CHIEF LONE WOLF
BRINGS NEW SUIT
10 ENJOIN SECRETARY GAGE.
Litigation of cOnfederated Tribes
of Kiovvas, cou,anches and
Apaches Over Purchase Of
Their Lands Is Renewed.

Lone Wolf principal chief of the Kiowa
tribe of Indians, and others. representing
the confederated tribes of Kiowas, Com
anches and Apaehes. fled a petition in the
supreme Court Of the District today.
asking that Secretary Gage be
enjoined from paying out to members OF
the tribes named s.. .000. .000, held for their
benefit and use. It is alleged that the
act Of Congress, providing for the appro-
priatioR Of this money, is void and is
based upon false and unfounded represen-
tation
AIIege Misrepresentation.
It is explained that through fraudulent
representations the members CT a certain
commission purchased 1900. 600 acres of
The lands OF the confederated tribes of
kiowes. Conanehes. and Apaehes, at The
rate Of 81 per acre The contract of sale,
it is claimed, was gained through the
inability Of the rank and file of the mem
bers Of the confederated' tribes to under
stand English
As matter OF fact. it is declared, the
agreement entered into between the rep
resentatives Of the confederated tribes
and the purchasers was Tor $3.50 Der acre
for the land. Because of misrepresenta-
tions by the members of the commission
end the duplicity OF the interpreter. the
contract o. sale which was signed call
ed for only S1-00 per acre
Interest Less Than Rent.
It is further alleged that during the
time the purchase price for the land,
81. goo, ,000. should remain in the Treas
ury Of the United States, the Indians
were to be allowed $1eo, 600 a year as
interest. IN reference to this phase of
the case. IL IS stated that the land In
question is leased 20 cattIemen for
S330.000 yearly. and il is contended that

$500 600.

LITERATURE FOR LIBRARIES.

SeE5utOF Hoar Wants Free Copies of
E.ConsressionHI Record"
a resolution was offered in the Senate
today by Mr. Hoar, providing for the
printing OF larger number Of copies Of
the Congressional Record, ~ for free dis
tri5ation to libraries and elsewhere He
commented upon the Importance Of Con
gressionaI proceedings and debates, and
upon the fact that they can only be found
in the Congressional Record.
Mr. Hale remarked humoTously that he
did not think the people were hungering
and thirsting after the Congressional
Record.
"Oh yes he said in reply to q whis-
pered comment by Mr. HoaF. Z know the
proper meaning of the word thirst and
have given illustrations of it several
times in company with the Senator from
Massachusetts,
I do moi object to some increase OF
the Congressional Record although I
do not consider there is am. general de-
sire to read it. The newspapers Of the
great cities give practically no report Of
the discussions OF Cong ess. and the pre-
sumption is that they do not. because
their readers do not want it. It is en-
tirely different with EagIfsh newspapers.
The great newspa pers Of London. and
even Of the provincial cities, report not
only the proceedings. but the discussions
in Parliament n great lcagth"
After some more remarks to the same
puTpo-t, the resolution vas referred TO
the Committee on Printing.

LONDON Dee I'm a speech at CIas-

that the time had come when he was able
to do what he wished respecting the con-
centration camps in South Africa
He proposed to break up the Western
camps, to reduce the numbers OF all Of
them. and TO send the overflow from
the Orange River Colony into the Cape
Colony. and from the TransvaaI into Ma
tai
He hoped TO provide permanent shelters
By the coast. but it must not be expected
considering the peoples habits. that the
mortality would be reduced TO the nor

Mr. Brod-iCk dId not defend the con
centrati0D camps as such but as military
necessities They had proved the most
difficult problem ever undertaken in the
annals Of war and had been carried
through with credit to British humanity,

Thus far Speaker Henderson has not
Withdrawn his resignation, rendered sew

an official apology for the diseourteous
treatment which was accorded him He
promised to give the matter eonsidera-
tion. As the case now stands he still has
the matter under advisement and the res
ignation has not been accepted in the
nope that it may be withdrawn
There is some division among the mem
5ers of the club over the matter. While
the great majority of them desire to have
the resignation Withdrawn there are 9TH
srs who insist that General Henderson
did wrong in violating the rules Of the
club. and that he should not be entitled
to privileges denied to other members.
The incident following not long after
the resignation of Admiral Dewey from
the presidency OF the club. has caused
much comment among both members and
