FRYE ON THE TREATY.
The Senator From Maine Makes
Some Timel.' tuggt tiOns.

Washington, Dec, Ex-senator Frye
talked today with star reporter with
respect to the conditions attending and
resulting from the peace negotiations.
with respect to the frequently repeas-
ed statement 81 press dispatches that the
sentiment Of the powers, with the excep-
ton Of England was opposed to the I'm
tied states and looked with dlsfavor up
on the attitude Of this government in deal
ing with Spain. Senator Frye said:
Il saw no evidence Of such sentiment
existing outside Of France and In France
that sentiment appeared to be TO the
press which does not reflect the senti-
ment Of the nation nor the people gener-
ally.
do YOU thing there will te any restorn-
ton Of cordial relations between Spain
and the United states?'
Il think that very soon after the rati-
location Of the peace treaty and the res
toration Of diplomatic relations there
will be no difficulty about negotlauong
commercial treat and n treaty for the
release Of prisoners and such other mat
ters directed toward the perfect restora-
ton and friendly relation between the two

SCHENING TRADERS
Do Not Want the 0sages to Get
Out of Debt.

Pawhuska, okla. Dec. 20. Especial cor

about to be made by the Usage traders,
through their lobbyists in Washington.
Ex-Governor Crawford. Of Kansas. and
ex-senator Blair Of New Hampshire. to

a matter OF fact, II the truth were known
these same traders ar in debt to the
Osages thousands of dollars.
The tribe of Usage Tnli.us has f5f
years been drawing nnu!tles In quarter
ly payments amounting to $500 10000 t.r-
nually, while within the last ten years
they have drawn half a million extra for
paying these debts. The facts are the
traders do not want them out OF debt;
II they were and the cash paid directly
to the Indians, the traders would not get
ten per cent OF what was paid out, for
the II dians can with the cash, get their
goods nifty 10 enc hundred per CEN cheap

Indians hcneva that the greater part (
the debt claimed by these traders are un-
just; for they have at every payment
paid to the traders the money that thew
have been credited with II. as their
debt is constantly increasing Instead OF
diminishing.
The mixed bloods, or progressive ele-
ment, are the ones that are urging this
draft on the Usage treasury, as they are
hopelessly I'm debt. or the majority OF
them are, at least There is not a
shadow OF a doubt in the minds OF well
informed men through the country ad-

out the full-bloods would be as hopeless
