, of the revised statutes such reserva-
ton could not be made for the benefit of a
corporation of this character, but would be
disposal of in the manner now provided By
law

In the New Canaan.

ARKANSAS CITY, April 19-The change OF
date for crossing the Cherokee strip line by
the Oklahoma settlers from the 18th Ito
day. to yesterday, the 18th, made the num-
Der of wagons of the first batch to cross the
line smaller than it would otherwise have
been. Succeeding events show the change
to have been wise one.
Despite the solid five miles of wagons
which went into the strip yesterday morn
ing, the influx during the rest Of the day
was enormous. The word that the move
ment would occur to- day had become wide
spread to the north, and many settlers who
otherwise would have been here for the
start, remained in their camps until the
afternoon of yesterday. Late in the day
there continued to be almost a continuous
stream of wagons on Summit street. Most
of the afternoon arrivals camped here last
night and proceeded on their way this
morning. Only a few entered the strip,
for there is but one stream between here
and Salt Greek fork fit to camp on, and that
is only five miles from the north line Of the

Great Self Denial.

Especial to THE HERAID-Examiner- Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-Colonel Nicho-
las NJ. Bell, the popular superintendent of
foreign mails, has resigned.
He has made VOW with his conscience
to put in the bank every dollar he has re-
ceived as salary from the 4th of March
last to the time of his removal, with the
purpose of contributing the principal and
interest in 1892 to the campaign fund of the
Democratic national committee
The salary is $1,000 per year, or about ten
dollars for every working day, so that Col.
Bell has already sailed down over $3.50.
He has some property, so that he is not de-
pending upon his salary for substance:
Congressman Wade, of Missouri. was
somewhat taken aback when he learned of
Colonel Bells plan. They are from the
same state, and are warm personal friends,
and Mr.. Wade had intended to recommend
Bells retention. But this was too much
for him, and he told the genial colonel that
he would be obliged to urge his removal for
offensive partisanship.

THE BIDS TOO HIGH.
The ArmOred Coast Defense Vessel Contract
Not Awarded.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The board of
bureau officers which has been considering
the proposals received for building the
armored coast defense vessel, has com
pleted its work and reported to the secre-
tary OF the navy. 1t is understood that the
board finds that it is not possible to build
the vessel under the lowest bid, 81, 614, 900,
and comply with the terms of the act of
Congress which fixes the total cost of
naval rams, batteries and other naval
structures TO be built under its authorize
ton at S2,000,0OO. Out of this total
must come the armor for the coast defense
vessel. which is not to be furnished by the
contractor, and which will cost $3.50, 900,
anchors, boats, etc, and sumbarine boat,
for which proposals were received some
months ago. Altogether there would be a
deficit of about one hundred thousand
if the lowest bid for, building this
powerful vessel were accepted The
next move of the department, if the
report is accepted by Secretary
Tracy, will be to re-advertise TO! propos-
ais, and if that fails is secure a reduction,
then to appeal to Congress for an increase
in the limits of the total cost.

Equipping the Militia.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The war depart
ment is in receipt daily of acquisitions for
ordnance and quartermaster's stores for
the equipment of the militia under the
annual appropriations of 500, 900. In the
territories particularly there are signs of
activity among the militia forces. The old
organization are gradually changing their
equipment to conform to that of the regu-
lar army.
It is thought there will be fully $4,000
militiamen in New York on the occasion of
the centennial celebration. This is thought
significant of the wonderful efficiency of
the present organization tos make it posi-
bic to concentrate an army of well drilled,
well equipped soldiers within a day at
almost any of the important cities of the
Atlantic coast. With forty-eight hours for
preparation an army of nearly seventy five
thousand soldiers could be gathered.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The court mar

George M. Book, of the navy, has concluded
its labors, and the record is now in the
hands O., Judge Advocate General Remey.
1t will be remembered that Lieutenant
Commander Book left his ship, the Pinta,
at Sitka, Alaska, and proceeded to this city
without orders from the navy department.
His defense was that the department paid
no attention to his letters, which showed
the machinery of the ship to be in disabled
condition, and he came here in person to
explain. Since his arrival the ship has
been ordered to San Francisco for repairs
Governor Swineford, of Alaska, and Max

A Terrible Accident.

DENVER, April IA Montrose, Col
orado, special says: A fatal accident oc-
Cured on the Rio Grande at o'clock this
morning. While the Salt Lake express was
running through the Black canon huge
landslide came tearing down the side of
the canon, several immense boulders strik-
ing the engine and throwing and hurting it
down 30-foot embankment to the Gun
nison river. The engine in its descent
turned over several times, crushing
the fireman, William North, to death
Engineer Ryan was caught underneath
portion of the machinery and pinioned to
the bed of the river and nearly drowned
before he was rescued. He is seriously
bruised internally. None of the coaches
were thrown from the track, and on &C
count of the roaring waters it was some
minutes before the passengers and crew
knew of the accident.
The train was ascending the cafion at
the usual speed, and it is supposed the jar
of the train started some loose rocks from
the top of the canon several hundred feet
above; and these rolling down started
others and increased in size. When they
struck the unfortunate engine they had be-
come tremendous slide Of huge boulders
and rocks.

Waiting the Trial Trip.

WASHINGTON, April 19.-The new cruiser
Charleston was to have started from San
Francisco on her trial trip to-day. There
is some anxiety felt at the navy depart
ment as to the result of the Charleston IS
trial as the requirement in the matter of
horse power is very severe. Under the
contract stipulations the engines must show
a 1000 indicated power for four consecutive
hours, which is expected to result in over
eighteen knots speed.
Reports have reached the department
that the celebrated Japanese cruiser Mani
Charleston, succeeded in reaching this
speed for short distance only after she
had been given eighteen separate trials, but
it is hoped the Charleston is an improve
ment upon her prototype.

Jones, of Kansas, and Needles, of Indian
territory, who are in authority over Indian
territory and Oklahoma announce that
they have instructed their deputies to con-
fscate all liquors brought into the territory.
These instructions are based on the ruling
Of the attorney general that Oklahoma is
within the limits of Indian territory
and the laws pertaining to the sale
of intoxicating liquors within the territory.
AS it is impossible to get liquor into Okla
homa without passing through the Indian
territory, and as the laws against bringing
liquor into any part of the Indian territory
are very strict, those thinking of going into
the territory will save themselves much ex-
pense and trouble by abandoning their
scheme.
Eight companies of infantry and four of
cavalry will go into the territory to assist
in the enforcing Of the laws.
