SEEK VOTES OF
INDIAN DANGERS
Special to Daily Panhandle.


Tulsa, /. 7, Sept. 1O,--Indian
braves and sQaws; clad in the gar
ments OF their savage ancestors,
dancing wildly to the monotonous
music" of tom-toms, while palefaced
political orators are circulating among
them, seeking votes-this Is the
strange sight to be witnessed this
week at the old Indian camping
grounds on Bird Creek, ten miles
north of this city. There the Shaw
nee Indians today commenced their
last great stomp dance, which will
continue three days In addition to
the hundreds Of Shawnees from all
over the new state, a great host Of
redskins OF other tribes are taking
part in the festivities. Nearly all
are CARRIED in aboriginal costumes.
The Indians realize that with the
coming of statehood and the re-
sponsibilities OF citizenship the old
free life must be abandoned; and the
present stomp dance thus assumes an
unusual and pathetic significance.
Candidates for office OF both political
parties are on hand and will use
utmost endeavor to secure the sup
port of the indians in the election to
be held next Tuesday.

Lewis A. Cook Victim Of Almost
Fatal Accident Yesterday.

Lewis A. Cook Victim Of Almost
Fatal Accident Yesterday.
Lewis A. Cook, a young machinist
employed at the Water & Light Co. S
plant, in installing some of the new
machinery, is at the sanitarlum suf-
fering from a wound in his skull
that almost caused his death. Yes
terday Cook was working around
one OF the wells across Second street
from the power plant and while he
was under the tower a massive iron
hook from the top Of the forty foot
tower dropped and struck him on
the top of the head. The blow splin-
tered his skull and for time he was
wholly unconscious. He was taken
as soon as possible to the sanitarium
and there the surgeons on first ex-
animation gave little hope for his
recovery. Last night DR.. McMeans,
assisted by others, operated on the
injured man and removed splintered
fragments of bone from the wound.
Several clots of blood which had
formed were also removed After the
operation, Cook rallied remarkably
we'll and spent a favorable night.
He is man of strong constitution
and today, the surgeons express hope
that he will completely recover.
Cook is unmarried and came here
a. few weeks ago from Sandusky,
Ohio, where>his mother now lives.

THE COAL MARKET.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE Black Dia-
mond will say this week: There is a
marked improvement in the state of
the market this week. The heavy snow
storm, together with continued cold
weather, has hindered transportation
and accentuated the demand for most
firm and on the upward trend. Very
little spot coal is available owing to
the fact that operators have curtail-
ed the supply on account Of the slump
in the market which existed the last
of January. Youghiogheny and Hook
ing are in good supply, but there is
not very much coal of this descrip-
tion going to demurrage. The strong
est Goals on the market are smoke
less mine-run and other West Virginia
products. Damage caused by floods
along the Ohio river greatly interfered
with transportation. The G. & o.,
as we'll as the X. & NJ and L. & M,
have not yet been able to take care
of freight traffic on normal schedule
time At Cincinnati large blockade
has predominated during this week.
The outlook for good brisk business

coming depleted and some sales
agents are receiving kilograms for
rush shipments to the northwest.
Contacts which have been executed
indicate that the coal industry on the
whole is in a very healthy condition.
The large number of new enterprises
which are entering the field and the
enlargement of plants on the part of
present operators is a promising
status of the trade.
Anthracite Market Active.
There is a great shortage of nut
coal at most of the docl and sales
agents, in general, are refusing to
take orders for coal of this descrip.
ton unless accompanied by requisi.
tons for the other sizes. Continued
winter weather is accentuating the
demand; statesmen report that the
tailers are ordering a limited quaint
ty of coal, not knowing how long the
cold weather will continue. They
are influenced by the fact that the
first of April is not far away at which
time they expect to purchase hard
coal at the usual discount. The prices
f. o. b. Chicago for crate coal this
week are: 1925; egg. stove and nut
$3.50; buckwheat, s4.25 to $3.50; pea
$4.75 to $500 f. o. b. Chicago. Some
of the docks are entirely out of nut
coal. The anthracite market in gen
eral is in good condition and it may
be anticipated that the present de
mand will continue or several weeks
One extreme usuall..- follows another;
the fore part of the winter has beer
exceptionally mild, and it is probable
that February and the first part O
March will be characterized by colder
weather and severe storms, causing
good active demand for fuel.
