Lettson claimed that the deed was stolen
from him three years later, and it has
never ince been seen.
BY his English wife Carver had one
child, a daughter, named Martha, who
was reared by Sir Richard and Lady
Pearson, and when grown eloped with a
sailor. A London firm induced the newly
married couple to convey to them the
Carver grant, and the firm dispatched an
agent named Clarke to go to the m
dians and secure new deed, but Clarke
was murdered In New York and never
accomplished his mission. In 1894 these
claimants conveyed their claim to Ed
ward Houghton, of Vermont for $50 600
sterling, but prior thereto a new claim
ant had appeared in the person Of Rev
Samuel Peters, who asked congress to
confirm the grant, and testified before
the committee in 1906 that George I'll
had approved the grant, and ordered
transport ship to take him to the grant
via the Mississippi, to take possession in
fact. But the Battle of Bunker Hill this
time interfered.
The Sioux Indians, however have dis
puted the right of the two Indians named
to make such conveyance as claimed
by Carver

that she should do the honors on this

crowd adjourned to the village square
where the remainder of the programme
was carried out. The natives made
bounteous offerings of fruit and pro-
visions TO the governor many of the
presents having been sent from the re-
motest islands of the group. The noon
hour was given over to feasting on roast
pig, yams and native deiicacies. In the
afternoon there was much dancing by
picked parties of natives, especially chos

Quay TO learn that his friend PIatt had
hled' upon his (Quay's) old sat in TIE
senate than was the course of Mr.. Hanna.
Ihe hling of a mans seat in the senate
is very delicate matter-one concerning
which senators are extremely sensitive.
1t is so delicate a matter that It is pro-
found secret, intrusted TO none but the
confidential employe of the senate in
charge of the seats, who would under no
circumstances reveal it. The discovery +
made only after the old occupant Of the
seat has retired and the new Cna taken
possession.
Filing on a s9ratcr's Sc is pu. ting your
name down for it in anticipation OF its
being vacated. To file on a seat implies a
belief that it will be vacated, ana senator's
are usually sensitive about having their
misfortune thus anticipated 1t is pl?ticu-
larly painful to find that this has been
done by a friend. The seats in the sen te
are not all equally desirable. When a de
Sirable seat is about to be vacated all
senator's who are not satisfactorily seated
set their eyes upon it. Promptness is es-
sential to success in this dignifed AMI
decorous secret scramble for a good seat.
but there is something ungenerous in as
suming too soon that a seat will be Va
Gated. 1t requires delicate discrimination
to observe the proprieties i'll this matter
If senator making a hard fight for re-
election finds that some one-he cannO4
know who-has filed on his seat it CD
crates like a hoodoo. He is like a man
marked for death, and the unknown
prophet Of evil is an object Of resentment
When he Is gone and the seat taken he
thus discovers who was first to anticipate
his misfortune, but he cannot tell how
far in advance of the vacancy the applica-
ton for the seat was filed. That is a Sc
cret kept from every senator Usually
senator does not know that any cna has
filed upon his seat in advance of his re-
tirement.
Some years ago a Western man who
was having very hard fight for re-
election, but who felt confident of sue
cess, discovered that some ore of his col
leagues had filed On his seat. He could
not tell who it was, but the knoWieGc.
made him lose confidence in his fight
His resentment was Sc great that he set
about systematically to tell every senator
On his side of the chamber what he
thought of the man who had thus antci
pated his defeat, being sure that in this
way he would make the right man secret,
ly feel the weight of his displeasure 1t
turned out afterward that the seat went
to man to whom he had denounced the
unknown with particular bitterness of
nVecttVe.
1t has been so long since Quay's seat
was placed in jeopardy that it is obvious
that the man who got 1t must have filed
on it a long time ago. 1t is therefore
easy for Mr.. Quay to infer that Mr..
Platts friendship for his fellow boss did
not make him forget his own interest,
and that he quietly made the most of lie
prophetic vision. The evidence IS plain
to avail himself Of the seat thus vacated
that no one got ahead of Mr.. Platt in an
ticipating Mr. Quay's downfall. 1t may
be regarded as rather queer, however,
that Mr.. Penrose was SO well prepared
by Mr.. Platt.
Such are the delicate attentions sena-
tors pay their parting colleagues

Afterward he sailed for Cuba, and when
the campaign ended there he returned to
this country, but was soon again afioat
on the u. S. S. Abarenda, bound for the
Samoan Islands, where the presence of
one Of the United States ships was deem
ed conducive to the welfare Of American
residents during a threatened upheaVal.
In the progress Of events Mr. Sheire has
been advanced to the position of chief
yeoman, and in this capacity attended a
great celebration in the American Sa-
moan Islands, attendant upon the flag
raising there, where the trouble brewing
had been satisfactorily adjusted by the
three powers, the United States, Eng
land and Germany. The f1ag-raising was
a grand event in the history Of the ISL
ands, in which the natives, foreigners
and sailors from vessels of the three ma
tions participated. The festivities, last
ing several days, are described by Mr.
Bheire in a letter to a friend in this city
as follows with the illustrative pictures
here reproduced, as taken by the writer,
which are the first Of the kind to reach
the United States:
1.-The tiag-raising over the Samoan ISL
ands belonging to the United States took
place yesterday. The weather was
cloudy and 1t rained heavily before the
ceremonies, out subsequently cleared up
so that the glorious stars and stripes
were unfurled to the tropical breezes
amid burst of warm southern sunshine,
that seemed to cause all nature to smile
The flag-pole is situated on the hillside
and il the rear of the United States naval
cOaling station, now under construction
surrounded by dense tropical foliage and
overlooking PagO Pago harbor. The Ger
man man-of-war CormOrant, with many
prominent business men, came down from
Apia, the principal village Of the German
Samoan islands. and all on board took
part in the ceremonies.
THE procession to the flag pole started
1T 10 o'clock in the morning, headed by
Commander B. f. Tilley, U. S. N, fol-
lowed by the officers of both the Ameri-
can and the German ships. Next march
ed the members of the different mission
ary societies represented in the islands
and the native chiefs, while in the rear
was a detachment of blue jackets from
the Abarenda. Arrived at the hillside,
Commander Tilley read the proclamation
and the treaty of the three powers and
his order to appoint a governor of the
Samoan islands lying east of 40 degrees
longitude west. Prayer by Rev. Cooper,

into the matter exhaustively and en-
phasizes the fact that the British gov
ernment had made no modification In
evidence to madify the fact that three
years before Carver left Boston for his
travels, in the course Of which the pre-
tended grant was made, the king issued
a decree prohibiting any private person
taking grants of land occupied by IN
dams. The sovereignty thus asserted be-
came actual later and passed. by the
treaty of 17S5, to the United States.
Carver, as a British subject was in
capable of taking title from the Indians,
even if the latter attempted to give it.
But the claim was taken up and Wig
orously pressed by the descendants of
Carver or their representatives What
would now be called a syndicate was
formed by Dr.. Peters to secure from
congress a confirmation OF the grant,
and three different attempts were made,
one in 1863, another in 1896 and the last
in 1923 Each failed because no deed was
presented, because of the prohibitive de-
cree of the king, and, what was quite
as fatal, the land granted was outside of
the territory occupied by the Naudowes-
sizes, or Sioux, and was wholly within that
of the ChippeWas.
