Lawiessness.
GUTHRIE. o. T.. Feb. 10.-The past forty
eight hours has witnessed scenes of wild excite
ment at FL Reno, which outrivals anything ever
seen in the territory. That town is built upon
the claim of Mai. Foreman, all the residents Of
the place having bought their lots OF him. SO
when Secretary Noble decided last Saturday
that Foremans title TO his claim was void 1t
left every piece of property III town at the
mercy of yandals. for nobody had any valid
title to tho property. The news of the decision
dI. not reach II keuO TIL Yesterday, but when
ii got there the town went Wild
First the ioaiers began jumping lots: then
others followed and soon all business was sus-
pended. The court officers rushed from their
Off ces and Joined the mob. which. by night
fall. had become wild anu unruly. Gov. Seay
telegraphed to sheriff and other officers to dis
perse the crowd and protect property, but
they did nothing. Affairs took more
serious turn. Houses we're brokenin into, people
were driven from their homes and everything
possible was done by the excited mob to drive
the orderly element out and give the jumpers
possession of all the property In the town.
Many telegraphed Gov. Seay that their prop
erty WAS beng destroyed and their lives ell
dangered and demanded that the troops be
sent to protect them.
SECRETARY NOBLE NOTIFIED.
bis deputies to the scene to protect the people
and Secretary Noble has been wired as to the
condition of affairs and Will doubtless order
troops from Fort Reno TO proceed to the scene
of disorders. The feeling at FL Reno Is run
ming very high and trouble is likely to occur at
any time, as tine lot jumpers have been joined
by the worst element IRON all over the country.
Gov. Seay SAYS the lives of the orderly people
and their property must be protected and has
issued orders accordingly.
The lot jumpers Will gain nothing In the end,
as the operty holders who have improved
their property will get their titles regardless OF
the possessl on now claimed by the jumpers.
Gov.Seayis in receipt OF the following dispatch
from Stanley, chairman OF the board OF trade
trustees: ''El Reno Is alive with lot jumpers; all
business suspended. Probate judge. county
clerk, sheriff and deputy marsEals have joined
the jumpers. No protection for honest holders.
Is your restraining order still in force? We
have no protection
The governor wired the following reply:
Tine restraining order is still i'll force. Warn
all persons to obey the laws. Tell the sheriff
to arrest all violators."
Information today is that the lot jumpers are
yet In possession. Gov. Seay has requested the
United States army officers at Fort Reno to
proceed to the scene OF the troubles.

No. IL was taken out yesterday.
The walls around the elevator shaft have all
been pulled down and the dirt is being thrown
over into the cellar part under which the cafe
was situated. The usual crowd of lookers-on
began to gather on the street before the sun
broke through the clouds and shed its rays of
light upon the scene of death and desoiation.
The number was considerably less than yester-
day morning. but there was the same interest
taken by all. The same eager question was
asked by each one as he arrived: Have any
more bodies been found?"
Pedestrians on the way to their daily work
paused for few moments to watch the work.

There seems TO be great diversity in opin-

would be found and yet they have found more.
