n condition this morning is even
less satisfactory than yesterday

uneasiness and difficulty in breathing

parent Imperative necessity of an Oper-
alton and on the other with the danger
THAT such an operation might prove
fatal This dilemma was canvassed- by
Dr. Lapponi and DR.. Mazzoni through
out the day. At their earlier confer
ence there was some prospect that the
operation might not occur, but the
doctors left the sick room without ar
irving at a definite determination as
To when il would take place. They
expressed the belief. however. that a
delay until today would serve d useful
purpose in permitting a larger eXtrac-

WICHITA MEN WIN
Interior Department Decides
Their Rights are Prior
TO ANY OTHER SURVEY
Made for a Railroad Line
Through Indian Nations

Yesterday the decision Of the Interior
Department was received here which
stated that the rights of the Wichita and
Southern railway company through the
Usage, Creek and Choctaw Indian nations
were prior to any other surveys of the
field and would be respected until the first
OF March of next year.
Several years ago the right was secured
from the department to survey line
through the three nations to build a rail
road from Wichita to South McAlester-
The survey was made but for num-
Der of years nothing was done 10 build
The line.
During the winter a party of Winfield
surveyors made a survey from Winfield
to the state line and thence over the same
lines run by the Wichita and South Nc
Alester parties and the decision was ask
d for from the department as to which
company would have the prior right The
deis@snent has decided that the Wichita
company still has the right TO use that
inc.
Nine months yet remain for the Wich-
sta and Southern company to begin work
on their line in the territory. If they
do not do some grading before that time
the rights viii be forfeited. Arrange
ments are now being made to start the
building of the road and it is said that
dit viii be flying before the first Of Sep
TENDER
The road as originally surveyed ran
east of Winfield, but the people of that
city want the line and made a survey on
ing to join with Wichita, however and
help all they possibly can if the road
viii be built through their town and a
committee of business men from Winfield
and Wichita will go to St Louis next
week to confer with capitalists regarding
the road.
A South McAlester paper has the fol-
lowing account of the matter: Several
years ago J. J. McAlester, NJ. N. Lind
ley and w II. Arnold of this city, Sc
cured a right from the Interior Depart
ment to survey a line of railway Though
the territory from Wichita to South Mo
Alester. The project was purely a spec
ulative one. Associated with two Wichita
gentlemen they ordered survey made
through the Usage, Greek and Choctaw
nations, terminating at South McAlester.
Then the plan slumbered. Recently a
new company has sought to claim the
survey and the dispute was brought to
the Interior Department for adjustment.
a decision just rendered gives the South
McAlester and Wichita men the prior.
right and a movement is we'll under foot
10 build the road. Before the surveys
are disposed of South NcAlester's inter-
ests viii be looked after by the insertion
of a clause in the contract whereby this
city gains the principal shops and term
finals Of the system. The Missouri Pacific
is thought to be after the survey Wich-
ita is now raising a bonus which will
start the ball to rolling.
