THE INDIANS

They Will Attempt to Prevent Skaters
Army Staying at MOntauk Point
A Legal Contest Likely.

New YORK, Aug. 6.-The Times Gays :
There is likelihood of legal contest
growing out of the establishment of the
new camp at Montauk Point. Scott and
Treadwell, of this city, attorneys for
the Montauk tribe of Indians, has served
notice on United States attorney Griggs
that they claim ownership of the land,
and protest against dealings for posses
sion of the point by the United States
government with the Long Island Rail-
way Company.
FormerJudgeScott said last night that
the notice was served because his clients
did not wish to be held guilty of laches
by failnre to assert their right at all
times when their rights were ignored.
'If the United States government
fails to recognize the rights of the In
dians," Judge Scott said, "proper pro-
ceedings will be instituted to compel it
to do so. The railroad has no title to
this land, has been from the beginning
trespasser, and so will be the govern
ment also if it occupies any part of Mon
tauk Point covered by the claim Of the
Indians, unless the occupancy is author
lied by the Montauk tribe"

GOING IN FOR POULTRY.

American Countess with Feathereo
Treasures in England.
Owing to her extreme youth at the
time of her marriage the countess OF
Craven was expected to have troubled
life in English society. Miss Bradley
Martin, it will be remembered, was
barely II when she married the earl OF
Craven in New York. According to all
accounts the gloomy predictions have
not been fulfilled. Lady Craven has
grown in graces since being transplant
ed from her native land and is now
even more comely than she was In her
maiden days. Her somewhat unique
fad is poultry raising, in which she mas
been remarkably successful. A writer
in London society journal has this to
say on the subject:
"Such multiplicity Of varieties and
colors as one finds in the Countess OF
Craven's f1ocks at Coombe abbey is ab-
solutely beyond description. In fancy
waterfowl her ladyship is especially
rich, and her pride in the various treas
ures that inhabit her charming war
Wickshire home is justiiable. What
ornamental duck breeder does not fear
competition with Lady Craven's multi
colored Mandarins, Carolinas, and Ba-
hamas? And what visitor to the dairy
or Crystal Palace show has not been
struck with the beauty of those birds,
whose dazzling brilliancy stamps them
as the most elegant of the webfooted
tribe? Likewise in the ornamental
geese classes her ladyship's name is
found at the principal shows, represent
ed by her wonderful Gray Ceriopsis,
white feathered Sebastopol or beauti-
full barred Magellanic. But one circum-
stance above all others has established
Lady Craven's name in the poultry
fancy, for in her we have the pioneer
exhibitor of the handsome butf-laced
Wyandotte, an American variety that
