A communication has been received by
the officers of the Indian Protective
League OF this city calling attention to
the frequent arrests of Choctaw Indians
in Oklahoma on what IS termed 1.-THE
slightest provocation.' 1t is also stated
that Rev. w. F.. Toby. full-blood In
dian of intelligence, whose sole offense
is said to be that he is working for the

with arrest. and that threats to kill him
have been made.
The foregoing report was made by the
chairman of the Choctaw nation and it
will be submitted to the authorities Of
the Interior Department.
1t is alleged that the Creeks and Chloe
taws are not familiar with the laws OF
Oklahoma and when Writs requiring them
to work on the roads or to pay their poll
taxes are served on the mthe papers are
not complied with. Thereupon, it is adj
ded in the complaints made by the In
dams, constables, road masters and
other so-ca!led law officers arrest the red
men and cast them into jail.
The matter was appealed to the Indian

CONvlCTS SENT OFF TO BOARD
HUNDRED PRISONERS GOING TO
JAIL AT FORT SMITH, ARK.
Crowded Condition of Local Prison
Makes Transfer Necessary for
First Time.

One hundred prisoners will be trans
ferred from the United States Jail here
to Fort Smith. Ark, on account OF the
crowded conditions in the local prison.
by direction of the Department of Justice.
The prisoners to be moved are all long

A special train will leave the Union
station probably tomorrow afternoon. and
| will he sent straight through to Fort
Smith with as little delay as possible.
There will be no sleepers attached to the
Jail special. Two men will be assigned
to each double seat. so that the seat in
front can be turned over and the prisoners
sleep as best they may en- route.
This is the first time in the history Of
Washington that boarding Jail prisoners
in some other locality has been necessary.
Penitentiary prisoners who are in for
terms of more than a year are always

have to be returned to Washington to be
discharged.
Most of the prisoners are looking for
ward to the forty-hour trip as rather a
| lark There was considerable specula-
ton among the men as to whether they
would be allowed cards or other games
on the journey to pass away the time.
The men will be handcuffed two and
two for. the trip. Guards will be posted
in the back of each car to checkmate
any attempt to escape.
The authorities at Fort Smith have pre-
pared for the invasion of delinquents.
The thrifty officials of the state are rather
looking forward to this big batch of
boarders. The Jail there. used principally
for the confinement of Indian Indicators,
is now Almost deserted.
The authorities had not completed the
contract for the transportation of the
prisoners and guards to the western
prison. Until the contract is completed
the time Of the departure will not be
known.
Capt. Mckee. warden of the jail. is
making preparations to leave with the
prisoners in the afternoon. Unless there
is some hitch in the arrangements he Will
take lO5 prisoners. More than eighty will
be colofed. There will be no female pris-
oners in the party.
Capt. Mckee will have charge of the
party. which will be composed of twenty
six guards in addition to the prisoners
clan at the Jail. will accompany the pris-
oners, with supply of medicines. 1t is
expected that the prisoners will reach
Fort Smith Wednesday afternoon.
Capt Mckee said this afternoon that no
prisoner will be taken west whose term
will expire before March. Only the long
term prisoners are to be taken, and some
of them will have to remain there until
about the Christmas holidays next year.
