sioners are calling upon the Indians
to work out their poll tax, and the In

ty three Indians were warned to ap-
pear for work and they refused. They
were arrested and fined $40 and costs,
which they also refused to pay and
went to jail. In Hughes county an

his poll tax and he was let off. Re

NEW ORLEANS WILL GET
 SOME OF CEMENT TRADE

Washington. March 9.-The Senate to- day discussed at considerable length Senator Frye's joint resolution providing for the carrying of materials for the Panama canal in American bottoms only
 MT. Frye advocated the adoption of the resolution, saying that at least 5000,00O barrels of cement would be required in the work and that so long as foreign ves- sels were permitted to compete it would be impossible for the domestic ships to participate in the transportation because of the difference in cost, both in construc- tion and operation. He said that in both these respects British built ships had an advantage of at least a third.
 An amendment by Senator Foster of Louisiana providing that the restrictions should not apply to the gulf ports or any part of the United States from which vessels of the United States could not be secured for the trade was accepted by MT. Frye. Senators Fulton of Oregon and Bacon of Georgia sought to have the amendment extended to the northern Pa cifc and southern Atlantic coasts, re- spectively, but were unsuccessful. MT.

 The bill of Senator Frye of Maine, pro- viding for the transportation of cement, coal. iron, lumber and other material to he used in the construction of the Pan ana canal and stipulating that they be carried in ships of American bottom, was through the efforts of southern sena- tors amended so as to include south Atlantic and gulf ports.
 Senators Johnston and Bankhead arc making arrangements for fixing a day in the Senate for eulogies upon the late Senators Morgan and Pettus The eulogies will take place the latter part or thlS month or early in April.

securing cement on the isthmus, said it would cost $1 ,o0O,OOo to erect plant there for that purpose.
 Mr Culberson said there was need of protecting the United States from extor- ton by the monopolies that would be ben efited by the resolution.
 MT Bacon thought the resolution should not leave the discretion to the President to determine that American ships should be given this business when their charges were not extortionate nor unreasonable He wanted the restriction mandatory, so that every bidder could know what he would get in the way of transportation.
 MT. Tillman, declaring against buying cement in the United States at greater cost than elsewhere, called MT. Lodge to his feet with the statement that If he wanted free cement he should apply the same principle to lumber and other mate- rial used on the canal or in this country.
 'I would like powerful well to have that done." retorted MT Tillman, "as 1 represent a good many farmers who would be benefited by cheap supplies.
 MT. Tillman added that the need for campaign funds made it necessary to look after the interests of the shipping trust.
 The resolution was then laid aside with the understanding that it would be taken up next Wednesday.
