The story comes from Haines that the Chilkat Indians at klucSwan, Haines and surrounding country, are planning a monster meeting Co protest against the possibility ot any of their territory on Chilkat inlet being trans ferred Co "King George" These Chil- kat Indians are intensely loyal Co the United States, and desire Co retain their nationality. The story even goes so far as to say that the younger members of the tribe will propose, when the big pow WOW comes of, that the United States authorities be petitioned togrant them permission Co drive the "kiug George men out of the Porcupine country.
 The Chilkats have always resented the intrusion of the Canadian authori- into the Porcupiae country under the terms of the modu, vivendi, which agreement, naturally they did not understand and they can- not comprehend how it is that the Americans quietly submit Co having them there. They have at last been made Co understand that the "kiug George" men not only claim the terri tory upon which theircamp iS situated, but they claim Kluckwan. Chilkat and an the north end ot the canal That is more than they want Co stand and they believe that if the Americans would consent. they could easily drive the in- truders out.
 some ot the more conservative ot the Indians, who have heard oi the efficacy of resolutions, want Che meeting, when it takes place, to simply adopt a set oi resolutions setting forth their desires in the boundary matter. These they propose Co send Co the president at Washington.

BANDITS SWEETHEART
IN A DIME MUSEUM,
She Is PrOnting from the NOtOriety
Her Desperate Gained.

Chicago, Dec. detective Joseph
Driscoll, who was shot in the fight In
Indiana with the three car barn BAN
dts, died at the Mercy Hospital to-
day.
The death OF Detective Driscoll will
be charged to Peter Neidernder. In a
confession to the police, Neidermier adj
mitted that he shot Driscoll as the lat
ter sprang upon the railroad tracks
near the dug-out.
Gustave Marx. one of the car barn
robbers, will be placed on trial in the
Criminal Court this week. The others
will probably go over until the next
term of court.
The next term begins Monday, so that
the delay will be slight Each murder
Marx probably will be used as a wit
ness against the other defendants.
An attorney who has been retained
to defend Roeski stated definitely to-
day that Roeski's plea would be in
sanity. This insanity plea will be met
by the state. According to the police,
each defendant was examined by ex-
perts several days ago and pronounced
sane.
The sweetheart of one Of the bandits
has been on exhibition in a dime mu-
scum for several days. day Mayor
Harrison wrote to the proprietor and
told him that, in the interest of decent
citizenship, the exhibition should cease,

tive Driscoll added ito the offense.

REVISION FOR DREYFUS.
Belief Is That 1t VIII BE Accorded
Him


Paris Dec. 1.-France is looking for
ward with the gravest interest to the
meeting tomorrow of the commission
which will advise Minister of Justice
Vale on the question whether he shall
or shall not grant the Dreyfus appeal
for the revision of the sentence of the
court-martial at Rernes, though a re-
vision is foreshadowed by the consid-
GRAFTON given to Dreyfus' petition. Yet
the temperance of the affair bids fair
to arouse some of the excitement which
prevailed while the former captain of
artillery was undergoing trial and
while he was imprisoned on DEVILS
Island.
The government believes the COM
mission will advise a revision and is
prepared TO submit the case to the
Court of Cessation, which can recon-
mend 1t to the Council of War, but
which, it is believed, will itself render
a decision. This couse NJ. Clemenceau
and others regard as contrary to the
law.
A semi-ministerial publication gives
a statement showing the reasons
which induced Gen. Andre to favor a
revision as the result of his investiga-
ton, extending over five months, dur
ing which time number of persons
were examined. It was found that
several witnesses testified falsely be-
fore the court which tried Dreyfus.
The statement ends as follows:
Finally, an exceptionally important
fact developed. 1t Is that there is no
real proof, material or moral, existing
against the former captain. and all the
presumptions of guilt against Maj. Es-
terhazy were found, on the other
hand, to be justified"

WAR ON WEEVIL
is TO BE wAGED BY STUDIED
CAMPAIGN IN LOUISIANA.
LEGISLATURE TO BE CALLED
IN EXTRA SESSION TO PASS ANTI
WEEVIL LAWS.

Every Effort to BE Made to Keep
the Cotton Pest Out of Louisiana.
Protection Promised for Birds
That Are Enemies of the WeeviI.
May BE Made n Crime to Take "a
boil WeeviI Into the State-Other
Plans Formulated.
New Orleans, Dec. IA special ses-
sion of the Louisiana Legislature will
be held during the month of December
to pass legislation which, it is hoped,
will keep the boil weevil out of Louis
lana.
Gov. Heard made the announcement
of his intention to the boil weevil con-
vention to-day. He said he was fully
alive to the dangers of the threatened
invasion of the weevil and that he had
been assured that the state would have
the hearty cooperation of the Agricul-
tural Department at Washington in the
effort to keep the pest out of the state.
The boil weevil convention listened
to-day to addresses by a number of
planters, merchants and oil men and
also heard Vice President Miller of
the Audubon Association on the rela-
convention decided to ask for the en-
forcement of laws for the preservation
of the birds of the state, as an aid in
the destruction of the weevil.
The convention determined on a per-
manent organization to be known as
the Louisiana Boil Weevil Association,
IL Co1,t 1,,v- =. ave
vice presidents, and a secretary The
headquarters of the association will be
the Agricultural Department at Ba-
ton Rouge.
Following an address by o. S. Sulli-
van of Alexandria, on the oil mill in
terest in repelling the weevil, it was
announced that the Louisiana mills
had already agreed not to import cot
ton seed from Texas.
The report of the Legislative Com
mittee, which was unanimously adopt
ed provides that it shall be made a
crime punishable by heavy fine and
Imprisonment for any one, except
recognized state or federal entomolo-
gist, to bring into the state or have in
his possession a living boil weevil; that
an act shall be passed prohibiting the
shipment into the state of any cotton
seed or other farm product from points
where the weevil exists, without an
official certificates that 1t has been
fumigated; recommends the passage
of an act creating a crop pest commit
tee with plenary power to make rules
and regulations having the force of
law to control or eradicate any fruit
or crop pest; and recommending the
Legislature to make an appropriation
of $25, 900 to be used by the committee
to prevent the spread of and to eradi-
cate the WeeVil.

PRODUCE MUST BE
IN PROPER PACKAGES.
This Matter Considered Mt n Jack
sOnviIIe Meeting.

bOnNIIle Meettn&s
Jacksonville. Fla. Dec. There
was a meeting here to-day of the
freight agents of all railroads operat-
ing in this state, representatives of
shipping organizations and commission
merchants from the North and East,
for the purpose of deciding upon uni
form packages for handling produce
both fruit and vegetables. shipped
from this state and Georgia.
1t was claimed by the railroads that
the truckers and fruit growers have
been shipping in inferior packages, and
that this has been the cause OF the
produce arriving in bad order. The
producers represented at the meeting
were practically of the same opinion.
The matter was referred to a commit
tee to adopt packages and submit
same. When the schedule has been
agreed upon the railroads will issue a
circular letter refusing to accept fruits
and vegetables for shipment unless the
conditions have been complied with.

TRIAL FOR HERESY.
Charges Are Made Against Rev. DIR.
Bovine of Boston.

Boston, Dec. 1.-Papers have been
served upon Prof. Borden P. Bovine
of Boston University, calling him to
trial before the Ecclesiastical Court of
the Methodist Episcopal Church to an
swer to the general charge of heresy.
Rev. George A. Cook, pastor of Trim
itv Methodist Church. West Medford,
and A member of the New England
Conference, is the formal accuser of
Prof. Bovine. and the specifications,
five in number, are based upon the gen.
eral allegation that the professor has
disseminated doctrines which are con-
trary to the articles of religion, or es-
tablished standards of doctrines in the
Methodist Episcopal Church"
Prof, Bovine is widely known as
writer on philosophy, and his recent
statements concerning the Bible and
religious subjects have attracted much
attention. The charges against Prof.
Bovine relate to his views on the Deity,
inspiraticn and authority of the Scrip
lures, the atonement and Eschatology,
all of which are declared contrary to
the established doctrines of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church.

FENCED PUBLIC LANDS.
Nebraska CattIemen Have to Answer
for This.

Omaha, Neb., Dec. 1.-The alleged
illegal fencing of several million acres
Of government land by extensive cat
tie owners and ranchmen of Western
Nebraska occupied the attention of the
federal grand jury to-day. Several
prominent men, among them state
and United States officials, are said
TO be among those whose cases are
under investigation.
Although not officially given out, it
is stated that one extensive cattle
owner, and a leader in the movement
to keep fences standing, has already
been indicted. The court, however, re-
fuses to make the indictment public
until arrests have been made.
For several months the government
has been collecting evidence against IL
legal fencers. 1t is estimated that the
lands said to be illegally fenced in
Western Nebraska approximate 7,000,-
900 of acres, occupied by between 700
and 800 ranchmen. Many OF these
men have as high as $4,000 acres and
In a few instances as much as 100000
acres. Several have obeyed the in
junction to remove their fences, but
these amount to less than one-tenth
of the entire number.
