CHICKASAW- -CHOCTAW
TREATY In CONGRESS
Several Provisions Of the
Agreement Will Provoke
Much Opposition


Special 70 Daily Leader.
Washington. D. c., April S.
Preparations are being made by the
house and senate committee for the
early consideration of the Chickasaw
and choctaw and Greek supplemental
agreement II is already evident that
both of these treaties win provoke
much opposition. and the members of
the two committees are anxious to
reach a decision as to the final dispo-
sition Of the agreements.
Two provisions of the Choctaw and
Chickasaw supplemental treaty are al
ready being vigorously opposed by
leading members OF the house and
senate The first provision relates to
the reopening Of what are known as
the court citizenship cases. Congress
has always been slow to disturb a
judgment Of court II is proposed
in the treaty TO permit either the ma
tion, or any OF the applicants for citi-
zenship, to reopen any of the court
judgment cases upon a a,ere applica-
tion to the court by either side. The
presumption is that those parties
whom the court have placed on the
rolls are entitled to citizenship other
wise the Judgments would not have
been rendered. 1t would be an injus-
tice. as well as great hardship, to
these applicants to compel them to
again go into court and prove their
citizenship. This phase of the agree
ment is sure TO result in a protracted
controversy which viii probably end
in its being stricken out Of the agree
ment
Another sectio Of the agreement
which will be strongly opposed relates
to the sale and disposition of the coal
and mineral lands in the Choctaw ma
tion. The opponents Of the proposed
plan. as embodied in the agreement,
base their opposition upon two
grounds; first. that under the pro
posed system OF disposing of the lands
they will not bring anything like their
real value. and that the present com
panies holding leases would have prac-
tically a complete m2ncpoly on the
purchase Of the coal fields; and, sec
ondly. that under the law these min
eral lands were set aside for the pur-
pose OF producing revenue for the
maintenance OF q school SYSTEM that
while they belonged TO the Choctaw
and chickasaw tribes, yet. when those
tribal forms Of government become ex-
tinct and the Indians share in The
general public school system, this
revenue would then be used TO help
maintain the free public schools, pa
ticularly if the children Of the Indians
are to attend.
While many objections ar eraised 70
other features of the agreement. the
two provisions above referred to will
be the most strongly opposed
There IS little probability that the
Greek agreement will ever get cnt OF
the committees II is meeting with
much opposition among members OF
the house and senate, while the depart !
ment is opposed to its ratification an
less amended in many vital respects

THE NISIC or =. e. ENGEI.
Enpt, Babbllnss supported by n List Of
patronesses.

At Mendelssohn Hall yesterday afternoon
there was concert which would have been
amusing if in certain Of its aspects il had
not been depiorabe. The PURPOSE of the
performance was TO call to public notice
the music of s. Camille Engel "a young
Hungarian resident of this city. Mr.. Engel
advertised in the programme that he was
the teacher, vocal or Instrumental, of sew
eral women whose names are to he found
in the lists of those present al the dinners or
dances OF the self elected leaders Of soci-
ETY." string of names OF patronesses. some
Of them leaders and some of them followers,
in this same smart" set was printed on
the house bill. That they had done their
part was evident in the presence OF many
we'll groomed women.
The deplorable element OF the concert
was the publication OF this list II Is
great pity that, If these women have as
much influence upon the world at large
as they think they have they do not lend
it to helping forward worthy things in art.
The frequency with which they appear
as the supporters OF insanity, littleness
and even humbuggery, arouses something
more than n suspicion that genuine talent
and true art are above their notice.
The compositions heard yesterday were
ballade for piano, romanza Tor violin
and piano. "Valse Noble" for piano. four

title, "Lyrisches 1ntermezzo II would
