Contagious Blood Poison has been ap-

more virulent form, resulting in total
wreck of the system.

tIon Filed Against u.

The following Associated
Press dispatch is self-explana-

Washington, May 19.-Secre-
tary of the Interior Bliss sent
to the senate today a copy of
the recent agreement between
the Dawes commission and the
Choctaws and the Chickasaws.
With the agreement he sends a
letter from the commissioner of
Indian affairs, in which the
commissioner says agreement
represents the most important
proposition relating to Indian
affairs with which the govern
ment has had to deal in recent
years. There is involved H.
33S, 900 acres of land, II $50 In
dians and 100000 whites. He
states that although it is ex-
pected that all persons could
not be satisfied, yet so far nc
objections had been filed in the
Indian Office against it, and he
recommends that it be sent tC
congress for consideration.
The above will start a rumble
in the two nations like unto {

ties, and it was suggested that dice
box be procured and the ties thrown
off. This was agreed to and the game
of chance proceeded. each tie being set
tied with horses"
The first one gave the populist candi-
date the victory. The second scored
another victory against the republic
ans and the third caused still greater
CONSERVATION because the "horse" was
favorable to the populist.
Then il was that the cry of loaded
dice went up from several republican
bystanders. but upon examination the
bones were pronounced all right. There
was much uneasiness manifested when
the fourth tie was shaken off, But in
this the spell was broken and the re-
publican got in.
Railroad Commissioner billiard, who
was the referee and who suggested the
dice game. says it was a fair shake"
all around. He says the good Lord was
evidently on the side of the populists
and that the change from drawing
straws" to shaking dice to decide ties
in local elections is movement which
will grow in popularity in Kansas.
About dozen ties were settled in other
counties, but the interested parties
were unwilling to discard the old plan
of drawing straws."

murder he was charged with.
Il do not know YOU" said Meyer, as
lie walked quickly out of the court
room. Il never saw you before this
minute"
This was too much for the girl. She
became historical. They told her that
she would again have chance to speak
with her father.

until to-day. When he was released
from the penitentiary my mother would
not allow him to live with her again.

read in the papers about the murder
of Mrs. Stelz and the print of the
bloody hand with the finger gone my
mother tainted. She said that she knew
that it was the work of my father"
Meyers denial of his daughter was
too much for the girl and in her ex-
cited frame of mind she said:
Il hope they will send him to the
chair; yes, to the electric chair. do,
I do"
And then she burst into tears.
Louise was again taken later to the
Tombs. At first her father persisted
in his denial. Louise's pleadings were
more than he could stand. When she
promised him aid he broke down and
admitted his identity. just before Lou
Use left him Meyer said: won't you
kiss your poor father goodbye"
The girl pressed her face hard against
one of the openings between the bars
of her fathers cell. Meyers lips met
the lips of his child.

AN ASSASSIN BY HABIT.
Most Remarkable Criminal in New
York Police Annals.
The Many Crimes of Fritz Meyer,
Alias Constantine Steiger-Was
Ready to Kill mt the slight
est Provocation.

According to the New York CORE
spondent of the Chicago Tribune, facts
have come to light which stamp Fritz
Meyer, who murdered Policeman Fred
Smith in the Church of the Most Holy
Redeemer no. long ago, as the most re,
markable and desperate criminal in the
police history of the metropolis.
Two church murders and three aliases
are credited to him, but more than
that, other startling and mysterious
crimes which have baffled the police OF
New York may yet be fastened at his
door. He was ready to kill upon the
slightest provocation.
His wife says that his brutality
caused the death of six of their children
He made murderous attack once upon
his sister-in-law and nearly succeeded
in killing her, because she refused to
give him money.
Now the police attributed another
murder to Meyer. They think he was
responsible for the killing of Widow
Carson, keeper of junk shop in Brook
Ign, eight months ago.
They announced that they expected
to arrest his accomplices soon.
Meyer, they said, was one of a gang
of three men who have committed a
number of daring crimes in Brooklyn.
They had reason to believe the second
1nan was stationed outside the church
the night Steiger shot and killed Po-
liceman Smith. They also think he was
implicated in the attempt to rob Brewer
Ochs.
Meyers real name is Constantine
Steiger. He is an eX-convict, who, I'M
der the name of John Schmidt, was re-
leased from Auburn prison last July.
As Constantine Steiger, of Williams
burg, he has been absolutely identified
by many people, chief of whom is his
daughter, Louise. More than that, he
has admitted his identity.
Meyers first meeting with his daugh-
ter, Louise, was full of dramatic in
terest. The prisoner, stolid and sullen,
denied his daughter. The young girl,
with tears in her eyes, looked beseech-
ingly at her father and begged that he
