Moi esNer Hne uepcrsetsS3.
Nathan, Joseph, Reuben and Moses Stinz-
Ter, brothers, were in the Essex Market

Of immigration Inspector Robert Walsh
and Policeman Brueck OF the Eldridge
street station house. Moses Stinzler, who
has been in the country but eighteen months,

was in charge OF Walsh and an assistant
named White.
The party stopped at 90 RivinRton street,
where Nathan and Joseph Stinzler live, TO
get Moses's clothes. 1t was early after
noon and the streets were crowded with Jews
on the sidewalk with the prisoner and
Walsh went up stairs
As soon as he got inside the Stinzler fat,
Walsh says. he was set upon and beaten.
The commotion spread and in a moment
the whole house was in an uproar. A
Thousand people collected before the door
and White hustled his prisoner to the
man Brueck was sent back with him.
In the meantime Walsh had been trying
TO get out OF the house. He had forced
his way partly down the stairs when the
cop arrived. Brueck fought his way up
the stairs n rescued Walsh. Then he
arrested the three Stinzler brothers and
got them safely to the station house.
Reuben, who lives at 1872 Allen street
was fined IS for interfering with Brieck'
Walsh, who wasn't sure whether or not he
had authority to make an arrest, wanted
the other two prisoners taken before A
United States Commissioner. Magistrate
Sweetser accordingly held them In 81. OOo
each TO give Walsh an opportunity to make
a complaint and have Federal warrants

Police Commissioner Bingham handed to
the reporters yesterday a copy Of a letter
which he received from J. Lincoln Steffens,
who a few weeks ago announced that he
would be n witness for Insp ector Max
Schmittberger at the inspectors trial. Gen.
Bingham made no comment whatever on
the letter. 1t reads:
Sept. 20. 1900.
MY DEAR GENERAL BINGHAM;
1t il due you. I think. to know in advance
that I have told Insp ector Schmittberger
that ! would testify. IL he wished. to the fact
that you said to me that you meant 10 get
him.
And IL is due me. I think. TO have you I'M
derstand that | V venture TO commit this breach
OF etiquette in the hope OF helping TO defeat
a more serious offence upon your side, viz:
sitting in judgment upon the case of a man
whom you have already found guilty. l
say this to you not as a reproach, but simply
in explanation of my repeating part of a
private conv e~rsation.
Also. how ever, I am actuated by the con-
~viction that a police officer, who had many
powerful friends when he did not do his
duty, has been bounded ever since he set
out to do right and made to feel that he has
no friends. except a few who have n o pow err.
Yours very truly. J.kINcoLN STEPHENS.

CHERoKEEs MUST PAY $4,000
Court Decides That the Indians Attorneys
Are Entitled TO Their Fee.

AVuEN ~GNHuNo hb'N -
Are Entitled to Their Fee.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2l.-Acoording to a
declsion handed down by Justice Gould
of the District Of Columbia Supreme Court
to-day, Attorneys S~inkleberg, Neagle and
Kirby OF st. Louis and Edgar Smith OF
Vineta, Indian Territory, will receive a
fee Of $50. 600 for representing the Cherokee
Indians In land claim cases. Justice Gould
held that the contract to pay the attorneys
the fee was valid and had to be lived up to
by the Indian nation.
some time ago the Cherokee Nation paid
attorneys $3.50, 600 as fee for legal represent
ton in connection with the land claims.
The litigation just closed was instituted
by Attorney Boudinot on behalf Of the
CneroKees, who prayed the Court to enjoin
the Secretary OF the Interior and the Treas
urer Of the United States from paying the
LAWYERS the $50 900 on IN ground thai the
contract TO pay them that amount was not
ratified by all the Cherokees. Counsel for
the plaintiff contended tina in view Of the
fact thai the contract for the payment
of $3.50, 900 was not sanctioned by the Chero-
kee Nation as a whole, but merely Endorsed
by the principal chief, Thomas Buckingt on,
it was invalid.
The court ruled hat the contract was
executed in compliance with an act Of Con-
gress under which 1t was made Justice
Gould said hat Congress has the power 70
prescribe the way in which claims in behalf
Of Indians should be prosecuted, snd that
the contract was properly drawn.

Two alleged green goods mel fell into

They gave their names as Thomas Ryan,
"a years old, OF 90 Madison street, and
James Gilbert, 40, living at IA West Forty

Some time g the postal authorities
notified Inspector Mclaughlin tina: green
goods operators had been sending adver-

Mich Inspector Mclaughlin arranged
through the postmaster of that flace to

The steamship Baltic OF the White star
Lane got into port yesterday morning with
the Rev. Cbarles.H II. Parkhurst, who has had
his annual outing in the mountains Of Swift
zerland. The ministerial reformer returns
In fine health and voice.
DR.. Parkhurst has kept In touch With
Affairs here. When the reporters found
him he started right of with a boost for
the nomination Of Charles Z. Hughes for
Governor. He handed Q sockdolAgor to
William Randolph Hearst, scolded District
Attorney Jerome, gave Police Commits
sioner Bingham and the present admins
tration fits for trying to railroad Inspector

may seem, he had to confess that he didn't
know Bill Sulzer.

he said. and instead Of wasting breath
mentioning and discussing the men named
why can't some one or some party put up
a man Of sterling character, unquestioned
integrity, whose candidacy will be a credit
to the great State Of New York;
When the question Of a Republican oandi-
date was mentioned the minister said, with
emphasis:
Il have great regard for Charles e.
Hughes, and IL he runs for Governor he
will be my candidate
DR.. Parkhurst then wanted to know II
anything had been said against Mr.. Hughes.

that some people were saying that the In

Mr.. Hughes"
The preacher then switched to Mr.. Hearst.
There are many good things about Mr..
Hearst, but he is tainted in the minds OF the
people of New York, and to mako him a
Governor would be a disgrace to the State
Asked what the faint was, DR.. Parkhurst
replied solemnly;
"A moral faint

ownership have brought him a folio wing,
and there Is a feeling OF unrest at present
in the minds of the public that makes a
man Of that class popular"
DR.. Parkhurst then took up District
Attorney Jerome. He said the people had
lost confidence in the District Attorney
because since his election he hadn't shown
the tremendous enthusiasm hat he had
shown before.
