ATTORNEY JoHNsoMs REMOVAL
President Roosevelt orders Removal
Of ATTORNEY for Snuihern nlstrict

President Roosevelt orders Removal
OF Attorney for Southern District.
The announcement in the press to
the effect that w. B. Johnsop, United
states district attorney for this dis
rict had been removed by order of
the president came as n great sur
prise to him and to the public gen
orally. There hadn't been the least
intimation that there was trouble in
store for Mr.. Johnson IL Is known
that he has been very active and Wig
orous in conducting the cases where
in the tribal attorneys were indict-
ed. IL Is also remembered that he
made several trips to Washington in
connection with the cases. The pub
lie will remember that an order was
made public some two weeks ago in
which the tribal attorneys were ex-
onerated. The public accepted the
fact that the cases were at an end.
But IL seems that Mr.. Johnson for
some reason has not dismissed the
cases and the press dispatches would
indicate that the dismissal order
came as a result of his holding them
up
1t is known that several kilograms
passed between Mr. Johnson and the
attorney general yesterday. Johnson
is still in office. He was asked for a
statement yesterday, but he maintain
ed n rigorous silence.
Around the court house the great
est surprise was manifested. Devel-
opments are expected today in con
nection with the matter.
The telegram sent out reads as
follows:
Washington. Dec. 1S.-By direction
Of the president the attorney general
has removed from Office William b.
Johnson. United States attorney for
the Southern district of Indian Terri
tory.
This follows the insistence of Mr..
Johnson against the judgment of the
president that the Chickasaw warrant
cases should be prosecuted. He gave
notice of resignation If the action in
the warrant cases was longer defer
red and his removal is doubtless con-
nected with that intention. Presi-
dent Roosevelt recommended the dis
missal of the warrant cases to whicI
Mr.. Johnson took exception.

Damaue Suit.

The case Of w. II. Rice VS.. c. o.
q G., railroad. suit for damages to
,he extent Of $500 consumed the
most part Of the day in the district
court yesterday. Mr.. Rice sued
the road on the charge that the
culvert running underneath the road
in the northeast part of this city was
not sufficient to carry toff the water
that accumulated on the right of way
when a heavy rain fell, with the con.
sequence that the water backed up
over his lots, damaging them to the
aforesaid amount. Attorney Dolman
represened the Choctaw while w. /.
Cruce appeared for the plaintiff AT.
ter the argument the case was given
to the jury and after some delibera-
tion a verdict was returned for $3.50
in favor of Mr.. Rice.
