Cheyenne and Arapahoe Lands
to Be Opened Tuesday.
MANY WILL BE DISAPPOINTED.
More Boomers on Hand Than Land

Trouble.

OKLAHOMA CITY. o. T., April LIT is
estimated that D. coo people today are toe
ing the line at the Cheyenne and Arapahoe
Indian reservation to be lined up for
charge on Tuesday. The filers will have
the advantage of the settlers as they are
able to make declaration befote the
settlers can possibly reach the desirable
lands. The Santa Fe road is preparing to
run numerous trains into the reservation
the day of tine opening and the race for
those on horseback or in wagons
will be long one. Merchants
with loads of goods of all conceivable
kinds of business are on hand, and few
hours after the opening will be doing busi-
ness at the county seats. Thousands have
already given up hope of getting homes,
and will leave at once. Mary hope to be
able to purchase the claims of sooners and
squatters. At Kingfsher, the land re-
ceiver decided that the line formed four
weeks ago has no legal status, and there is
serious talk of forming another line. In
the event of this trouble will follow and
possibly bloodshed.

Spectators Not Satisfied With King

usnef La0U OmC6 lSui1uR.
Ell Reno, o. T., April 17.-Land specu-
lators are finding fault with the ruling of
the land Office prohibiting the filing on
more than two claims. The legitimate
boomer is, however, in high feather as he
is protected against illegal speculation by
the ruling. Rumors of a fraudulent FORM
alton line before the Kingfisher land office
are untrue. The maps issued yesterday
purporting to be from the interior depart
ment, were discovered to be circulated by
individuals for the purpose of deceiving
the boomers.
Easter services were held in nearly all
the camps along the border, and quiet
gambling games are running in most of
the towns. There was general movement
toward the border this afternoon.
KNGFIsHER o. T., April 17.-On the
way here by rail, after leaving Caldwell,
Kan, one begins to see wagon trains
pressing forward to the reservation. In
all parts of the prairie boomers wagons
and various kinds of vehicles are making
for the promised land. There are also
some on horseback and some on foot.
Some are well provided tor. and some only
possess what they wear. The crowd here
is quiet and orderly and thinning out rap
idly, as every body is making for the line.
Reports estimate that some %, ,0C0 people
are on the border. As the reservation can
only give 10000 people one claim each,
some 5000 must be disappointed, if the re-
ports are true, or take up townsite claim.

Free Coinage Men to Overthrow
Grover Cleveland.
PARTIES MUST SHOW HANDS
Hills Name Not to Be Presented, But
He Is Very Willing.
Will Not Need Much Persuasion-Con-
gressman Wilson Has q Row With a
Treasury Departments watchman-A
Pistol Was Pulled.

DENVER, Colo, April IL The Rocky
Mountain News, in leading editorial to-
morrow, will put forward the silver Demo-
cratic plan of campaign to be followed,
should Cleveland or any equally pro-
nounced "goldbug" be nominated. 1t
says:
There are thousands OF Republicans in Colo
rado who will not vote for Harrison, and thous-
ands who will not vote for Cleveland. Yet,
driven from their own parties by nominees
wearing the yoke OF Wall street, they will be
disinciined to vote for the nominee of the
Omaha convention, but will, if the action
at Chicago shall force it, select electors
pledged to vote against Cleveland, and for
such free-coinage Democrats as Senator
Morgan, of Alabama, and Congressman Bland,
of Missouri.
AS The state conventions arc held after
the national convention, it is in the power
of the national conventions to choose only
those electors who will vote for a silver
man Notwithstanding who may be nom-
mated by che national convention. 1t
urges that this course shall be pur-
pursued by the Democrats OF Colorado, Califor-
mia, Montana, Wyoming, Iowa, Nevada, Wash
ington and Oregon; also by those OF Kansas,
Nebraska and certain Southern states. By this
course the integrity of the Democratic organiza-
ton will be preserved and the election for presi
dent thrown into the House, in which event a
free coinage candidate would ultimately be
elected, and the free coinage sentiment pro-
duced by such free coinage candidate would in
sure the election of a free coinage congress.
The course of the Cleveland contingent
in New York is urged as ample warrant
for Irregularities. The article closes as
follows:
This Dernier resort of the free coinage men is
worthy OF calm and earnest consideration. That
this suggestion be passed over lightly, the
gravity OF the situation forbids. That tens of
thousands who signed the pledges of the silver
league took for some practical plan by which
they may constitutionally and consistently
exercise the suffrage effectively in cause
SO important demonstration by acts.
The movement, If undertaken. will demonstrate
that Democrats and Republicans no longer are
hewers of wood and drawers of water for Wall
street plutocrats, who now almost entirely
dominate one political party and have para
lyzed the free coinage majority in another.
PITTsBURG, Pa, April 17.-General A. ].
Warner, of Ohio, representative on the
executive committee of the National
Silver Association, who was in the city to-
day, says it is intended to put the silver
question thoroughly before the national
conventions and compel both parties to
define their positions thereon.

excited, while he himself was perfectly
cool and collected. He also thinks the
threats of killing him and the presence of
the big horse pistol, were unnecessary
factors in the affair. He said he struck
the elderly watchman because he was
using him with uncalled for roughness
and because he refused to release his hold
on his (Mr. Wilson's) collar. The affair
created quite deal of excitement in the
department. Mr.. Wilson and Chief Mere
dith are warm friends, and for that reason
the former says he regrets the occurrence.
He holds Mr.. Meredith entirely biameless
for the unfortunate episode. The old
watchman, it will be interesting to state,
is brother of Assistant Secretary Nettle-
ton Of the treasury department.

pressed over the death of his father and

NORTHERN WYOMING TROUBLE.
Ranchmen Fear That the Stockmen Will
Escape Through Legal Jugglery.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April 17.-Great anx-
iety is felt here by friends of the impris-
oned stockmen and by the state authori-
ties over the situation in Johnson county.
Orders from Governor Barbour directing
the captured stockmen az Fort Mckinney
to be brought to Douglas, and the order to
Sheriff Angus to turn over the four pris-
oners he holds to the military authorities,
served to arouse intense excitement
throughout Northern Wyoming. Small
ranchmen believe that the invaders are
to be spirited out of the reach of the
county authorities, and by some legal Jug
Cling escape trial or punishment for kill
ing Ray and Champion. The governor
disclaims any intention of aiding the
prisoners to escape punishment, and
saws that they will be turned over
to the civil authorities as soon
as adequate protection due all prisoners
can be given. The wires are down since
the orders to have the prisoners brought
to Douglas were sent and word of the gov
ernor's intention to ultimately turn the
prisoners over to the civil authorities had
not reached Northern Wyoming, and the
latest information from there is that the
ranchmen are arming and congregating at
Buffalo. 1t is their evident intention of
preventing the prisoners from be-
ing taken out of the county. If
they can be convinced that the stockmen
will be dealt with according to law, it is
generally believed they will disperse to
their homes and no violence will be Of
fered to the captives. If they become con-
vinced that the stockmen are TO escape
legal punishment serious trouble is prob
able and will result in the country being
placed under martial law.

He Has a Misunderstanding With 9
Treasury Department Watchman.

Treasury Department Watchman.
WASHINGTON CRY, April 17.-[Special.]
There was quite an exciting scene at the
bureau of engraving and printing on FRI
day, in which Representative Wilson, of
Washington state, figures as one of the
principals. and was rather roughly ham
died by three of the bureau watchmen.
Wilson gave his version of the affair. He
said he entered the building in company
with two friends whom he desired to show
through Uncle Sans great money print
ing establishment. Leaving his friends in
the waiting room, the congressman started
absent mindedly up the stairs under the
impression that Chief Merediths Office
was on the upper floor as is the
case in other departments. He
said he certainly did not wish to
transgress any of the department rules
and was proceeding quickly up the stairs
when an old man wearing q watchman's
badge shouted at him to halt. Thinking
it was the same old cry which he had so
often heard in other departments from
watehmen who did not know him, he con-
tinued to ascend the stairs when the old
watchman, accompanied by two others,
made rush Tor him. The old fellow
liIli Dy tIic CoAiaA tuC othtIs
seized him and commenced to drag him
down the stairs in very rough manner.
Mr.. Wilson struggled to free himself and
called upon the watchmen to release him,
but this only seemed to incense them the
more and they became more violent than
ever The old man, he said, was wildly
excited. and continually shouted: "Pll
kill you; I'll kill you" Reaching the
lower floor the watchmen attempted to
thrust the representative out of the
door, the old watchman still shout
ing "I'll kill you!' when Mr.. Wilson be-
coming exasperated, struck out in true
Western style and banged the old gentle
man in the face. The latter then rushed
into the office of the captain OF the watch
and reappeared on the scene brandishing
an immense revolver, with which he
threatened in highly excited manner TO
bore the Western member full of holes.
The latter, thinking wisdom was the bet
ter part of valor, receded from the build
ing with his friends and proceeded to the
treasury department, where he called up
Chief Meredith's Office on the telephone
and requested to meet him in the treasury
building. This Mr.. Meredith did, and Mr..
Wilson explained TO him the circum-
stances and gas afterward escorted
TO the building. and was shown
through by the chief What
action Mr.. Meredith will take
is not known. Mr.. Wilson says the watch
man was unnecessarily and unbecomingiy
