PREVIOUS JUDGMENT
MODIFIED
SUPREME COURT CHANGES ITS
OPINION RELATIVE TO
UNIQUE POINT.

Washington, Dec. lin deciding
yesterday the case of the United
States VS.. Bob Cclestine. the supreme
court of the United States modified
to some extent its previous Judgment
as to the effect of the patentins Of
land to Indians.
In the previous case IL was virtual
Is held that under the general allot-
Inent act such a patent was equivalent
to comforting citizenship on an In
dian. but in the opinion handed down
yesterday. which was by Justice
Brewer IL was held that cases in
which patents had been granted un-
der such conditions the general allot-
ment law would not apply.
The Cclestine case grew out of the
alleged murder Of an Indian by Cele-
stine. who is an Indian patentee ON
the Tulalip Indian reservation in the
state OF Washington. He was indict-
ed In the United states circuit court
for the western district of Washington
and resisted the jurisdiction of the
court upon the ground OF citizenship
received from the allotment by the
government. He eontended. therefore
that he was entitled to trials in the
courts Of Washington.
The circuit court sustained this con-
tcntion. but that decision was reversed
by Justice Brewers opinion.
Justice Brewer said of celestine that
although he had been made citizen
OF the United States and of the state
of Washington II did not follow that
the United States had lost jurisdiction
over him for offenses committed with
in the limits of the reservation.
