Commissioner Hernann'S Report

The report Of Commissioner of the
General Land Office Hermann was
made public Monday. 1t shows that
the government has disposed OF
&, $50, 900 acres Of land during the
past year. 1t recommends the repeal
of the existing laws governing the
timber on reserved public lands. and
general law instead, which provides
ample protection for the forests, and
at the same time permits settlers,
miners and others to secure sufficient
timber for their legitimate needs. He
also recommends an increased
number of wardens and agents for
the protection of timber lands. MIR.
Hermann also wants bill passed
empowering the president to set
apart, as national parks, tracts of

distinction Point Iona, CAL, to be
educated and cared for at the farm
of the brotherhood under the direc-
ton of Miss Katherine Lang. They
are detained on the island. Com
missioner Williams said today that
the case of the children opens an i'm
portant and interesting question,
which will probably be used to estab-
lish a precedent for the guidance OF
the department in the matter OF ad-
mission of Cuban children to the
country for the purpose OF educa-
ton. The technical point on which
the children will be deported, if the
board decides to debar them, he says,
will be that they are liable to be-
come a public charge.
No one appeared at Ellis island
to produce any testimony before the
board on either side of the question,
and the board did not take up the mat
ter. Commissioner Williams ls conf
dent that an appeal will be taken firs'
to him and then to the treasury depart
ment in Washington in order t,
make test case and establish a pre-
cedent.

burn Holdenville Wednesday and Mar

there were some demonstrations moth

some time that the Snakes are in

towns all over the Creek Nation and it
is feared that serious trouble will be
the outcome.
Mounds and Beggs, new towns
along the line of the Frisco, were
threatened also, but they were we'll

The Snake Indians seem to be deter

Colorado Senator Speaks on the Phil.
ippine Question.

Washington, Feb. 21.-At the con
clusion of routine business in the SEN
ate consideration was resumed of the
Philippine tariff bill. Mr.. Patterson
(Colo.), member of the Philippine
committee of the senate, declared the
treason and sedition laws as enacted
and enforced as tyrannica1 He main
tanned that the decision of the SUI
preme court seemed to indicate that
when the question was presented un-
qualifiedly to that court it would be
held that the bill of rights would be
extended to the Filipinos and that
they were as a fact within the limits
of the Constitution of the United
States,
He maintained that when the ques-
tion should finally come before the
supreme court it would be held that
the rights Of free speech and a free
press in the Philippine islands would
be protected fully and beyond a
doubt He said it was a new and
strange sovereignty that enabled the
Philippines commission to enforce
such laws as had been put in effect in
the Philippines and he challenged the,
authority of the commission to enact
such laws. He recognized that all the
judicial powers Of the Constitution
was not extended to a territorial gov
ernment, but he held that, beyond
doubt in his mind, the Philippine COM
mission had no authority to define
treason Or to provide punishment
therefor. That, he held, was solely
within the power and authority of con

that the final ratifications of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty shall be exchanged
here as soon as the mechanical work

authority to conclude this arrange

Mr.. Brun, the Danish minister, also
saw Secretary Hay in relation to the
ratification Of the treaty for the ces-

improbable now that the mooted pleb-
escite. of the inhabitants of the isl.

wise, the taking of the vote will be a
very small matter, inasmuch as the
franchise is enjoyed in the Danish
West Indies by only a few hundred Of
the total population and their votes
could be recorded in a aay or two It
will not be necessary to wait upon
congress for the appropriation of S.
100000 as O. preliminary to the acqui-
sition Of the islands by the United
States. Under the treaty, as soon as
the ratiications are exchanged, the
United States flag will be hoisted and

priated, will be charged up against

New York, Feb. 21.-There was a
sensational furry in the stock market
during the morning, which proved how
disagreeable a., surprise President
Roosevelt had given the speculative
world by his Instructions to the at
torney general to begin proceedings to
test the legality of the formation of
the Northern Securities company. The
stocks of the transcontinental railways
bore the chief brunt of the process of
unloading stocks, as they are most i'm
mediately concerned in the project
represented by the formation of the
company. Great Northern preferred

exchange which is Immediately in

Union Pacific, st. Paul, Northwestern
and Southern Pacific always show close
sympathy with the affairs of the
Northern Securities company. and all
Of them dropped sharply, Union Pa
cific losing 31a, St. Paul 8 and South
ern Pacific 2E. The weakness was by
no means confined to this group. The
wide breaches in value among the
SouthWesterns and in Reading as well
as in high priced industrials like Su-
gar, Tennessee Coal and the local
fractions was a fair indication Of now
confident hope had teen cherished
that the supreme court next Monday
would dispose of the Northern Secur-

New York, Feb. 21.-Bankers of this
city identified with the formation of
The Northern Securities company were
greatly surprised to learn and at first
refused to believe that Attorney Cen
eral Knox is preparing a case against
the company.
They pointed out that a decision on
of the United States lis expected on
Monday next. They were unable to
understand why notice of another ac-
hon should be given pending this deci-
sion.
1t is stated to be the intention of
Loeb syndicates to fight the case out
to the end. All of the bankers who
were seen expressed themselves as
confident of the ultimate result.
A long legal battle is promised, but
tits understood that no matter what
the decision may be the dominating
idea which brought the Northern Sc
curities company into life will be
substantially maintained. A contin-
gency such as has arisen, authorities
said, was foreseen by the legal talent
when the last details were arranged
some months ago and provision is
made, for carrying out of the COM
munity of ownership idea.
Charles Steele, a member Of the
firm of ]. P. Morgan & Co., was in
conference with Mr.. Morgan at his
residence as to the effect of the action
of Attorney General Knox.
"This opinion came as a great sur
prise to all of-us," he said. mo such
action was expected and there has
