Dawes Commission Ruling.

Denisen, Tex, Oct. Sc. A.
Winter and wife of Durant, /. T.,
were in the city to-day en- route
home from Ardmore, Purcell. Pauls
Valley, Tishomingo and other
places in the territory. Mr.. Win
ter says that the rulings of the
Dawes commission will cause a
great deal of trouble in the Indian
Territory and especially in the
Chickasaw nation. He says that
many of the big ranch owners
and farmers, who have been
refused enrolment on the ground
that they belonged to other tribes,
will be knocked out of their prop
erty where it is now located and
will have to take property in some
other nation or tribe and will have
to lose what improvements they
have made in the Chickasaw ma
ton.

Fiobson Changes his Plans.

Santiago, Oct 5. - Lieutenant
Hobson has arrived here on a visit.
He changed his program, and
worked for an entire week on the
Vizcaya in recovering her guns.
Tomorrow divers will make a final
examination of the Vizcaya's bot
tom, in the hope that there is
bare possibility of raising the ship:
Lieutenant Hobson will afterward
proceed to the wreck of the Amir
ante Oquendo and take off her
guns, leaving the Cristobal Colon
until the last.
Lieutenant Hobson has recover
ed the glasses which he had on
board the Merrimac. They were
taken by Admiral Cervera. When
the Admiral was at Annapolis, he
was asked about the glasses, and
in reply stated that he had left
them on board the Infanta Maria
Teresa. After that vessel was
raised a search was made, but the
glasses were not found. Lieuten-
ant Hobson, while looking over
board in the clear water one day
saw what might be his glasses.
He dived overheard and discovered
that the object which he saw was
that for which he had been search
ing. The glasses were recovered
and shipped north to friends in
New York.
