Washington, Feb. 2O.-S. F. Lucas,
the postmaster at Bonestecl and presi-
dent of the Commercial club at that
place, has arrived here to appear be-
fore the committee on Indian affairs
of the senate to repudiate the memo

against the ratification of the treaty
with the Rosebud Indians for opening
up their reservation for entry under
the homestead law on the ground that
So per acre is not an adequate pay for
the Indians to receive for their lands
Mr.. Lucas is armed with afidavits
showing that the pay offered by the
government to the Indians is suffi
cient and that thousands of acres of
land adjoining the reservation can be
purchased for $3.50 per acre.
Senator Gamble said that the Rose
bud bill would be passed at a very
early date in spite of protest.

, 1t can be stated that up to this mo-
ment q decision has not been reached
as to the answer to be made to the
Russian government. It is said that
the reasons assigned for the declina-
ton to, receive Mr., Morgan are en-.
tirely impersonal. In fact Mr.. Nor
gan, having been for several years one
of the American secretaries of en-
bassy at st. Petersburg, is really very
popular with the Russian officials, who

not forbid. 1t is explained that the
reason for Russia's action is purely
military, the army officers desiring
that there shall be no foreign officials
on the Liaotung peninsula during the

King Edward took leave of Lord Rob-

feeling was shared by the public to
such an extent that it threatened to
lead to serious attack on the govern
