ROOSEVELT LECTURES INDIANS.
Tells Delegation That Industry is Bet- ter Than Gambling.

Washington, March 2S.-President Roosevelt soundly lectured party of his callers to-day. They were Ogallala, Sioux Indians, who, it is said, are more addicted to horse racing and gambling than they are to the pursuits of agri- culture. The president endeavored to impress upon his visitors ideas of in dustry and thrift. While the lecture was being interpreted the Indians list ened in solemn silence. As they emerg- ed from the executive offices their faces beamed with smiles.
 The callers, who were presented to the president by Representative Burke, of South Dakota, included several chiefs The president told them they ought to dispose of at least half of their ponies and increase their holdings of cattle. He frankly told them that if they would stop horse racing and gam bling and devote their energies to cat tie raising and agriculture they soon might become valuable citizens. The policy of the government, he said, was to take care of the older Indians, but that the younger members of all the tribes soon would have to look out for themselves, as other citizens do. The old Indians present cordially approved of the presidents remarks.

SULLF,s COLLAPSE.
Creditors May Request Him to Msk
 Another Proposition.


 Another Proposition. New York. March 23.-It was report ed tonight that D. J. Sully will be ask ed tomorrow by the creditors of the firm of Daniel !. Sully & Go to make another proposition for settlement. It was stated that the acceptance of this proposition, if at all satisfactory, would be practically certain and would in yolve the immediate reinstatement of Sully on the Cotton exchange.
 The action was brought about, it was stated, by the fact that bankruptcy proceedings would be drawn out, and that certain creditors with large claims would be seriously affected by the delay in getting ready money.
 It was said that this action was prob ably hastened by the report that Leh- man Brothers and Atwood, Violet & Go. has retained Samuel Untermeyer to institute supplementary proceedings against the alleged members of the bull pool who are said to have deserted MT. Sully.

l for Lack of lmterosf fm Politics. Practical Municipal Politics. of the extremely practical sort formed the top I ic of the address of William Travers Jerome. district attorney of New York city. at Woolsey hall last night. Mir Jerome frankly said that he would con- fine himself to the humble art of vote getting" and this he did by taking the district leader of the New York species as the most successful specimen of vote getter. The moral that pointed his tale was that academic reform" is futile, and that this is due to the disinclnation of college bred men to fight the district leader on his own ground and with his own weapons.
 Mir. Jerome spoke by invitation, and arrangement of the Yale city govern ment club. and introduced by Thomas 1 D. Thacher, and his audience filled the hah All departments of the university were represented and his statements that college men should play an active part ill politics were roundly applauded by the undergraduate element.
 ] Mir. Jerome, short and frail of stature but with a strong, ruddy face, paced the stage neryously as he talked. Only I occasionally did he pause and this was for but a moment when he drove home the conclusion of some sensational statement or came to the point of a droll story. The lack of a sense of hu- nor, for which failing he once criticized former Mayor Seth Low of New York. was certainly not apparent in the lighting attorney and whenever he chose he drew a hearty laugh from the hearers.
 He began his speech by saying that he intended to avoid the pretentions of academic theories. and to keep well within the fundamental axiom of suc- cessful politics that is contained in the word get the votes" Political emi- nence, he asseverated, is ordinarily sprung from this simple art of vote get i ting for as he said. "The Lord in His infinite wisdom builds San Juan hills | for only a few people"
 He described his adventures with two weighty tonnes on municipal politics that cost him $5, and said that after much labor he found the following sign post to success: "The state is an ethnic unity residing in q geographic unity''
