A FRACTIONAL WAR
looked Tor Among the Choctaw Indians Over
Allotment oil Lands.

Paris, Texas, Nov. 1.-THE Choctaw
council, instead of showing a disposition
to acccde to the proposition OF the Dawes
committee to allot the lands, has dis
played most violent opposition to 1t. Many
of the most intelligent and progressive OF
the tribe have been favoripg the allotment,
which has had the effect Of stirring up the
full -bloods.
A bill was passed. yesterday, making it
treason for any citizen Of that nation to
talk allotment, either publicly or privately,
anywhere in the Indian territory. The
penalty for the first offence is 100 lashes
aud six months imprisonment For the
second offence the penalty is death, with
out the benefit of trial
The leader Of the opposition to the bill
declared that its passage meant the break
ing up of the tribal government, and de
olared that this was the last session of the
Choctaw council that would ever be held
Feeling Is running high over the pass
age Of the measure, and bloody fractional
war Is predicted.
