DEATH OF A NOTED REDSKIN
Geronimo, the Apache Chief, Passes
Away at Fort Sill, okIa.-Was
SO Years Of AGE.

Lawton, Okla Feb. lS.-Geronimo
the noted Indian chief, died yester.
day at Fort Sill, where he had been
prisoner Of war for a number Of
years. He was SO years old.
II is curious coincidence that
news OF Geronimos death was sent
oat from Lawton, which was named
after the late Mai. Gen. Henry f.
LawtOn. who, as lieutenant in Gen.
Miles command. led the 3,OOO-mile
chase that resulted in the Apache
chiefs surrender. The chase was be.
gun In January, 1885, but the capture
OF Geronimo and his band was not
made until nearly two years later.
IL was declared at the time of his
capture that he had more murders TO
his credit than any living Indian. He
volunteered to head band OF Apache
scouts during the Spanish American
war, but his offer was declined. How
ever. he was allowed to attend the st.
Louis exposition, and his last public
appearance was at President Roose-
velt's Inauguration, when he rode In
the parade with five other Indian
chiefs.

tion, which pays $4,000 a year. But I

CAN FINISH BY JUNE is.
SPECIAL SESSION OF CONGRESS
WILL Be SHORT.
senstor.Elect Burton confers with
Judge Taft and Puts In a Good
Word for Herrick.

Washington, Feb. 1s.--It developed
yesterday at a conference between
President-elect Taft and Senators
Knox and Hale and Speaker Cannon
that these congressional leaders be.
lieve that the work of the special SEES
sion Of congress to be called March
Is can be finished between June /
and 10. This situation may be
changed, however, by the failure Of
any Of the appropriation bills to pass
at the present regular session.
Mr.. Taft, II is stated, regards the
outlook for satisfactory tariff legisla.
tion as good.
What Mr.. Taft regards as an impor-
tant feature of his two days in Wash
ington we're the conversations he was
able to have with President Roose-
welt, Senator Knox and others re-
garding his inaugural address. A
copy OF the first draft OF this paper
has been in the possession of Sena-
tor Knox for some days and such sug.
gestions as he shall think proper to
make will be sent to Mr.. Taft at Gin.
cinnati. The presidents approval of
the speech is known to have been
most hearty.
What proved to be a very cordial
interview took place yesterday be-
tween the president-elect and Repre-
sentative Burton of Ohio. who has
been elected to succeed Senator For
aker. 1t was apparent that no scars
are left as a result of the recent sen
atorial campaign In Ohio. Mr.. Bur
ton made It known that he was
anxious to see Myron T. Herrick
made secretary of the treasury in the
Taft cabinet. In this connection It
may be stated that this place is still
open.
