PROCLAMATION ISSUED.
The Kickapoo Reservation to Ba
 Opened for Settlement.
The Grand Rush for New Homesteods Twenty Thousand People Win Be in Line-Less Than 6,00O
 Claims.

WASHINGTON, May 2O-The expected proclamation opening the lands of the kickapoo Indian reservation in Okla homa was signed by the president Sat u.day afternoon. The time set at which settlers may enter the lands is Thursday noon, May 23. The presi- dents proclamation opening the reser- yation to settlement next Thursday was kept as secret as possible, even the date being inserted at the very moment when the president affixed his sigma ture. This has been done in order to prevent as much as possible any more people gathering about the borders to make the grand rush at noon on Thurs day. There are only 531 claims to be taken and it is estimated there are all ready l5, people waiting to get them. The proclamation is of great length and recites all the laws enacted by congress, under which the reservation is to be opened.
 No soldiers are to be provided to keep out the boomers before the hour of noon on Thursday, but particular attention is called by the president to the fact that laws already enacted pro- vide that any one who shall step with in the border of the reservation before that time is forever barred from talk ing up any land therein. It is supposed, of course, that any sooner will be inn mediately disclosed by his less for- tunate fellows, who will testify against him and prevent him from acquiring title. An endless amount of litigation is sure to follow, however, and this of course is anticipated.
 Settlers will be requested to pay Si.5O an acre, 50 cents of which doubt less will be required for deposit on original entry. All necessary prepar- ations have been made by land office officials for carrying the provisions of the proclamation into effect The re- servation consists of 2l6,OO acres, but 13l, ,OO0 of this has been withheld for allotments of the Indians and for school indemnity purposes, leaving 5000 acres to bc taken up. The lands are subject to ordinary honest cad entry at the price of Sl. 30 per acre.
 THE SCHOOL LANDS TO HE OPENED.
 GUTHRIE, Ok, May 2O.-The news of the presidents proclamation opening the Kickapoo Indian country to set clement created great excitement in this section. Although every body was expecting the news, it's sudden coming surprised them. As a result, all is fever and excitement in the towns sur rounding the new Eldorado and every thing, from bicycle to horse, is be- ing got in readiness for a handicap race, which bids fair to equal the great rush to the Cherokee strip.
 One hundred and thirty-two thousand acres will be thrown open to settlement next Thursday at noon. Eighty-three thousand acres have been reserved for school land purposes, but Gov. Ken. frow gave out word yesterday that he will immediately throw open the school lands. This fact will help hundreds of people who fail to get in at Thursday's race. All trains are bringing in hundreds of prospective settlers al ready and Wednesday night it is esti' mated that 75,OOO will be lining the borders of the Kickapoo.

heCelpt ol war
 LOUISVILLE, Ky, May 1s.-The mili- tary and civic parade held here yester- day in honor of the arrival from Wash ington of the historic cannon donated by the United States government to the citizens and Grand Army commit tee was an imposing affair. The pa- rade was one of the largest ever seen in Louisville, being over 1 mile in length. The houses along the line of march were decorated with flags and bunting and the city presented a gala appearance. Business was generally suspended, and the people of Louis- vile turned out en masse to receive the relics. One of these cannon was in service on the federal side and the other on the confederate side during the war. It is the intention of the committee to have the cannon melted down and made into souvenirs for dis tribution during the coming encamp. ment next September.

Believed to Have Been Lynched.

GUTHRIE, Ok, May 17.-It was re- ported here yesterday that on Sunday night a posse of men called at the Dunn ranch, where the outlaws, New comb and Pierce, were killed two weeks ago, and took John, Calvin and William Dunn away with them, and that no trace can be found of the brothers. It is the general opinion in that section that all three of them have been lynched, but whether the job was done by citizens or by friends of the dead bandits who came to avenge their comrades, it is hard to tell. There are many conflicting stories.

STEEL WORKERS WAGES.
The Carnegie Advance Likely to Cause
 n Similar Increase in Other Mills.

PITTSBURGH, Pa., May l7.-It is gen. erally believed that the 10 per cent. advance in wages granted by the Car negie company will cause a similar in- crease in all the steel mills of the country. An official of the Carnegie company stated that the other com panies wouldsbe forced to give the same advance to avoid strikes, which they cannot afford to stand at the present time. Yesterday member of the Sheet Manufacturers association declared, however, that the Carnegie advance is not justified by the present market conditions, and that there must be a general advance iu the price of rails, beams, billets and plates in- side of thirty days.

LOOKING FOR THE MURDERERS.
Detectives Assigned to the Long
Bridge Tragedy.

Bridge Tragedy.
The police have begun an active and
earnest investigation OF the circumstances
surrounding the death OF Frank Smith,
the man who was found unconscious on
the Long Bridge last Thursday morning,
and who died at The Emergency Hospital
ON the following day.
After Tie report OF the verdict of the
coroner's jury had been transmitted to
police headquarters Acting Inspector John.
son assigned Detectives Weldon and Horne
to look up the case, and they viii begin
work on il to-day.
There is very little doubt in the minds
of the police that Smith was murdered, as
he could hardly have received the blow
on the head except at the hands OF some
human being, but they are utterly at
loss to assign any motive for the deed.
He was without money or valGabics of
any kind. and his death was not an OBJ
ject OF interest to anyone as far as is
known.
An effort will be made 10 find the negro
with whom Smith was said to have been
in conversation near the bathing beach on
the evening before he was discovered un-
conscious on the bridge.

on Sunday morning and a large quantity
OF clothes stolen. Access was secured II
the usual way,a pane of glass being broken

window was raised without trouble. The
room is divided by a partition which does
not reach the ceiling, and thus the
robbers were completely screened from
observation. They secured chairs and
by their means could reach the clothes
hanging on the other side of the partition.
The Job might have been done with safety

WHAT Nash Of The Chronicle doesn't
know ab0nt dancing would be sufficient
to I'LL the Sunday edition OF metropoli-
tan Journal. He fancles the grade of
dancing progresses IN the order of steps
and that the "two-step" is an elementary
affair. In dancing, Nash is about the
same as the little Scotch boy in theology.
The lad attended Sunday school and
after beng asked few questions left ID
disgust. Outside he met another lad
whose destination he inquired. On be-
ing told Sunday school," he put the
query:
Gin the minister spers how many
commandments there are, what will you
say?"
Ten of course" replied the lad who in
theology represents what The Pilot is in
dancing IN this controversy.
"Ha, try HIM wi ten" said the Young
heather, The Chronicle representative,
Il tried him WI hunder and he was no
satisfied"
Editor Nash asserts,-in the modest
garb of people say,"-that King David
could dance the ten step and speaks of
this many footed gyratlon with the easy
confidence of one to whom its intricacies
are familiar.
