MORE BURTON CHANGES.
Assertion That the Kansas Senator
Practlced Other Frauds.

Assertion That the Kansas Senator
Practlced Other Frauds.
Washington, D. C.-The publication
of the charges against Senator Burton
of taking fees from the Chickasaw In
dams while he was Senator Embossed
the tongues of high officials in the In
terror Department and two other Sc
rious charges came out. One is that
Burton never made any appearance
in business for the Chickasaws before
the Interior Department, but that he
represented to the head men Of the
tribe that he did, and collected large
fees from them for his alleged services.
Burton, before he became Senator,
represented to Secretary Hitchcock, it
is said. that he had been selected by
the ChiclSasaws as their counsel, and
asked him, as Secretary of the Inter
ior, to approve his contract with the
tribe. Mr. Hitchcock refused to- do
so on the ground that the Chickasaws
did not need an attorney Notwith-
standing this rebuff Burton, it is
charged made the Indians think he
was looking after their interests, and
proceeded to collect his pay from their
funds. which were not under the con-
troll of the Secretary of the Interior.
Another charge against the Kansan
is that while he was Senator he pre-
scented a claim from a ranclhnan in
Texas to she effect that the man lost
800 cattle during fight between Uni
ted States forces and COmanche In
dams, which took place on his ranch.
The amount claimed was $25, 900, for
which Burton succeeded in getting
judgment In favor of his client.
A number of men who lived in the
vicinity are said to have reported to
the department that while there was a
fight the claimant never had 800 cat
tie, but had at the time about eighty,
and they were fully 200 miles away
from the scene Of the fight.
