the Creek nation. declares in a commu-

conclusion that Mr.. Bixby has used his
public office for private gain. William
Dudley Foulke, who was sent to the
territory TO investigate charges of al
legged frauds in connection with the
disposal of land Of the Creek nation.
filed his report with the secretary of

upon Mr.. Bixby's administration of the
affairs of the five civilized tribes.

Mr.. Bixby arrived here yesterday
and had a conference with Secretary
Hitchcock. To-day Mr.. Bixby, in all
probability, will be confronted by his
accuser, Mr.. Mott. Mr.. Foulke, whose
report is said to uphold in a measure
the allegations of Mr.. Mott, also will
be present. Interesting developments
are expected to follow. If Mr.. Bixby's
exclamation of transactions in which
he is alleged to be involved is salts
factory, action in his case will be sus-
pended pending a further inquiry.
Mr.. Bixby emphatically denies that
there has been any ~irregularity in the
administration of his Office.
