CHEROKEE NATION OBJECTS.
Suit Brought to Prevent Grant of
Mining LeaseS

Suit to enjoin Ethan Allan Hitchcock
Secretary Of the Interior, from granting
mining leases on the lands belonging to
the Cherokee nation Of Indians in the In
dian Territory to the Cherokee Oil and Gas
Company Of Arkansas or any other corpo-
ration or persons not citizens Of the Chero-
kee nation was filed today in the Supreme
Court of the District Of Columbia by Thos
NJ. Burlington, Joseph NJ. La Hay, John r.
Mcintosh and Henry c. Meigs, who are
officers Of the nation and who sue as well
for themselves as for all other citizens Of
the Cherokee nation Of Indians residing in
the Indian Territory
A rule was issued against the Secretary
Of the Interior requiring him to show cause
october II why the injunction should not
be granted. 1t is understood that several
applications for mining leases on Indian
lands are pending in the Interior Depart
ment. William NJ. Springer is solicitor for
the complainantS.
In the bill it is alleged that the Chero-
KEGS, by treaty proclaimed May 2S. 1928.
were granted 100000 acres of land, with
the reservation only of the right to permit
other tribes of red men to get salt from
any saline or salt plain that might be
found within the limits of the grant. Later
a further grant Of 100000 acres was made
to the Cherokee nation. 1t is alleged. The
land was conveyed to the nation by pat
ent.
Inc ldHQS oI tne CnerOKee nation, II ID
said, will, in the near future, be allotted
to the citizens thereof, and 1t is the desire
of the citizens to take their allotments free
from any incumbrance whatever, and espe-
cially free from any mining claims or
leases. The bill recites that 1t Is understood
the Secretary of the Interior is giving ia
vorable consideration to an application for
a lease of fifteen years to an oil company,
thus threatening to deprive the Cherokees
of their right to the exclusive use and
occupation of the lands To grant the lease,
1t is alleged, would be violation Of the
rights of property secured to the citizens of
the United States by the Constitution
The Cherokee Indians were granted citi-
zenship by special act of Congress. 1t is
said the land in question is rich in oil
and quite valuable

TROOPS SENT TO SAMAR.
Gen. Chaffee, However, Does Not Ex-
pect Much Fighting.

Gen. Chanee. However, Does Not Ex-
pect Much Fighting.
A dispatch from Manila last night says:
Gen. Chaffee does not expect to hear of any
extensive engagement in the Island of Sa.
mar He believes the operations there will
not result in an open fight. 1t is hard to
find armed Filipinos, but every man with
out occupation will be compelled to go into
a town.
1t is reported that all the rifles captured
by the Fiipinos at Balangiga are now in
the Island of Leyte, where many bolomen
are known to have gone from the Island OF
samar. In fact. Leyte is as disturbed as
Samar
The transport Sumner sailed for the ISL
and of Samar today with battalion Of the
10Th and 22d Infantry.
The object of the reinforcement of Amer
lean troops and marines now being pushed
forward is to increase all the garrisons to
thirty-eight men. Some Of them have until
recently numbered only eight men. The
reinforcements will also allow the detailing
of working force to operate in the field
hunting for insurgents.
Gen. Wheaton reports that band of
bolomen has entered Tarlac province, Island
of Luzon, through Bulangan province, and
that the men composing it are distributing
infiammatory bulletins, which are also post
ed on the church DOORS warning the people
to prepare to take the field in January.
by bolomen that various bands Of armed
natives would shortly concentrate in the
vicinity of Rosales. There Is a periodical
scare over this in Manila which is foment-
ed by the sensational papers. The editors
Of these journals demand that additional
troops be sent to Batangas at once, as
there are now only 200 men there under
COL McKibben, In addition to the metro
politan police. The native police, which
can hardly be counted on, are not taken
into account.
The garrisons in central Luzon report
that several bands Of rebels. numbering
twenty-five to fifty. are endeavoring to
concentrate at one point. This, 1t is be-
lieved, is the result of Gen. Malvar's ef-
forts at recruiting.
A harmonious agreement has been reach
ed between Gov. Gen. Taft and Gen. Chat
fee regarding habeas corpus proceedings
in the case of military prisoners. The law
has been amended so as to cover such
cases. ~,
The Philippine commission has prepared
libel laws. which were necessarily most
stringent. The newspapers propose tc
fight these laws through their lawyers. The
chief objection Is to the unusual powers
which are conferred on. the judges, owing
to the non-existence Of jury trials.
