Need Of Legal Adviser.

Want Of legal adviser still keeps the
board in a quandary. Admiral Baird an
nounced yesterday that he had received re-
plies to his letters to the Commissioners
and to the President on the subject. The
Commissioners. through Mr.. West. replied
that according to a previous ruling Of the
corporation counsel that officer had no au-
thority to give official legal advice to the
board, but that the Commissioners would
request the corporation counsel to act In
formally when matters OF extreme Inn
p0rtance arose.
Commissioner Vests letter follows:
''Tho Commissioners of the District OF
Columbia have the honor to acknowledge
receipt Of your letter asking whether they
will authorize some law officer under their
authority to advise your board upon such
legal questions as may arise In your pro-
ceedings when necessary.
ION the I'd Of August the Commissioners
received an opinion from the corporation
counsel In which he stated that the board
Of education had no authority to refer any
questions to the corporation counsel. and
that the act creating said board does not
provide a law officer for the board. The
corporation counsel added that II the Dis
trict of Columbia, or the Commissioners,
should be concerned in any Of the matters
coming before the board of education. the
Commissioners may, of course, refer the
questions to the corporation counsel
while the Commissioners agree with the

PAYING OFT THE oHERoKEEs,
How the Indians Received Their
Money and Paid their Debts.

VAAo -n"A"Ao reeCelVeu Inolr
Money and Paid their Debts.
The Cherokee nation literally roll
ed in money when the six ana one
half million dollars received from tho
sale Of the Cherokee strip was dis
bursed among the tribal citizens. The
per capita share was $265.7O. The
payment was made usually with two
$l0O bills, one $50, one $40, one SIS
and seventy cents ir silver. ! y s
The money was disbursed bv Zeke
Starr, treasurer, and Henry Effort,
assistant treasurer Of the nation.
Most Of the Indians were in debt,
and creditors swarmed in towns
where the payments were made. T.
A. Latta,. who attended these pay
ments, in recalling incidents lately
said:
"Much has been told of the dis
honesty of the Indians, but in this
payment there were many examples
of integrity. At Tahlequah an old
full blood woman, perhaps sixty
years old, widow, drew for eleven
participants in the fund. She had
traded with many of the merchants
who sat at the tables between which
she had passed. After the money
had been counted out to her she
swept the entire amount into her
apron and holding corner in each
hand, she passed from trader to tra-
der, pausing before each until each
had taken sufficient amount to bal
ance her Indebtedness. Not once did
she count the change or investigate
the account. She was honest, and
conscious Of her own integrity did
not question the sonesty Of another.
This was only one case. There were
scores like it, and, though not pleas
ant to reiterate, the confidence thus
placed was sometimes betrayed.
There are cases where the greedy
creditors took handful and gave
back no change.
GA mixed blood of some astute-
ness came to settle his account with q
trader. In looking over his account
he discovered charge for a side sad
die, amounting to $15. He had not
made such purchase and had the
bill remedicd without trouble, the
willy old trader merely telling his
boollkeeper to place the item to John
Does account. The bookkeeper him
self is authority for the statement
that in this way that self-same sad
die was collected for eighteen times. /"
The Clarmore bankers were in at
tendance from Coffeyville, seeking
deposits for their banks. One store
IN the town had a safe Of moderate
dimensions and security, and this
store was headquarters for bankers
and collectors alike. The merchant
himself had mere bagatellc of some
$l2O,000 on the payment. After sup
per the counting room was filled with
collectors and bankers. A parlor ta-
Bile was called into use and money as
high as ones chin was stacked on
e;'ory inch..
It was the minute for verifying the
memorandum Of the day. On one par
ticular evening there was on this ta-
bic at one time close to half million
of dollars in crisp new treasury notes.
Lapsful of money? There were wag-
on loads of it! 1t was no uncommon
thing to change a hundred dollar bill
for five cent sale. And the scarcity
of change was responsible for charg-
ing twenty-five cents for changing a
bill of that dcnomiation.- Bartles-

DISCUSSION OF
REFEREE

TONOPAH. New. Dec. 1s.-A referee
for the Cans Herman fight will be
chosen tomorrow Cans declared to-
day that he will take no part in the
discussion or choosing. but will leave
it all to Riley and Lewis Joe says
anyone will suit him. He has nothing
to say against a single man named
and refuses to express a preference
Cans said he thought a San Francisco
man would bring a crowd from the
coast, but after that suggestion he
refused to declare himself for any
one Lewis is holding out for SiIer.
but, with no support from Cans, 1t is
practically certain that Riley will
name Jeffries.
Lewis tried tonight to get Cans to
agree with him on Siler. but Joe said
he would stick TO his decision to keep
out of the matter. A meeting will be
held tomorrow afternoon between
Lewis and Riley and the referee def
nitely named.
Cans again spared eight successive
rounds without rest today In addition
to the regular gym and road work.

a story published here this afternoon
Champion James J. Jeffries has agreed
TO fight once more, and will be seen in
finish battle for the worlds heavy
weight title next July
The big fellow, angry oyer the talk
that big Jack johnson had driven him
into retirement, so the story goes, sent
his acceptance Of the $4,000 purse Of
fered by Tex Rickard for him TO meet
Johnson, and now the match is as good.
as made.
Sam Fitzpatrick. Jonnson's manager,
was told by Rickard that Jeffries had
agreed to fight, and is now ready TO
fix up the Johnson end of the arrange
ment. Fitzpatrick went to Newspaper
Row this afternoon to tell of the boiler
that articles for the fight be drawn up
On the signing of articles Rickard
will post a guarantee for $4,000
purse. He desires to hold the fight in
the same ring in Goldfield. New, in
which Cans and Nelson fought for the
lightweight championship.

promoter, announced at the Hotel I'M
perial tonight his Willingness to give a
$4,000 purse for a somewhat novel
battle with James J. Jeffries. champion
of the world. as the central figure
Rickard wants Jeffries to fight Phila-
delphia Jack O'Brien and Tommy
Burns TO finish in one ring on the
same day, the event to take place at
Goldfeld early in May.
From what / have been able to
gather on my trip through the East
and West. said Rickard, "the sporting
public is quite satisfied that OBrien or
Burns has no chance individually
against Jeffries. They believe, how
ever, that both of them would cause
the big fellow to extend himself in one
day, so / have decided to try and give
the public what 1T wants. I will hang
up purse of $4,000 for the event. and
the fighters can divide il as they see
Mt Now, 1t is up to Jeffries, O'Brien
and Burns to meet and sign articles OF
agreement I don't think Jeffries can
have much cause for complaint. He is
q big, powerful man. and as the cham
pion, l don't see how he can refuse the
offer If Burns and O'Brien are willing"

BROOKLYN BOXER
COMES TO MEET
BRITT

After many delays Willie Fitzgerald
the fighting sharp of Brooklyn. will
surely arrive here today and the de-
tails of his match with Jimmy Britt
will be settled at once. No hitch is
expected unless Fitz cannot make the
weight required by the Californian.
The latter will be under a slight disad-
vantage in not having had a fight in
some time. while his prospective op-
ponent has had bouts at the rate of
about one week for long time past
This all counts, as practice helps as
much in the ring as in any form of
competition Britt has made up for
his lack of competition by taking an
unusually long time to prepare for his
next appearance in the ring, and his
work viii be watched with interest
throughout the country. He VIII be in
the city today to sign the articles,
which will then be presented to Fitz for
his approval.
Britt has been offered one of the
rich matches which brought the Nevada
promoters into prominence recently To
lose to Fitzgerald would mean that he
would have to take back seat. and
the Brooklyn man would be the boxer
sought by the men OF the mining dis
trict.
Willis Britt has arranged a we'll

be full of action, as O'Brien cannot ex-
