[By Associated Pressl

Washington, March 12.-The inter-

preliminary steps toward compliance
with the Tillman-Gillespie resolution
adopted by congress directing the
commission to make an inquiry into
alleged restraint by certain railroads
in the handling of coal and OIL The
first step taken was the selection of

While some of the hearings will

toward traffic to tidewater and to the

from all parts of the territory to the

Wickliffe outlaws killed three deputy
marshals Sunday night, and at last re-

remaining officers. According to the
report received here the full-blood In
dians are going to the support of the
Wickliffes, who are Cherokee Indians.
The ambush laid by the Wickliffes
for the six deputies Sunday night was
cleverly laid. The officers were led
into it unsuspectingly and were fired
on without warning. The deputies
fought desperately and for time es-

DIFFER in OPINION
Senators Divided as to Justification OF
Presidents lntimation OF Congress
sionai Ignorance.
[By Associated Press]

Washington, March There was
sharp division of opinion in the SEN
ate today over the question whether
the Gillespie resolution in
structing the interstate commerce
commission ito inquire into the rail-
road holdings of coal and Oil lands
was of a character justifying the pres
ident's message regarding it. Senator
Tillman complained that the president
had charged congress with insincerity,
pretense and ignorance, and Senators
Lodge and Spooner took the position
that the charge of ignorance was war
ranted.
The debate was spirited, but was in
terrupted at o'clock, when the rail-
road bill was called up and Senator
Culberson made two hours legal ar.
gument in which he supported a bill
of his own, which he has introduced
as a substitute for the pending house
bill.
Senators Elkins and Bacon announ-
ced that they would discuss the resc
luton and message later and predic-
ted that several others would.

an attempted conspiracy on the part
OF Governors Mcdonald and Gooding

cution was sustained by the supreme
court today.
This means that Moyer, Haywood,
Pettibone and the others indicted for
the murder of Ex-Governor Steunen-

Counsel for the prisoners, who are
members of the Western Federation

been asked for it by the press and
city council many times, but has al
ways refused to allow it to be seen
by anybody. He claimed that Mr..
Dalyrimple came to Chicago as his
personal guest and that the report
was therefore his special property.
The city council finally obtained
copy of the report from Alexander
Walker, deputy town clerk of Glas-
Cow.
The report in effect is against the
municipal operation of street car lines
in Chicago, unless it has become i'm
possible to reach an agreement with
the companies now operating lines in
the city streets. He says the present
service and equipment are disgracerul
and should be remedied.

DUNNE IS HAPPY
Supreme Court Decision Adverse to Street
Car Companies Contention.
[By Associated Pre~sl

Chicago, March 12.-By the decision
of the United States supreme court
handed down today the city of CHI
cago obtains almost complete control
of the local traction situation.
The decision sustains the acts of the
state legislature extending the life of
the charters of the street railway
companies to 80 years, but does not
sustain the contention of the compan-
les that contract rights where limited
to fewer years than remain to the
charter life of the companies are also
extended. The contracts or ordi-
nances Of the city limiting the use of
the streets by the companies are up
held and the rights of the companies
in Chicago are held to expire accord
ing to the terms of the ordinances.
In its effect the decision leaves the
Union Traction company without any
rights whatever, other than by suf-
france in the streets of the north divi-
sion of the city. It leaves the Union
Traction company in the west division
without rights, except where the or
dinances contain purchase clause.

company. which operates all the

expected that they would yield with
out fight.
The Wickliffes killed Deputy Mar
shal Vier about a year and half ago
and the officers have been on their
trail ever since. A posse of six Off
GERS, who were on the way to arrest
the gang, were fired upon from am
bush by the Indians, who shot and
killed three of the pursuers and es-
capped unhurt. Plezz Mann, a posse
man, who survived the attack of the
outlaws, walked % miles to Table
quah and told the story of the battle,
which was telegraphed to United
States Marshal Darrough of this place
at 2:35 this morning.
Thirty-five deputy marshals were i'm
mediately sworn in and dispatched to-
the scene of the battle and authority
has been granted Marshal Darrough
by the department of justice at Wash
ington to increase the number to ZOE.
Marshal Darrough announces that ne
will employ this many men, If neces-
sary, to round up the desperadoes.
It is reported tonight that the full
blood Cherokee Indians in the vicinity
of the battle ground of yesterday af-
ternoon, commonly known as the
might Hawks" are joining the Wick
liffes and the authorities fear that they
will barricade themselves in the rough
country and a desperate battle ensue
before the outlaws are captured. The
Wickliffes are members of the Might
Hawk" band of Indians, which has
given the United States officers SO
much trouble in the matter OF taking
allotments and it is said that many of
these Might Hawks" sympathize with
them.

the street car companies were for SO
years and inside the city limits as
they existed in 1865. The companies
have extended their tracks as the
boundaries of the city have been en-
larged and have claimed that the ex-
tending lines which were built under
franchises of the city, were also op-
erative under the 99-year act. The
court has held, however, that the 99-
year act extended only the charter
life of the street car companies, with
out extending their ordinances.
The court also denies the claim of
the street car companies. that they
have been vested with the exclusive
right for 80 years to enter into con.
tracts with the city.
cit is a sweeping victory for the
city, said Mayor Dunno There are
no 99-year franchises in the city Of
Chicago according to this decision, and
no indefinite or perpetual grants in the
outlying territory. We have the trac
tion companies now in a position
where we can negotiate for the pur
chase of their lines. If they do not
want to sell at fair price, we can de-
clare our rights under the decision
