Territorial Leases
Agricultural Tenants Must Have
Improved the Land the
First Year.

Muskogee, / r., Jan. I7-Mr.
Shoenfelt, Indian agent, ruled to-
day that in cases where persons had
taken fve-year agricultural leases
ON Indian allotments and had failed
the first year to put any part Of the
land in cultivation, the lease is void
and persons 50 occupying allotments
will be removed by the Indian po-
lice, The ruling has caused con
sternation among lease men. There
are hundreds of thousands of acres
thai will be subject to this ruling.
Three-fourths Of the leases made
have not been in cultivation the
FIRST year, and in many instances
the money was paid FIVE years in
advance. Attorneys filed notice to-
day that they would ask an in
junction to prevent the agent from
removing the lease holders.

Detained by snowstorm.

The Weems line steamer Calvert, which
left this city Thursday afternoon for Bal
timore arrived at that city yesterday, over
twenty-four hours late. The steamer was
detained partially on account Of the snow
storm, which forced her to lay at Aiexan-
dria until Friday morning. and then by the
Ice in the river and bay. In her battle
with the ice she ran out of coal and had to
Law up at Cove Point until the steamer
Northumberland of the same line was sig
nailed, and from her the Calvert obtained a
supply of coal to carry her to Baltimore.
She was thirteen hours making the trip
from Cove Point to Baltimore, q run that
is ordinarily made in five hours. The Cal
vert will leave Baltimore today and will
make an effort to come to this city.

each. For their issue third and fourth
class postmasters get the entire fee of 3
cents. First and second-class postmasters
employ high-salaried clerks for this work,
and the cost to the service is still greater.
The paying of the orders, the bookkeeping
and the transmitting of them to Washing
ton entail heavy outlay for salaries, with
out penny of compensating revenue; SO
that in addition to the loss of time, in go
ing to the post office, applying for money
orders, and awaiting their issue, is this adj
ditional pecuniary loss to the government.
When the tour of the office had been
ended the visitors asserted that Congress
should, without delay, adopt some plan
whereby this expensive and burdensome
work could be reduced, or, at least, it's
enormous growth discouraged.
The remedy for much of this evil, officials
say, lies in the adoption of the post check
plan, as post check currency would require
no auditing. The bill embodying this plan
is now before the House committee on post
offices. A favorable report on 1t Is ex-
Dected at an early day,

George E. Lorenz was the day before they

Your father saw at once that Inns

what ironically.
The witness said he did.
'IorenZ never mentioned the names ol

would help him TO get the fasteners lhto

No" said the witness.

Beach.
Another point that the government mace
during the croSs-examination OF D1llef r.
Croft bv District Attorney Beach was an
apparently unequal division OF pronts pc
tween the Groffs and Lorenz rms was
shown by a comparison of a warrant re-

TO REMOVE SNOW AND ICE.
The Senate Passes Resolution Recently
Passed by the House.

The Senate today passed the House reso-
luton appropriating 5000 for cleaning
snow and ice from the crosswalks, streets
and cutters of the city.
When this resolution came up Senator
Hale suggested that it was odd that money
for such purposes should not be put In the
hands of the Commissioners as an emer-
gency fund, so that they might begin as
soon as snow falls to keep the crosswalks
and other portions of the streets clear, IN
stead of waiting four or five days after the
snow stops For one, he was willing 10
trust the Commissioners with a suinclehI
Senator Allison, replying to Mr.. Hale,
said that he agreed with him, and that the
Senate committee had endeavored to nave
such an emergency fund In the last appro-
priation bill, naming 5000 as the amount,
but the House of Representatives, in Its
wisdom had insisted upon cutting the
amount down to 81 600 Members OF the
House appropriations committee had stateo
that they would be ready to appropriate
anything further that would be needed, out
they had refused to agree to providing an
emergency fund that might be available at
any time. ,.
Allison said. and the Senate adjourned last
Friday today being the first time an oppor-
tunity had been presented since the SNOW
storm to provide money for cleaning the
cutters and crosswalks. It was simply a
case of doing this work late or not at all
For his part, Mr.. Allison said. he would be
glad to have the senator from Maine (Mr.
Hale) use his influence on the House con
ferees on the District appropriation bill to
have them agree to appropriate In the next
District bill a sum sufficient for such work
whenever 1t is needed.
The resolution was then passed py the
Senate. and Senator Gallinger, chairman OF
the District committee. in view of what had
been said, promptly prepared an amend
ment to the District appropriation bill for
the next fiscal year allowing $lo,OOo to De
,,sed in the discretion Of the Commission
ers. This proposed amendment was re-
farred to the District committee.
