BIGGY AND KELLYS
RECORDS UNCOVERED
Citizens League of Justice Finds
Sensational Facts About
Chief and Aid

Personal inquiries into the character
and official records of Chief of Police
Biggy and Captain Of Detectives James
r. Kelly have been made during the
past two days by members of the police
investigating committee of the Citizens S
league of justice. From these inquiries
sensational charges against the two Of
fcials may develop this week.
Members of the committee have at
tended the Haas inquest to listen to the
testimony given there concerning the
actions of Biggy in. refusing Special
Agent William ]. Burns admittance to
the prisoners cell The theories ad-
vanced by Biggy and Kelly in direct
opposition to those held by District At
torney Langdon and Burns, as well as
Captain Duke of the police depar tment,
concerning the manner in which Haas
secured the derringer with which he
ended his life also have been considered
by the committee. but deliberation upon
this question has been postponed until
the verdict of the coroners jury is re-
turned
Statements were made by members of
the committee yesterday that. aside
from Biggy's actions in the Haas in
vestigation. much evidence has been
adduced from many sources tending to
show Incompetence on the part of Big
gy and Kelly. Not only has incompe-
tence been brought out, but the charac-
ters of both officials and their conduct
in a private and official capacity have
been probed. Out of this end of the in
vestigation has. issued much evidence
not in the least complimentary toward
them.
The police Investigating COMMITTEES
met last night with the executive COM
mlttee of the Citizens League of Jus
tice and reported upou the investiga
tion which it has thus far made into
the management of the police depart
ment.
According to statements made by sew
eral members of the committee definite
action as result of the inquiry will
be taken early next week. Until then
the committee will continue in it's de-
hberations and its work will be
guarded with the utmost secrecy.

result was that the sale went on as
usual despite the orders OF the agent,
according 10 those who sent in the
petition.
There the matter rests so far as
the Indians are concerned. However.
Major McFatrldge had heard moth
ing about protest being sent In TO
Washington.
Federal Inspector Mcclure when
questioned about the matter by the
Tribune said that he had not
heard the Indians had petitloned the
government. though he knew that
some of the Older Indians were Bit
terly opposed 10 the dipping propo-
sltion.
However. the horses OF the reser-
walton will be dipped. every one OF
them, whether they belong to the
whites or the Redmen. The work

in an effort 10 eradicate the mana
ger.
This order was made. Il Is under
stood at the instigatlon OF the bur-
eau of animal hasbandry. However.
the Indians pointed to the fact that
DR.. Mcclure In published inter-
view had stated I'm effect that the
efforts OF the bureau 10 stamp out
disease among the Indians horses
been rendered nugatory by reason
OF the inability or unwilllngness OF
the state veterinarian 10 cooperate
with the government. The federal
man was quoted TO the effect that
the horses belonging TO the whites
living In the immediate vicinity OF
the reservation were in just as bad
condition as those of the Indians,
and that Il would do little good to
dip the latters' horses. II the form
ers' were permitted to go as they
were.
SEEKING upon the published state
ments of DIR. Mcclure as justification
for their position, they eontended
that Il was unfair and unjust 10 the
Indians 10 compel them 10 go TO the
trouble and expense OF dipping their
horses, unless their paleface broth
ers were also compelled 10 do 80.
Anyway, and on general principles
Lo was opposed TO dipping. arguing
that his horses had always served
their purpose.
Moreover, Uncle Sans wards had
diverse other complaints against the
agent, all OF which were embodied In
the petition 10 the secretary OF the
interior.
They claimed that Major McFat-
ridge had designated the old agency
as the point for dipping. They OBJ
jscted TO this location on the ground
that II was too far from their horse
range: that their horses were vi.o
and untamed and that II would be
difficult task 10 bring the animals
there for dipping.
Another roar the Redmen leaders
registered against Major Mcfatridge
was that he had forbidden them 70
sell their horses, presumably before
they had been dipped. According 20
those who met here and sent the
petition, the agent had threatened 20
send any Indian 10 jail who sold his
horses without first securing his con-
sent.
Some weeks ago this matter came
10 a head. The Indians were having
their roundup under the leadership
of Gilbert Minthorn. round-op boss.
As his customary horse buyers from
various places were on hand 10
make purchases.
According 10 the petitioners, the
agent hearing OF the sales called Gil
bert 10 his once and forbade the
continuance Of the sale. The round
M boss declared that he would talk
N over with the other Indians. The
