Washington, jar. 25.-That the
people of the Indian Territory are
in a prosperous financial condition |

last. The total loans and dis
counts are $2,s52, ,620 9s, while
the individual deposits in the banks
foot mp a grand total of S3,9Sl,
77402.
That money is plentiful in the
Territory is shown by the fact that
the average reserve held by the
banks is 43 IL per cent. or more
than twice the amount required by
law This indicates that the money
now IN the national banks of the
Territory exceeds the demand for

Timber Hs,imators Begin Work.

The first party of lumber esti-

Territory left the headquarters OF

estimate the amount and value OF
TIMBER on each forty-acre tract OF
land in the uninhabited regions Of
the territory.
The estimation of the amount
and value OF the timber on such
lands in Indian Territory is made
necessary because it is part of the
of the FIVE civilized tribes
and must be taken ipto considera-
tion in determining The numoer of
dollars worth of property which
each Indian is TO receive as his

GROUND OF CONTEST.
On Which Rogers Will Fight is to Be
Conducted.

New York, Oct. 1.-THE contest over
the will of Jacob S. Rogers. who left
his millions to the Metropolitan Mu-
scum of Art will. it is said, be based
upon the claim that an agreement was
made between the testator and his
brothers, Columbus, Jason and Theo-
dore. pledging themselves to dispose of
their properties after death to members
of their own families The agreement
was carried out by Theodore, Column
bus and Jason. The agreement pro-
vided for the disposition of the bulk of
the properties. and there was nothing
to prevent any of the brothers making
minor requests to institutions or
friends. But the contestants hold that
the agreement was a bar to such dis
position as Jacob S Rogers made of the
bulk of his property The written
agreement itself has not been dis
covered and what has become of it is
q mystery
