COMMERCE COURT CASES
Long Standing Dispute Between the
Freedmen and Indians In the
Cherokee Nation to be
Settled.

Washington, Jan. S-When the Su.
preme court resumed its labors after
the holiday recess today it was to
hear some Of the most important of
the nine hundred and more case en-
tered upon the docket of the present
term The cases of most general in.
terest now before the court-the So
called railroad rates cases from sew.
eral states of the Union-have been
postponed until Feb. IA, when, it is
expected, the president will have filled
the vacancy on the bench created by
the death of Justice Harlan. At the
same time the appeals from the recent
decisions of the commerce court, nullt-
flying orders Of the interstate COM
merce commission, will be heard by
the full bench.
The cases assigned for hearing at
once, however, involve important
points and are of particular interest
to the government. Several of these
grow out of efforts to set aside orders
of the interstate commerce commits
sion, two of them being appeals from
decisions of the commerce court up
holding the commissions orders. In
these two latter cases. however. the
decisions were unfavorable to the
shippers. In the commerce court
cases to be heard later the railroads
were also the successful contestant

court set for today is the result of the

The longstanding controversy wheth.
er or not the freedmen and free col

should participate in the distribution
of the money and lands belonging to
the nation comes up for final adjudi-
cation. The controversy began in 1883
and the Dawes commission and sew
eral other commissions attempted in
vain to settle the matter.
Two cases. one from Oklahoma and
the other from Minnesota. involve the
validity of laws of these two states
imposing certain license taxes upon
express companies. In the case OF
Oklahoma. the plea is made that the
treasury of the state is without funds
to pay current debts and that the
money to he collected under the. law.
If it is held constitutional, will supply
this deficiency.

Charles d'Autremont of the C. and A. Company Worries Over Mex
 icO Conditions
AT CHIHUAHUA MINES

Charles d'Autremont. one of the of fcials of the Calumet and Arizona company who resides al Duluth but is well known ;a BisDee and all through southern ATizona is reported to be somewhat alarmed for the safe " of his son who went 10 Mexico before the insurrectionary troubles became acute. according 10 advise that has been received in Duluth. Mir and Mrs. dAutremont are now in Washington and the following article was published in the Duluth Herald of March ,:
 WASHINGTON March 4-(Special to The Herald. l-Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Autremont of Duluth who are slending several weeks in Washing ton. are concerned about the safety Of their son Maurice, who has been in the mountains Of the state of Chihua- hua. Mex. for the last two months.
 The young man went to Mexico to inspect some mining properties in which his father is interested, and soon after he entered the country there was an uprising of Gaqui ln- diGns. That he was fully advised Of the uprising is indicated in a letter to Mrs. d'Autremont, received here about two weeks ago. in which the young man said that he was accompanied by a Pima Indian. a Mexican and a cowboy. and did not fear the Gaquis. A telegram was also received from the young man about week ago, saying he expected to be out in about a fortnight.
 The spread of the instruction in Mexico has excited the fears of young d'Autremont's parents, and they made an appeal to the state depart ment, but found the American govern ment helpless. The state department is advised that the Mexican govern ment has only some Pima Indians available to suppress the GaQut up rising, but that the Pimas have been unable to take the field owing to the lack of arms. NIT. and Mrs. d'Autre- r.ont realize that neither the Amer. ican nor Mexican government can do anything to aid their son and are hoping that they will soon hear of his safe arrival across the border.

 The school schedule has been SO arranged that those of the school children who have not trachoma will not be thrown into contact with those who have it. Those who have it are allowed to arrive at school ten minutes late and their recess an1 noon hours have been set back so that they will not conflict with the recreation hours of those who are free Of trachoma
