meeting some of the managers OF the
Kiowa Mill. They are set of gentle
men which any community can feel
proud to possess and they represent an
enterprise which is not only a benefit II
Kiowa but the county at large. Before
the new Management took possession
the mill had not as flattering a reputa
tion as might have been desired, but
what prejudice existed has all been oy.
ercome and orders are now pouring in
compelling them to run full force night
and day. New machinery has been ad
ded and the capacity greatly increased
to accommodate the ever lncreasins

a matter Of regret to the intelh-
gent Cherokee citizen. There Is
no doubt but the business Of the
Indian would be looked after more
promptly, honestly and with less
expense aud delay than IL would
be by The constituted authorities
Of the tribe. The common citizen
would not suffer loss. bat on the
contrary would be gamer If the
administration Of affairs here were
taken entirely ont Of the hands OF
the tribe. Every one familiar
with the methods Of the tribal Of
fcials in general viii admit that
affairs are in very unsafe hands
There are many good, honest and
conscientious men ia the council
and holding Office in the Cherokee
nation, but they are not in the ma.
jOrity and are consequently power
less to control that body. If the
interior department had full sway
there would be a better chance for
an early and just settlement.
The department has made many
bluaders and some OF its arbitrary
rulings have been outrageous, but

demonstration against Turkey. The

the foregoing to a correspondent here

The equadron sailed with sealed or.
ders and proceeds first TO the island
Smyrna. think. where the admiral
will receive definite instructions as tC
the carrying out Of his sealed orders. ]
am not at liberty to say what the sealed
orders are. but the seizure OF customs
al smyrna would probably be a very
effective way OF convincing the sultan
OF Frances exhausted patience, and
that,We may have decided TO enforce
immediate execution OF the Turkish
governments engagements. We, how
ever. are very hopeful the sultan will
not compel us 10 go 10 that extreme.
The Turkish government has still three
days OF grace and we trust in meantime
to receive complete satisfaction.
we have acted very CONSIDERABLY
toward Turkey. hoping up to the last
moment she would carry out her en-
gagements. and IL IS only now. when
we find there is no serious indication Of
her doing so that we have reluctantly
resolved TO put stronger pressure TO
bear, in shape OF a naval demonstra-
ton. Now two months since the
French ambassador. VI. Constans. left
Constantinople. His departure failed
10 produce the desired effect. On con-
trary. even the quays and the Tubini
questions. which were settled by the
sultan's trades. remain unsatished.
THE Internal situation In the Turk
fish empire deferred us FOR some time
from taking drastic measures 70 en-
force our demands. But the dignity Of
France could not permit the present
state Of affairs 10 be prolonged indch-
nitely We sincerely hope the sultan
will appreciate the fact We can not any
longer be trihed with and relieve US Of
taking further steps TO safeguard our
interests"
The official was asked what would
happen in the event the French squad
ron being ordered 10 seize customs. and
II Turkish authorities resisted.
THAT Is a very unlikely contingen-
cy but II II occurs. I suppose We shall
have TO lombard the port. We do not
want bloodshcd. and I do not believe
there will be any occasion for IT,"

Turkey VIII Resist Demand to Return

Constantinople. Oct. sl-rho Turk.
ish government is already preparing to
resist the anticipated demand OF
the United States for the repayment Of
ransom necessary TO secure the release
Of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone Tho porte re-
pudiates all responsibility for tho kid
mapping Of Miss Stone and maintains
that the United States has no claim
against Turkey and that therefore the
latter ia justified in refusing 10 recoup
the United States for money expended
in her release. A high Turkish official
said Turkish resistance OF any claims
would be based on the contention:
"First-That Miss Stone. although
warned Of the dangers Of the road, per-
sisted in travelling; second, that she did
not notify the authorities Of her inten-
ton IN order 90 obtain any escort. which
precaution even foreign consuls have
always taken when travelling IN such
outlying, insecure districts of the em.
pire. sud third, that tho brigands who
kidnapped Miss Stone and her compan-
ion were Bulgariaus AMI that the coup
was pannei In Bulgaria and that the
sanctuary was found in Bulgarian ter
ritory."
