about the activity Of McMurraN
agents, he related that he had been
approached by George W. scott act
ing for McMurray and had been in
duced to sign a telegram the wording
of which he himself had not dictated,
this being a telegram addressed to
Richard C. Adams, Of Washington,
an attorney and Il Delaware Indian.
The substance of that telegram was
that the Indians approved of the con-
tracts and asked Adams to call on
President Taft and urge him to sell
the land without delay.

with powerful influence who could go
to the president and congress and
tell them what he wanted. We were
not SO anxious to give up 10 per
cent. but we thought it would be bet

get anything at all. We were in the

ington, but we thought Adams would
be able to fix things all right
More of the 10000 Indians who
signed the contracts are to be inter
rogated tomorrow.

ana advising him that if necessary
will be glad to go before the commit

ter.
There is some foundation for The

have stated the case in an entirely
different manner than 1t was given
To him by McMurray.
Before leaving Muskogee n No
vember, | tried 70 trade certain prop
erty for eighty acres OF farm land
worth 10000. agreeing to pay the
difference, which amounted to $4,000.

In December, afer my arrival at
Washington. | received a letter from
Guthrie, denving my request Mr..
McMurray happened To be in my Of
flee at his time and | explained the
situation t. him and asked him If he
knew where ] could get the money.
He replied that if he had the money
on hand he would be glad to make the
loan himself
"a few days later McNIurray told
me that he had the necessary money
and could make the loan but ques-
toned the proprietary of our entering
into deal of this kind. This WAS the
first time that tlr matter was srolght
10 my attention in tha. light and 1t
was dropped then and there. Mr..
McMurray never loaned ME the
