issuing his proclamation in time to
reserve the land before it avs set
tied upon by homesteaders.
It is estimated at the department
that the land withdrawn by.the pres
ident's proclamation will aggregate
about $4,000 acres, and it is the inten-
tion of the secretary later on to rec
ommend to congress that the families
of the Apache prisoners be taken care
of by allotments. The necessity for
a military post at Fort sill is rapid
ly disappearing and within a few
years the entire reservation can be
disposed of for agricultural purposes.
Old Geronimo and his band are now
docile as any Indians on the reserva-
ton. and the necessity for keeping
them under surveillance has already
passed. Their liberation will shortly
be secured and they will be provided
with land with which TO make a living
for themselves and their families.

ARE POINTS OF LAW.
Two Cases Of Interest Are Being
Tried at Leavenworth.

Ardmore, I. T., Oct. 12--Two cases
of very great interest to the people Of
the Indian territory, and especially
70 the residents Of the southern dis
trict, in the vicinity of Paul's Valley,
will come up for trial on the 11th inst.
at Leavenworth, Kas., says the Ard
morite.
All remember the case of e. H.
Shriyener. who was tried before Judge
Thomas for introducing and selling
liquor, who entered a plea of guilty
and was sentenced to four years inn
prisonment in the penitentiary and
fined 81, 500 and committed until the
fine and costs were paid.
Before Judge Hook, an application
for a writ of habeas corpus was asked
and granted against the warden of the
penitentiary at Fort Leayenworth to
be heard upon the above date.
The grounds upon which schriven-
ers attorneys claims he is entitled
to the writ are, that all prisoners
tried after the end of the regular
three weeks term of court at this
place were void, because the law is
that the judge shall designate the
time at which the court shall con
vene and the term it shall continue at
this place.
The order of het court of appeals
at South McAlister was that Judge
Thomas should hold term of court
as designated by Judge Townsend, so
the applicant elaine. Furthermore,
htat the sentence was an excessive
one, inasmuch that it provided that
the prisoner should remain incarce-
rated until the fines and costs are
paid, while the law makes no such
provision as any one under the law
after serving thirty days can make
an affidavit that he is unable and too
poor to pay the fine and they viii
then be released.
The same grounds as asked for, for
Frank Hunt, convicted of robbery,
and given fifteen years at hard la
Dor. He was tried within the three
weeks, but was not sentenced for
several days after the three weeks
had expired

FORT SILL SETTLERS
FEAR PROCLAMATION
Reservation Of Lands Needlessly
Alarms AIlotees.
nv Associated Press.1

Washington, D. c.. Oct. 1.-THE re
cent proclamation of the president,
reserving additional lands adjoining
the Fort Sill military reservation in
Comanche county, Oklahoma. has
caused much uneasiness to settlers
near the reservation and allotees. for
fear their lands are embraced within
the reservation have withdrawn from
public settlement by the terms of the
proclamation. The rights of the set
tiers and the allotees have been thor
oughly protected, however, and there
is no cause for apprehension on their
part.
When the law was passed providing
for the opening of the new country
no provision was made for the rela-
tivas and families of the Apache pris-
oners Of war, who were recently
brought from Arizona, where they had
been for many years under surveil-
lance, back to the Fort Sill reserva-
tion. The failure to provide for these
innocent victims who had been made
to suffer for the outrages Of old Ge-
ronimo and his blod thirsty gang was
realized when it was too late To dc
