WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 23.-
The so-called- tax cases we're argued
in the house today. The two cases
affecting the Choctaw and Chickasaw
Indians, were consolidated with the
Creek case, known as the Bessie
Brown English VS.. II. r. Richardson,
county treasurer of Tulsa county
Okla. In these cases is involved the
right of the state of Oklahoma to tax
land allotted TO a certai nciass Of In
dian citizens.
These ar etest cases and upon the
decision in these cases will depend the
right of the state to tax millions of
acres of land belonging to mixed blood
Indians of the Five Civilized Tribes
This land was exempt from taxation
by treaty agreement between the In
dans and the United States for a Pc
riod of twenty-one years
The Indians claim that this eXemp-
ton is a property right, and that the
act of congress of May 81, 1908,
which attempted to make the land
taxable. is unconstitutional.
The state OF Oklahoma was repre-
sented by Attorney General Charles

QUESTION TO BE Settled Is III
klNiMEL WE'RE ALIVE WHEN
SUIT WAS FILED.
NO Chance OF LEGAL Death
llcsitates upon Entering Court Room
20 Resume Testimony But
Few Questions Asked Him.

sT. LOUIS, Feb 23.-The man
known as Andrew J. White, who is
the claimant In The famous Kimmel
insurance case, finished the climax
In a dramatic situation today when
he swore on the witness stand that
he Is George A. Klmmel whose mys-
torious disappearance from Arkansas
CITY KAN, gave rise TO the present
controversy.
What Is your name?" was the
first question asked the claimant by
counsel for the insurance company
of New York, which is being sued for
recovery Of $1,000 life insurance on
Klmmel's life.
George Alfred Kimmel." said the
witness, taking care to pronounce
middle name distinctly.
Where were you born?y
Niles, Berrien county, Michigan"
When"
February 1, 1867"
Mrs Klmme had testified that
Georges birthday was on February
II.
Are you the brother of Edna KIM
mel Bonsett?n
Il am was the loudly enunciated
reply
Are you the son of Estelle kim
mel2"
cor j. Estelle Klmmel," said tho
witness, correcting the lawyer. and
when the question was put again he
answered, Il am"
THAT is all said Mcintosh. Take
the witness"
The brevity Of the direct examina-
ton had been expected. since Judee
Amidon told the lawyers the question
ut issue is whether kimmel was alive
when the suit was filed In 1904. AS
kimmel disappeared In July 1898, he
was not legally dead in 1904 seven
years absence being required to con-
stitute legal death In the absence of
evidence of physical death.
At the afternoon session, Harry Fox
and his wife. who had taken the
claimant to lunch had apparent dlf-
ficulty In getting him to re-enter
to resume his testimony. He hesltat-
ed at the door, and the whispered
argument with the Foxes and with a
private detective detailed by the in
surance company TO watch him, was
looked on with interest by people
along the corridors. The court room
was packed with spectators. a large
number of them being women.
In summoning the claimant to be-
gin his testimony at the morning ses-
sion, Attorney O'Brien called Mr..
Kimmel"
There was no answer and he said
"Georges' whereupon the man got up
and replied "here."
