Washington, MAY 21.-The confer
ence committee on the part of the
two houses which has had charge of
the Indian appropriations bill has
reached an agreement and the bill
will be reported back to the two
houses Wednesday. All appropria-
tions for Indian Territory contained
in the bill as it passed the senate
have been agreed to in conference,
with the single exception of the ap-
preparation for the Dawes commits
sion which has been, as already
stated in this correspondence reduc-
ed from $500. 900 to $500, 900. AS the
bill as agreed upon, contains no
claim or.other Objectionable features,
the report will be approved by the
house and senate at an early date.
~
Little progress is being made by
Joint committee in charge of the
Cherokee treaty. In fact there seems
to be a general understanding that
no action will be taken on this agree
ment at this session of congress. In
the mean time objections to the pro-
visions inserted in the treaty by
Representative Curtis continue to
pour in on members of the commit
tee of the two houses. There is a
general feeling among those who
have the matter in charge that the
best solution of the entire problem
is for the secretary of the interior to
proceed with the enforcement of the
Curtis law in both the Cherokee and
Creek nations. AS there is no possi-
bility of favorable action on the
Creek treaty at this session, and
little prospect of a ratification of
the Cherokee treaty. it is probable
that the secretary of the interior
will, as soon as congress adjourns,
apply all provision of the Curtis law
to the two nations and vigorously
enforce then.

sometime ago authorizing the cutting
of timber in the Territory for con-
structive purposes, and the payment
of royalties thereon to the tribal gov
ernment, has struck snag in the
Senate committee. The bill was
championed by Western railroads
and designed for the purpose of Sc
curing ties for the construction of
the new lines of road to be built by
the Rock Island and Frisco compa-
nies. The timber for tie purposes is
largely confined to the Chickasaw
Nation aad under the rulings of the
Secretary of the Interior the timber
in that nation cannot be cut or dis
posed of except for house blocks
and fuel purposes. When the bill
reached the senate committee it was
referred to the Secretary of the In
terror for report as to it's merits.
Secretary Hitchcock has submitted
his views which are strongly against
the enactment of such legislation al
this time, the principal reason given
is that it would lead to corrupt prac'
tices. 1t is pointed out that under
such legislation members of the tribe
would take up prospective allot+
ments on the timber section an6
after disposing of the timber thereon

ing the meeting of the Cherokee
council, when attempts
nj. The hQa- =" "ele "auo
=. prominent men to secure con-
tracts with the nation for the coIlec-
ton of the money. The claim, how
ever, has been adversely recon-
mended by at least one attorney
general, and while there is disposi-
ton on the part of certain members
of! the house and senate to pay it.,
there is strong opposition in other
quarters. The leader of the move
ment at the present time is Mr..
Robert l.. Owen of Muskogee, who
has purchased the contract, secured
several years ago by Shelly, Butler
& Co., firm of prominent lawyers
in this city who were to receive
per cent. of the amount collected.
In addition to this contract with the
tribe, which, by the way, the interior
department has repeatedly refused
to approve Contracts have also
been secured with individual men,
bers of the Cherokee nation provid-
ing for an allowance OF an additional
10 per cent. for the collection of the
money, and also approving the con-
tract with the nation. These private
contracts have thrown a cloud over
the entire proposition, and it is
doubtful whether favorable reports
can even be obtained from the In
dian committees of the house and
senate. But even should such re-
ports be obtained, Speaker Hender-
son would not allow the bill to come
up for consideration at this session.
He is now putting down the thumb
screw on all claims and other bills,
aside from those carrying the regu-
lar governmental appropriations,
and thus preventing their consider
alton in the house. The promoters
of the bill, however. have perfected
one of the best organizations yet
made in behalf of this claim and are
hopeful of securing the passage of
the bill, either at this or the coming
session.

You cannot keep news, especially

Boiled Salt Meats.

The indigestible properties of boiled
ham, corned beef and other salt meats
may, according to Mrs. Parloa, the
cooking expert, be eliminated If the
meat is sufficiently boiled. The salt
toughens the fibers, and it takes per-
sistent boiling to overcome this. The
time allowed for ten pound piece is
FIVE hours, but as the pieces are apt to
be thick rather than long one Of half
this weight would need about the same
amount of time. The meat should be

OCEAN FREIGHTs ADVANCE.
Caused by the Chinese Uprising and

BALTIMORE. Aug. 1.-The trouble in
China, combined with the British-Boer war
in South Africa. is having its effect upon
the commerce Of this country. and is being
felt by Baltimore grain exporters. because
Of the rise in ocean freights.
Within the last ten or twelve DAYS there
has been a gradual increase in the rates.
The present rate OF shiHings 3 pence a
quarter for grain from range ports is the
highest paid in this city for many years
There has been advance during the last
thirty days Of from 6 70 3 pence per quar-
ter. and the result las been a decided
falling on in the grain EXPORT business
from this city Very little wheat Of any
kind is now being sent abroad By RaItj-
more almost all Of il going TO New York.
The cause OF this increase in the rates Of
ocean freight is the removal OF 4 number
OF large vessels that have been regularly
used BY exporters TO be used as transports
to China and South Africa, thereby greatly
lessening the tonnage, the scarcity Of
which has made the rates 90 Up.
Several Of the largest vessels Of the
Hamburg and the Bremen lines have been
drafted By Germany and sent to China.
number Of the Johnston like boats have
gone to South Africa. and have left a gan
here that cannot b. illed at once. Corn is
being exported now in much larger 0uau-
titles than wheat, and il is said there is a
strong probability that the rates will in
crease even further during the next two or
three weeks. Parcel room On even old
vessels has risen considerably.
