by long distance telephone with Mrs

alre shoemaker, giving her version OF
the sensational raid on the fashion
able Beach street gambling club In

ing.
Mrs. Hanan Is a noted beauty and
owns the splendid estate called Shore
Acres. Her interview follows:
"Ohi Oh-the what? Raid? Gracious,
no! They don't call It that. do they?
Well. It was so funny. Really. 1t was
quite a frost all the way through. II
was such a failure that 1t lacked even
the thrills that go with ordinary sur
prises. And poor little Mr. Cross! How
disappointed he must be. The young

since he was a midget boy-sought to
jump into the public eye and he SIM
ply failed. that's all.
Il wouldn't have missed II for any
thing. though. II was fair sort OF en-
tertainment. but oh. so farcical. Really
little Johnny could have made II quite

part a little better. People up here do

club when he thought he could catch

us lounglng and chatting about on d.
vans and at tables. after big supper
and an evening at the Casino. It's just

Asked to tell just what occurred
when Constable Cross entered the pa
villon. Mrs. Hanan continued:
After the evening at dance at the
Casino. which closed at IL o'clock. the
members of the exclusive cottage col
ony repaired to the club for de luxe
supper. The supper over. they went to
the playing rooms. Just on the dining
rooms-the same way they have them

I'VE had hardly seated ourselves at

and others TO join In the play. when
the doors swung open and there he

had been dignlfed and orderly, and
those OF us not playing were enjoying

done for years. harming no one.
Then several Of the gentlemen left
their tables and rushed over to Cross.
The ladies'. among them Mrs Robert

HamOn'o Testimony Attacked.

Jacob L. Holman again figured mo-
mentarily in the testimony. He had
been charged by Senator Gore with
having offered a $4,000 bride In Nc
Murray's behalf but in his own testi-
mony said he went to Washington con-
corning Governor Haskell's Indictment
in the Muskogee town lot cases and
had nothing to do with McMnrray.
c. B. Stewart testified he was att
torney for Governor Haskell and he
had not heard of lannon's being so
employed.
AS indicated by Green McCurtain,
chief of $4,000 Choctaws, and by Holl-
man, the Indians have taken the posi-
ton that they signed the contracts be-
cause they had become discouraged
with what they call the hardness OF
The government in disposing Of the
land and giving them the proceeds 80
that they might purchase farm imple-
ments and improve the allotments on
which they live
The mineral wealth Of the extra land
was estimated by the United States
geological survey at 100000, 900. One
old Indian. who favored the 10 per
cent McMurray contracts, said:
Are you going to let us starve Just
because we have agreed 10 give a
white man a piece of our ple?"

McMurray Makes Reply.

In a statement to the committee and
without going on the stand McMur

TO him originally against his desires.
He said the Indians al a war coun
cir had demonstrated their impa-
thence at the governments alleged
slowness in the selling OF the land
and had called upon him TO take the
job at 10 per cent. which he did with
reluctance. McMurray will 20 on the
stand later
Questioned further. HOLMAN testi'
fed it was the belief of the Indians
that their property was worth from
$50 .O00.00 to $40.O00.000. and the I'M
Outstanding was McMurray was to get
10 per cent Of this.

the answer
Did you think McMurray was a ma
