OBJECT TO ALLOTMENTS.
Montana Settlers Send a Protest to
Washinqton.

GREAT FALLS, Mont, March 90
Vigorous protests have been sent by
residents of Valley county to the sec
rotary of the Interior the commission
er of the general land office and the
Indian commissioner against the allot-
ment of some $4,000 acres of valuable
lands in that county to Indians from
North Dakota. The lands, if allotted,
will be exempt from taxation and the
Indians will be prohibited from leas-
ing them.
The tribes to whom it is proposed
to allOt the lands are those known as
the Turtle Mountain Indians. Their
reservation in North Dakota was re-
Gently coded to the government, and It
was at first planned to give them 9th
err lands in the same locality. The
people living there, however, protested
and Senator Hansbrough succeeded in
having the Indian department transfer
the band to Valley county, Montana
acres for himself and so acres for each
child.
1t is estimated that there are about
500 families and the general office has
designated lands along the Missouri in
hte vicinity of Culbertson as those to
be given to them
The protestants claim that the lands
are in section where land has been
in great demand. Hundreds of farm
ers have bought land Whereabouts and
many settlers from the east have es
tablished homes on the Big Muddy. Il
is feared by people in the vicinity that
if the Indians are allowed to settle
there there will not remain lands
enough to meet the demands of incOm-
ing settlers. 1t is also stated that
many settlers will leave the vicinity
rather than have 500 Indian families
for their neighbors.

ADJUSTMENTS
The Gadski Concert.

Nothing suwceeds like success is
an old motto, but is applicable to the
coming Gadski concert which became
an assured success from the box office
standpoint after the first days adj
vance sale.
The sale is still going merrily on.
and those who procrastinate about
buying will certainly be disappointed if
they wait to the last minute.
The musical worth of the program
is already assured, but it would be in
teresting to refer to the following
notice to show in what esteem Madame
Gadski is held where she is known:
1.-THE second part Of the program
served to introduce as soloist a
young pianist named Frank La Forge.
1t is no exaggeration to say that he
made a deeper impression than has
any other artist posing in the role of
an accompanist for years. His playing
is marked by sympathy, excellent
technique and unusual tone sweetness
Young La Forge has a future on the
concert stage that does not include his
appearance as an accOmpanist at all.
Gadski seems more fully developed in
her art today than when she made her
previous appearance in this CITY, Her
position among the great artists is
unique. since she is vastly under the
age Of her contemporaries of the late
Metropolitan Opera company, pos
sesses an unusual comeliness Of face
and figure, and seems to have attained
a vocal strength and purity equal to
that of the singers who are years be-
yond her
Throughout her program the Won
derful control under which she holds
her voice was evident but at no point
more so than in the Irish folk song of
the second part. The Years at the
Spring" had an electrical effect on the
audience, but her vocal triumph was
reserved for the very last, when, in re-
Spouse to repeated clapping, she gave
the Brunnhilde Cry from "Valkyrie"
Her concert on the whole leaves be-
hind it only the most pleasant of
memories"

nance, has decided to recommend a
vastly larger police force, as well as a
better equipped one. In round num-
bers the additional sum to be expended
to insure Chicago against the reign of
thuggery, is $1,450,OOO
The action of the finance committee
was taken after a long conference with
Mayor Dunno, Chief Collins and all of
the police inspectors and captains.
Among the recommendations the COM
mittee will make to the council are the
foil. wing:
That the police force be brought UP
to an adequate numerical strength by
adding 1900 men.
That a new police precinct be Great
ed with a new station.
That six new stations be provided to
replace inadequate quarters.
That a lawyer be employed to look
after and prepare records of felony
cases for the grand jury.
That a substantial increase in pay
be granted all lieutenants, sergeants.
patrol drivers, janitOrs and cooks.
In addition to the above the COM
mittee sactioned suggestion by
Mayor Dunno that electric lights be
placed at all alleys, and also voted to
equip all patrol boxes with signal
gongs as a means of reaching patrol
men on their beats in event Of emer-
gency.
OF the 1900 new men, 1855 will be
patrolmen, 100 mounted; htirty- five
will be patrol sergeants.

THE CUBAN CRISIS.

Hayans, Sept 28.-Secretsrs of War
Taft is expected to pro,lsim himself
Governor of Cuba today. Before night
fall, il is believed, the stars and stripes
will again float over the palace and
American marines and sailors will be
holding the town.
Onlv President Palms's reconsidera-
ton of his decision to resign is regarded
IS likely to stay this programme. Ii
Palma will remain at the head of the
government more time probably will be
allowed in which to effect settlement.
1t is not likely Mr.. Taft will consent
to the election of successor 70 Palms
by Congress. If there is to be provis-
ional government, it will be OF American
manufacture. No more time will be
lost by allowing Cuban politicians to play
with the United States.
Intervention will not be permanent.
1t will last only until new election can
be held to choose regular Cuban Presi-
dent. But the United States will police
the country until all danger Of disorder
is past.
II Taft proclaims himself ruler of the
country today, there is mild prospect Of
fighting. Fiery moderate leaders say
the Cuban army will oppose the United
States forces with arms. Little attention
is paid to such threat, however.
All preparations are completed for
landing forces from the warships in the
harbor the moment Secretary Taft issues
his proclamation. Congress is to meet at
2 o'clock, but there is still doubt whether
a quorum can be secured.
On the outcome of the session or the
failure of Congress to meet, probably de-
ponds the question of Intervention.
Havana, Sept. 28.-On representation
made to him at noon by Generals Memo
cal, Sanchez and Agramonte, that it
would be impossible to secure quorum,
of Congress by 2:30, the hour set for
Congress to meet. Secretary TAFT con-
ceeded the veterans who are working for
peace until 4:30, in which to secure the
quorum.
Liberal members are still undecided
whether to stay away from the session,
thus preventing a quorum, or to attend,
to give chance for Congress to take
action which may prevent Intervention.
Havana, Sept. % 1t nov appears
certain that a quorum will attend the
session of Congress as the liberals are
preparing to be present.

Disastrous Fire.

Cleveland, o., Sept. % "A stubborn
fire is burning in the six STORY building
of the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company,
in the central part OF the city. Glass,
paint, oils and chemicals are stored
there. The fire started from an explosion
in the oil room. Near the building are
many wholesale business places and
factories employing hundreds OF girls,
boys and men. also the newspaper
plants of the News and Press and the
Cleveland Theatre. The work of the
fremen is menaced by frequent explo-
SONS of chemicals. The building and
contents will be total loss, and efforts
are 10 force to protect the adjoining
property.
At 1915 the walls of the building
collapsed but no one was killed, although
several persons were injured.
