OF Their Reservation.

spondent of the Associated Press at
Burns, Or, telegraphs as follows: Bod

tain country evidently for hunting pur-
poses, but the more knowing ones here
think they are going for different pur-
pose, and unless the agents of the reser-

will probably not have SO many Indians
to care for the coming winter. All the
cartridges and ammunition have been
bought up quietly, and the town is out
of those articles today. One hardware
firm has some 1900 rounds of cart
ridges at Huntington, Or, and the same
firm has ordered more by express, and a
team has been hurriedly sent to the rail
road after the goods. Developments

NAMES ALREADY PROPOSED
But New Justice Will Not Be Ap-
pointed Until December.
Secretaries Wilson and Smith, Don
Dickinson, Judge Patterson, and
Holmes Conrad Mentioned.

There is much speculation as to Prcsi-
dent CIeveIand's choice for the United
States Supreme Court bench 70 succeed
the late Justice Jackson, but beyond the
mention of available names there is little
Of definatc nature thus early.
1t is the general understa ndiHg that no
appointment will be made until after the
meetiu: of Congress, as the place is one OF
too much Importance and dignity for re-
cess appOiutee TO go on the bench and take
the chances of subsequent rejection by the
Senate
1t is suggested that the selection is most
likely to be made from the east, and prob
ably from New York, as Mr. Cleveland made
the last appoiutment-that OF Justice White
from the south, after the Senate had re-
jected tie names OF HornbIower and Peck
ham, both of New York
As is usual when an impOrtapt place is
TO he filled the rame of Sc +rlisle
is mentioned, but the general opinion is
that. should Mr.. Cleveland go to mis- Cabi-
net for an appointee, he is more likely TO
consider Mr. Wilson or rMr. Smith.
The name of Representative Josiah Pat
terson, of Tennessee, win probably be
called TO the attention of the President. as
he comes from the State of the late
Justice and Is known as a most loyal
friend OF Mr. Cleveland.
The names of Don " Dickinson and
Solicitor General Holmes Conrad are also
mentioned.

tragedy might not have occurred. An
officer of the police force heard a group
of them talking over the affair shortly
after 1t happened, and the government and
the contractors came in for large share
OF condemnation.
The officer said that they were agreed
that the lives of the workmen depend
entirely on their own avoidance or always
imminent danger, and some Of them said
that unless the government would take
Official notice of the case in point they
would quit the work.
The Times looked up one of the most
intelligent OF the iron workers and had
a talk with him on the subject The work

In Ohio, this arrangement was made a
matter of stringent legislation, and a
failure to comply was punishable with a

Chicago and else where, but he had not
noticed that the United States had any
such regulation.
