Tulsa, Okla, May 30.--Practically
all arrangements have been closed for
pulling off the biggest wolf hunt ever
organized in eastern Oklahoma. The
roundup is to cover Tulsa and Creek
counties from the Arkansas river on
the north to the lower edge of the
Glenn Pool oil field on the south and
from Turkey mountain on the east to
the eighteen mile prairie south of the
Cimarron river on the west.
In spite of the rapid settlement of
the country by reason of the oil and
gas development and farm settlement,
wolves are said to be steadily on the
increase until the loss reported by
farmers by the ravages of the varmits
have assumed alarming proportions.
Not only has domestic stock suffered,
but deer, wild turkey and quail have
been preyed and feasted upon by the
tiendish animals.
"A small bounty on wolves for the
past two years has tended to interest
"a few hunters in their destruction,
but the number of wolves and coyotes
show no effect of the warfare made
upon them.
Aroused to the necessity of cleaning
out the 'varmits," farmers, game
wardens and sportsmen of the oil
field district thirty days ago began
arrangements for a grand roundup,
which is to be pulled off in a three
days affair, June 1, and 8, on the
big prairies near New Teneha, half
way between Tulsa and Sapulpa.
The new Taneha club, which has a
$4,000 club house and large tract of
land now being fitted with lake and
golf links, has voluntarily thrown
open its club house for the accom-
mediation Of the hundreds who will
participate in the chase, and Scout
Younger, nephew of Cole Younger,

Gregg, United States attorney for the
Eastern district Of Oklahoma. were
In consultation here practically all day
Friday The three men constitute the
government talent in the Muskogee
town lot cases and it is understood
that the conference was held for the
purpose Of reaching a decision re
garding the date of trial Of what has
come to be known as the Haskell
case.
Unofficially it is learned that an
agreement was reached to set the town
lot cases for trial at McAlester. Sep
tember 2S. The reason for this is
that it was found well nigh impossible
to secure a trial Judge at an earlier
date. and that it was felt the extreme
ly hot weather Of June and July would
have made Jury service unbearabie
hardship.
Judge Marshall had stated that he
would not return for the trial during
the summer. but that he could be
present at McAlester in September
The appropriateness Of Judge Mar
shall completing the case was 50 ap-
parent that the government counsel
agreed, 1t Is stated. on recommending
to the attorney general September Is
as the day for trial. and this official
announcement will doubtless be forth
coming in few days.

GLENN CURTISS

Little 6iplane Makes international
Sustained Speed Record in
Sunday Flight.

New York. May SO.-Glenn H. Cur

in 15z minutes, better time than any
limited on the New York Central ever
made, and limiteds don't loaf. He not
only won the $4,000 offered by the
New York World, but he made an in
ternational record for sustained speed.
There were times when his little BIZ
plane, which is only half as big as
Paulhan's famous flyer, split the air at
more than ty-miles-an-hour clip,
and his average speed was fifty-four
and eight-tenths miles an hour.
The winds were good to Curtis, and
no finer day for boarding space and
time could have been picked from the
calendar But once the mischieyous
air currents of the Highlands nearly
got him. The airs, warmed by an
eager sun, ran twisty ways up the

off into kinder airs and went on to
the finish steadily about her business.
There was never in this country
anything like Glenn Curtiss's achieve

he proved that 1t was possible for an
aviator to say: Il am going to start
here and | am going to finish there"
to fly from one town to another as
certainly as man may proceed in an
automobile, with little danger to hear
Curtiss tell it But the Frenchman,
although he astonished the world by
flying from London to Manchester
1856 miles, took more than twelve hours
and he made two stops, while Curtiss
stopped once only, at CameIot, below
Poughkeepsie, before slapping Man

OLD CHEROKEE CASE
AGAIN BEFORE COURT

Washington, May 9O-After an ab-
sence of four years the famous Cher
okee Indian case, involving the dis
tribution Of more than $1,0OO,000 to
these wards of the nation, returned
today to the supreme court Of the Unit
ed States. Attorneys for Head Cap
tain John Mcintosh, Second Captain
Jim Hildebrand, Sam Boney and 9th
ers today asked the supreme court to
require the court Of claims to "obey"
the mandate Of the supreme court in
passing on the case four years ago.
At that time Attorneys Sullivan and
Dash claim the supreme court directed
the distribution of the funds by the
court of claims on a per stripes"
basis. It is now complained that the
court of claims directed the distribu-
tion on a per capita basis.
It is maintained by the attorneys
that the supreme court directed the
court of claims to have the secretary
of the interior prepare the roll of per-
sons entitled to participate in the
distribution. Instead of following
this mandate, it is claimed, a special
commissioners was appointed by the
court at a great expense to prepare
the roll. It is urged that this, too,
was disobedience to them and to the
supreme court, which is urged to en-
force it's decrNe.
