MILITARY POSTS

0f Oklahoma and Where They are
Located.
Two actige military posts and two
abandoned ones are located within the
territory.
Fort Supply, located in Woodward
county, was abandoned several years
ago, and the many fine buildings and
improvements are rapidly going to
ruin. The reservation Of 10000 acres
surrounding the post is, understand,
soon to be sold in small tracts. No
better disposition could be made of
the post than for congress to present
it to the territory for use as a public
institution, and earnestly renew my
recommendation along this line made
in my preceding reports.
Old Fort Cobb. on the Washita, was
abandoned many years ago, and but
mere mound of earth marks it's site.
Fort Reno and Fort Sill are both
used as stations for the regular army,
and are modern in construction and
equipment They are among the at
tractiye places of public interest in
the territory and are annual visited
by thousands oil people.

ROW RAISED OVER
LAWSHE'S REPORT
Cabinet Decides that Heads
OF Departments Need Not
Obey the Senate

Scripps-McRae Press Assn.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 7-Presi-
dent Mckinley and his cabinet have
decided to make a square issue with
congress as to the right of that body,
or either of it's branches. to demand
compliance with requests for iptorma-
tion which the president as the chief
executive to furnish.
The cabinet was unanimously Of the
opinion that no one branch of con-
gress, and probably not congress it,
self has authority to expect on com
pei answers from the heads OF depart
meEts regarding executive matters.
This applies, according to the cahi-
nets view OF the matter. not alone to
requests for documents or reports or
other information that may be deemed
private by the executive departments,
but to all matter within their iurisdic-
tion and control.
The discussion of the subject arose
over the resolution recently passed by
lie senate demanding a copy of the
report of Abraham l.. Lawshe, whose
findings on the Cuban frauds are ex-
pected to enable the government at
torneys prosecuting the men guilty Of
those frauds to insure conviction.
The trend OF the discussion in the
cabinet was to the effect that the ex.
ecutiye branch Of the government is
equal with the Legislative, and as such
does not receive and execute orders
from the Legislative branch unless so
inciined. Attorney General Griggs ad-
vanced this view and was cordially
supported by Secretary Hay, Postmas-
ter General Smith. Secretary Gage
and other members of the cabinet.
The president also supported the view
of Mr.. Griggs. Il was practically de-
ciecd also to discriminate hereafter
In determining what information shall
or shall not be furnished TO congress.

DYE IS SORRY AND ASKS
 FOR LIGHT SENTENCE
Sef-confessed Burglar Bound Over By Justice Benners On Two
 Charges.

A. J. Dye, the self-confessed burglar who was arrested in Nashville Tuesday for robbing the stores of May & Thomas and the Birmingham Arms Company, plead guilty yesterday in Justice Ben ner's court. He was bound over to the grand jury in two cases of burglary and grand larceny and placed in the county jail.
 When the cases were called Dye told the justice that no witnesses were need ed for he wished to plead guilty and se- cure a light sentence.
 In talking of the case he said:
 This Is my first and last offense. l hope to get sentence not more than two years for this work and I propose to serve it out faithfully. I have been taught a severe lesson and the detectives in Nashville besides the chief of police there have spoken a good word for me. The chief of police here and the detective who brought me back have promised some assistance. I am 20 years of age and came to Birmingham five weeks ago am carpenter and joiner by trade and am a union man."

SIX MEN MAY BE
 HANGED AT ONCE
HALF DOZEN, INCLUDING FRANK DUNCAN, AWAIT EXECUTION IN THE COUNTY JAIL-ALL BUT TWO HAVE APPEALED.

In the county jail there are six men waiting to be hung. They are Frank Duncan, Will Dorsey. Jim Winters, Floyd Brown, Taylor Charleston and Will Redd- ing, all of whom are negroes except Dun can. He has been sentenced to hang for the murder of Policeman Kirkley.
 The cases of Duncan, Bedding Brown and Charleston are before the Supreme Court and if an early decision is render ed affirming the finding of the lower court Sheriff Burgin may arrange to exc cute them all the same day. This will probably be the first quadruple hanging ever held in Alabama.
 Dorsey and Winters have not appealed their cases to the Supreme Court but express willingness to die for their crimes. Winters is the negro who shot his wife at Ensley and refused to employ lawyers or summon witnesses to defend him.
 Frank Duncan was sentenced to hang on December 6, but a stay of the execu- ton was granted until the appeal has been heard by the Supreme Court. Dun- can is hopeful of another trial but he receives no encouragement from the fate of Frank Miller, his partner, and, becomes very morose at times. He has quit writ ing poetry and seldom has anything to say except to take a gloomy view of his condition.

SHAME ON NANCY, SHE
 MADE OFFICERS BLUSH
Negro Woman Gave Policeman Sample of Her Mind and Will
 Pay $50 for It.

Nancy Hanks, otherwise known as Sa- vannah Gothard and negro woman
 who loves her booze" was tried in the Criminal Court yesterday and fined $50
 for offending the dignity of three police
 men by the use of ugly words. The off, cers of the law who suffered mental an-
 guish from the deluge of unprintable
 words, paragraphs and sentences were
 fatrolmen Burke, Jones and Ellidge.
 The little scrape, for which Savannah
 now pays so dearly, occurred in Twenty
 second street near Avenue B about six
 months ago just after Nancy had stepped off block at 2:04. The only thing she
 had against the policemen was the color
 of their clothes. but this was very dis tasteful. She turned the first voliey on
 Burke and Jones who were walking to-
 gether. In a moment Policeman Ellidge alighted from car and started to join his two comrades when Nancy turned a
 broadsde on the three The air was blue
 and the oaths zig-zagged their way
 around the corner knocking the fruit off
 an humble Greeks stand in every drec-
 tion. With faces reddened from shame the minions of the law approached Nancy and led her to a place where there is
 more profanity than polite repartee.
 Officer Burke. who is not large man, was one of the main witnesses for the | state in the trial and when he declared
 most positively that Nancy Hanks had dubbed him "a dried apple looking-some-
 thing the, jury had no trouble in reach ing verdict. Nancy will accordingly
 step off 2:O4 every morning at sunrise as | the chain gang is called to work.

MUST DIG UNDER
 THE METROPOLITAN
FOUNDATION OF WOODWARD BUILDING TO BE SOLID STONE. ADJOINING STRUCTURE WILL BE HELD UP BY JACK SCREWS.

The foundation of the new Woodward Twentieth street will rest on solid rock. and it may be necessary to dig down depth of anywhere from 40 to 100 feet to reach the desired substance. A difficult part of the task will be the excavations that must be made under the Metropoli- tan Hotel.
 The hotel building will be supported by jack screws and strong timbers while the earth is being removed from within radius of six or ten feet, owing to the number of feet down the workmen have to go before striking solid rock. The weight of the steel with which the inn mense structure will be held together will be such that the foundation must necessarily rest on solid stone. It is be- lieved that such a foundation will be reached within fifty feet of the surface.
 There are tricks in all trades and the contractor will know just how far he will have to dig for rock before pick Is stuck in the ground. The depth is determined by boring and this work will probably begin today The work of clearing out the earth for the foundation is being pushed rapidly. A large force of laborers with mules and wagons are kept busy all day. Within a day or two the foun- dation of the Metropolitan Hotel will be reached. Then the beginning of the re- moval of earth from under 1t will be made.
 The width of the foundation column of the side nearest the hotel will be from F to 20 feet, depending upon the distance necessary to go before a rock basis is reached. Half of the width will be under heath the hotel
 In speaking of the work yesterday. MT. Cameron, who is foreman of the laborers now on the ground said:
 We will begin boring tomorrow in or der to determine the depth 1t will be necessary for us to go before reaching solid stone. Our foundation will rest upon solid rock. It is expected that this depth Is not more than 50 feet. but it is barely possible we will be forced to go even to the depth of 100 feet.
 "Yes. we will remove dirt from under the foundation of the Metropolitan. The width of the pit we will dig under it will be from to or 10 feet. dependent upon the distance we have to go for the basis of our foundation.
 We do not expect any difficulty and will not interfere with the hotel or its guests. nor will the strength of the walls be impaired by our going under them"
