ashore yesterday morning with a bullet
wound in his right breast. The officers
in charge of the troops at once attempted
to block every avenue of Information con-
corning the shooting, and were so far sue
cessful as to keep many of the true de-
tails of the affair in the shade Pyre

claims that his wound is the result of an
accident, but it is the general belief that
he was shot deliberately and that he is

Just before the sailing of the transports
three shots are reported to have been
heard by those on the dock and on the
deck of the vessel. They came from be-
low, and soon Trumpeter Lovegren, who
did the shooting, was arrested by the
military authorities and the wounded
man was taken ashore. None of those
who were present with the principals
would reveal anything and 1t appears as
if their ears and eyes must have been
closed. Lovegren simply said II was an
accident and omitted details, and Pyre,

LoVegren had a 44-caliber pistol in his
hand and was fooling with it. Sergeant
Wynne told him to put ii up, but he re-
piled that it was not loaded. To prove
this he pulled the trigger three times.
The first two times it snapped, and after
the third there was a report and I felt
a bullet enter my body. That Is all l
know about 1t. 1t was purely accidental. :"
The bullet entered under the right nip

by physicians at the Preside Hospital
about an inch from the interior superior

sidered dangerous unless blood poisoning
should result. Lovegren will be tried by
the military authorities at Manila.
1t is matter of general belief that both

THE TRANSPORTS SAIL.
Some Tardy Soldiers Create
a Little Fun at the
Wharf

The transports Senator and Ohio sailed
for Manila yesterday. There was a lively
scene Immediately after the vessels had
left the wharf. caused by about ten SOL
diers, who had transportation, but who
found themselves still on land Tuesday
night the regiment which sailed was paid
off. The temptation TO patronize the
water front dives and celebrate their de-
parture became strong for some of them
and there was a general stampede over
the vessels sides. The men proceeded
to lay the foundation for a glorious spree,
and many of them failed to return at the
hour set for departure. They put in an
appearance later, however. and sighted
the transports out in the stream. With
war whoops and wild gesticulation they
attracted the attention of those on board
and Whitehall boats were lowered ia

yet recovered from the effects of their

There has been a great deal OF
unsettled effort Of people to get IN
to the Indian Territory and get q
start on "the ground floor" as it
were. when the Indian country IS
opened up for settlement. These
people Of unsettled habits are go
ing over the country trying to get
an opening, long before it Is ready.
They have mistaken ideas about
the Indian country, that it is TO be
opened for settlement, that 1T IS
ready to be settled on by whites,
and that it will be subjectto claims
Of settlers, like the Oklahoma
country was. This isa very much
mistaken idea. The Indian coun-
try is the property of the Indians.
The lands belong to them now and
will after allotment. There Will
never be a time when lands can
be settled upon and taken up, but
ali land that is held must be by
purchase from the Indians. There
will never be an opening for
whites, except such as buy lands,
and pay a fair price for it. 10 all
who have means to buy property
there will be a fine opening in the
territory, and to such there will be
much opportunity, as they Will
have a chance to get a good home
very cheap, and in a country al
ready settled and civilized. Those
expecting to get land for nothing,
had best stay away from the terri
tory at present.-Denison Herald
