ment OF the Principal.
Washington, Feb. 12.-Attorney General

Hoadley, the governments legal repre-
sentative in the matter of the sale of the
Kansas Pacific Railway, stating that an
arrangement has been affected by which
the Union Pacific reorganization commit
tee would pay the principal of the govern.

mittee guaranteed that the government
should receive at the sale of its interest OF
the Kansas Pacific road on Feb. 16. not
less than S6,90S.O00, the amount of the prin-
cipal Of its claim
Thereupon the attorney general wired
authority to accept the guarantee.
Inc acceptance of the proposition does
not however, prevent the government
from accepting any bid in excess of the
amount guaranteed.
In the two transactions by which the
government has disposed of its liens unon

of interest, amounting to $6e24107. The
amount realized from the two sales is
about $20,000000 in excess of the amount
the government offered to take during the
last part of the last administration
As to the Kansas Pacific, the govern
ment officials regard the outcome as emf
nently satisfactory, inasmuch ,as the srn
realized. when taken in connection with
the first liens, which the government would
have been compelled to bid in order 10

their judgment, the fun value of the road
This settlement of the matter releases md

LAWS FOR INDIAN TERRITORY.
Comprehensive Measure Designed to
Harmonize Them

comprehensive Measure Designed to
Harmonic Them.
Washington Feb. 12-The subcommittee
on Indian affairs, which has been engaged
for considerable time In framing meas
ure designed to harmonic the laws for the
government of the Indian Territory and to
bring order out of the chaos prevailing
suit will be presented to the full committee
on Monday.
The bill framed Is a most comprehensive
measure. 1t abolishes all Indian courts in
the territory and requires the Presidents
approval of all acts passed by the Indian
legislature. This latter provision is to pre-
vent much of the scandalous legislation
enacted by the Indian legislature, which
was prejudicial to the interests of the In
dams as a whole.
The bill extends the criminal and civil
laws OF the United States to the territory
so as to prevent a conflict of authority
such as has heretofore frequently arisen
where a white man was murdered by an
Indian or vice versa
1t also allots in severalty the lands of
the five civilized tribes and adjusts pend
ing disputes between them. For instance,
the Delawares have purchased 10000 acres
from the Cherokees, but have not yet OBJ
tanned them.
1t empowers the Dawes commission TO
lay out town sites and provides for ac-
quiring lots and the methods of conduct
ing the business of the towns, and in vari-
Gus other ways provides for the equities
between the Indians.
MIR. Fisher, chairman of the Indian COM
mittee, hopes to secure action on the meas
ure a this session of Congress.
