LONDON. April lin an interview
yesterday with Mr. Cadman. director of
Gen. Booths social redemption scheme
(of which. in fact. it is said Cadman
was the real originator). it was ex-
planned that the matrimonial bureau
which the Salvation army people pro-

commercial venture. That is why it
can not be carried on free of charge.
though there is philanthropic spirit
underlying the scheme. 1t is in
tended to facilitate suitable mar
riages among people who have few OPP
portunities for varied acquaintance or
social intercourse. Close inquiries will
be made in all cases. and negotiations
will be carried on in behalf of persons
found worthy in all respects. The
clients of the bureau will be of all
classes. Rich and poor will be treated
alike. and no inguirv will be made as
to the creed of applicants. The bureau
will be set in operation as readily for
an atheist as for follower of the Sal
vation army's banner. Mr.. Cadman be-
licves that the result will be to mate

conviction and execution are expected

FOUR MILLION ACRES.

The Excitement Over the Prospective
Opening of Four Million Acres of In
dian Lands to Settlement-April 10 the
Day, and All Must Start Fair.
GUTHRIE, o. T., April 9.-The excite
ment over the prospective opening Of
the 1000. 600 acres of Indian lands was
greater yesterday than it has been any
time yet. Thousands are gathering in
this vicinity and completing their out
fit so as to be ready to start for the line
of the reservation ON a moments no
tice. Every day they arrive by the hun
dreds, some on the trains, some in
wagons and some on foot. One COM
pany of 200 negroes are on the line who
came overland nearly 400 miles, most
of them walking the entire distance.
The survey of the six new town sites
that they will not be ready to open at
the same time as the balance of the
country. If this proves to be a fact it
will cause great crowd of people to
gather about the town and at the word
go" they will rush in on horseback, in
wagons and on foot and as at Chandler
and Tecumseh, last fall, many will be
killed. If the town sites are opened at
the same time as the rest of the country
this rush and loss of life will be done
away with. The nearest town is twenty
miles from the line. and as the people
will have to ride that distance but few
will arrive at time and the town being
open will take up lots as they arrive and
all wild rushes. quarrels and fatal ac-
cidents will be abolished.
Gov. Seaey last night received tele-
gram from Secretary Noble stating that
the opening would be on April 10. He
urged that the town sites be opened
then if possible, and in case they were
not ready stated that soldiers would be
stationed at each town to keep the
crowd until the governor proclaimed
them open. All OF the troops in the
territory were placed at the disposal of
the governor to patrol the section and
keep out all "sooners."
Secretary Noble also states that any
man who crosses the plane before the
hour of opening will forfeit all right to
both a homestead and town lots.
Everybody must start even and all have
an equal chance. Government en-
ployes, surveyors and others who may
be in the country by authority must
come out to the line and start with the
rest or else lose all rights. This last or
der nips in the bud a scheme of a COM
pany of capitalists including several
congressman and senator's who had their
plans well laid to capture all the land
about Fort Reno by the aid of govern
ment employees and there found town
which they would have made the capital
of the territory by special legislation.
