WHAT THEY THINK.
Views of Some Of the People on the New
Territory BIII-GenersIIy FaVOra-
bic Co the Proposed Measure

j. G. ThompsOn-I am anxious
for such a change as will enable us
to acquire title to our lots. Think
the Curtis bill move in the right
direction.
w. A. Payne-With a few little
changes, the Curtis bill will be
about the thing for us, 1 believe.
Capt. T. B. Johnson-I don't
know anything about the bill, but
think the land ought to be allotted
and the surplus sold; and above
all things, we ought to have a
chance to buy lots in the towns.
Max Munzesheimer-We need
municipal government and the
country people need to be taken
care of, too. / believe that the
Curtis bill is a step toward the ac-
complishment of these results.
l. r. Mason-I think the town
site provision of the Curtis bill is
good. The only question is, will
the Indians meet us half way when
we go to them to purchase town
sitei / believe they will. Any
how, l am favorable to the Curtis
bill or any other measure that will
give us town government and pub
lie schools.
A. Walcott (inter-married citi-
izen) The bill, as a whole. suits
me very well. There are, of
course, Objectionable features, but
these will likely be eliminated by
amendment.
Judge r. H. West-The power
to lease the coal lands of the In
dians carries with it the power by
the United States to sell the Indian
lands. This means a great deal.
The townsite feature of the Curtis
bill is all right-if the Indians will
sell, which very much doubt.
Judge Bradford-The bill affords
some relief, but is inadequate to
meet the demands. The worst
part of it is the absence of any pro-
vision for the education of the
children outside of the munich
palities.

Ne.tor Aranaueren Killed.

Havana, Jan. 27.-The insur-
gent general, Nestor Aranguer-
en-, who executed Colonel Ruiz,
Spanish peace commissioner
who proposed peace to him, was
slain today in San JouaQuin,
Havana province. He fell dur
ing a battle with the Spanish
battallons in a ferce engage
ment.
The body was brought here
and exposed to public gaze at
the morgue.
He was shot through the right
side three times. An adjutant
was killed at his side. The
sensation here is immense. In
the battle today the insurgents
used explosive bullets.
Arangueren was only % and
looked like a mere boy, but was
one of GomeZ's best generals.

A Pseudonym.

A lady who wanted a servant 30
badly that she took one without q
recommendation, or even an intro

into book which belonged to the

expressed in her face.
''Is this your book. Susiei" she
asked
"Yes'm."
"How is this, theni When you
came, you told me your name was

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Jan. 2S.-Wheat-Liver-

with $50, 900 reported shipped from
Argentine. Paris markets higher
and Antwerp ENTHUSIASTICALLY SO,
with a revival of a cable from
Broomha1 of a probable agitation
over Sunday of French duty again.
Foreigners were good buyers of
wheat. Total clearances we're very
large, 79O, 900 bushels, while sales of
Minneapolis mills yesterday made up
a total of 10000 barrels. Receipts
there were liberal, but demand equal
ly good. Primary receipts 354 900
against 204 900 last year. Shipments
So 900 compared with $4,000 last
year. Modern Miller reported large
increase in acreage and splendid ac-
cording TO it's observation. Cut -four
trade in the south excellent. North
west stocks will decrease a small
amount, but st. Louis stocks will de-
crease literally and predictions of
over a million decrease in visible
Monday are made. January wheat
again advanced cents per bushel
and millers were said to be appli
cants for wheat. The tendency of
the markets has been bullish after
some early liquidation and the out
look is for higher prices, we think,
Notwithstanding such a vigorous ad-
vance.
Corn-Was in request, stimulated
to some extent by strength in wheat
and by the demand for export, espe-
cially toward tSe southwest. Prim-
ary receipts, 415, ,OcO bushels, against
4S0,0O0 last year. Clearances. 951 900
bushels. Cash demand was good,
but offerings here were said to be
somewhat larger than of late.s
Oats-In sympathy with other mar
kets, prices declined on realizing,
but some 800, 900 bushels were report
ed sold for direct export. With good
cash demand and in sympathy with
other markets, an advance was start
ed carrying prices we'll up.
Provisions-Receipts of hogs at
western points. 5000, compared with
81 900 last year. Receipts here over
run considerably, and the market was
weak at the opening. Good buying,
however, carried the market up to
yesterdays prices. Trade moderate,
with smaller outside trade. Cash
trade was quiet, and the estimate Oh
tomorrow's receipts of hogs was
p, 900.

New York, Jan. 2s.-The cotton

start toward higher level Of prices.
The opening transactions were at an
advance Of 1 to points for distant

New York. Jan. 27.-Hallie
Ernine Rives, a cousin Of the
authoress, Amelie RIves, and
herself a noted writer, is i'll
with nervous prostration in the
Brooklyn sanitarium.
Her latest work, Smoking

the south for a certain crime,
with a freedom that attracted
wide attention and caused a
sensation all over the country.
She indorsed strongly the
lynchipg of negroes.
The northern press con-
demned the book scathingly,
and this criticism caused the
young writer so much worry
that she finally broke down.
Her early recovery is pre-
dicted.

CHAIR OF SURGERY IN
THE STATE UNIVERSITY
STILL VACANT FOR DIR. SHELLS,
THE LOGICAL CANDIDATE.
DR.. Williamson Is Simply Recon-
mended as Lecturer on Sur
gerry for One Year.

The recent action of the faculty Of the
State University in voting to recommend
DR.. J. NJ. williamson as lecturer on sur
gerry for the term of one year has been
misconstrued by some of the friends of
DR.. Shiels as an act of unfair treatment
to the latter. The facts. however, do not
warrant any such conclusion.
DR.. Shiels, who was associate professor
of the principles and practice of surgery
IN the medical department of the uni
versity obtained a leave of absence and
went to Manila as brigade surgeon, I'M
der Brigadier General Harrison Grey
Otis.
Soon after his departure DR.. William
E. Taylor, professor of the principles and
practice of surgery, concluded, on ao-
count of poor health, to go to Honolulu
and there take up his permanent resi-
dence. Accordingly, at the last regular
meeting of the faculty he rendered his
resignation of the chair, and 1t was for
warded to the Board of Regents.
Provision, therefore, had to be made for
the carrying on Of the course of surgery.
DIR. Shiels, the logical candidate for the
ulty at special meeting simply recon-
mended DIR. Williamson, professor of
anatomy in the medical and dental de-
partment, to fill the position of lecturer on
surgery for one year:
This action leaves the chair of surgery
still vacant, but provides for the course
of surgery to be carried on without inter-
rupIion. Thus 1t will be readily seen that
no injustice has been done DR.. Shiels nor
has any undue advantage been taken Of
his absence.

NO STAR CHAMBER TRIAL
FOR GOVERNOR BUDD
The Delaware Extradition Petition
Will Be Heard on Tuesday in
puhlic

Governor Budd last evening positive
ly fixed Tuesday as the day upon which
he will hear the petition on the part
of the Delaware authorities for the ex-
tradition of Mrs. Botkin.
Following faithfully the absurd pol
icy of absolute secrecy that has char
acterized his course throughout the
case, Chief Lees has every day during
the past week refused to make public
the day that he would appear with mis-
case before the Governor
The only fact that he has given out
is that if his efforts should prevail, the
proceedings would be held in private.
These tactics have not only tired the
public, but have decidedly wearied the
Governor himself, and he has finally
set the day himself. He has also de-
cided that he will hear the petition and
review the evidence in this city, and
with that plan in view has selected the
Palace Hotel as the place of meeting
1t may also be stated that the eff
forts of Chief Lees will not prevail-the
proceedings will be public
Just how long it will be before Gov
ernor Budd will render his decision he
himself cannot say. Should the review
ing of the prosecutions evidence not be
finished on Tuesday it will have to go
over until Thursday, as on Wednesday
the Executive has important State
business that will require his presence
in Sacramento.
AS Chief Lees has accumulated an
immense amount of matter it will prob
ably be the last of the week before
the case can be disposed of. Chief Lees
said last night that he expected to have
his evidence in shape by Monday night.
as he is working on the last of the
affidayitS
