INDIAN M.
h Senate Passes . Diu which Makes
Many Radical Changes

Many Radical Changes
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The Senate,
at 1870 last night, passed the Indian
appropriation bill, after striking out
all Of the Plat provision excepting
that relating to jurisdiction of United
States courts. An amendment trans
ferring the jurisdiction of the Indian
courts to the United States courts was
offered by Senator Vest and adopted.
The purpose is to let the Dawes ON
mission 90 on with its work and com
plete treaties with all the tribes, the
only reservation being the provision
relating to the jurisdiction of the
courts, which abolishes the functions
Of tho tribal judiciary. The Indians
will doubtless accept this ultimatum
without attempting any opposition,
glad to get off at this price. This will
leave the Dawes commission a free
hand, and allow them To consume a
few years longer in bringing the In
dian question to q close.
Senators Teller, Plat and Hoar
urged the necessity Of replacing the
corrupt Indian courts with a United
States judicial syste m. Will Mr.. Villas
protested against tanning through
an amendment d~espoiling Indians of
their rights. The amendment. as
finally agreed to, gives the United
States courts exclusive jui isdict!on
over all civil and criminal cases. abol-
ishing the native courts. Two addi-
tional judges are provided for the ter
ritory.
The part of the Indian territory pro-
vision In the appropriation bill stricken
out by the senate Is the committee
amendment authorizing the Dawes
commission to set apart townsites and
churches and educational and mineral
lands, and to allot the remaining lands
among the five tribes.

Mrs. f. w. Swift of Kearney came
near meeting with a serious accident
Saturday morning last. She and her

name OF the clever animal. There is
nothing particularly attractive In his

WHERE CORK COMES FROM.

The great cork forests Of the world
are in southern Europe, especially In
Spain and Portugal. The trees will
grow and even thrive in America, but
the cork produced IL of an inferior
quality.
The Spanish cork forests cover ar
area Of $40, 900 square acres. those OF
Catalonia and Barcelona taking first
rank. Cork trees growing near the
s~eacoast are subject to a fungous
| growth which renders their product
useless for purposes Of commerce.
Cork trees are not strong enough to
stand the operation Of barking till
they are fifteen years old. After that
time they may be barked every three
years without detriment and will con-
tinue to thrive and bear for about $50
years. ~
Cork OF the first stripping IL called
corcho bornio. or virgin cork: that Of
the second stripping IL known as pelas.
The work OF removing the bark from
the trees Ia done In summer time by
men, who are paid about go cents q
day. After the bark is stripped 1t Is
boiled. sometimes In the woods. but
more often In large caldrons at the
cork factories. for the purpose Of in
creasing It's thickness and elasticity.
In Spain. Italy, Turkey. Morocco and
Algeria, the countries where cork is
most plentiful, II is used for many
things besides bottle-stoppers. For in
stance, bee-hives, kitchen pals, culin-
airy utensils. collins, images. crosses.
cabins, drinking vessels, pillows, shoes.
armor. boats and many articles OF furn-
iture are made from cork.

experts" To this enc the British expert,
Thompson, and the Canadian expert Ma
coun, were named it being expected that
the United States would name its expert,
Professor Jordan. Mr.. Hamlin was named,
however, and it is understood that this is
viewed rather in the light of naming coun-
selor or diplomat as the United States rep
resentative rather than an expert. While
no official objection has been made to the
appointment, it is believed to account in
part for Canada's delay in sending her
pert to Washington.
No mention is made in the convention of
the killing of the seals in case Great Brit
ain and Canada do not cooperate. 1t is
pointed out that Russia and Japan could
not adopt retaliatory steps against Canada.
Any action against Canada must be taken
by the United States alone. The plan of
killing the seals has been embodied in bills
now before Congress, but it has not come
before the conference as a step now to be
taken by the allied powers.
Mr. Foster gave reception tonight to
the Russian, japanese and British dele
gates and experts. Professor Thompson

FaIIacy of the Trades-UniOn Position.
EngiI eering Magazine.

The unionist as a rule, is not a thinking
man. If he were a thinking man, he would
not belong to a union 1t appears to his
clouded intellect that there is a certain
amount of work that has to be DONE any
way, and that this quantity is fixed. Con-
sequently. he looks upon work as some
thing that ought to be nursed and made to
go as far as possible. 1t appears to him
that, the more he gets per hour and the
greater number of hours he can be en-
ployed upon a job. the greater the yield 10
his society. 1t never occurs to him for a
moment that, if this were carried to ex-
tremes in either direction, the whole thing
would be changed For instance if the
cost of mechanical work should be in
part of it would be driven into foreign
countries, whereas, if it could be produced
in England for 20 per cent. less than in
other countries there would be more than
enough work for every one that could be
employed in England. If an Engljshman
were forced to use the same implements
and to spin and weave in the manner in
vogue in India. he would be unable to pro-
duce cotton cloths in England which could
be taken to India and sold at a profit, but
with the improved appliances in England
cottonS have been made so cheaply as to
make native competition impossible in In
dia, except when the same appliances were
employed, and for long time ii might be
said that England had a monopoly of cot
ton goods over the greater part of Asia.
In this case success did not depend upon
the ability to produce fairly good article,
but altogether upon the ability to produce
it rapidly and cheaply. YET it will be re-
membered that the very instruments en-
ployed to enable the English to compete on
so faVora BILE terms were fought, tooth and
nail by the Weavers themselves.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

WASHINGTON, Nov 1.-The premature
publication of Secretary Cages financial
and banking plan has greatly angered the
secretary Copies of that portion of his re-
port which contains the plan were given in
the strictest confidence to five members of
the Cabinet on Friday last, and within nve
hours thereafter a verbatim copy found
it's way into the hands of a Wash
ington newspaper correspondent, who
placed the matter in three papers Sat
urday morning-one in Washington, one in
New York and one in Chicago. Secretary
Gage is very angry over the leak" and,
while he is not going about charging be-
trayal or bad faith, it is clear that the
finger of suspicion points to the gentle
men who were made custodians of the con-
fidentially distributed document The eff
forts which some or all of the distinguished
gentlemen may make to free themselves
from suspicion are likely to make something
of a stir and result in more or less bad
blood and loss of mutual confidence. No
stone will be left unturned to locate the
leak
