DECISION
Case of Lee VS.. ThreadgilI
Is Closed
JUDGEMENT SUM OF $3.50
Suit Over Bad Construction of
Building
JUDGEMENT SUM OF $3.50

. Oklahoma City, o. T., May 1.-THE
jury III the case of L. +. Lee VS.. John
Threadgin yesterday finally returned a
verdict, after having been out almost
forty-eight hours. The verdict was a
victory for the plaintiff, and he was given
a judgment for $3.50 and costs, which was
about half the amount he sued for. Mr..
Lee had the contract for erecting the
building at the corner of Robinson and
Second streets that was not long ago
condemned as unsafe, and had to be prac-
tically rebuilt, says the Cklahoman.
Mr. Threadgill claimed the building had
not been constructed in accordance with
specifications, and therefore refused TO
pay for it. Mr.. Lee claimed that it was
built in a workmanlike manner and that
it would have stood all right but for the
fact that the firm to whom the building
was rented had a heavy coffee roaster
on the second floor which damaged the
walls and caused it to lean. The jury
took the plaintiffs explanation as the
correct one. Mr.. Lees attorneys were
W. +. Wilson and c. b. AInes and Mr..
ThreadgilI was represented by Selwyn
Douglas and r.. G.. Hays.

MORE INVESTIGATION.
DR.. BeembIossom Will Be Asked to Ac'
count for Trifle of $270.

Guthrie, Q. T., May 1.-THE spirit of in
vestigation which seems to be invading
the various departments of the territorial
government has reached the Office of the
secretary of the live stock sanitary ocm-
mission and now DR.. u. Z. Beemblossorn,
former secretary, Is 10 be asked to ac-
count for 500 which IS alleged to be due
the Office and for which there are said to
be no accounts. DR.. Beemblossom be-
lieves that he has settled with the sani-
tary commission and that nothing is due
the office during the time he was secre-
tary. The books and papers in the office
have been carefully checked up and it IS
probable that Dr. Beemblossom will sue
cessfully explain every matter now under
question
1t viii be remembered that the last ter
ritorial council refused to confirm the
nomination of DR.. Beemblossom and for
few days the Office was vacant. Thos.
Morris, a member of the commission, was
asked by Governor Ferguson to take
charge of the affairs and a thorough
checking up was made by Mr. Morris and
Assistant Attorney General Woods.
The alleged discrepancy in the Office is
thought to he a matter of negligence
and that soon as the mater is explained
to DR.. Beemblossom that he will readily
arrange the affair to the satisfaction of
the board.

OKLAHOMA
SHOULD BE
ADMIT TED
Secretary Hitchcock Con-
vinced Beyond Question
Is HIS FIRST VISIT
Oklahoma Should Secure
Statehood Alone
is HIS FIRST VISIT

Guthrie, o. T., May M-''As result
Of his trip over Oklahoma. Secretary
Hitchcock is. convinced beyond question
that the territory is entitled 10 and
should have statehood as soon as possible.
He is of the belief that Oklahoma should
be admitted alone, Immediately, regardless
OF the Indian territory, as he considers
it impossible for that territory to secure
statehood until after 1896.
The above statement was made 10 the
representative of the Eagle today by w.
Scott Smith, private secretary to secie-
tary Z. a. Hitchcock of the interior de-
partment at Washington.
Oklahoma has been q revelation to Mr.
Hitchcock continued Mir. Smith. This
is his first visit 10 the territory, and he
had no idea OF the progress made in a
lew years. ell has been more than fav-
orably impressed and has repeatedly ex-
pressed the idea that oklahoma will Sc
cure an enabling act at the next session
OF congress
Does he believe that other territories
viii be admitted with Oklahoma and that
they viii secure enabling acts through an
omnibus bin?" was asked
He believes that Oklahoma will secure
statehood regardless OF the other territ0-
ries, although statehood may be given TO
all Of them. As far as an omnibus bin
is concerned, it is hard to state just
what the conditions will be in regard to
this matter. one thing is certain, Mr..
Hitchcock is absolutely convinced that
Oklahoma is entitled 10 statehood. He
has expressed this idea in several speeches
made in other parts OF the territory. Mr..
Hitchcock has always been inclined 10
believe that Oklahoma should have state
hood alone. hut owing to the fact that
he never visited this territory, he did not
know the exact conditions here. He has
been familiar with conditions in both the
Indian territory and oklahoma and until
the tribal relations cease to exist and GER
tain lease matters are disposed of, in his
estimation Indian territory cannot be
ready for statehood.
This trip through the territory has
been one Of business in many respects.
The secretary has enjoyed meeting the
people of various sections and he has re-
ceiyed an ovation wherever he has
stopped. This has pleased him and he
has taken a keen interest in Oklahoma
affairs 1t was his intention to avoid
receptions and speechmaking as far as
possible. but he has enjoyed every event
tn his honor"
