PUNISHMENT TOO LIGHT.
Sec. Hitchcock Will Keep After the
Nebraska Illegal Fencers.

Washington. Nov. 16.-Scc Hitchcock
was. today. unotficially informed that IN
the matter of the prosecution of Eartleit
Richards and w. G. Comstock in the fed
eral court at Omaha for the all gcd fenc-
inc of a12OoO acres of government land
in Sheridan county. Nebraska, upon plead
ing guilty the defendants had been sen
fenced to remain for six hours in the Gus
toby of the United States marshal and
pay Il fine of $500 each.
you car say" said the secretary in
discussing the verdict. that am sur
prised and indignant. The punishment is
utterly inadequate. The indictment was
the result of four years determined effort
and the expenditure of thousands of dol
lars bv the department We had selected
the large operators in the hope that the
result would be warning to those en-
gagged on a smaller scale: That the case
was a strong one is evident by the fact
that the men pleaded guilty The result
is discouraging, but I'VE SHAH not cease our
efforts. they have promised to tear down
their fences and if they do not keep tn
promise they will be indicted again ana
again until thev learn the laws are made
to be obeyed We will not let up.

NO FOREIGNERS APPOINTED
To United States Consular Service BY
Secretary Root.

Washington, Nov. 16.-Not d single
foreigner has been appointed to the
American consular service abroad since
Sec. Root assumed office, with the in
tcntion of meeting the demands of the
business world for a general improve
ment of the consular system as far as
he can without waiting for Congress
sional action, this marks one of the
reforms that the secretary has adopt
ed. Sec. Root feels that it is his duty
to put none but Americans on guard
Aside from the fact that a foreigner
might naturally be expected to take
less interest than an American in the
development of our trade abroad, 1t is
felt that i'm time of political stress,
where international relations might
become strained. no such test should
be placed upon the loyalty of the for
eign consular agent to his native coun-
try as would be imposed by requiring
him to do his full duty to the country
which merely employs him.
So although q number of vacancies
have occurred in these minor places
since Sec. Root assumed Office he has
held consistently to the policy above
laid down and where it has not been
possible to secure Americans to fill
the vacancies the offices have been al
lowed to remain vacant. of course
the vacancies cannot continue indefi-
nitely but the secretary hopes that
with the pressure of the business world
behind him congress will yield to his
appeal for more liberal compensation
for these small ports so as to enable
him to send out American officials.

Notwithstanding the fact that a
coroner's jury, physician and two
attorneys have all examined the
body, taken the testimony of several
witnesses, and declared that David
Wolf, an allottee on the Umatilla
reservation, took his own life. many
Indians are dissatisfied and believe
the man was murdered. The Indian
was found dead Sunday morning in
cell at the government school, his
body hanging by the neck, suspended
by means of large silk handkerchief
from a grating. The coroner's in
quest was held in the afternoon, and
verdict of death by suicide returned

faction continued to spread, and yes

/ torney T. G.. HALEY and Attorney Dan
P. Smythe visited the tepee of Wolf
and made further Investigation.
There is not the least question in
my mind" said Mr.. HALEY, but that
the Indian committed suicide by
\ hanging. Such a deed is not without
precedent on the reservation. About
10 years ago a squaw killed herself in
almost the same manner in which
NTn1f Aaath Shn tn a
barn and with a piece of rope for a
moose hanged herself from a harness
peg. She placed her head through
the moose, and then catching her
ankles with her hands held her feet
from the floor until unconscious from
strangulation. In the county Jail a
few years ago, an aged German far
mer under arrest for attempting to
kill his wife, strangled himself TO
death by means of pair of suspend
ers tied to the bars of his cell.

suicide. Last summer Jim Joshua

came to PARIS house and broke out

his hand, and that they caught him.
There is said to be bad blood existing
between Parr and some of the In
dians, and the tribesmen suspect him
of being responsible in some manner
for the death of Wolf.
Mr.. Smythe has an explanation as
to the probable cause of Wolf com
hitting suicide. "Wolf was drunk
when locked up at the school, said
Smythe. when he awoke and found
himself in confinement with blood on
his hand, l believe he thought he
had killed some one while in a

ADMIRAL CLARK
LEAVES THE NAVY
Hero Of the Oregon Retires After As
Years Service.

WASHINGTON, Sept. Rear Ad-
miral Charles E. Clark, who, as COM
mander of the Oregon in the Spanish
war, became a national hero, left the
navy on Thursday. August 10. He
spent As years in the service and had
reached the statutory age of retire
ment.
Clark was born in Vermont August
10, 1913. He entered the naval acad-
envy at Annapolis in 1860. Before
the completion of his cadetship he
was ordered to service in the civil
war as a midshipman.
When war with Spain was declared
Clark. as captain of the Oregon, was
on the Pacific coast. He was ordered
to proceed quickly as possible to the
West Indies, his ship being badly
needed to reinforce SIMPSONS fleet.
Clark made a trip that amazed the
naval experts of the world. Not only
did he make the voyage at a speed
greater than had heretofore been
maintained on long trip by battle
ship, but when the Oregon arrived at
Florida the sturdy fighter was fit and
ready for battle. 1t had been expect

department of California, has just
left here to act as General Bells
assistant
Ten officers will be selected by the
war department to take the course
of instruction the first year and later
the number will be increased.
The men will be taught every class
of field work. including automobiling
and tree telegraphy.
Heretofore this class of work has
been limited to the signal corps men
alone, who made themselves proficient
in such work as would facilitate in
slant communication between officers
of different regiments during a war
Now the war department thinks 1t
wise that every officer understand the
features of signal corps work. With
this end in view. the school at Fort
Leavenworth is to be established.
Major Squier, who will ltake such
an active part in this new depart
ment. has already gained much prom
inence by his interesting experiments
in tree telegraphy. His experiments
at Camp Atascadero. near Paso
Robes, Cal, last August, were start
ling in the extreme as they revealed
truths which have been hidden from
science. and now have opened up a
new field for research and expert
ment for botanists and physicists
along lines which have never been
attempted.
The work which brought Major
Sauier before the public was the re-
suit of an incident occurring during
the maneuNers of the sicnaI cnrns a I
