INDIAN TERRITORY REFORMS.
The Curtis Bill to BE Reported to the
Senate.

The Senate committee on Indian affairs
today agreed to report the Curtis bill
which provides for many reforms in In
dian Territory. The report has not been
prepared, but when made it will show a
number of amendments, among which is
one striking out all the provisions of the
bill i'll regard to forcible entry and detainer
because they are in conflict with the gen.
eral laws of the state of Arkansas. The
provision for acquiring title in townstes
was also eliminated from the bill. but that
authorizing the Incorporation of towns was
left intact. An amendment is also recon-
mended providing for The submission Of
the amended agreements with the Chicka-
saws, Choctaws and Creeks to those In
dams for ratification, and the amendment
provides that in cases where the agree
ments are ratified the provisions of the
Curtis bill shall not apply.
The bill will probably be reported tomor-
row, and Senator Pettigrew, chairman of
the committee. hopes to get it up for con-
sideration by the Senate.
