WIN Be Sold.

The Colorado and Northwestern
railway. line twenty six miles long,
running between Boulder and Ward.
will be sold at auction on Novem ber
81 by order of Judge Hallett of the
federal court. The order was enter
ed some weeks ago. but SINCE then
negotiations have been on foot to have
it set aside. W. O. Culbertson, the
majority stockholder. and Colonel S.
b. Dick. the minority holder, were
the projectors of the road. and a
difference of policy in its manage
ment led to "a split between them,
which will end in a dissolution of
the partnership.
Dick has long favored an extension,
while Culbertson is content to con-
tinue operations upon the present
footing and has opposed extension
a last attempt to adjust differences
was made last week. Had it resulted
in a compromise the decree of sale of
the road would have been nullified.
AS the order now stands Culbertson
will gain entire control of the COM
pany. 1t is claimed that he already
owns 80 per cent of the stock.
The acquaintance and association of
Culbertson and Dick had an early be-
ginning. As boys they were INSOFAR
able and when they came to enter
business the one followed the others
lead. Their faith in each other was
implicit, so that almost all enter
prises taken up by the one have been
entered into by the other. So far as
is known the quarrel which has for
its grounds the differing views as to
the future of the Colorado and North
western is the first serious one the
two men have had. And it has dis
rupted a friendly relationship that
has continued until the present un-
broken for over twenty years. Den

TRIAL OF JOHN dALLMAN
For the Killing of Luke Channel Held at
Observation-Disclosures Defense was
That Channel was Stabbed to Death
BY His Own Brother.

The preli ninary trial OF John j..
GaIlman, who killed Luke Channell
was held before Justices Russell and
Caldwell in this city. Tho teati-
mony indicated that Gallman, John
Afford, Luke Channell, and num-
Der OF others had drunk very freely
OF bad whisky and gone to a negro
dance in the GalIman neighborhood.
On their return from the frolic Gall
man and Judge Channel had some
words because Channel kept trip
ping Gallman. Luke Channell kept
the men from fighting until within
a short distance of the depot in the
village Of Gallman, when Gallman
left the others, borrowing a pistol
from a man nansd Afford overlook
the party, and fred six shots, kill
ing Luke Channel. 1t is claimed
Gallman was shooting at Judge
Channel, aud killed lis brother by
accident. The defense set up the
plea that the deceased did not die
from a wound inflicted by Gallman,
but was accidentally stabbed BY his
brother, Judge Chanuell, who was
making an effort to get to Gallman
when he was fired upon. The court
did not accept this view, but re-
manded the prisoner to Jail, to await
the &C ton of the grand jury at the
April term of the Circuit Court.
After the trial DR.. j. M. Catching
leld an autopsy on the body Oh
Channel for the purpose OF deter
mining if Channel died from a
pistol shot or from a knife stab, as
claimed by the defense. The dead
man's face was badly powder burn
ed, showing that the shooting was at
close range.

med piece Of the wood through his
brain. The horse was chloro-
formed, the stick taken out and

the brain matter also was torn out.
The wound was dressed and thu
horse got up and walked about,
dazed at first. going against every
thing in his path. He afterwards
grew quiet and loitered about the
yard. The second day he ate some

actually crushed through the BRAIN.

INDIANS NOT
TREATED BADLY
Interview With Man Familiar
With Conditions.
RUMORS ARE GROUNDLESS.
Something of the History of the Trans.
pcrtation of the Indians Told by V.
M. cIuis, T. P. A. OF Rock Island
Railroad.

Since tho beginning OF tho exodus
of Indians from this portion of the
country rumors have been rife as to
the alleged cruel treatment they had
received after going to the territory.
The immigration agents have also
come in for some very severe criti-
cisms.
With view of ascertaining some
facts in regard to the matter q rep
resentative of The Press called yes
erday upon Mr.. V. NJ. Cluis, travelling
passenger agsdt of tho Rock Island
system, who has been instrumental in
transporting the Indians to the west
and from him secured some facts
which heretofore have been practical
ly unknown to the citizens OF this Sec
tion of the country.
In the course of his remarks said:
81 have heard of the rumors that
he Indians were falring badly after
.eaching the territory, although Ihave
not been in that section of the country
Tor the past month or SO, I think the
indians are receiving all possible care
md attention, and so far as 1 know
there has not been one of them who
aas been badly treated in any in
stance. To show the absurdity of the
recent rumors, the law bearing upon
he allotment of land emphatically de-
,lares that an Indian must remain on
lis homestead tweniy-one years be-
lore he can sell or dispose OF it en-
.irely. They can, however, dispose OF
100 acres of their q lotment within the
period of five years in certa n quanti-
les each year. As they receive $40
c-es, this leaves them 100 acres on
which they must remain for twenty
me years. The proposition that the
Indians go on is thi-: the capitalist
who carries them, first agree to as
sumo care of the Indians until they
come into possession of their lands.
They also agree to pay railroad fare
md any Obligations which the Indians
may owe in this state.
60 consideration OF this, the agents
receive l60 acres of the land, in the
manner as before stated. I remem-
Der one Instance in particular at the
town of Kiowa. The land sections
have been laid off in lots similar to q
city. The agents will take the rear
lots, leaving the front to the Indians
SIN speaking OF the amount OF land
which is to be included in the allot-
ment Mr.. Cluis said
Each man, woman and child in
the two nations will be given 800 acres
Of average allotable lands in the two
nations. In addition to the 10000,
300 acres to be given the Indians, the
United States will sell more than
1000. 900 acres OF farming and grazing
land in the Choctaw nation. When an
Indian receives patent to his land he
will be allowed to sell of the art not
reserved as HOMESTEAD, one-fourth in
one yer, one fourth in three yeas,
and the remainder in Ave years. For
thirty-five years the Indians have had
,ontro of the lands and they would
not permit the whites to own one foot
Of it, but now the lands are to be
divided among the Indians and the
surplus sold. The proceeds OF which
will be prorated among the Indians
OF full blood"
