IMPORTANT LEGAL POINT.
Agreement Has Exclusive Jursa-
tIOn Over Tribal AffaIra.


VIM. Murray, an attorney of
Tishomingo, raised a novel point
of jurisdiction before Judge Town
send yesterday by a motion for a
writ of prohibition and mandamus
against Taylor Potts, county and
probate Judge of Pamela county,
Chickasaw nation, to prevent
proceeding by the tribal court in
the probate of the will of Mrs. M.
T. Gooding, deceased, alleging that
the plaintiff, Mrs. E. A. Watkins,
a legatee and distributor of said
estate, owned certain rents and
lands devised and bequeathed by
said will, and that the same Is a
controversy growing out of the
use, occupation, ownership and
possession of real estate, and that
under the Atoka agreement ex-
elusive jurisdiction is given to the
United States courts, irrespective
of race or citizenship, of all such
questions
A section of the agreement reads
as follows:
1t is further agreed that the
United States courts now existing,
or that may be hereafter created in
the Indian Territory, shall have
exclusive jurisdiction of allcontro-
versies growing out of the titles,
ownership, occupation. possession
or use of real estate, coal and
asphalt in the territory occupied
by the Choctaw and Chickasaw
tribes; and of all persons charged
with homicide, embezzlement, bri-
berry and embracery, breaches or
disturbances of the peace, and
carrying weapons, hereafter COM
mitted in the territory of said
tribes, without reference to race
or citizenship of the person or
persons charged with such crime. "
Mr.. Murray maintained that the
familiar rule of construction ap-
piled to laws, constitutions or
contracts. The expression of one
or more things excludes all 9TH
ers" must apply in the cOnstruc-
ton of the Atoka agreement, and
that, therefore, the probate Of wills
belonged to the Chickasaw courts
except, wherein arose, as in this
case, a controversy involving the
use, occupation, ownership or
possession of real estate. That
these exceptions to the jurisdiction
of the Chickasaw court merely
proved and established the rule,
giving total jurisdiction to the
tribal courts of all cases between
Indians, both civil and criminal
except those enumerated in the
agreement and expressly granted
to the United States courts.
After the argument Judge Town
send granted the writs Of prohib-
ition and mandamus, directing the
Chickasaw Judge and clerk to
transmit all papers to the U. S.
courts for trial. This is the first
case of the kind since the adoption
of the Curtis bill and agreement,
and is viewed with interest.
