NEW POLICY INAUGURATED.
Plans for Battleships Drawn in Ad-
vance of APPROXIMATION.

When Secretary Meyer set the seal OF
his approval upon plans for the two giant
battleships Nos. "a and 35. provided for
in the naval appropriation bill soon to
become a law, he inaugurated q new
policy In naval construction. Heretofore
it has been the practice to await an ap-
preparation before undertaking the prepa-
ration OF plans for naval vessels, with
the result that many months elapsed be-
fore the department was in position to
call for bids. In this case the work has
been practically all done in advance The
Naval War College prepared tho rough
outlines Of the ships; these were passed
around among some of the captains in
the navy for criticism. They were then
revised by the general board and placed
in the hands of the naval constructors.
Secretary Meyer paid special conpli
ment to the construction bureau for the
rapidity and thoroughness with which
they had done their work Details of the
vessels are withheld. but it is generally
stated that they Will be of $1,000 tons
and carry ten fotlr'een-inch guns, max
ing them more formidable than any snip
now afiOat.

GOES TO HIGHEST COURT.
Petition for Mandamus Filed by
Eastern Cherokee Indians.

A petition for mandamus to compel
the Court Of Claims to obey a mandate
of the highest court in the land was pre-
sented yesterday to the Supreme Court
Of the United States by counsel for the
eastern Cherokee Indians.
The action is the result of litigation in
stituted by the eastern Cherokees against
the Cherokee nation and the United
States. The Court OF Claims May last
directed the distribution of a fund of
$5.OO0,000 to all individual Cherokee In
dams by blood living May %, 1906, who
could establish their descent from MEM
bers of the Cherokee tribe of the date
of the treaties of 1886 and 1916
The petition for a writ sets forth that
the Court of Claims originally provided
for per stripes distribution. This was
sustained by the Supreme Court, which
ordered that the money be turned over
to the Secretary of the Interior for dis
tribution. Subsequently the Court of
Claims revoked it's former decree, re-
voked the authority OF the Secretary Of
the Interior and ordered per capita dis
tribution. Counsel for the Indians con-
tend that this is a violation Of the man
date OF the Supreme Court.

slider Jandt Case.

Supreme Court of the United States in
the Jandt case. general attorneys from
a score Of big railroads probably will
ask the court Tuesday to reconsider
it's conclusion. In the Jandt case.

held that certain freight cars engaged
in interstate commerce We're liable to
attachment proceedings In states other
than that in which the common carrier

Justice McKenna said in his opinion
that the law laid down was applicable
