ANSWERS nAsKEtLS CHARGE
Usage Indians say that the Governor
Made False Statements.

Muskogee,S Okla, Oct. ga state.
ment was received Sunday at the Of
fice of the commissioner of the Ave
civilized tribes from the interior de-
partment at Washington with instruc.
tions to publish the same for the in.
formation of the Usage nation, directly
concerned, and the five civilized tribes,
incidentally interested and to take
every necessary step to bring 1t to
the notice of the individual Usage In.
tlians. The statement is an answer
to Gov. Haskell,s recent charges, for
the information, of the Indians of the
Usage nation and says:
Gov. Haskell's recent open letter to
the president charges that the presi'
dent acted unfairly to the Usage In.
dians in the matter of fixing the roy.
atty for the lease OF their oil lands
to the Indian Territory Illuminating
Oil Co. Gov. Haskell's statements are
deliberate falsehoods; nor does he sug.
gest a possible remedy. AS his dis.
regard of truth is willful. no reply will
be made to him personally, but Presii
u0ib NOOst'Nib uhu OCNtNNaiy
are not willing that the Usage Indians
should not know the truth about these
matters, In order that they may not
be deceived by Gov. Haskell's false
statements. For this reason they send
to the Indians the truth about each of
the charges he makes. The statement
takes up Haskells charges in detail
and analyses them to show their de.
liberate untruth.'
The statement concludes: Haskell
attempted by deliberated and reiter.
ated falsehoods to give the false I'm.
preston that he is championing the
interests of the Indians. The depart
ment knows OF one matter in which
he has shown a practical interest in
Indian affairs and this was when he
procured plots of valuable townsite
lands from the Indians, the methods
of which procurement are declared to
be fraudulent in suits filed against him
and now pending in courts, to recover
for the Indians the land which he had
thus procured"

strongly point to murder. A large
hole had been torn in the lower por.
tion Of his face by a charge of shot

place on Friday to go rabbit hunting
Accompanied by another man he was
seen going toward the woods where
his body was found late Friday after.
noon. The suggestion that he was the
victim Of an accident or shot himself
is discounted by the fact that his gun
and ammunition and all his valuables
had been taken.
An old cap and several shattered
twigs were picked up In front OF the
body. These bits of wood, the author
tiles say, show. that the charge of shot
came from some distance and not from
Denny's own gun. An examination OF
the wound in Denny's face seems Ia
indicate that two charges struck him
and that the shot was not of the size
he used. The police have arrested
three negroes who admit they talked
with Denny early on Friday afternoon
but they declare they know nothing
OF the shooting.

JUDGE SLOAN HOLDS : STORM RESPONSIBLE
Identification Which Grew Out of Famous Robbery of County Treasury Comes Up in Court And
 Gains Decision.

In the civil suit yesterday against storm for the recovery of the balance
 of inc shortage, defendant attorney
 claimed that his client was only liable
 for the amount of the judgment recov. cred less the s2,s6s.2O collected by the sureties for the stale cheeks. His con tcntion wss not upheld by the court, who decided that Storm was responI.
 ble for all deiinquencies in the treas ury reported after the robbery. Cred.
 it was allowed Storm in the shortage for salary due and some vouchers which had been paid but not entered on the accounts.
 Legal authorities now claim that the stale checks aggregating $zys6s.2o paid to storm for taxes were never paid in to the county treasury and that the taxes are still delinquent. They hold that the payments of the amounts to storms suretics were not legal pay. ments for the taxes, iassmuch as tse amounts were included in the sl0,00o compromise made with the board of supervisors for the original shortage. It is rumored that the properties own. cd by the persons who issued the stale cheeks vii be entered on the back tax hook and suits instituted for ib- col lection of the taxes.
 Still another legal feature is being discussed in tais promised legacy of lawsuits of the Storm case. Attorneys learned in the law go so far as to claim that the parties who made the stale checks good to the suretics have q cause of action against the sureties as the amounts were not paid into tho county treasury in payment for their taxes in the usual way.
 Farther developments in this mael- strom of legal snssnglements arc eag. erly await by the several parties con. cerned. Tne persons who made the 70. called stale checks good paid the amounts in good faith and are nevss sarily expected to contest any further effort made by the authorities to Toy the amounts again.
