The towns of Buff. Rakowa, Opsirini,

INDIAN FRAUDS GREATER
THAN PUBLIC REALIZE
Denial of Charges Against Secre-
tary Hitchcock.

Although there were no new develop
ments yesterday in the land or Indian
scandals now being investigated by the
Secretary OF the Interior, Scott Smith,
private secretary to Secretary Hitch
cock, said yesterday that the number of
alleged frauds in obtaining contracts for
public improvements was much larger
than the public realized, and that a
surprising state of affairs was revealed
when the probing into contracts was
begun.
Next week there will be several trials
at Hobart, o. T., OF persons alleged TO
have been engaged in the fraudulent
transactions. These trials will be of i'm
poTtance in demonstrating to the people
OF the Territory that the Government is
in earnest in its intention to prosecute
all who have taken unfair advantage of
the unsettled conditions in the new
cou.try.
Gov W. A. Richards. Commissioner
OF the General Land Office. said:
The charge that Secretary Hitchcock
deposited IL ST. Louis banks and trust
companies controlled by his friends. or
In which he had an interest, the money
obtained from the sale of town lots in
Hobart. Anadarko, and Lawton is abso-
lutely untrue. / conducted the sale of

MARSHAL UNDECIDED,

IT is exactly a week since Auliek
Palmer, United States Marshal for the
District. was informed through an opin-
ion of the Attorney General on the sub
Ject. that 1t is his duty 10 eject certain
persons from land on Rock Greek. be

by the Government. In April last. on

Superintendent OF Public Grounds and
Buildings. again called the attention OF
Marshal Palmer 10 the matter. and sub
mited 10 him the opinion of the Attor-
ney General in reference to the Mar

effect, that the Marshal has no discre-
tion in the matter; ii is his imperative
duty TO cause the trespassers to be
elected and restore possession OF the
land to the officer of the Government
authorized to hold it,
Notwithstanding this peremptory or
der no step has been taken by the Mar
shall TO oust the "squatters' from the
property which they have long recog
nized as their own.
Some persons contend that as ar officer
of the Government there is nothing for
the Marshal 10 do but obey orders. Gust

ted States stand the responsibility
others argue that his only authority
to proceed in the matter must be an or.

Il should develop that the land in ques-
tion is really the property OF the per-
sens who were elected from it. thea
it Is coatended that he would be per-
sonally liable fer damages.

The English view of Lord Salisbury,
reflected In the comment occasioned by
his long illness, has been epitomized for
the New York Evening Post as fol-
lows:
In the death of Lord Salisbury passes
the greatest contemporary Englishman.
Ten years ago half the nation only
would have asserted so much; today
there is no dissentient voice.
To the last day of his premiership,
Lord Salisbury remained exclusive and
aristocratic in life and thought; yet the
whole nation learned to trust his guild
ance, and his overwhelming sense OF
never left him; having once thrown of
the reins of office. he made none OF
those sudden excursions into politics,
which so often brought dismay to Mr..
Gladstone's ex-colleagues, but his last
public speech as prime minister might
have been delivered yesterday. so insis-
tent is its applicability to the presen.
position of the empire.
Il see,'' he said in effect, "but one
threatening danger before the empire
the danger of an impetuous desire to
outpace public feeling In the direction of
imperial unity. Imperial unity, IL to
last, must be of gradual growth. step
by step, as need arises"
