grown 16-year-old negro, was caught

Failure to Sell Cherokee Strip Bonds Re-

TAHLEoUAH, l. T., July S1.-The fail.
ure of the Cherokee delegates to dis
pose Of the strip bonds" has worked
q hardship upon the whole Cherokee
people that will be hard TO overcome.
When Chief Harris called the Cherokee
council together to ratify the congress-
sional act, bill was at once prepared
providing for the acceptance Of the sit
uation.
In view of the large amount of money
that would soon be paid out to'the
Cherokee people, all classes of people
among them began to speculate. Mer-
chants bought heavy stocks, the sew
ing machine and organ and piano man
made his appearance, and large droves
of horses were brought from Kansas
and Texas. The full blood neglected
even his small crops to trade on his
head right. The failure Of the sale Of
the bonds created feeling OF concern.
"No provisions for winter" ave are
all in debt" is heard on every side.

lotion, July 31.-A huge conspiracy
h14 boon unearthed whereby seventy
;lrHc banks and banking institutions
iN New England were victimized. The
s',T' IS to the effect that certain em-
,cycs of the Northern Pacific Elevator
r""pany, of Minnesota, issued $780,
r}.NiGrth of forged duplicate certificates
fcr gan in storage in the country"
r"vato-s owned by the concern where
the inspection is not so strict as at the
terminal elevators. These forged GER
;i.ratcs were deposited with western
banks as collateral. About $500, 900 was
secured in New England and the bal
rncc in New York. Some OF the east
crr holders OF the paper became sus-
pcious and on an investigation being
made the true state Of affairs came to
light.
The stockholders Of the elevators
were dumbfounded when the facts
came to their notice and offers OF set
tlement with the banks was at once
made and terms of compromise Of
fered.
The company was then reorganized
as the Lake Superior Elevator Com
pany, with George Cook, secretary OF
David Dows & Co., New York, as presi-
dent. The terms offered to the banks
were 90 per cent. cash, the remainder
to be paid in five annual payments A
committee of bankers whose institu-
tions Mold large blocks of the elevator
certificates was appointed to consider
this proposition. 1t is impossible to
say exactly what course the bankers
will pursue, as they are very loath to
talk and, in fact they have done all in
their power to keep the whole affair
from the public,
. The Northern Pacific Elevator Com
pany is now in the hands of a receiver
and the frauds Of its employees have
wiped out its existence. Among the
New England banks swindled are
nearly all the state institutions here
which were hit heavily; banks at Port
land, Maine, and various banks in the
towns about Boston.

PENSION SUSPENSIONS.

yiews of Corporal Tanner and Ex-Com-
mander-in- Chief Palmer The Case of
Judge Long.
, WASHINGTON, July 25.-Regarding
2he pension granted to Judge Long, OF
the Michigan supreme court which has
been reduced by order of the pension
commissioner, Corporal Tanner, under
whose administration the increase OF
pension was made, said to reporter:
"The fact is that Judge Long is dis
,bled with gunshot wound in the left
lip and has the arm on the same side
lmputated above the elbow. The gum
hot wound reaches through from the
left to the right hip where the bullet
till lodges, and the wound has never
healed. The wound requires dressing
rom twice day upwards, and Judge
long has no hand on that side to do
he dressing and has to be regularly
,ttended by nurse who does this for
him. 1t is true that he is receiving a
good salary from the bench, but the
Almighty gave him his intellect and he
cultivated it after he came out Of the
war private soldier, and deserves all
he gets from it."
Speaking Of the suspension OF PEN
ions, ex-Commander-in-Chief Palmer,
4 the G. A. R., who is in the city, says:
1T looks like organized administrative
nostility to the old veterans. have
always said that II man were on the
pension rolls fraudulently he should
be summarily cut off, but believe
that there have been gross exaggera-
tions of the number of people who
were drawing pensions they were not
fairly entitled to.
| notice in the papers the case Of
Judge Long, Of the Michigan supreme
court. Well, it seems that in the gen.
nrosity of his heart, Jim Tanner, while
commissioner of pensions, rsrated the
judges case without application on the
alters part Doubtless Tanner went a
step too far, but after all the outside
world is not often able to fairly Judge
nf the merits Of particular case. /

THE SEA AND THE SEALS

The Behring sea controversy has at
last nearly reached an end There has
been talk enough to have killed all the
seals In the Pacific, if they had been
forced to listen to it, and only lot Of
Frenchmen could have survived it.
The peculiar thing about the whole
controversy is that the United States
has farmed the seal herd out 10 pri.
yate corporation, and is spending
thousands of dollars to protect the
rights of corporation, which has
cheerfully ignored the rights of the
government, the neople, the seals and
everything else connected with the
Behring sea. If the seals, the present
company, and the old Alaska company
with Lewis and Phillip Sloss, could be
turned over to the pelagic pirates, it
would be an unmitigated blessing to
the country.
