Washington, July a.-Secretary Hitch
cock has decided that there is no au-
thority of law permitting delay until
October 1, in the opening of the Wieh>
tia Indian reservation in Oklahoma az
desired by certain cattle interests
The secretary's announcement fol-
lowed hearing which he had given to
representatives of the 1Rssees and of
companies which had loaned money on
reservation cattle owned by the lessees.
The cattlemen have paid the money up
to October 1, and say an injustice
would be done them if the reservation
should be opened at the date proposed.
There was very full and free dis
cussion, but the secretary did not feel
that he had authority to grant the de-
lay asked for. While he has announced
no new formal decision in the matter
his views are to the effect stated and
the preparation will be made for open
ing of the lands for settlement next
month
