STRIPPED ON THE STRIP.
Cherokee Live Stock Association Be-
tween Two Fires.

Cherokee Live Stock Association Be
tween Two Fires.
KANSAS CITY, March 18.-The direct
ors of the Cherokee Live Stock associa-
ton held a meeting in this city Wednes-
day. They won't say what the object
of the meeting was or what it did, but
enough has leaked out to indicate that
the directors of this puissant organiza-
ton find themselves in pretty mess.
The association was organized to lease
grazing lands on the Cherokee strip,
which were parceled out to the members
of the association. 1t paid little or moth
ing for the grazing privileges at first.
Afterward the price paid was $l0O, 600
per annum. Then it was raised to $780,
900. In 1890 the directors of the asso-
ciation executed note for that amount,
payable to tne Cherokee nation. The
national administration proved as good
as its word, however, and not head OF
stock was permitted to Craze on the
strip that year. The Cherokees hold
the note and demand payment OF the
money. Several attempts have been
made Of late to hold a meeting OF the
directors of the association, but without
success, until Secretary Blair sent each
individual member of the directory mo-
tice that if he did not attend the next
meeting an officer of the law would be
sent after him. That was successful
and there was quorum Wednesday for
the first time in year and half.
Cattlemen who are not members OF
the association say that the members are
very much discouraged by the impor-
tunities of the Cherokee note holders
and the disposition of the members OF
the Cherokee Strip Live Stock associa-
ton who are not directors. If anybody
pays the note it will be the directors, and
they say that they will see the Indians
further first. The association, they say,
got no grass, SO that there was no equiv
alent for the note. The directors, II Is
said, will 20 into the United States court
| in an effort to have the note declared
| void

NOT ENOUGH.
The Naval Appropriation Bill
as Recommended.
Such Is the Opinion Of Secre-
tary Tracy.

A Naval Rendezvous Should Be Made
This Year-Favors the Construction OF
One or Two Battle Ships, Ten Torpedo
Boats and Few Small Gunboats, Some
of the Latter at Interior Points.
WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Secretary
Tracy does not regard the naval APP
preparation bill, as reported by the
house committee on naval affairs, as be-
ing equal to the needs of the new navy.
He says particularly that the appropria-
ton for the naval rendezvous ought to
be made this year, and to be made to
the amount of $3.50, 200. He does not
believe that smaller sum will DO
sufficient guarantee of the success OF the
meeting. This gathering of our own
new vessels and the vessels of foreign
powers at Hampton Roads. and after
ward in New York harbor, he con-
siders an important preliminary to the
opening of the worlds fair next year.
The money will be needed for Il
entertainment of foreign guests, bring
ing our own vessels home from distant
stations, and in perfecting the arrange
ments for brilliant display of bunting
and the sails in New York harbor.
Don't See 1t That Way.
The secretary does not regard the de-
lay in compl sting ship armor as a valid
reason for refusing to make liberal ap-
preparations for new armored vessels
this year. He SAYS the house committee
themselves admit that the deliveries OF
armor under existing contracts can be
completed in 1894, and it is obvious that
new vessels which might be authorized
this spring would not be ready for their
armor until after the present contracts
with the Bethlehem Iron works and the
Carnegie works are fulfilled These
works have so improved their plants
that they will be able to turn out 700
| tons of armor per month after July !,
and at the end of two years they Will
have turned out enough for all the bat
tie ships now in process of construction.
What He Would Like to See.
The secretary would like to see one or
| two battle ships authorized, and espe..
cially ten torpedo boats and few small
gunboats of from 800 to 1000 tons each.
The torpedo boats would not cost mole
than $100, 900 each, or 81 100000 in all,
and the gunboats would not cost more
than $500, 900 each.
The torpedo boats, the secretary be-
| lieves. could be built at numerous
points along the Mississippi river and its
tributaries, and some Of them could be
built on the lakes if the treaty with
Great Britain permitted. He thinks
that the distribution of the building Of
three boats among different American
manufacturers would be beneficial to
the iron and steel industries, and would
encourage study of the ship-building
art at the leading ports on the coast and
on the rivers. A boat apiece, he
thinks, might perhaps be assigned to
Pittsburg, Cincinnati, st. Louis and
Dubuque,

RECIPROCITY WITH MEXICO.
Diaz shows That His Country Has Done
Her Share.


NEW YORK, March ia special
correspondent in the City Of Mexico met
President Diaz Wednesday, and when
the president was asked to state Mex
ico's attitude towards reciprocity with
the United States he said:
"What reciprocity do you refer top II
you mean the negotiation of formal
treaty of reciprocity l desire to say that
anumber of years ago the Grant Romero
treaty was negotiated and duly ratified
by both the senates of Mexico and the
United States, but in order that the
treaty should have force it was necessary
that congress should pass an enabling
act. In this body the treaty met with
opposition and delays occurred. 1t be-
came necessary that the time for the
treaty to take effect be extended.
"This was done, and still the house
did not act. Finally the ways and means
committee brought in an adverse report,
couched in language highly offensive to
Mexico. That report was signed by
twelve of the thirteen members of the
committee. and was the death blow to
the Grant Romero treaty. Since then the
United States has not proposed the nego-
these facts it is clear that if q reciproci-
ty treaty is not now in force between the
two republics it is not the fault Of Mex
ico.
"As to the proposed reciprocity based
on the Mckinley tariff these are the
facts: Minister Ryan was instructed to
confer with the Mexican government,
which in turn, appointed Jose l. Liman-
tour to conduct negotiatiations. Nege-
tiatiations continued about two months,
when the two commissioners reNhed,
or seemed to reach, an agreeiAsnt.
When the time for signing came, how
ever, Mr.. Ryan announced that he would
first have to consult his government.
That was about the end of December.
Since then the Mexican government has
heard nothing from Mr.. Ryan On tbs
subject"

SYRACUSE, N. Y, March 1s.--Deputy
Sheriff Collins Wednesday searched the
cell of the train robber, Perry, In the
Lyons Jail and found two fine saws BE-
creted in the mattress. A more astound-

about the shackels to prevent them from
chafng his ankle, was removed, and the
irons fell to the floor. They had been
cut clean through by some instrument
