WHITES SHUT OUT
From Claiming Indian Lands by 6u-
preme Court Decision.

Washington.-The supreme court OF
the United States today affirmed the
decision of the court of claims, in the
case of Daniel Redbird, the Cherokee
nation and others VS.. the United States,
known as 1.-THE white mans case" The
cases involved the long pending claims
of 1000 and 1900 white persons to par
ticipate in the distribution of the lands
and funds of the Cherokee nation be-
cause of marriage with members OF the
tribe.
The Indians strenuously resisted the
claim, contending that they had never
by law recognized property rights on
account of intermarriage. In passing
on the cases decided today, the court OF
claims held that the tribal lands are not
communal lands, but the whites who
acquired citizenship by marriage prior
to 1915 have equal interests with the
Indians. In the case of marriages into
the tribe since that time it was held
that no right of property had been ac-
ouired, except by those who had PAID
into common fund the sum OF $500. The
court of claims also held that white
husbands of Cherokee women who nave
abandoned their wives have forfeited
| all rights as Cherokee citizens, lnclud'
ing that of participation in the proceeds
of sales of Cherokee lands.

U. S. EMBASSY ANGERED.
Professor Criticised for %Denouncln9
Monroe Doctrine.

London, Nov. 5.-A Berlin dispatch
says.
The American embassy here is
profoundly chagrined at the speech
recently delivered by Prof. Burgess,
the occupant of the Roosevelt chair
in Berlin university, on the question
of the Monroe doctrine.
. THE remarks of Prof. Burgess were
made in the presence of the emperor
and practically amounted to this:
That no matter what American di-
plomatists might say, the Monroe
doctrine was obsolete and Germany
might continue her colonization in
Brazil.
The German government is circu-
lating thousands of copies Of Prof.
Burgess speech, which is described as
official.
The American embassy keenly re-
sents the speech, and the American
| colony in Berlin is organizing a move
ment for the immediate recall of the
professor from this capital"
