HASKELL FIGHTS BACK.
His Forces Attack United States Attor-
neys Through Petitions in Court.

Tulsa, Ok, May 1S.-Sensational al
legations concerning the official conduct
OF sylvester r. Rush, special assistant
to the attorney general and United
states District Attorney Gregg, of the
northern district of Oklahoma. are
made in two petitions filed in the fed
eral court here this afternoon in con-
nection with the Muskogee town lot
fraud cases.
One of the petitions is signed by GER
tain members OF the grand jury that
was discharged last Saturday by John
a: MarshalI upon motion of District
Attorney Gregg, who asserted that the
jury had been subjected to. improper
influences. This petition refutes this
charge and in turn makes serious
charges against Messrs. Gregg and
Rush. 1t alleges misconduct before the
jury, efforts to intimfdate and coerce
the jury to return indictments against
Governor Haskell and other defend
ants regardless of and contrary to proof
presented, and petitions the court to
investigate the jurors allegations.
The defendants also filed a response
to the motion of District Attorney
Gregg disputing the charges of impro-
per influence. This response alleges
misconduct upon the part of Gregg as
pertaining that he has used the Tulsa
World, of which he is stated to be
part owner, to mould sentiment and
prejudice the court and grand jury
against the defendants; that he stated
that he was after Haskell and asso-
eiates and that no one else would be
prosecuted; that he stated to Mr.. Allen
of Muskogee, that he was a personal
enemy of William T. Hutchings and
would send him to the Denitentiary at
all hazards, that Greggs partners in
the Tulsa World, had stated to
prominent merchant of Tulsa that it
was a political prosecution started by
William r. Hearst. the New York edi-
tor and by Theodore Roosevelt against
Governor Haskell. The allegations are
urged to prove their claim that Gregg
[ is an improper person to conduct the
present prosecution before the grand
| Jury.

TWO WIVES SEEK DIVORCE.
One Charges Cruelty .and the Other
Nonsupport.

Two divorce cases were filed in dis
trict court today. Mary Mitchell has
had about enough of John Mitchell, a
section hand on the Union Pacific. She
says they were married two years
ago, and that he has spent a major
portion of his time since then in prac-
ticfng upon her a stunt known in
legal parlance as extreme cruelty.
He gets $40 per month, and is alleged
to be able to support her, but won't.
She owns the household goods, and
they own jointly six hogs and a spring
wagon, and she wants her legal share
of the collection.
And Ida Coons would like to be di-
vorced from A. B. Coons. These
Coons were married in 1890, and have
grown children, but it is alleged in the
petition that he fails to support the
plaintiff, and makes her support her.

The many old friends of "Pie''
Jorden, now limited as to operations
by the walls at Lansing, having been
sent there a year or so ago for
larceny and burglary from the Provi-
dent association, will undoubtedly be
glad of this opportunity to hear
from eccentric pie" He writes
thus:
Mr. r. w. Eaton, Dear Sir: 1t is
again that l take the pen in hand to
drop you few lines to inform you
of my health 1 am we'll at this time
present and I truly hope when these
few words reach your indesternated
hand that it will find you and your
family we'll and enjoying the very
best health and as l was telling you
in your first letter from me that l
was still trusting in the good Lord if
L never see you face to face IN TINS
world again 1 hope we shall see one
another face to face in heaven. 1
will call your attention to this song
which is my favorfte hymn, Il
know in whom I have redemption,
In whom / have believed, Whence
comes peace that passeth knowledge,
That saving grace received" Here is
the chorus: "'Tis nothing that I've
done can merit it. This love that
Christ for me has shown. He sought
me when 1 was.a stranger, In love
redeemed me for his own"
This is all for this time present. 1
will come to close GOOD Dye
from friend,
/ ANDREW JORDEN.
The religious fervor which seized
Pie shortly after his confinement In
the county Jail awaiting trial seems to-
have chung to him dispelling the be-
lief that it was a stall for sympathy.
Still in spite of evident good inten-
lions that "indesternated" hand is
about as bad as has been said about
Eaton.

AN OBJECT LESSON
 IN VALLEY REALTY
The Fact That Lots of People Are Selling Proves That Lots of
 People Are Buying.

A. c. Gaylord has just bought the Jake Snyder ranch on rural route No. 2. The particular interest in this Is in respect of the general conduct of Mir. Gaylord. rather than the purchase Of this particular ranch. for. like all most every deal in this valley, it teaches a lesson.
 There is SO much buying and selling going on here that it surprises a stranger sometimes. He is apt to think that everybody is selling out. to leave the country. without stopping to observe on the other hand that every body is buying into the country. Peo- pie are selling everything because the buyers recognize the bargains. It is selling things that makes business. In a community where there is nothing for sale there can be no business, ex- cept for the undertaken.
 Reverting to Mir. Gaylord. he came to this valley about seven years ago and bought a ranch northwest of the city. The next year he sold it. not because he was sick of his bargain. but because he got good offer. He did not leave the country. but bought another ranch. and the next year sold that and reinvested. He has lived here now seven years and has just bought his seventh ranch. and he did not sell any one of them merely for fun or to keep the abstracters busy. He made a neat little turn every time. He is willing to make a profit, let go and give the next man a bite at the apple, and then take a new bite him self
 Another remarkable thing is that Mir Gaylord is mighty well pleased with that particular part of the val ley Five of the ranches that he has owned face a particular road or sec ton line and comprise the one mile frontage on that road of the entire section. The other two ranches face the same road on the other side Though he still has but one ranch he has owned within the seven years all the property on one side of the road and about half of it on the other side The reporter did not learn who own: the rest of it now, but who ever it is he may just as well get ready to sell for Mir. Gaylord is coming at the same old pace and has no notion of beinl ditched as long as this valley looks a: good to him as it does now.
