STATUS OF CIVILIZED INDIANS.
THE GOVERNMENT WILL TEST THE NAT
TER IN THE HIGHEST COURTS

Washington Dec . (SpecaD.-The Government
has finally decided TO test in the highest National
courts the status of civilized Indians living In tho
States citizens and paying taxes as citizens OF
such States. In a timber contract case from North
Carolina the District Attorney received orders yes
terday 10 carry the from the Circuit Court.
Judge Smonton presiding to the Court or Appeals.
and thence. II necessary. to the Supreme Court OF
the United States. In the lower tribunal 1t was
held that the Eastern band OF Cherokees living In
the mountains of North Carolina were not wards or
the Nation. but that the Government might inter-
fere to prevent q contract being enforced which
might work injustice 10 the Indians This blowing
both hot and cold did not suit the Atorney-General
and hence he directed District-Attorncy Glenn who
has been endeavorng for years TO settle the status
Of the civilized Indians. TO take steps Immediately
to carry the matter up to the higher courts
The State of North Carolina regards these Chero-
KEGS who chose when the rest OF the tribe removed
10 the Indian Territory TO remain within the state =
bounds as citizens. They pay taxes on their prop
erty like the whites and negroes. But they live In
a separate community. and receive in every lndian
appropriation bill passed by Congress stated sum
for educational purposes. \ year or two ago the
Government paid Il small to assist them in
perintendcnt. just the Western Cherokees and
Other tribes have.
This anomalous position OF wardship and citizen
ship will be brought to an end. If the Eastern
Chrrokecs are be- treated in North Carolina as
-fedged citizens they are no longer wards OF the
Nation Why should their timber contracts be su-
pervised by the Indian Office here any more than
the contracts OF other citizens OF the STATE! VI
which shall deny their wardship will stop Govern
rneut aid their schools.

Kingston Jamaica. Dec 3.-Advces received
here to-day show that disastrous cyclone has
passed over the Windward and Leeward islands
The wind blew with terrif, violence and was
accompanied by very heavy rainfall. The
many mountain streams on the various Islands
were soon transformed into torrents that swept
down into and over tn, valleys. carrying every
thing before them. The loss of life is known to
have been tremendous, but as yet 1t is impossl-
BILE to say how many persons peris he'd, ana II
will prol ably be several days before even the
approximate number will be known, reports
from the smaller and more remote islands will
be difficult to obtain.
From the advices now OF hand It appears
that the island of st. Vincent one of the Wind
ward group and the island Of Montserrat, one
of the Leeward group suffered very severely. A
number of sugar coffee and cotton estates were
inundated and in some cases the entire crops
were torn out by the roots and carried into the
sea Many OF the persons drowned were ne
groes. who lived In the vicinity Of the water
courses and who had little If any warning OF the
approaching floods
Immense damage to property was also done
by floods in the islands of Trinidad and Barba-
does but so. far known no lives were lost
those islands.

ceived dispatch from Plymouth capital or
