OUR SPECIAL WASHINGTON
CORRESPONDENCE.

N@-A41sIoN. u - -lGg s-ic1l-
Editor CHIEFTAIx:-NOw that
the act to organize the terrI.ory OF
Oklahoma and to establish courts
in the Indian Territory has passed
both houses of congress the gener-
al inquiry viii be, what are its
provisions, scope and intent.
Therefore 1t may be Of much in
terest to some of your readers to
receive what information they can
on these subjects. This may not
be so well done by an examination
OF the act as from the opinions and
declarations ofthose whose province
il was to advocate and aid in its
passage through congress, because
one may not be satisfied with his
opinion cf the matter and would
rather leave il to that Of those who
made the law and yet remember
or have recorded their understand
ing Ofthe purposes that were to be
served and their extent and mean
ing
II would not be wise or consist
ent with our interest to say that
the act violates any Of cur rights
when those who advocated Its pas
sage say that il does not, especial
ly those whose reputation is above
suspicion and have heretofore
proven themselves to be our best
friends.
While there may be some pro-
visions in the act that may prove
IN time to be Troublesome and vir-
taaily effect our interests as
seriously as 4 direct and intention
al violation Of treaty obligations,
yet it may not be entirely correct
that such has been done. Section
43 Of The act may be referred TO as
an illustration Of this position.
This section provides a way
whereby an Indian may become a
citizen Of the United States and
yet retain all rights and privileges
n his nation to which he vas for
msrly entitled. 1t IS simply as
offer to the Indian TO becoms a
citizen of the United States,
II he wants to, by providing a way
for that purpose. Much blame
may be attached to the temptOr
and the inducement may be con-
sidered a bribe offered to corrupt
the Indian but after all the con-
definaticn will be his for being a
traitor 10 his country and his peO-
pie.
There are other parts Of the a.,
which may be referred TO, but not
as aprOp0s IN their application to
such a feature Of the act. One is
il relation TO the improvements of
non-citizens and white citizens by
adoption, which, when in excess
Of one hundred and sixty. acres,
NAV to the extent Of that eScess
be sold TO a citizen Of the nation
of which the debtor is a resident
or an adopted citizen, and to such
person only. Or the excess may
be put into the hands of 4 receiver
and the rental go to the payment
If the judgment This arrange
ment is simply upon a eOntingen-
a.y, and, because it Is. it may not
be considered a direct infringe
Inent upon our rights.
No non-ciiizen being able under
our laws to own Improvements in
our naiIOn either by permission OF
engagement with any citizen by
reason Of nativity, treaty or adOp-
ton, the possibility Of such sale
CT rental is reduced 10 one chance
only-lhat Of the adopted citizen
This procedure, though wholly
dependent upon circumstances
that may never take place, the
question would arise in the pres
crce Ct AZ actual case Of the kind,

A MILK N DIET.
Mrs. Mary Ann RhOades, of Greenpoint, N. Y
Lives on One for Many Years.

Especial to THE HERALD-Exam1ner Dispatch. !
NEW YORK, March 26-Neighbors of Mrs.
Mary Ann Rhoades. a widow about fifty years
old, who lives at Greenpoint, say she has taken
no food except milk punches for the last nine or
ten years. Mrs. Keller, who lives In the same
house, says: II have lived in this house with
Mrs. RhoadeS for the last five years and during
that time l have been in her rooms and she in
mine every day. | can positively say she has
not eaten q morSel of substantial food in all that
time. Indeed, so far as L can remember, she has
not eaten anything for the last nine or ten years.
] have known her and her husband since they
came to Greenpoint about twelve years ago.
Her husband was drowned about ten years ago.
Soon after his death Mary Ann was taken with
throat trouble which became so serious that she
was advised to go to Bellevue hospital. AT the
hospital her throat trouble became so serious
that she was unable to eat anything. To keep
life in her they gave her milk punches. After
she had recovered and had returned to her
home she was still unable to swallow solid
food, although weeks had passed since the
operation. She has been continuing the milk
punches ever since. / have often seen her at
tempt to eat and every effort would almost
throw her into q SpaSm or faint. She has never
even drunk coffee in all this time. Her milk
punches are made of a quart of milk and 1C
cents worth of whisky. This is her breakfast
dinner, supper, taken a sip at a time"
A physician told Mrs. Rhoades that the opera
ton had affected the coats of her stomach an(
she might live ten years longer on milk punch
All of Mrs. RhoadeS' neighbors who were seer
told the same story about the milk punch diet
They spoke of her as a quiet hard, working
woman.

THE LEAD ORE DUTY
There is Great Hostility Against
its Retention.
FORFEITURE OF RAILROAD LANDS.
A Bill will Soon Be Reported for the Purpose
The Admission of Wyoming is Dis
cussed in the House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 26.-tSpecial
telegram to THE HBRALD.1lTh Republicans
of the ways and means committee were locked
up to-day, and only the representatives of
special interests were admitted, one at the
time, after careful inspection by the guard who
stood at the door. The sugar refiners are bring
ing tremendous pressure to bear to have the
margin between raw and refined sugars in
creased, and are insisting that they will be
driven out of business if the rates remain as
proposed. It was voted 6 to 2 to strike out the
proposed duty on hides. Messrs. Gear,
of Iowa, and Lafollette, Of Wisconsin,
were the only members who consistently
stuck by the duty. AS the news spread the
Massachusetts members burdened the wires
with messages to the shoemakers and tanners
of Essex and Plymouth counties. A formal
vote was taken in the committee placing raw
silk on the free list, and it was voted to pay a
bounty to domestic silk.
There are conflicting reports tonight regard
ing the duty on silver lead ore. 1t is the gen
eral expectation that it will be retained, but
there are those who say that it will
be stricken out at the demand of the
farming and smelling interests of Kansas
and Nebraska. The farmers are anxious
to promote friendly relations with Mexico so as
to find q market there for their pork and othel
products, and they are also DESTROYS of attract
ing various manufacturing enterprises employ
ing large numbers of people, so as to increase
the domestic market for their products.
The Republicans now talk of getting their bill
before the full committee on Friday, but it il
quite as likely to be next week, and no one car
predict when it will be reported to the House.

THE N SLUGGER
Sullivan is Anxious to Meet Jackson to Settle
Forever the Title TO Champion.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.
BOSTON, March 26.-With the temperance
of John Lawrence Sullivan among the Bos-
tonians there is a rival of interest in the great
fight between himself and Peter jackson. Your
correspondent found the big fellow at the
corner of fremont and Beacon street to-day
and the conversation soon took a pugilistic
turn. Sullivan himself preached the subject,
showing that he is anxious for a chance to con-
vince Peter Jackson that he is not in the same
class with the champion.
Now that l nave settled that Mississippi
trouble, 1 want to attend TO Jackson's claims to
the championship" id the indicated champ
ion. Il am anxious TO have one more battle
before L retire from the ring, and OF course
Jackson is the only man to be thought OF just
now. If the California Athletic club. or any
other club, will put up a purse OF s2O,OO0 Tor a
fight between Jackson and myself, l will meet
him in battle for the championship. 1 don't
care what the gloves are so long as they come
within the restrictions of the law. l will not
under any circumstances fight a ring
battle again. Hereafter all matches
made must conform to the law.
If ] had taken a friends advice, wouldn't have
had any trouble in Mississippi. I've spent
nearly all l won in that fight trying to get clear
of the law. I've heard lots of criticism about
naming such a high figure for a purse. 1t costs
me a great deal to train for a fight, and before l
get ready to enter the rlng, I've spent more
than ordinary purses amount to-. That woulo
leave me without any compensation for fight
ing. 1 consider my time worth something and
intend to have my figure.
For these reasons l shall demand $4,000 an(
shall stick to it. it is not worth that sum tC
the California Athletic club, it surely is no
worth less to me-
How much time do you want for training?'
asked the reporter.
Il haven't thought of that yet. I am il
fairly good condition for a CO." And Sullivan
complacently stroked his mustache. .'Iv,
been taking good care of myself lately, and i
wouldn't require much longer time to harder
my muscles. Salt water baths in New Yorl
have done me a world of good. Three months
or so would be ample time. If a match is ar
ranged l shall train as never before, for 1 an
satisfied that jackson will be no mean op7o
nent. and l must be in first class shape to win
1 am now willing to negotiate with the Califo
MIA Athletic club. Icouldn't do anything abou
q match while my sentence was hanging owe
me. think that is now settled, and ii the clu
officers want me to fight Jackson in their rooms
1 should like to hear from them"

f, Constituting the Anti-Chinese Law.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Herrmann, of Ore
ron, to-day reported to the House from the COM
nittee on Indian depreciation claims his bill to
provide for the adjudication and payment of
hese claims.
Quong Lee, q Chinese laundryman of Platts-
mouth. Neb.. asked the treasury department
whether he could send to China for his wife and
children. He says he intended to become a cit
zen of the United States and intimates he is
wealthy. In reply Assistant Secretary
richenor says his occupation as laundry
man does not exclude him from
class of laborers and that he cannot claim i'm
nunity for his relatives from the Chinese res
friction by reason OF mis- intention to become a
.itizen of the United States. Since the law pro-
iibits the admission of any Chinese TO citizen
;hip his wife and children cannot be admitted
ltherwiSe than upon the production of a certifi-
sate from the Chinese government declaring
hem persons other than laborers.
The. Republican members of the ways and
means committee spent the day in consultation
IN the tariff bill. Several delegations were
heard. The principal action of the day was the
reconsideration of the decision to tax hides and
hey have been restored to the free list. The
luty on iute bagging was increased.
Warrants to-day were sworn out against G. A.
Newton and J. J. Verser upon the charge of vio-
ating the civil service law in soliciting and re-
leiving contributions from government EN-
,loyees for political purposes. Newton and
Terser were president and treasurer of the
Old Dominion Republican League
