After the Choice Spots on the
Cherokee Strip.
ARKANSAS CITY, Sept. 12.-Yester-
day 2,7OO certificates of registration
were issued from the booths south of
bere. When the booths opened this
morning there was a terrible crush
along the line. Those in the rear
seemed to think that pushing from be-
nina would expedite business at the
front. On the contrary. il only impeded
the work, and when the officer in charge
announced this fact the crowd became
more peaceable and quiet. Four more
, clerks were added to the working force
in the booths today, and the result was
that many more certificates were issued
than were handed out yesterday. The
total today reached over $500.
lOWn-Slte SchemerS are increasing

nave chosen the most desirable site for
their allotment, and several of them

Still remains some 5000 boomers await

the coming boomers, can easily be ac-
commodated by Saturday.
AT Saltwater. twenty 4 miles from
Orlando, the situation is much the same
as at Orlando. About 1000 certificates
were issued there yesterday, and like
number today. Fifteen hundred people
were still in line there when the booth
closed today. 1t is estimated that 1000
boomers still await the opportunity to
register there. The scarcity of water
and intense heat are responsible for the
death of several children.
CALDWELL, Kan, Sept. 12.-Addi-
tlons were made to the clerical force in
the registration booths here today, and,
as result, when they closed business
for the day, 1850 certificates had been
issued, and the boomers began to see

all before Saturday noon. The line in
front of the booths here is still main

From HenneSSey On the line of the

sin are in danger,aS result of the long
continued drOuth ana the consequent
iryneSS of the forests. Clouds of smoke
Overhang large portion of the state.
and men who came i'll trains from the
north today say that while there has
been no cerious destruction as yet,
smouldering fires can be seen in the
woods, which are dry as tinder. A high
wind, in the present condition of things,
would certainly cause disastrous results.
Out of 125 correspondents who send in
reports to the weather service, not one
reports particle of rainfall during the
past week. This is not common oc-
currence, for not many weeks pass
without there being at least local
shower in some part Of the state. At
the railroad offices there are reports of
fires from all divisions lhat penetrate
the forest region, but the reports are of
general nature, and do not tell of any
extensive damage to property. Near
Bears Marsh, Wood county. four valua-
bic cranberry marshes were burned and
the ungatheced berries destroyed. Gran
berry marshes in Juneau county have
also been burned, and hay marshes in
a good many counties are on fire. A re-
port from Summit Center, Waukesha
county, says that the marsh fires in that
vicinity have become SO extensive that
they are source of danger to the sur
rounding farms. The greatest anxiety.
however, is felt for the timber country
farther north. The pine woods are said
to be nearly, il not quite as dry as they
were two years ago, Or in the autumn of
1S7l-the latter the year of the great
Peshtigo 1ire-and unless rain falls soon
disastrous fires are pretty certain to be

CHINESE nxC.UsiON.
Attorney General Olney Makes a
statement

statement.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 12.-The first
authoritative statement issued by the
officials OF the government in regard to
the Geary Chinese exclusion act since
the recent agitation. concerning its en-
forcement or nOn-enforcement, was
made by Attorney General Olney today.
1t Is as follows:
"The statement that any action has
been recently taken by the president or
secretary of stale relative to the non
enforcement of the sixth section OF the
so-called Geary act is without founda-
ton. All that has been done since thr
original Instructions, given concur
rently to revenue officers and to mar
shalS and their deputies, by the secrr
tary OF the treasury ana the department
or JaStlce, has been done by this depart
ment- 1t having been held by Judge
Ross. of California, that warrants could
issue for violation of said sixth section
on the complaint of a private individual
and complaints having been in fact
made and warrants issued in variouS
instances. marShalS and their deputies
have been instructed that the warrant
| issued by the court must be served, and
that any orders for deportation suisse
| quently made in such: cases must be put
into execution tO the extent of any
funds available for that purpose. De
portatonS have not actually been made.
however, for this reason. In all cases of
warrants issued as above stated. wrifs
of habeas corpus have been applied for.
and, being denied, appeals have been
taken from such denial. In that state
of things rule 81 of the United States
supreme court, expressly authorized by
a oh 10 Of
pending the appeal. The language ls;
Pending an appeal from the final de-
clsion OF any court or Judge declining 20
grant a writ of ,habeas corpus, the Gus
t0dy OF the prisoner shall not be dis
turbed.'
Inc result is that in all cases of the
kinu referred to, the parties in the Gus
t3dy of the marshal or his deputies at
the time when appeals are taken from
orders refusing writs of habeas corpus
must continue in such custody pending
such appeal, and can be deported, If at
all, only after judgments upon such. ap-

The loss to property is estimated at
100000. Fires have been burning the

KRAYENBUHL ESCAPES.
One Theory Is That He Commit
ted Suicide.

tCu
DULUTH. Mimi, Sept. 12.-Frederick
Krayenbuhl, the alleged ringleader in
the insurance fraud attempted here, is
not under arrest, in spite of the orders
from New York, tC hold him. Krayen-
buhl, by the aid of a revolver, stood off
the officer who went to arrest him last
night, and, Notwithstanding the guard
placed around the house, managed to
escape before morning. After leaving
his house he went to the lake shore,
broke open boat house and took
boat. Today the boat was floating in
the lake about three miles from shore,
There was no wind or tide to drift the
boat. and it is hard to see how it
got out in the lake unless Krayen-
buhl rowed it there. Mrs. Krayenbuhl
declares her husband committed sui
eide, believing that be had seriously
wounded and perhaps killed some one
in the fight, and the police accept the
theory. 1t is generally doubted, how
ever, when Krayenbuhl's skill in ar
ranging drownings is sremembered. The
insurance men are very indignant at the
police stupidity that allowed Krayen-
buhl to escape.

foes to Go Together.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 12.-The action
Of the president today in confirming the
recommendation of Secretary Smith and
Commissioner Lamoreaux consolidating
the Taylor's Falls with the st. Cloud
land office was surprise to nearly all
the Minnesota members, as it was ex-
pected that the objection made would
cause the president to take a
different course. The Tayior's Falls
district still has over 100000 acres of
unoccupied government land, and
while at present far from active
there is prospect of an
early change in that quarter of the
state. By this consolidation the st.
Cloud office is made a rival OF the Du-
luth office. 1t leaves out Ed C. Got
try, of the Pine City Pioneer, present
register, and John Walfried, the re-
ceiver. Col. W. II. Folsom, the veteran
Democrat of Taylor's Falls, was booked
for Gottry's place, and his papers arein.
1t is now expected that the changes at
st. Cloud. Marshall, Duluth and Crroks-
ton will be made in few days. .

LONDON, Sept. 12.-The Liberal Ma
tional Federation tonight issued circu-
lar against the house of lords. In this
circular the federation will declare that
seven years. discussion and eighty-two
days consideration by the house of COM
mons definitely ascertained the wishes
OF 100000 electors, yet this counts for
nothing when opposed to the views of
400 conservative persons. Continuing,
the circular declares that the action of
the house of lords is now in the front
rank of the Liberal programme in ac-
cord with Mr.. Gladstone's declaration at
Newcastle. The circular concludes
that as the home rule bill passed the
house of commons and was rejected by
the house of lords. is doubly certain to
become law. 1t also says that not only
will the Irish question be settled, but
that real era of reform is dawning for
the democracy of the United Kingdom.
