CASE SETTLED ONCE MORE
Lynch Wins in the Ponca City Case
Before the supreme Court.

Guthrie o. T., Jan. 6.-The case Of
Barnes & Dalton vs.. James w. Lynch,
grown famous by the many turns it has
taken in the courts of this territory, was
finally disposed OF so far as the supreme
court of this territory is concerned, by
that court striking from the files the pc
tition for rehearing filed TO review the
opinion of the court upon rehearing upon
the ground that this petition for rehear
ing contains language discourteous 10 the
court.
This suit involves the title to almost all
the property in the city of Ponca City,
and the decree of the district court rem
dered by Judge Bevier while on the bench
now stands fully affirmed and vests the
title 10 the property in the Ponca City
Land and Improvement company. The
fight for the company is the outgrowth
Of trouble which arose between Barnes x
Dalton on the one hand, and J. w. Lynch,
the company and its stockholders, on the
other. TIE result is a decisive victory for
Lynch the company and its stockholders.
The plaintiff, Barnes & Dalton, had been
represented by II. b. Martin and James
3. Diggs of Perry, and George S. Green
of this city. and the defendant by Pollock
& Lafrerty of Winfield, E. Bee Guthrey
Of Ponca City. and J. W. Quick of Perry
and the fight has been long and bitter,
ana has attracted wide attention on ac-
count Of the high value of the property
contended for and the many important
legal propositions Introduced. The final
opiaion prepared for the court by Mr.
Justice McAtee is voluminous and an able
and exhaustive decision Of the entire case
upon its merits.

ACTUAL ALLOTMENT SOON
Inspector of the Dawes Commission
Makes That Prediction

Guthrie, o. T., Jan. en-. p Lyons, in
spector for the Dawes commission, IS
quoted as follows: 1T viii not be long
till there will be actual allotment in the
Chickasaw nation. L think they will be
ready to begin allotment work in the ma
ton in a very short time now The
Dawes Commission will open a land office
in Ardmore in short time, and already
a corps of surveyors is located in the
southwestern portion of the nation, ready
to go to work. The corps is in charge
of R. L. Walker, and it is the duty of
these. surveyors to cud the Chickasaw
lands into forty-acre tracts and get them
ready for allotment. The work to be
done now is what is called 'Ardmore
block" It will be surveyed, plated and
appraised and then allotment will start.
All allotments from the Chickasaw ma
ton will be issued from the office at Ard
more and from present indications it
does not appear that the time viii be
long till the Dawes Commission will be
gin to put the Cbickasaws in possession
of their allotments.

IS MERELY IN INTENT.
Santa Fe Has Not Purchased
the Augusta Grade
BUT Is LOOKING INTO IT
And May Instead of Missouri
Pacific Build the Line.
BUT IS LOOKING INTO IT

Guthrie, o. T, Jan. e.-The circulation
OF the report that the Santa Fe IS making
an attempt to- get hold Of the Augusta
branch called the Denver, Oklahoma and
Gulf. has stimulated interest in the
scheme and created no end Of comment
as to the final outcome Of the matter.
The Augusta branch was promoted it is
understood by Bailie Waggoner Of Atchi-
son, Senator Brockway of Oklahoma, and
Senator A J. Titus Of Anthony, and
while it was 10 be an Independent line,
interested parties on the inside under
stood that the Denver, Oklahoma AMI
Gulf was to be put through and sold to
the Missouri Pacific. The grade is COM
pleted to a point about twenty miles
south of Kiowa and the final survey has
been completed to Augusta, in conse-
ouence of which the latter town is on a
boom Much Of the work has been done
by farmers who have contributed their
work in preference to voting bonds. Up
until the beginning Of the cold weather
about forty men and teams were at work
on the grade Beyond grade work the
promoters didn't seem to be able 10 raise
the money to go on with the equipment
and the sale Of the enterprise was a ne
cessity, If not an agreement. The fire.
quent mention of Bailie Waggoner's name
with the scheme, coupled with the fact
that he is a Missouri Pacific man, led
other railroads to investigate the scheme.
Probably on account of some agreement
that has never become public, Bailie Wag
goner denied any interest in the new
road and the final result is that the
Santa Fe is making an investigation with
intent TO purchase 1t is generally ad-
mitted that Notwithstanding aid for the
time was secured on the statement that
it should be independent, it is generally
admitted that either the Missouri Pa
cific or the Santa Fe will get it in time
and that in either case it will be built.
The Missouri Pacific not having any line
in Oklahoma, would probably push the
work more rapidly and extend the line
clear through to Guthrie by way Of Enid.
This is the route laid out and it IS not
thought that The plan viii be changed.

the old cemetery which is now a forlorn
