SIOUX City. Iowa. oct. 29.-After
being excluded from the investigation
at which Indian Commissioners Jones
invited him to prove his charges of
corruption on the WinnebagO reserya-
tion Father Schell today made public
a letter from one of the most promi-
nent republican politicians in Nebras-
ka, stating he would accompany
Father Schell to Washington. in case
the present investigation, conducted
by Inspector \. O. Wright, proves
another WhiteWash.
The matter will be taken to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Hitch
cock, and inasmuch as the politician
who has agreed to back Schell is Of
national influence, there seems excel
lent prospects of having the frauds
probed to the bottom.
Father Schell is much incensed
against Inspector Wright because the
latter publicly announced that the ac-
cused grafters had done banking
business for Green Rainbow entirely
on the square. Green Rainbow had
testified that notes had been paid three
times and that checks had been taken
from the mails and indorsed and taken
over by the banks without his ever
seeing them.
A dramatic incident in connection
with the inquiry occurred when Green
Rainbow leveled his finger at Wright
and suddenly declared:

What do you mean?" demanded the
Inspector
L mean that they have tried to buy
me and you are acting the same way
Don't mind him." interrupted Father
Schell, "he is going only by appear
