INDIANS MAKE
GRAVE CHARGES
Accuse Members Of the
Dawes Commission
Of Fraud.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S.-Justice An
derson Of the Supreme Court Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia rendered an opinion to-
day in the injunction proceeding Of the
Delaware Indians against Secretary
Hitchcock and the Dawes Indian Com
mission. dissOlving the temporary injunc-
ton heretofore granted. The case in
volved the right Of the Secretary to pass
on the Isl 600 acres Of land In the CherO-
kee nation segregated for the use of the
Delawares.
The Indians claimed that the Secretary
was without authority to approve or dis
approve of the segregation. as it had been
approved by the Indians interested. and
asked that he be enjOined against taking
such action pending the adjudication Of
the same question by the Court Of Claims.
Soon after the case was fled the court
granted temporary injunction, but Judge
Anderson to-day dissolved IL.
Soon after the decision was rendered
Attorney Walter s. Logan filed petit
ton in the Court Of Claims on bahaf Of
the Del&Wares against the United States
asking that damages be awarded in the
sum of 81 900. 600 because of expenses 10
which the Indians have been subjected
because Of the necessity Of defending title
TO their lands.
In this petition the Indians make some
sensational statements. One Of these ac-
cusations is to the effect that members OF
the Dawes Commission are interested in
oil leases and companies holding leases
made upon their lands by Cherokees
claiming title. Mentioning the members OF
the committee, the complaint alleges that
Notwithstanding that the lands have
been properly segregated the Dawes Com
mission. disTegarding their official duties
as agents Of the United States toward
your petitioners, have cOnspired. confed-
Grated and are conspiring and confeder-
ating together with the said companies.
to cheat and defraud your petitioners 50
as to gain possession of their lands for
themselves or for their said companies.
under pretense Of allotting said lands IN
their official capacity as said Dawes Com
mission. to divers persons who are will
ing to enter into contracts Of lease and
sale with representatives OF said trust and .
land companies, in which the members
of said Dawes Commission are inter
ested."
The Secretary of the Interior is charged
with unlawful acts to defraud the IN
dians, such as that of encouraging white
men who have married squaws to make
claim to Delaware lands.

mittee John II. Mullen of the Thirty
sixty, a strong minority man, appealed
for fair play. He reiterated what had
been said by the previous speakers and
he appealed to the delegates to vote for
the amendment. Mullen was interrupted
time and again. and, despite the opposi-
ton TO his remarks, finished his speech.
The amendment was lost by vote Of "a

motion. George +. Gallagher arose and

-HE Democratic municipal con
vention has not yet reached a
condition of harmony. For a
time last evening il looked as
though the majority and minor
1ty had buried their differences and a
united Democracy, for which Franklin K
Lane, the nominee for Mayor. so devout-
edly wished. had come, but all this was
dispelled when the Committee on Super
visors submitted its report on eighteen
names 10 be placed on the ticket at the
coming municipal election. The minority
submitted three names to the committee
and only two were accepted. Edward
Rock, Carl Westerfeld and Charles Yves
ley Reed were the choice Of the minority.
Reed was inimicaI to the rulers of the
majority and his name was stricken
from the list and the name Of Edward
Gleason substituted.
When the minority learned of this
there was a howl Of indignation, and in
an instant the entire convention which
had beeen a harmonious gathering. be
came a turbulent one. There were cries

for him to take a hand in the debate, and
he handed over his gavel to Walter de
Martini and in a dramatic manner deliv-
cred a speech in which he tried to put
it up to Gallagher. but the latter would
not have it. Hickey was fervent in his
remarks and was loudly cheered by the
friends of the McNab crowd. He said:
