NOT on WAR PATH.

| South MoAlister, l. T., January 2S -
Daniel Bell chief OF the Choctaw Snakes
when interviewed today, stated that the
Indians are not on the war path and
will not molest white people or their
property. RAILROAD property is safe.
There is no danger of bridges being
burned. The Indians organizations as
perfected for mutual protection viii be
kept up, but not as menace to the
white people. Chief Bell claims to have
authority from the President to be gov
ernor by the treaty of 1880, and none
other is recognized. The Choctaw Snakes
want to hold lands In common and are
opposed to allotment. No further trouble
is anticipated.

erable anxiety is felt by the officials OF

to be constructed under the treaty of
1866, upon which the full bloods claim
co stand, are this Choctaw, Oklahom oma and
Gulf railroad and the st. Louis and
San Fraucisco railway. They decided
therefore, TO destroy the Missouri, Kan

Six hundred Light horsemen took oath

attack different parts OF the Missouri,
Kansas s. Texas, and burn bridges and
trestles. Rennstt and ShoenfeIdt believe

The finance committee of the Landsthing
