WARRANTS OUT FOR THREE OF THEM IN GRAFT PRO-
 cEepINos.
ARRESTS ARE A SURPRISE
Frank B. Hartman, Charles L. Ewino and John M. Taylor Are Charged With Obtaining Money Under
 False Pretenses.

Chicago, Aug. 20-Three warrants were sworn out in Judge Bruggemey- CTS court for former officials of the Illinois Central. charging conspiracy to obtain money under false pre- lenses
 The men accused are Frank B. liar. riman, Charles l.. Ewing and John M Taylor.
 Frank B. Hartman was former gen. eral manager of the Illinois Central railroad and assistant to President HarahAn. Ewing was former general superintendent of the road and until now was not mentioned as a party 70 the graft charges. Taylor was former general storekeeper of the road.
 Additional Warrant for Taylor.
 Taylor was made the subject of an additional warrant charging him with conspirins to defraud the railroad out of money. Everybody had been sworn to secrecy until tho warrants had been served The object was to pre- vent any of the men named from get ting any ad Jance information. Frank B. Hartman had just returned to the city from an automobile trip of sev- sral days.
 When the warrants were given to Sergeant William Reid he was in structed to take the prisoners to the Harrison street station. and Judge Bruggemeyer waited for them.
 The warrants were sworn out upon information by J. Smith an operative of the Burns & Sheridan detective agency, which has been Investigating the car repair graft for President liar ahan of the railroad
 Men Named Are Surprised.
 The news of the warrants came IS named, and also those who have been following the case.
 Surprise was expressed that these three men alone should have been made~ the subject of the warrants, while several others equally promi- nent in the discussion of the investi- gation have not been attacked. This led to the theory that other warrants may follow within short time.
 One of the officials of the Illinois Central who would not permit nls name to be used in commenting on the warrants, said:
 We will perhaps convince MT. Burry, Ira c. Rawn's attorney, that he was wrong when he said the llli- nois Central railroad was afraid to start anything in the nature of crim- inal proceedings.

As q result of this error the exhumation of the body may be ordered by Coro- ner Entz. The coroner discussed the adyisability of this step with c. E. Rugh, county attorney, who from the first wanted a post-mortem.
 Elimination May bs Ordered.
 There is doubt In the minds of the authorities as to whether the condi- lion of the stomach five or six days after death and embalming would be such as to permit an examination that would be worth while. If they were satisfied on this point, exhumation would be ordered at once.
 After the inquest had been ad- journed late in the evening. to be~re- sumed at S:30 o'clock Monday morn ing County Attorney Rugh said: Tt is the most completely baffiing crim- inal case l ever have encountered. It is a mass of intangibilities. mystify- ing and contradictory"
 A reward of $i00 Is offered for the solution of the mystery. Gov, Stubbs is expected to add to this as soon as he returns from Colorado, and 1t IS likely s1,000 will be offered for the capture of the guilty person.

CHAIRMAN BURKE OF CORE IN. QUIRY coMMITTEE MAKES
 A DISCOVERY.
NAME DAWES COMMISSION
Methods of Admission to Tribal Rolls Would Keep Out Thousands of Deserving Redmen-Secret
 Report Is Filed.

Washington, Aug. 20.-A trump card, it is learned, is in the hands of Chairman Charles Henry Burke, South Dakota, of the house commit tee now Investigating the Senator Gore charges, which involve lands worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
 This card is sensational. unpub- lished report made by an expert of the interior department. J. H. Howell. on conditions surrounding the make up of the citizenship rolls" of tho Five Civilized Tribes. There is great interest among those on the inside" as to whether Burke will ever play the trump.
 The report was made after per sonal investigation of methods" ob- taining in Oklahoma for admitting as citizens the Indians of the Five Civil ised Tribes, making them participants in the great land jackpot" the re- mainder of which some day is to be divided among them, and the methods of those already admitted and thelr counsel ito keep the others out"
 Dawes Commission Named.
 Howell, it is learned, asserted that ridiculous limitations as to time were placed on the Dawes Commission which adjudicated the Indian claims. This rendered an adequate considera- ton of each Indian case impossible.
 He showed how congress further legislated to restrict the membership of the rolls and gave it as hearsay that a mem Der of the Dawes Commis- sion recommended the passage of the law restricting the membership.
 Howell produced evidence of fia- grant cases of the utter disregard 0. the rights of the Indians claims for citizenship.
 Seven hundred and forty-one cases were presented by Howell as worthy of admission, or at least further inves- tigation.
 He presented to tho commission in- formation concerning the activity of Mansfield, McMurray & Cornish, the Oklahoma attorneys involved in the Gore charges. in keeping the rolls closed against as many Indians as possible.
 They entered into a contingent contract" said Howell, "at fee of nine per cent of the total value or each allotment which they might de feat.
 Fee Would Have Been $1,500,000.
 That contract was predicated on the theory that an allotment was worth s4.S00 l have heard it stated that they would have received about sl.500,000 on that contract, if they had received the full amount. The citizenship court allotted them $75O.- 000"
 Before the house committee, How ell testified:
 Il filed my report with Garfield on March 3, 1909, and he went out of office on March 4 He did not take any action, but wrote letter stating that I had filed my report and that 1t would be on file in the department, subject to the inspection of the com mittee at any time they wished to see it."
 It was shown that since then copy of the report was put in Burkes hands. At the interior department II is filed as "confidential' and is not available to the public.
