MINERALS EXIST THERE
But the GeoIogiSt Doubts
Their Paying Presence.

Norman. o. IT,, Oct. A.-There is per
haps no one in Oklahoma who has watch
ed the mining developments in the Wich'
tta mountains with greater interest than
has Prof. Gould of the University OF
Norman. He accompanied a government
party through and around the noun
tains, preparing a geological map Of the

kiowa country, ana since then ne mas

. number Of ,imes and has endeaYored
10 famiIiarize himself with the actual
conditions in that region. It has always
been Prof. Goulds opinion that while
there was doubtless a small amount of
various minerals--golds silver, copper,
etc.-in the mountains, The amount act
ually there was not as great as Indicated
by reporters sent out by promoters
When questioned by a reporter regard
ing the work Of a government expert,
Mr.. H. f. Balm, OF the United States
Geological Survey, who is conducting
some Investigations il the mountains,
Prof Gould said:
'I am very glad tat the government
has at last taken hold OF this matter.
If there is mineral of commercial value
in The Wichitas. it is time it is being
put on the market No one doubts that
there are small quantities Of mineral IN
these mountains, as in fact in almost all
rocks on the earths crust, but from my
observations the geological conditions
there are not such as would indicate the
presence of any considerable amount Of
either gold. silver or copper.
Mr.. Balm is a man of much experience
in these matters, and I see by the reports
in the papers that he is doing very thor
ough work. It seems that he is gong
down into the mines himself and secures
the specimens which are to be assayed.
Els report can be depended upon as
being authentic and should settle the
question. I am very much in hope that
his investigations will indicate that there
are deposits of value in this region, but
at the same time 1 am free to confess
that my hopes exceed my expectations.
No one will be more pleased than myself
IS mineral is found in paying quantities
Enough time, money and energy have
been expended in searching for gold in
these mountains TO have developed a

ties. If used in the rdight direction. The
mountains are honeycombed with shafts
and at the time Of my last visit were
still bristling with claim notices. AS far
as 1 have been able TO learn the only
persons who have made any money out
OF gold mining in that region up to the
present time are promoters who have
organized companies and sold stock

TO REMOVE HERDS.
Considerable Excitement Has Been
Aroused

Guthrie. O. T., Oct. 24.-According to a
Muskogee story, considerable excitement
is current throughout the Indian Terri
tory over the determined effort of Indian
Agent j. Blair Shoenfelt to remove large
herds of cattle which have been intro
duced and held unlawfully to Craze upon
Indian lands in the Choctaw nation, a
large cattle owner named Craig, of Tex
as, having brought heard of 1,40o head
into the Choctaw country He had arbi-
trarily fenced several thousand acres OF
land. expecting to herd Mississippi Choc-
taws and all of them on lands inclosed
When Agent Shoenfelt undertook to re-
move the cattle by instructing The IN
dian police to drive them out. Craig went
before Judge Clayton and secured writ
of replevin for the cattle. Not TO be foiled
in the performance of mis- duty, Colonel
Shoenfelt wired the commissioner Of In
dian affairs at Washington of the situa-
ton. quoted law and asked for instruc-
lions. Secretary Hitchcock promptly
answered to ignore writs of repleyin
from Judge Claytons court and TO pro-
coed with the removal OF the cattle.
Backed by the interior department. Col
onel Shoenfelt wired his police 10 proceed
Immediately to drive out the cattle. and
10 disregard any further processes OF the
court. His order is being obeyed, and
what action Judge Clayton will take to
protect the dignity of his court lie one
of the interesting features OF the pres
ent situation.
1t is generally conceded that the agents
action is a courageous effort 10 enforce
the laws and will be followed by contin-
ued vigorous action on his part to pro-
hibit further encroachments OF cattle-
men. There are many large herds held
unlawfully in the Choctaw nation that
will be subjected to the same action as
that taken with Craig
