OPENING OF INDIAN LANDS.
President Will Issue the Proclama-
ton in a Few Days.

washington, June 27.-There is reason
to believe that the drawings which will

of the Kiowa Comanche and Apache
reservations in Oklahoma will be con-
Quoted in Washington. The prOclana-
tion will be out in a few days.
It IS urged that if the drawings are
conducted here under the direct super
vision Of the government officials and
in one of the department buildings there
will be no opportunity for the claim to
be made that there was unfairneSs or
favoritism shown. 1t is generally un-
derstood that all of the operations in
the new country, SO far as the assign
ment of homesteads and the regulations
for opening Of the new country will be
under the personal supervision of Gov.
Richards, assistant commissioner of the
general land Office. He has lived for
many years in the southwest and is
familiar with big land transactions. He
has just returned from q trip to the
reservation, where he located the coun-
ty lines and laid out the county seats.
While in the new country the governor
but named them. He named the one a
few miles from Fort Sill. I-awton- He
says he was prompted to do this because
of the fact that General I.awton was for
some time e in charge Of Fort Fort sill, sin post;

of which it is the center for so many
years.
In laying out the county lines Governor
Richards was obliged to make some

CONFESSES TO MURDER.
Dying Man Solves a Mystery Of Some
Months Standing.

vinita, I. T.. June 27.-George williams.
lying on his death bed, confessed to be-
ing an accomplice in the murder last
September at Pryor creek of z. T. Smith
and Green Smith, of Sweden, Mo. In his
statement Williams also implicated VIII
liam Nichols of Ninita. William G. Smith
and Lon Smith. of Pryor Creek. and John
Smith. the latter now serving a term in
the Kansas state penitentiary for cattle
stealing Nichols and the two first named
Smiths were arrested today.
The double murder was committed for
robbery. and the officials had given up
hope of finding the murderers. In his
statement Williams said the murdered
men were enticed to a point about two
miles south Of Pryor Creek under pre-
tense of engaging in game Of cards,
and We're shot down. Both men carried
a large sum of money. which they in
tended to invest in land. After the com
mission of the crime Wuli3mS said the
money was divided and the bodies placed
on the railroad tracks to divert suspicion.
The bodies were later exhumed by order
of relatives. when the evidence of mur-
der was first found. NO clue to the muir
ders was found. however, and the crime
has remained a mystery

SURPLUS S77.OOO.OOO.
What the Yearly Treasury
Statement Will Show.

Washington, June 27.--With the pres
ent week the fiscal year of the govern
ment closes. and Uncle Sam will close
a set of books showing the most pros
porous period in his history. The treas
ury statement to be issued next week
when all the figures are in will show
that during the fiscal year which ends
on Saturday night the receipts of the
government have exceeded the expend-
lures by about n million dollars.
This showing, two years after for
eign war, and while the expensive re-
suits of that war were still in evidence
is believed to be unequaled in the fin
ancial history of any nation.
The treasury balance sheet will show
receipts of about 587 million dollars,
and expenditures of $510, 900, 900. This
surplus of $77. 900, 600 is in the face OF
and navy, as well as for the civil ad-
ministration of the colonial territories.
The repeal of certain portions of the
war revenue act viii cost the govern
ment about 40 million dollars annually,
so that the next years the surplus will
not be over $35, 900, COO, and probably less
as government expenses constantly in
crease. while receipts gain but slowly.
While the treasury is already gloat-
ing over its successful record for the
fiscal year, ending June 30 1901, the ad-
ministration is prepared to shout still
more over the marvellous developm ent
of the foreign trade of the United
States.
The figures will show a balance of
trade in favor of the United States of
about six hundred and seventy five mil
forty-fve million dollars more than for
the previous year

mer diminution during the hot months.
The farmers are also getting their
full share Of the good times. There is
a promising outlook for a big grain crop
throughout the country as a whole;
while in states like Kansas and Ne
braslza the yield is 50 great that there
is great dinculty IN finding enough
hands to harvest it. At the same time.
the news comes that crops are short
abroad. and this insures a profitable
market for the surplus product of
American fields.
It is a good time to make money, and
also a good time to save some of it.
Prudence does not disregard the possi-
bility OF a rainy day when the sun is

PRIZE CASES.
Nearly Million Dollars Awarded by
Court Of CLAIMS.

Washington, June 27.-Judge Bradley,
in the equity court today, decided the
Manila bay and Santiago bay prize
cases. The decision is in favor of the
claimants as to vessels captured and
as to property taken from vessels so
captured, but against them as to prop
erty captured ashore. The decision
holds that vessels sunk and afterWard
raised were captured and not destroy
ed; that property captured ashore is
not subject to prize; that the property
taken from vessels sunk and not claim
ed as prizes for which bounty was given
is prize; that the cascoes or cargo
were captured CT Manila are not prize.
captured at Manila are not prize.
According to counsel the claimants in
the Manila case receive a total Of $685.
600 divided among about 1000 people;
and the claimants in the Santiago case
viii get in the neighborhood of $500, 900
distributed among about 5000 persons.
These figures, however, are not final.
These amounts are in addition to the
bounties already allowed by the court
of claims.

Many varying estimates are ahoat re-

are more conservative declare that S125
