ISAAC PITMAN DEAD.
Was the Father of the Present Sys-
tenn of PhonoEraphy-II

London, Jan. 22.-Sir Isaac Pitman, the
inventor of the system of shorthand writ
ing which bears his name, is dead. He has
been suffering for several years from a
complication of troubles.
Isaac Pitman was born at Trowbridge,
England, January 4. 1918. He received his
early education at the normal British
school at London, after which he was
compelled to leave school and enter mer-
camille establishment. He served six years
as clerk and completed his education by
taking a five months course in the Brit
ish and Foreign School Society, after
which he was appointed master of the
British school at Barton-upon-Humbe
whore he remained five years, and in 1896
established the British school at Watton-
under-Edge. The following year Sir Isaac
Pitman wrote his first work on shorthand
which bore the title of "Stenographic
Soundhand." In 1910 the name of his sys-
tenn was changed to Photography" or
Writing By Sound" and in 1916 his "Pho-
nographic Reporters Companion" appear
ed. This paper was printed at Bath by
himself. and he issued the Bible and many
other works in Photographic characters
Ben Pitman. who came to this country
and lived. until the time of his death, in
Cincinnati, o., was n brother of Sir Isaar
and after his arrival in the United States
revised and perfected the old system.
Tho PitmanS were the authors of many
treaties on shorthand and phonography,
but the latter branch never had the popu-
larity of the shorthand.

WARRANTS FOR A CASHIER.
Croolsedness Alleged in Connection
With the Sioux City Savings
BunIS Failure.

Sioux City, Ia, Jan. 22.-Depositors Of
the defunct Sioux City Savings bank to-
day swore out warrants in a justice court
for E. P. Stone, late cashier of the bank,
charging him with embezzlement and
cheating by false Dretenses.
In the assets of the failed bank was
counted about $4,000 worth of cattle paper,
which was classed as gilt edged. One of
the depositors' committee, with the former
teller of the bank, went into the counties
of Nebraska, where the cattle on which the
money had been loaned were alleged to be,
and could find neither the cattle nor any
such men as those whose names were sup
posed to be signed to the mortgages. 1t
appeared that the paper was wholly hcti-
tious and without worth. The receiver I'M
mediately swore out the warrants.
Mr.. Stone, the eX-cashler, 1t was sup
posed, had gone to his farm in Nebraska,
and it was expected that he would return
to-day. He did not come, and the sheriff
who had gone to the Nebraska farm could
not find him. 1t was said he had gone to
Omaha. The sheriff went to Omaha, and
there learned that Stone had gone to Chi
cago. He took, the first train on the ex-
cashiers trail. The attorney for Stone
says there is no mystery about the ex-
cashiers whereabouts. He says he has
gone to New York to take position with
a large wholesale firm, and that he will
return to Sioux City in three weeks. Mrs.
Stone also says her husband has gone to
New York.

NEWS OF INDIAN AFFAIRS.
wichita Reservation Auotting Agents
-QuRpaw Leases-Choctaw Treaty
Likely to he Ratified.

Likely 10 he huttneu.
Washington, Jan. 22-(SpeciaI) Secre-
tary Francis has decided that the alloting
agents for the Wichita reservation must
be appointed by the president, and will lay
the matter before him at once, with his
recommendations.
Secretary Francis has approved the rec
ommendation of the commissioner of In
dian affairs to allow the Pawnees $50, 900
from their fund for the purchase of agri-
cultural implements.
The difficulties that have arisen in the
Quapaw tribe as to the leasing of their
lands will doubtless be adjusted by an
amendment to the Indian appropriation
bill, permitting all adult members of the
tribe to lease, except in the case of i'm
beetles, etc, whose leases will be held in
valid unless made in conformity with the
rules and regulations prescribed by the in
terror department.
Touching the Choctaw treaty, it is gen.
orally believed that it will be ratified before
congress adjourns. The only serious diff
ficulties in the way are those affecting the
coal leases, and these are in a fair way of
adjustment between the Dawes commission
and the representatives of the Choctaws,
who are here in conference with the secre-
tary of the interior. These difficulties turn
upon the question what disposition shall
be made of the companies who are operat-
ing the leases. They are asked to bear
their burden of increased taxation where
they come in as part of a townsite. AS
soon as this question is satisfactorily dis
posed of. the treaty will be forwarded to
congress for its action. There is a dis
position in the house to act on 1t as soon
as it Is submitted. The Platt bill has been
sent TO the secretary of the interior for his
ly to interfere with the right of way of
the treaty.

OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE.
House Puts in Another Day ParceIing
Out Pie-Disappointed Aspirnnts
Send in n Petition.

Guthrie, o. T., Jan. 22.-(Special) The
session of the legislature to-day was rath-
er a tame affair after the big row of last
night. The senate was in session but a
half hour. and one new bill was intro
duced.
The house put in half of the day in fill
ing the clerkships created by the one bill
they have passed, and then rushed through
to enrolment another bill to appropriate
$500 to pay them at once for work they
have never done. Six bills were introduced,
one of which cuts the salary of the ter
ritorial librarian from 81, 500 to $780, and
one cutting the salaries of county officials.
A petition was read from fifty disappoint-
ed Populist aspirants for clerkships ask.
ing for transportation to Cuba, where they
felt their labors in behalf of reform would
be better appreciated. Mrs. Weeks, of
Wichita kas., got the caucus nomination
for clerkship, but such howl was
raised about her being nonresident that,
fearing a repetition of last nights indigna-
ton meeting, she was afterward turned
down and the place given to local appli-
cant.

house members will pledge themselves 10

carry their point. If they secure enough
pledges they will spring the fight again;
but If they cannot then nothing more VII

cerned.
Ed Snow threatens to serve written no.

he is the state printer and demand the
work. If they refuse to recognize MN, ne

threatens to sue Major Hudson for the
profits of the state partnership for the past
two years.
Attorney General Boyle to-day trans
mitted his written opinion to the legisla-
ture on the Snow-Hudson controversy;
The opinion is the same that he delivered
orally to the Populist caucus few nlghts
ago. and is to the effect that Major Hud-
son is only state printer de facto and that
the legislature may elect man IN his
stead, II il sees fit.
Senator Forney to-day introduced bill
in the senate providing that the state
printer be elected by majority vote of
the joint assemblage. instead of major
ity of each. Another bill also provides that,
in case of a vacancy in the office. the
governor shall appoint only until the meet
ing of the legislature. The bill is designed
to prevent another such contest as E. H.
Snow inaugurated in 1895 to keep posses
sion of the office after his time expired,
and which he still hopes will give him
the office until July l.

Washington, Jan. ESPECIALLY Secre-
tary Francis has issued instructions to all
intruders on the lands OF the five civilized

we're given ninety days in which to fie

GoFF FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.
Generally Believed That the West
Virgininn Will BE in the
Cabinet

Canton, O., Jan. 22.-Judge Nathan Goff.
of West Virginia, on most of the cabinet
states as attorney general, who came here
to-day to confer with Major Mckinley, re-
manned in the city until this evening. when
he left for home. 1t is generally believed
that he has been practically determined
upon for the attorney general of the next
administration, although no direct author
itative statement to that effect has been
made. Judge Goff, when seen by the As
socisted Press correspondent this evening,
said that his conversation with Major Nc
Kinley was of a confidential nature. and he
did not feel at liberty to make any of it
public until the matters discussed had been
finally determined upon. He admitted
however, that cabinet matters had been
discussed, and said that he had no doubt
the South would furnish one of the mem
bers of the cabinet
