FALSE, SAYS ROOSEVELT.
Usage Indian Land Charges by Has
keII Are Denied.

Muskegoo, Okla, Oct. Exchanging
Governor Charles, N. Haskell with
making deliberate falsehoods," de
liberately misstating plain matters OF
truth" "making assertions with a will
full disregard for the truth" Presi-
dent Roosevelt, thru the commission
er of the Five Civilized tribes, issued
his reply to the governors charges per-
tanning to the Usage oil leases.
The reply is a statement issued "for
the information of the Usage Indians
written in the third person and is not
a direct personal reply to the charges
made by the governor. In regard to
the issuance of a statement instead
of a personal letter. Mr.. Roosevelt says
as Governor Haskells disregard for
the truth is Wilful, no reply will be
made to him personally, but President
Roosevelt and Secretary Garfield are
not willing that the Usage Indians
should not know the truth about these
matters, in order that they may not
be deceived by Governor Haskells
false statements.

ter to the president charges that the
president acted unfairly to the Usage
Indians in the matter of fixing the roy

Kern Charges That 100000 Has Been
Been Put in Circulation in Indiana
During Past Few Days-state Of
fetal Alleged to Have Handled Fund
Makes Vigorous Refutation.

Indianapolis, Oct 27-John w Kern
started on his second days tour OF In
diana today. He is scheduled to make
seven speeches before he reaches De-
catur, where night meeting will be
held. AT Upton Kern said
Il am reliably informed and make
this specific charge that 100000 of
money, largely contributed by the
trusts and combines, was brought into
Indiana last Sunday and passed thru
the hands of Hon. Fred Sims, secre-
tary of state"
John w. Kern made the above dec
laration before good sized audience.
II think that every thoughtful. pa
triotic citizen will see the necessity for
the publication of campaign contribu-
tlons before election" said Kern.
Kern reviewed the action of the re-
spective conventions of the leading
parties with reference to the publicity
of campaign contributions, and contin-
ued:
Il do not wonder the republican par
ty this year is declining to give the
names of men and corporations that are
supplying it's sinews of war. If the
people of Indiana knew the names of
these donors, Bryan would carry the
state by 100000. Such publication
would disclose the fact that every un-
lawful combination in America has
poured money unlawfully absorbed
from the peoples earnings into the
republican treasury for the purpose Of
debauching the ballot"
Reverting to the alleged 100000 con-
tribution recently brought into this
state. Kern continued:
"Sims is most estir.,able gentleman
and warm personal friend of mine,
but am compelled to say it's sad
spectacle to see public official who
is required to pass every year upon
the question as to what amount of
taxes shall be levied upon the railroads
and other corporations of his state,
handling money that these corporations
are called upon to contribute to the
campaign fund. The assessing or tax
ing officer who has the power to raise
or lower the taxes of corporations has
rare facilities for frying fat out of the
corporations whose properties they are
required to value. hope the time may
allowed to neglect his official duties
and engage in such questionable
business"

organizers of the brotherhood, the Ia
Dor vote seems to be pretty evenly d.
vided. The men. he said, are not ex-
pressing themselves to any extent and
it is hard to learn just where they
stand. He reported that most of the
men of his brotherhood are with Judge
Taft, because they always found he
treated them square when they asked
anything that was right. He said there
was less interest taken in this cam
paign abong the laboring classes than
in previous elections, and that the la
boring people are not aroused over it.

Supreme Court Of Illinois Rules on
Law Regulating Sale Of Gallon Lots.
Springfield, Oct. 27.-The supreme
court holds that foam is not beer and
cannot be measured as such This point
was made in decision in a case from
Mercer county involving the whole
sailing law prohibiting the sale Of lid
uor in quantities under five gallons.
Ola Nylin. proprietor Of a roadhouse.
was heavily fined for, selling beer In
so-called five gallon cases. He gave
tickets calling for the number OF bot
ties, permitting customers to take
bottle or two at time punching the
number Of the tickets accordingly. This
the court declared was violation OF
law and sustained the lower court
which assessed heavy fines.
The contents Of the bottles Of a case
of beer were poured out. Ut was
shown there were but four and one
half gallons in the case. Nylin insisted
the foam should be measured To
make the five gallons. The supreme
court decides to the contrary.

dressed crowd OF night workers in
city hall park, then. after a few hoprs'
sleep he spoke at Broadway meeting.
Thence he went to Brooklyn and Long
Island City, later crossing to Jersey
City, making speeches at each place.
Unemployed Not Interested.
Bryan's audience, in the city hall
park was composed principally of en-
ployes in the big newspaper offices on
Park Row, the telegraph offices and
the general postoffice, while here and
there a yellow "duster' marked a
listener from one Of the big markets
where work does NOT cease with dark
ness. A brass band entertained the
crowd with badly played patriotic airs
until the arrival OF Bryan and party,
and number Of lesser lights in the
political field, spoke briefly, but neith-
er of these Interruptions, nor the ar
rival or speech Of Bryan himself, dis
turbed the regular patrons of the park
benches, scores of whom slept on un-
their out of-door sleeping place.
Mrs. Bryan Speaks.
Bryan was accompanied by Mrs.
Bryan, and Chairman and Mrs Mack.
Bryan eulogized the workers of the
country and spoke at some length on
the various issues of the campaign.
Mrs. Bryan made .aer first speech of
the campaign at the reception rendered
her yesterday by the Woman's Demo-
cratic club. When called on to speak
she rose without hesitation and said:
II might have felt confused, but for
the rule that exists in our family that
during campaign time Bryan is to do
all the talking. While can make no
extended remarks, there are two things
which I might touch on with proprlety.

conceals her age, shall take you into

therefore, merged MY own in his and
out Of this has grown a very close as

At the rooms Of the Order of Acorns,
on Broadway, Bryan spoke to a vast
assemblage. Hundreds were unable to
gain entrance to the hall. He was pre-
ceded by Lieutenant Governor Chan
ler whose remarks were devoted to
state affairs. Bryan discussed the plat
forms of the two big parties, and in
conclusion said: We cannot tell just
now, the size of the sweeping victory
we are going to win, but indications
point to very large one. Reports from
Ohio, Iowa, Kansas' Wisconsin. Ind
lana and Illinois, will tell you that
all those states will vote the demo-
cratic ticket. If their reports are true,
we will have so many votes that by
