iotments Of Land IN
This Section.

The celebrated case of Bette Ligon
ct al vs. the Secretary of the Depart.
ment of Interior. Governor Johnston

hearing before the L. : Circuit
Court of Appeals ON Dee. g. This
statement Wa made by attorney Al
bort j. l.cc of the firm of Sans and
Lcc. who represent the plaintiffs In
the case.
This ease is one of the most inn.
portant that has ever been heard in
this section of the country. and
should the plaintiffs hc sustained in
their position every title and allot
ment in the Chickasaw and Choctaw
nation will be- affected. and In all
probability will compel a new allot-
ment Of all of the lands of the two
nations.
The case was brought ON the part
of Bette Ligon Chickasaw freed
man on behalf of herself and about
500 other Chickasaw and Choctaw
freedmen to test the question as to
whether or not freedmen with Indian
blood In their veins were entitled

the nations the same as fun bloods
in As much as they. had Indian

The case was argued last April be-.
fore Judge Townsend by Sans and
Lee on the part OF the plaintiffs and
u. 5. Attorney Walker his assistant
James Humphrey and Man field.
McMurray and Cornish on behalf Of
the two nations and the government
The contention of Tn. plaintiffs is
that the lands of the Choctaw and
Chickasaw nations were given to the
nations in fee simple by the govern
mcnt under the treaty of 1880 made
| in Tennessee. while the contention OF
the government was that no title in
fee simple was given and that the
| government had no intention of Civ.
ing a title in fee.

appe Hate court of the Indian Terri
| tory late In the summer and the

and feel very much elated as resul
lof my investigation. The govern

Flyer Was Held Up Near Butte,

Butte, Montana.-The North Coast
Limited, east-bound, on the Northern
Pacific Railroad, was held up by two
masked men, near Welch's Spur, a
siding eighteen miles east of Butte,
at 2.15 a. m. After killing the engi-
neer and shooting the fireman, the
robbers, who planned to blow up the
express car, containing a large sum
of money, ran down the mountain
side and disappeared in a gulch.
On the tender of the locomotive
was found a telescope valise filled
with giant powder, evidently intend
ed for use in blowing up the express
car. The men boarded the train pre-
sumably at the Butte transfer, where
a locomotive for the Montana division
was attached. One mile west of
WEIGH the men crawled over, the ten
der and with drawn guns commanded
the engineer to stop the train, which
he did. James Glow, the engineer,
made a show of resistance and one of
the robbers shot him through the
body, killing him instantly. The
other man shot at James Sullivan, the
fireman, breaking his arm.

COURT STAMPS 1T VALID.
State Has a Right to Supervise Rail-
road Time Tables.

Washington, D. C.-Tne Supreme
Court decided in effect that the Rail-
road Commission of North Carolina
can compel a company operating in
that State to so adjust its schedule
as to accommodate passengers on
other lines from any particular part
of the State. The commission or
dered the Atlantic Coast Line to
make connection at Selma at 2.25 p.
m. with a train on another line run
ming from the eastern part of the
State. The company resisted on the
ground that it would involve extra
expense, which, itcontended, amount
ed to taking property without due
process Of law.
The settlement of this principle is
of timely concern in New York State,
since the Public Utilities bill now
pending at Albany gives to the State
Railroad Commission just the power
and authority declared by the high
est court in the land to be proper.
