REJECTS PETITION
FOR A SUB-STATION
At UNION DEPOT
ERNHE..g UNWILLING TO DE-
FRAY The EXPENSE, FOR
THE PRESENT.
NAL CONE ACROSS LATER ON
Haroiy LiAo.y That New Building viii
Be Occupied Before The First Of
Year-Long Distance Telephone
Put In.

Tie prospect Of a downtown sub
station T. the local post Office has
temporarily vanished into thin air, al
though it IS probable that later on
the government may open up its peck
et-bcok and generously consent to
maintain this institution at the depot
About two months ago a petition
ives circulated in South Columbia,
which called upon Uncle Sam to es-
tablish a postal station at the depot
for the convenience of residents of
South Columbia. Postmaster Jackson
after ascertaining that Green & Pat
ton would be willing to furnish the
necessary office space free of charge,
endorsed the petition and sent it to
Washington. The department turned
the petition down for the reason that
there were no available funds. 1t is
probable that when the appropriation
for the next fiscal year is made that
the present appropriation will be in
creased, and that the sub-station will
then be established. 1t would cost
about $1,000 per month to put in and
conduct the sub-station.
Postmaster Jackson stated today
that there is but small probability of
a sub-station being established in the
business section of the town, and that
all mail matter will have to go through
the new post Office building on w.
Seventh street.
1t is hardly probable that the new
office will be moved into the new
quarters until after the first Of the
year, as the necessary fixtures have
not come. Postmaster Jackson is
having a long distance telephone in
stalled, for his private use.

LEUPP RIDlCULES

A statement made today by s NJ.

Of the Indian Rights Association, that
the association is preparing to make a
formal request for the removal Of the
Indian Commissioner because of his al
legged mistreatment of two Indians in
Arizona was ridiculed at the Indian Bu-
reau this morning. II was explained
that the Indians in question. namely.
Bi-a-lil-le and Polly. were imprisoned
at Fort HUachuca. Ariz., because Of
their acts of lawIessness and their long
records as outlaws and disturbers.
Bi-a-lil-le and Polly and seven other
Navajo Indians were imprisoned after
they had been found guilty Of a long
series OF depredatiOnS Commissioner
Leupp treated their cases exhaustively
in his last annual report Their re-
lease was sued for in the United States
tanned the Commissioner action. but
on appeal the supreme court of Arizona
decided that under the Constitution
the Indians had a right TO sue on a writ
of habeas corpus. Commissioner LeupI
appealed to the United States Supreme
Court from this decision, wishing tc
have a precedent to guide him in future
cases involving the liberty of Indians
under the jurisdiction Of the United

The statement that he has dealt un-
fairly with the Indians in question

With testimony that Thomas c.

American National Bank, requested

Hayes stands charged with embezzle-

Edward S McCeeney declared that
Hayes had approached him about
o'clock on the night of December i,
1891, and called him into the lobby on
the bank. He said that the recelVlnS
teller inquired as to the credit OF the
account. of James ]. Shea and asked HIM
TO honor all checks on that account as

wanted was the complete overthrow Of
the Governments Indian policy and a
reversion to the old, wild life Of the
tribesmen. 1 told Crazy Snake that he
cOuld expect absolutely nothing from
me- told him that the law was the
law, and would not be overturned. The
old chief who is not so ignorant as
he pretends TO be. laid his case before
Secretary Garfield and It was gone into
very carefully. Secretary Garfield told
him the same thing that I did.
Then various Indian societies and
lobbyists got hold OF Crazy Snake and
his people and made them believe that
they could secure the overthrow Of the
Indian office through legislation by
Congress. This hope has kept the aei-
tatiOn alive. 1 feel sorry for the chief
and his followers, but they have been
warned repeatedly that this thing would
end this way.
So far as the United States Govern
ment is concerned there is nothing to be
done in the Oklahoma situation Ad-
vices here indicate that the trouble Is
. between the State authorities and the
Indians, and there is nothing for the
Government TO do. II any Indians are
