According to Dun's review gross earn
ings of all railroads in the United States
reporting for April to date are s23.5 oh,
a gain of 73 per cent over last year, and
us per cent over 1888. The increase con-
tinues mainly on Southern, Southwestern.
and Pacific roads. St. Paul reports an
increase in earnings for the third week,
but the loss on granger roads is still l9
per cent. Central Western roads report
a small gain. Compared with 1889 earn
ings continue very heavy on all classes
of roads. Below are given earnings of

The railroads traversing Texas ana
nearby states are earnestly looking into
the possibilities of Texas oil as fuel.
and tests are being made on engines OF
several of these foads. If the oil Is at
an suitable or adequate its cost undoubt-
edly would be less than the cost OF coal,
which is necessarily a large item in the
expense of operating a railroad, so that
an important question of economy is at
stake President Charles NJ. Hays, of
the Southern Pacific, is quoted in an Aus
tin despatch as saying that If tests OF
the oil now being made by his engineers
show proper results and the cost of the
oil is sufficiently below what is now paid
for coal, the oil will be substituted for
coal throughout the Whole Southern Pa
cific system. The Southern Pacific, ii
thus appears. was not satisfied with Its
tests OF the oil of California, which pre-
| eeded Texas oil in the prevailing boom
| or it would not be experimenting with
Texas oil.

The new board of directors of the
American Steel and Wire Company is
minus John w. Gates and minus num-
Der of his associates-in fact, minus the
old element which Wall Street used TO be-
lieve was more particularly concerned
with the stock market or speculative end
of the company. Mr.. Gates friends claims
for him that he retires with flying colors,
having survived several attempts TO Dust
him On the other hand it is commonly
reported that the new turn Is not alto
gether TO his liking. 1t IL said he earn
estly desired an important place In the
affairs of the United States Steel Corpora
ton, a membership in, II not the chair
manship of, one of its committees, but that
Mr. Morgan would have none of him. The
result is that he sewers mis- official connec-
ton with the giant Steel Trust altogether,
since his resignation of chairman of the
board of directors of the American Steel
and Wire Company leaves him without
voice in the affairs of the big concern.
The REORGANIZATION of the Wire Company S
board Will be followed in quick order by
the reorganization of the boards of all the
other constituent companies OF the United
States Steel Trust. 1t is Mr.. Morgan 5
plan to have their boards less cumbersome
as to size than when they were independ-
ent trusts. and to have his leading lieuten-
ants dominate in each one of them The
new Steel and Wire board, as hrst an
nornced in Wall Street, includes Messrs
Edenborn, Ward, Gary. Schwab, heeie

ON MEASURE
Known as The Appropriation Bill
Another Amendment Prohibit
ing the Addition Of Names
After Commission Fin
ishes Its Labors.

The Indian appropriation bill,
which the senate subcommittee on
Indian affairs has been working on
for the past three weeks, was prac-
tically completed Monday and will
be ready for report to the full COM
mittee today. It is expected that
the bill will be passed by the sem
ate during the coming week.
A number Of changes were made
at the session Of the subcommittee
Monday.
One Of the amendments which
was agreed upon was to provide
authority for the closing OF the
rolls of the Five Civilized Tribes.
The full text of the amendment, as
finally adopted, is AS follows:
"The rolls made by the commits
sion TO the Five Civilized Tribes,
when approved by the secretary of
the interior, shall be final, and the
persons whose names are found
thereon shall alone constitute the
several tribes which they repre-
sent, and the secretary of the in
terror is authorized and directed to
fix a time for closing said rolls,
after which no name shall be added
thereto"
Another change was an amend
ment providing that in case where
the town site commissioners of the
Choctaw and Chickasaw Nation re-
fuse to act under the appointments
made by the councils, the secre-
tary of the interior is authorized
to appoint commissioners.

IS NOT SUFFICIENT
Cause Why the New Treaty Should
Not be Ratified is the Opinion
Of Col. Churchill Who
Talks Interestingly en-
the Subject.

Col. Frank G. Churchill, revenue
inspector for the Cherokee nation,
who has made Vinita his head.
quarters for some time past, left
today with Mrs. Churchill to re-
sumo his residence at Muskogee.
When asked for his views upon
Cherokee affairs in general the
popular official said: II never
mix in questions belonging to any
other department than the one |
officially represent. am in thor
ough sympathy with the Cherokee
people and desire to see them get
everything that belongs to them as
speedily as possible.
"In my opinion, however, the
people should cast aside the bug
bear that seems to confront them
that there are people and officials
who do not want them to have all
that is coming to them. They
should pay less attention and de-
vote less time in their endeavor to
find something to criticise on the
part OF the officials.
''The situation is, to my mind,
less complicated than all this fuss
warrants. There are two things to
be done-adopt a treaty and COM
plete the enrolment.
THE assertion is generally
made that no treaty providing for
the allotment of 80 acres can be
ratified. This is wrong. The
government contemplates the al
lotment Of land SO that each person
entitled will get an equal share. III
one man chooses first grade land
and only receives 80 acres, he is
certainly getting an equal share
with the man who chooses his
allotment on fifth grade land and
who gets 4C9 acres.
"A treaty is necessary and the
sooner one is ratified the better for
the people. There is approx
mately 5,lOO,Cc0 acres of land to
be allotted and, if the pending
treaty is not ratified. there will
certainly be another delay. TIE |
people should bear in mind that
the two great things now confront
ing them, and the only two in my
opinion Of consequences, is the rat
ification Of a treaty and allotment.
The other questions are simply, at
this time side issues and are not
worthy Of the fuss being made
over them"
