lEcARTHUR IS ACCUSED. ~-ow Petition for Removal of Indian ~ s1lza cE Agent.


 washington, Dec. 9.-A petition for the removal of E. T. McArthur. superintend- ent of the Neg Perces Indians in Idaho, was filed at the Indian Bureau to-day by Senator Hepburn of Idaho. It is signed by 15O allottees among the Nes Perces
 The petitioners charge that after am nouncing last summer that no rents would be received or disbursed until Mo- vember l. and after nearly all the In- dians had gone to the mountains, Super- fntendent McArthur received rents and withdrew his deposits from the national bank and placed them Tn @ newly organ ized bank at Cul de Sac, of which J. S. Martin, the chief clerk of the agency, is president; A. J. Montgomery. assistant clerk, director, and the petitioners be- lieve McArthur himself a heavy stock holder.
 The petition also charges McArthur with not attempting to suppress the in- troduction of liquor on the reservation; that he makes provisos in the Indian leases that work hardship; that he is ill., tempered and threatens to withhold rents from Indians unless they send their chil- dren to the government school.

annual payments of 5000 each. The first payment. under the terms of the bill. was due December 1.
 A few days ago Auditor sowell receiv- ed a letter from Hon. Harry Pillahs of Mobile, demanding as attorney for and on behalf of DIP. Bestor, president of the Mobile Medical College, that the Auditor should draw his warrant for $500 for the first installment of the appropriation which. he claimed. had been legally made. Mir. Pillans stated that the bill was duly passed by both houses of the Legislature and sent to the Governor six days before the finai adjournment oe the House, sun day excepted, and was not returned vy him to the House v ithout approval
 Mir Pillans's communication was refer red by Auditor Soweil to Attorney Gen erai Massey Wilson.
 In his opinion MT. Wilson said:
 The Governor did not approve this bill. He was doubtless under the impression that if he did not approve the bill 1t would not become a law, having reached him less than six days on which the Leg islAture was in session, but more than six days including days on which the Legis- iature was not in session.
 An Unsettled Question.
 5'It is. an unsettled question in this State whether In eetimatfng the SIX daya-tne days on which the Legislature Is not In session are included. The bill appropriates money out of the State Treasury. It did not pass by two-thirds vote of the mem bers. but 1t did receive a majority vote. If the institution is wholly under State control a majority vote for the bill Is sufficient, if not a two-thirds vote Is nec- essary. These questions are to be decid- led by the courts. The proper course for you to pursue to let the courts decide upon the questions is to refuse to draw the warrant and to let the interested par tise commence mandamus proceedings" !"
 Auditor Sowell has written Mr. Piilans communicating the opinion of the Attor- ney General with, its grave doubts as to the constitutionality of the bill or law. He notified Mfr. Pillans that he would in compliance with the advice of the Attor- ney General decline to draw his warrant.
 lt is expected that manuamus proceed ings will be inaugurated in the near fu- ture.

NO MONEY,
 SAYS SOWELL Has No Warrant For Mo-
 bile College. CLAIMS BILL IS LAW Medical Institution May Begin T, Mandamus Proceedings: Governor Did Not Approve Measure Xppropriating sso.ooo and col-e E lege Contends It Became Ef-
 fective without His
 Signature.
CLAIMS BILL IS LAW

Auditor T. l.. Sowell has declined on the advice of Attorney General Massey Will son to draw a warrant in favor of the Mobile Medical College under an appro- priation bill. which passed both Houses of the Legislature, but which was not signed by Governor Jelks.
 1t is confidently expected that the board of directors of the medical college. which Is a branch of the University of Alabama. will resort to mandamus proceedings to compel the auditor to draw his warrant for the first instalment of the appropria- ton which would now be due if the bill was a law.
 The board of trustees of the medical college claim that the bill is now . law notwithstanding 1t has not been signed by the Governor. They claim that the bill became a law under the operation Of the constitution, having been sent hD the Governor six days before the final ad- journment of the Legislature. It Is not denied by the friends of the college that the six days as computed to support their claim included days on which the Legis. lature was in session, and days on which it was not in session.
 The Governor in his course towards the bill probably considered that six work ing days of the Legislature, six days on WhlGH tuC A<ENsuANeNt0 WNS AN 0GCSAOhs was required before the bill could under the constitution become a law without executive sanction.
 Opinion of Attorney General.
 In his opinion Attorney General Mas sey Wilson says that the question .involv- ed is an open one, and one for the courts to decide. ssA
 As to whether the bill is dead or a law in operation another delicate legal point is involved, that Is, the bill should have been passed by a vote of two-thirds of the members of both houses, inasmuch as it is not State institution. The con- stitution provides that bill appropriat- ing money to any institution not under State control must receive Q vote o8 two- thirds of the elected members of both houses.
 The friends of the medical college claim that although it has e self-perpetuating board of trustees, 1t is none the less a State institution, being a branch of the University of Alabama. Being a State institution as they claim, only a majority vote of the members is required to ap- propriate money to it.
 It is easily seen that an interesting legal fight will hinge upon the efforts of the board of trustees of the medical college to secure a mandamus directing the Au- ditor to draw his warrant for the part of the appropriation now due.

S~e@AA
 W. B. Brinton.
 Chicago, Dec. 9.-"If the fight for the cIosed shop is allowed to continue, there win be scenes of bloodshed in this country that will surpass the days of the French revolution. The closed shop is un-AmeIt- can. unrighteous a restriction of the lib- critics of our people, and death blow to the individualism that makes for suc- cess"
 The foregoing sentiment expressed by w. B. Brinton, President of the Peru PIow Company, has been cheered by six hundred members of the Illinois Manu- facturers' Association at their annual banquet.
 "Our rights" declared Mir. Brinton, 'are dependent on the settlement of the QIies- tion once for all as to whether an em. blower can hire whom he pleases without belnR subject to the action of any organ ized body. The Chicago City Railway has won a great victory in establishing its right to engage its own employees Without this right, which is becoming recognized by the great mass of people, the commercial supremacy of the United States will be at an end. Another speaker declared that after tha abolition of the closed shop, the re- movaI of the union label was the most important thing that came under consld. | eration of the Manufacturers Associa- | ton.
