regard to the progress Of the in

said:
1.-The Department Of Justice has
already commenced it's investiga-
tlon and two men were discharged
as result OF it only a few Gays
ago. The Interior department
has selected Mr.. Bonaparte TO
make its investigation and be is

pointed to make an investigation
and il will begin work immediat-

"As understand IT," continued
Sir. Curlis, "the members Of the

DELAwARES LOSE
Court DissoIves Injunc-
ton In Delaware
Case.

Justice Anderson of the Su.
preme court Of the district oi
Columbia yesterday handed down
an opinion in the injunction pro-
ceedings brought by the Della
wares against the Dawes commits
sion to prevent Cherokee citizens
from filing on lands aggregated
for Delawares pending the decis-
ion Of the supreme court Of the
United States.
Soon after the decision was rem
dered Attorney Walter S. Logan
filed petition in the court OF
claims on behalf Of the Delawares
against the Uuited States asking
that damages be awarded in the
sum Of 81, 100000 because Of the
expenses to which the Indians
have been subjected because Of
the necessity Of defending title 70
their lands.
In this petition they make some
sensational statements.
One Of these accusations Is to
tho effect that members Of the
Dawes commission are interested
il oil leases and companies hold.
ing leases snade upon their lands
by Cherokees claiming title. Men
tioning the members Of the com
mission by name, the petition all
leges that Notwithstanding the
lands have been properly segre-
gated, the dawes commission,
disregarding their official duties
as agents Of the United States to-
ward your petitioners, have con
spired and confederated. and are
conspiring and confederating to-
gether with the said companies, to
cheat and deiraud your petitions
ers so as to gain possession Of their
lands for themselves, OF for their
said companies, under pretense of
allotiing said lands, in their Of
fetal capacity as said Dawes COM
mission, to divers persons who
are willing to enter into contracts
of lease and sale with representa-
tives Of said trust and land com.
panies, in which the members Of
said Dawes commission are inter
ested, and said Dawes commission
and the members thereof have
thus wrongfully followed, and
after the making Of said segrega.
tion as hereinbefore referred to,
continue to allow filings to be
made upon parts Of the lands of
your petitioners, so segregated as
aforesaid, and over which said
commission has ceased legally to
have any further Jurisdiction or
control but is wrongtully assum
ing the same and said commission
and members thereof have thus
wrongiully, after said segregation
was made, allowed more than 100
persons not Delawares, to make
selections for homes upon parts
of the said Delaware lands 50 seq
regated, as aforesaid. and have al
lotments thereon land have sought
by recommendations contained in
their report Of april 20, 1903, TO

WILL ASK FOR JURY
Sheriff Solomon Will Exercise This
Right-Has Engaged Counsel.

Sheriff Solomon Will Exercise This
Right-Has Engaged Counsel.
Speaking OF the matter yesterday, sher-
III Simon Solomon. OF Henrico county.
who is under the fire Of the Virginia
Passenger and Power Company. which is
asking for his removal from office. said
he would certainly exercise his right to
demand trial by jury. The law dealing
with removals gives this right to all
officers not appointed by the court.
The case is set for next Tuesday, and
will come up first before Judge Wickham
on the application for a rule Of the court
summonlng the sheriff to show cause
why he should not be removed. The
charge is malfeasance and misfeasance
and gross neglect OF duty. based chiefly
upon the failure OF the sheriff to call
out tho military for Henrico before he
did The only thing Mr.. Solomon says
about the charge Is that It Is altogether
unfounded. that he performed his duty
and acted for the best interests OF the
county, and that he expects to show this
to the court and receive full vindication
from that body.
Mr.. Solomon announced yesterday that
he has prepared himself to resist the
movement against him to the utmost.
He has retained as his counsel Messrs.
Hi Carter and Fl. NJ. Smith, Jr.
