WRIT is REFUSED.
Nelson Failed to Appear and His Bond
Mas Forfeited

Cofeyville, Kan, Aug. 1S.vA writ Of
habeus corpus for his release from the
Montgomery county jail pending the
hearing OF an appeal in murder case
in which he is defendant. was yesterday
refused John Nelson by the supreme
court. Nelson is a cattleman living in
the Indian Territory, a short distance
south of Coffeyville. Two years ago Mel
son and lbert Morris, another Tanchman
met in Coffeyville. They became en-
gagged in n quarrel and Nelson shot and
killed Morris. At the first trial Nelson
was convicted of manslaughter in the
second degree. He appealed to the su-
preme court and secured a reversal Of
the case. He was again convicted of the
same offense at the second trial. He has
once more appealed and desires TO be re-
leased pending the hearing. When Nell
son was out or bond previous to his sec
ond trial he went to the Indian Territory
and could not be found when the case
came up. Several weeks after the time
set for the hearing of the case Nelson
showed up. His bond in the meantime
had been forfeited and he was promptly
committed TO jail. Nelson claims he
could not get back on time because Of
the foods in the verdigris river The
fact. however, that he failed to appear
at the appointed time and his bond was
forfeited doubtless had much to do with
the supreme courts refusal to grant the
writ of habeas corpus

TO LEASES
Board Meets and Makes an
important Ruling.
TO ADMINISTER AN OATH

Acknowledged by a Jurat.
TO ADMINISTER AN OATH

Guthrie. o. T, Aug. 1s.-At a meeting
of the territorial board for leasing school
lands. held today in the office of Gov
ernor T. B. Ferguson, an important order
was promulgated which states that here
after all leases on school land shall be
executed and acknoIedged before the sec
rotary of the board for leasing school
lands, notary public or other officer en-
powered to administer the oath and take
acknowledgment of instruments affecting
real estate. 1t was also ordered that al
transfer of leases shall be acknowledged
in the same manner. Heretofore it has
been unnecessary to acknowledge these
instruments, providing TWO witness
were present when the leases were sisncd.
The board discussed the matter OF sub
leasing school land and it is probable
that some definite action vii be taken in
regard to such leases. There is rule
which expressly states that no leases shall
be sub-let. but there are cases being
brought to the attention of the depart
IIeGltI III WHICH LD.S lNtt IL A4bAN 80 ''-7NiAN
than the United States law on the mat
ter However, it is probable that the
board will order an investigation when
ever an application is made to sub-lease,
and a fee Of 81 per lease. to pay for the
investigation, will be charged. If it should
he ascertained that the sub-letting Of the
land is for good cause and straight, il
will be allowed.
Il is also probable that srhe board will
hold in the near future that no leases on
Oklahoma senocI lands shall be held by
persons rot residents of the territory. In
seine cases, persons residing in states ad-
joining Oklahoma nave secured leases on
school land for the purpose of speculation.
II is the intention of the board to give
residents of Oklahoma~every possible ad-
vantage in securing these lands.
The form to be used in the acknowl-
edement of leases is as follows:
Territory OF Oklahoma, 49,. County, SIS.
Before me. ....... in and for said county
and territory. on this ...... day of ........,
190.., personally appeared ...... and ......
to me known to be the identical person.
who executed the within and foregoing
instrument, and acknowledged to me that
49,. executed the same as ...... free and
voluntary act and deed for the uses and
purposes therein set forth.

TO STAMP OUT CHAMBERS.
Kansas and Missouri Boards Will
Meet to Discuss IL.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 1S.-A joint meeting
of the Kansas and Missouri state live
stock sanitary boards will probably be
held in q short time for the purpose of
considering steps for the stamping out
of glanders, which is prevalent. it is
claimed, among the horses of Kansas
City. Mo, and Kansas City, Kan. Gov
ernor Bailey yesterday received com
munication from the secretary of the
Missouri board requesting that arrange
ments be made for a joint meeting. It
was stated in the letter that the situa
tion was so serious that buyers were
fearful regarding purchasing horses in
Kansas City and the market as a result
was impaired. Reports of cases of CLAN
ders in both Kansas City. Mo. and KAN
sas City, Kan. have been frequently re-
ceived, but it has been thought that the
cases were sporadic in character. If the
disease is epidemic. as asserted. radical
means will be taken to abate it, All
horses afflicted with the ailment will be
destroyed. as provided by law, and all
animals which it is thought have been
exposed Will be quarantined. The com
munication from the Missouri board has
been referred by Governor Bailey to NJ.
board, with the request that an immedi-
ate investigation of the conditions COM
planned of be made.
