Sab Chen Ping, in command of the Chi
nese warships. ordered men landed to
support General Chang Piao, formerly
commander of the troops of the Wu-
Chang district, who had assumed com
mand of the imperial troops. The
rebels had anticipated this move by
the fleet and directed a hot fire on the
warships and the landing parties from
the Wu-Chang bank of the river
Admiral Sab in turn ordered the
warships to fire on the rebel field
pieces, and for a time shells fell thick
among the rebel gunners The war
ship officers, however, were seriously
handicapped by the danger Of the for
eign concessions involved in their fire
Two foreign newspaper correspond
ents narrowly escaped with their lives
They had been cruising on the river
in expectation of the battle and their
launch had reached a point opposite
the imperial camp when the hostilities
began Presently they found their
craft alongside Admiral Sah's flagship
and between the fire of the two forces.
From that spot the correspondents
witnessed the fighting until Admiral
Sab, observing the danger of their posi-
ton, ordered them out of the firing line.
The launch and it's crew withdrew and
as they did so they were fired on by
men who had been landed from the
warships. Fortunately comrades of
their assailants interfered, the shoot
ing ceased and the correspondents es-
capped unhurt.
The engagement continued several
hours, while the combined land and
ship forces of the imperialists were
driven some distance back and the
rebels, retiring, recrossed the river to
Wu-Chang.

BANKERS OBJECT TO
HITCHCOCK RULES

Guthrie, Okla, Oct 19.-The national
bankers of the west, in particular, it is
learned, do not like Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchock's regulations governing
the deposit in national banks Of pos
tai saving banks funds. A number of
them in this state, as well as in other
states, are trying even now to back up
on the contracts whereby they secured
such deposits. They claim it is too ex-
pensiye a proposition for them.
In the first place the banker must
pay 215 per cent interest for the pos
tai bank deposits, and in order to get
them he must put up nothing else than
government bonds. Mr.. Hitchcock
will accept no other kind of security.
At the present time the 2 per cent
government bonds cost him per cent.
In the smaller towns that have pos
tai savings banks, it may take some
time for the total deposits from that
source to run up to $4,000, yet Mr.,
Hitchcock will accept, in no instance,
no bond of less than $4,000. The bank
er, there, must pay interest on his Sc
curity which is of greater amount than
the money that he gets on deposit frcm
the postal savings banks.
The western banks, in particular,
are anxious to get government money
at the present time, for they are find
ing a ready market for it Immediately.
1t was thought by the bankers that
they could get the postal banks de-
posits on terms that would pay them
to handle it. They are offering as
high as 51a per cent for other govern
ment funds in lots of $4,000 and more,
and a considerable amount of Indian
funds are consequently coming to the
banks of this state The postal saw
ings, however, they declare is too un-
certain and too expensive.

ALONG TAFT ROUTE

San Francisco Cal, Oct. IA re-
port received by officials of the South
ern Railway company from c. B.
Brown, section foreman for the road
at Naples, CAL gave details of the dis
covery of thirty-six sticks of dynamite
under the Cairtan viaduct, twenty
miles north of Santa Barbara, several
hours before President Tafts special
train passed over the bridge on the
way to Los Angeles this morning. The

dered to halt. The watchman hurried
across the bridge, firing several shots.
The pair fired in return.

ness, the watchman returned to the
bridge and began an investigation.
Near the center of the span, lodged on
one of the supports of the viaduct, he
found the thirty-six sticks of dynamite
with a 1O-foot fuse attached to one of
the sticks. He left them Vi touched,
went Immediately to Santa Barbara
and notified the officials. Sheriff wines

HASTINGS EXPLAINS DELAY
IN TOO-LATE BABY CASE

Washington, d. c., Oct. 18.-There
are so many inquiries about the status
of the newborn baby case, and the rea-
sons for the delay in this case, that
beg permission to make explanation
through your paper. Section 2 of the
act of April 26, 1906, providing for the
enrolment of minor Cherokee children
born up to and living on March 4, 1906,
was enacted by congress upon the Pc
tition of the accredited representatives
of the Nation, as instructed by a joint
resolution of the Cherokee national
council.
On January %, 1907, Boudinot, Gritts
and Muskrat instituted a suit in the
supreme court of the District of Co
lumbia to enjoin the secretary of the
interior from carrying into effect the
provisions of the above act, claiming
that the same was unconstitutional.
At the same time these plaintiffs petit
toned congress for permission to
bring the same kind of suit in the
court of claims, with the right of ap-
peal to the supreme court, and an
amendment was added to theIndian ap-
preparation bill approved March 1, 1907,
comforting jurisdiction upon the court
of claims to test the cOnstitutionality
of this act; and this provision also pro-
yided for compensation to attorneys
employed by the plaintiffs to be paid
out of the tribal funds in the event
said act was declared unconstitutional
Plaintiffs dismissed their suit in the
supreme court of the district and in
stituted a suit in the court of claims.
and after about a year consumed in
taking testimony, briefing and arguing
the case the court of claims in Janu-
aTy 1909 held that the act was con-
stitutional and that the minor child
ren were entitled to be enrolled for
allotment. Plaintiffs appealed their
case to the supreme court of the Unit
ed States, and the supreme court in
February, 1911, hello. that congress had
no constitutional right to refer consti-
tutional questions to the court to be
adjudicated, and therefore refused to
pass upon the merits Of the contro-
yersy, holding that the case before
them involved a moot question. Plain
tiffs then reinstated their suit in the
supreme court of the District of Co
lumbia On May 8, 1911, Justice Stat
ford held the act to be constitutional
and the children entitled to he enroll
ed. Plaintiffs appealed to the court
of appeals of the District of Columbia
The case was argued and submitted to
the court of appeals on Monday, Oc-
tober 8, 1911, and a decision is ex-
pected from that court within the next
thirty days An appeal will then lie
to the supreme court of the United
states.

JUDGE TURNER OPPOSES
CERTAIN INJUNCTIONS

Oklahoma City, Oct 1S.-That a
temporary injunction never should be
granted because of apprehension of the
petitioner that injury may be done, is
the holding of the supreme court yes.
terday in an opinion by Chief Justice
Turner in the case of the city of
Woodward ct al against John Raynor.
The opinion holds that where an in.
junction is granted, based upon such
grounds, it will be reversed on appeal.
Judge r II. Loofburrow, in the dis.
trict court Of Woodward county, issued
a temporary injunction upon applica-
ton of Raynor, to restrain the city
from issuing bonds to the amount of
$4,000 for the establishment of an
electric light plant to be owned and
controlled by the city Raynor alleged
that the ballot title used at the elee
tion when the bonds were voted, did
not sufficiently inform the voter as to
the nature of the proposed issue and
also alleged that the city had given the
Woodward Cotton company franchise
to furnish ten arc lights for street
lighting purposes for period of
twenty years and that the city intend
ed to use the proposed municipal plant
only for the purpose of selling to pri-
vate persons at a profit, and not for
public purposes.
The court reverses the action of
Judge Loofburrow in granting Raynor
the temporary injunction and holds
that Raynor did not state facts in his
petition sufficient to show that the
city intended to establish only "mer-
camille" electric light plant, but merely
expressed fear that such was the in
tention of the municipal authorities
The court also holds that the ballot
title sufficiently apprised the voter Of
the kind of a public utility proposed
by stating that the purpose Of the bond
issue was to establish "an electric
light plant, to be owned exclusively
by the city,

COURT ASKS FOR
ANOTHER JUDGE
Case is One ef Most important Now
Pending in the Supreme Court
Affecting Guarantee Fund.

Oklahoma City, Oct. 49, - The SUI
preme court has instructed Clerk w.
H. l.. Campbell TO request Governor
Cruce TO appoint a special Judge in
place of James A. Gordon, who was ap-
pointed to serve in the place of JUS
tice Samuel Hayes, disqualified to sit
in the case of the Columbia Bank and
Trust company VS.. the United States
Fidelity and Guarantee company. The
order states that Gordon also is dis
qualified and the governor was so noti-
fed by the court June 27, 1911.
Although the Columbia Bank and
Trust company is the nominal appel
liant in the case, A. NJ. Young, state
bank commissioner in 1909, took up the
case, appealing from the decision of
the district court of Oklahoma county
The district court had held that the
deposit of the school land department.
amounting to more than $50,000 which
was held in the bank at the time of
its failure, must be repaid to the state
out of the guarantee fund before the
bank commissioner attempted to rein-
buse that fund from the assets. It was
held that the deposit was not a first
claim against the $4,000 surety bond
given the state by the United States
Fidelity and Guarantee company to Sc
cure the deposits ofsschool money.
The lower court held that the school
land deposit should rank on par with
deposits made by individuals and
should be paid on a pro rata basis until
the guarantee fund was exhausted, and
that the surety company could be held
liable only for the amount left unpaid
after the guaranty fund was exhausted
upon this basis
The case is one of the most impor-
tant now pending in the supreme court,
as affecting the guaranty fund It viii
settle the much discussed question as
to whether all deposits made by the
state in guaranteed banks shall be pro
tected by the guaranty fund, or wheth
er surety companies must be solely re
sponsible on their bonds for these de,
posits in case of loss for failure of a
state bank.
The supreme court adjourned yes
terday out of respect to the memeorv
of the late Justice Harlan of the United
States supreme court.

A Little Wcrk of His Own.

Several days ago ~ M, Smith, JUS
tice of the peace, took it upon him
self to do a little work in the way of
enforcing the prohibitory law of the
state. He wrote to the attorney gen
eral asking if man could have a gal
Ion of whiskey shipped to him every
day or two or three gallons at a time.
The attorney general answered that if
a man got more than one gallon
week it showed that he was undoubt-
edly a bootlegger, and that the booze
so shipped in should be broken. Mr..
Smith Immediately notified Deputy
Sheriff McSpadden to break all that
came in, except to allow man gal
Ion a week. Since then Mr. McSpad-
den has spilled a lot of the bug juice,
much to the sorrow of some who have
been getting in several gallons a week
Such tactics are to be commended and
will go a long way towards stopping
the booze peddlipg in the state.-Chel-
