SOMEWHAT Of A FRAUD
Chief Callahan Dispels Kinks
Claim to Being an
Injured Soldier.

On Saturday last when the Aldermen
visited Snake Hill they We're astonished 70
find that a man who had enlisted had
been committed TO the penitentiary Tor
ninety days. The story told of the M
! dividual was that he became intoxicated
the day he babe good bye to his friends,
was arrested and committed by a heart
less magistrate for a long term for such q
trifing ~offense.
Many of the Aldermen denounced the
soldiers commitment, and characterized
it as an outrage. 1t was agreed to AS

and, If possible, secure the release Of the
volunteer. The soldier in question is
John Hinks, of No. 800 William street,
Harrison.
Chief of Police Callahan of that town
tells a far different story than the one
Kinks imposed on the Aldermen. He says
that when the first call for troops was is

WITNESS BREAKS DOWN.
Six Year Old Girl Cannot Tell
Her Story and the Prisoner
Goes Free.

The morning hours in the General SEES
sions Court were occupied today with
the trial of Edward Willie. a florist of
West Hoboken, for indecent assault on
Emma Meisse, six years old. There was
some question as to the child's COM
potency as a witness on account of her
youth, but Judge Blair examined her and
decided that she was competent.
1t is alleged that Willie enticed the child
into his house by giving her flowers and
took improper liberties with her. She
burst into tears several times and it was
with difficulty that her story could be
extracted from her. She finally broke
down entirely and it was impossible to
continue the case. The Court reluctantly
directed the jury to acquit the defendant.

The effect the ratification OF the
Creek treaty will have upon the

speculation. The Cherokees will
hardly consider that fact plaus-
able and sufficient reason why they
should do likewise. Indeed it
may soon appear to be a substan-
tial reason why they should not do
as have done the Creeks. The as
sertion that the Cherokees are
ruined on account of being the last
Of the five tribes to make terms
with the government is OF no
weight and worthy Of no consider
alton. There have been, and are
still the very best Of reasons why
the Cherokees have not agreed
with the Dawes commission. 1t
the same conditions are still in
sisted upon now that have been
urged heretofore. the Cherokees
can do nothing less than again re-
fuse to treat and fall back upon nthe
solemn pledges Of the government
that they shall not be despoiled OF
their rights whatever they may be-.
Instead of the ratification of agree
ments by the other tribes Of the
territory being clinching argu-
ment why the Cherokees should
hasten to make similar agree
ment the reverse may prove to be
the fact. The thing for the Chero-
KEGS to do now is to watch the
workings ofthese other agreements
and to profit thereby. They
should at least try to avoid the

taws, the Chickasaws and The
